Phosphorus, Cage Compounds
The title compound (dmaaH)2 (dmaH)2 [Pi2 Si2 Ni 2 (NH)2 ] • 4 dmaa (1) was obtained by crys­
tallization from a saturated solution of anhydrous Pi 2 Si 2 Ns(NH ) 6 in N,N-dimethylacetamide
(dmaa) as large single crystals. According to the X-ray structure determination (P2\/n, a =
1421.8(1), b = 1556.5(2), c = 1645.8(1) pm, ß = 112.207(6)°, Z = 2, 6388 observed reflections,
R 1 = 0.046, wR2 = 0.111) the anionic cage is built up from twelve P 3 N 3 rings in boat confor­
mation. N,N-dimethylammonium ions (dmaH+) are directly connected to the cage, and pairs
of N,N-dimethylacetamidonium ions (dmaaH+) and N,N-dimethylacetamide molecules (dmaa)
are interconnected by hydrogen-bonds.
Introduction
In the course of a systematic investigation of
nitridophosphates we also focus on phosphorusnitrogen cage compounds as possible molecular
precursors for the synthesis of solid-state P/N
materials [1]. Adamantoid-type structures derived
from the tetrahedral P4 molecule are very com­
mon in phosphorus chemistry (e.g. P4 O6 , P4 S 1 0 ,
[P4 N 1 0 ] 10-) [2, 3], For several decades the potas­
sium salt K<5[Pi 2 S i 2N i 4 ] • 8 H 2 O was the only
known compound containing the unusual and highly
symmetric [Pi2 S i 2 N i 4 ]6~ cage (idealized symmetry
2/m3). Unlike all other known cages [P 1 2 S 1 2 N 1 4 ]6“
is exclusively made up from six-membered rings
in boat conformation [4]. Analogous [G a ^ O ^ ]
cages in [Gai 2 fB ui2(/X3 - 0 )8 (^ - 0 )2 (^ - 0 H)4] and
[Gai2(CH3)i2 0 8(OH)6](C24F2oB)2 • 2 C 6 H 5 C1 •
2 H 2 O have been identified as further isoelectronic representatives of this uncommon cage topol­
ogy [5, 6]. More recently we have obtained
P i 2 S , 2 N 8 (NH ) 6 • 14 H2 O, the corresponding molec­
ular acid of the potassium salt K ^ P ^ S ^ N ^ ] , as
well as the new salts L iö tP ^ S ^ N u ] • 26 H 2 O and
(NH 4 )6[Pi 2 Si 2 N i4] • 10 H20 [7]. All these com ­
pounds are water soluble and have been obtained
with a remarkable high content of crystal water.
In order to explore the thermolytic decomposi­
tion leading to possible new solid-state materials
as well as for further reactions involving the acidic
protons of the acid P ^ S n N g tN H ^ the preparation
of completely anhydrous derivatives seemed to be
desirable.
In this paper we report the synthesis and
crystal structure of an anhydrous P 12N 14 cage
compound (dmaaH)2 (dmaH)2 [Pi 2 Si 2 N i 2 (NH)2 ] • 4
dmaa. Concerning the acid-base properties the ti­
tle compound represents an intermediate between
the fully deprotonated anion [P ^S ^N m ]6- and the
molecular acid P i 2 Si 2 Ns(NH) 6 .
Experimental
Synthesis and characterization
Pi 2 Si 2 Ng(NH) 6 • 14 H20 (1) was synthesized accord­
ing to the literature [4]. An anhydrous starting material
was obtained by the reaction of the hydrate 1 (1.89 g) with
SOCI2 (> 99%, Fluka, 5 ml, 25 °C, argon atmosphere,
30 min) under evolution of HC1 and SO2 . Subsequently
the product was dried in vacuo at room temperature. The
yield was 98.1% (1.47 g) of anhydrous Pi2 Si2 N 8 (NH)6 .
After dissolving 14.2 mg of this product in 1 ml of N,Ndimethylacetamide (> 98%, Fluka) transparent colourless
crystals of (dmaaH)2 (dmaH)2 [Pi2 Si2 Ni 2 (NH)2 ] • 4 dmaa

Results
In the crystal structure of 1 cage-type anions
[Pi 2 S 12 N 12 (NH>2 ]4— were found (Fig. 1), which
are packed in a distorted body-centred arrange­
ment. The complex anion is made up from twelve
phosphorus atoms, which are tetrahedrally coor­
dinated by one sulfur and three nitrogen atoms.
Eight nitrogen atoms (denoted as N [3]) are ar­
ranged cube-like, and these are connecting three
neighbouring phosphorus atoms positioned above
the edges of the cube. The remaining six nitro­
gen atoms (denoted as N [2]) are located above the
faces of the cube, and they are bridging two neigh­
bouring phosphorus atoms. The cage anion is lo­
cated on a crystallographic inversion centre and
has the idealized symmetry 2/m3. Only two of the
N [2] bridges are protonated while the other four
carry a formally negative charge (Fig. 2). The bond
lengths P-N[2] ( « 160.5 pm) are significantly shorter
than the distances P-NH ( » 166 pm), and both

Crystal data for 1 were collected on a Siemens P4

tion. The structure was solved using direct methods and
refined by means of full-matrix least squares calculations
on F 2 using SHELXL97 [9]. All non-H atoms were re­
fined anisotropically. The hydrogen atoms of the methyl
groups were located geometrically, those connected to
O and N were determined by difference-Fourier analysis
and all of them were refined isotropically using a rid­
ing model. The atoms H41 and H42 connected to the

(169 up to 173 pm). The shorter ones belong to

cur in the P(S)N[3]2 N [2] tetrahedra. All N [3] atoms
in 1 show a planar coordination whereas the angle
P -N ^ -P is about 124°. A slightly larger deviation
from the ideal angle (120°) occurs at the N(H) atoms
(125°). The entire P 12N 14 cage is formed by twelve
P 3 N 3 rings in boat conformation (Fig. 2). The ob­
served distances and angles are comparable to those

Besides the cage anions the unit cell of 1
contains two N,N-dimethylacetamidonium ions
(dmaaH+) and two N,N-dimethylammonium ions
(dmaH+) as well as four N,N-dimethylacetamide
molecules (dmaa) as solvate. These species are
interconnected by N-H - O, O-H - O and N -H —N
hydrogen-bonds. The distances and angles of possi­
ble hydrogen-bonds were determined using the pro­
gram PARST97 (Table 3) [10]. The hydrogen-bond
lengths (X-H - X with X = O, N) range from 142
to 245 pm. There is a remarkably short hydrogenbond between a pair of one solvent molecule dmaa
and its protonated cation dmaaH+, the proton being
located between two oxygen atoms (Fig. 3). Fur­
ther hydrogen-bonds connect a solvate molecule
dmaa with the protonated nitrogen atoms N l of
the cage (178.6 pm) and the two different deprotonated nitrogen atoms N3 and N5 of separate cage
anions with H41 (192.0 pm) and H42 (249.2 pm)
of dmaH+ respectively (Fig. 4). The latter weak FIbond is distorted with an angle of 125° because of
the tetrahedral surrounding of N41. In the crystal
there are layers of P 12N 14 cages and dmaH+ cations
connected through hydrogen-bonds parallel [0 1 0 ].
These layers are separated by the dmaa molecules
and the pairs dmaa/dmaaH+.
The formation of dmaH+ and dmaaH+ ions in the
reaction of dmaa with HCl have been described in
the literature [ 1 1 , 1 2 ].

responsible for the cleavage of acetamide and the
subsequent formation of Me 2 NH 2 + according to
eq. (1). Possibly both hydrogen chloride and the
acid P i 2 Si 2 N 8(NH )6 are involved in the cleavage
reaction. With the transfer of four protons the pro­
tonation capability of P ^S ^ N g (NH )6 appears to be
exhausted, and thus further dmaa molecules were
incorporated unprotonated in the crystal.
The IR-spectra are also indicative of a protonation
of dmaa: The band at 3410 cm - 1 is typical for O-H
groups and the absorption at 2854 cm - 1 could be
assigned to the dimethylammmonium ion.
