Vanadium (V) chloride chlorimide is a chemical compound containing vanadium in a +5 oxidation state bound to three chlorine atoms and with a double bond to a chlorimide group (=NCl). It has formula VNCl4. This can be also considered as a chloroiminato complex.[3]

Production[edit]

Vanadium(V) chloride chlorimide can be made by chlorinating vanadium nitride at 120°. Or chlorine azide can react with vanadium tetrachloride to yield it. Or more conveniently it can be made by heating vanadium tetrachloride with sodium azide and chlorine gas.[4]

Properties[edit]

The melting point of Vanadium(V) chloride chlorimide is 136 °C. It can be sublimed in a vacuum below its melting point. The density of the solid is 2.48.[5] The solid has a triclinic crystal structure with unit cell a=7.64, b=7.14, c=5.91 Å; α=112.4°, β=94.9°, γ=107.8° with Z=2 (formulas per unit cell).[6] The space group is P1.[7]

Vanadium(V) chloride chlorimide is molecular. In the gas phase the V to N bond length is 1.651 Å, V to Cl bond length is 2.138 Å, N to Cl bond length is 1.597 Å. The bond angles are ∠ClVCl 113.4°, VNCl 169.7 and ∠NVCl 106.0.[8]

In the solid form, the bond lengths are slightly different. V-Cl: 2.20, 2.30 and 2.38 Å, V=N bond is 1.64 Å long and N-Cl length is 1.59 Å. The VNC angle is 175.2°.[7]

Reactions[edit]

VCl3NCl can crystallise with antimony pentachloride. Phosphines and nitrogen bases can form complexes with the vanadium in this compound. (triphenyl phosphine, tributyl phosphine, pyridine, bipyridine). A reaction with ammonium chloride yields the [Cl5VNCl]2− ion.[9]
