VIBRATIONAL SPECTROSCOPIC INVESTIGATION OF SOME HOFMANNTYPE CLATHRATES: M(4-PHENYLPYRIDINE)2Ni(CN)4.2G(M = Ni, Co AND Cd, G = 1,4-DIOXANE)

摘要

New Hofmann type clathrates in the form of M(4-Phpy)2Ni(CN)4.2G (where 4-Phpy = 4-phenylpyridine, G = 1,4-dioxane and M = Ni, Co and Cd) have been prepared in powder form and their FT-IR and Raman spectra have been reported. The results suggest that these compounds are similar in structure to the Hofmann type clathrates and their structures consist of polymeric layers of IM-Ni(CN)4, with the 4-Phpy bound to the metal (M) atom.
