A Hydrogen Polyphosphide Salt of the First Homoleptic Strontium Ammine Complex:
Synthesis and Structure Analysis of (Sr(NH3)8)HP11•NH3.
-With regard to the synthesis and characterization of Zintl anion compounds and the isolation of the highly reactive HP2-11 anion, an ammino complex of Sr cations is shown to function as large noncoordinating cation in analogy to cryptand-encapsulated alkali metal cations. Single crystals of the title compound are prepared in liquid ammonia using an ion exchange resin loaded with Sr2+ and additional resin in the protonated form. The structure (orthorhombic, Pna21, Z = 4), determined by single-crystal XRD methods, consists of Sr(NH3)2+8 with Sr2+ in square antiprismatic coordination. The HP2-11 anion exhibits a trishomocubane-like cage structure.
