Abstract
Four solvent complexes of beryllium iodide were prepared by dissolving BeI2 in N,N-dimethyl formamide (DMF), pyridine (Pyr), N-methyl pyrrolidone (NMP) and 2,6-dimethyl pyridine (2,6-lutidine, Lut). Their crystal structures were established from single crystal X-ray diffraction. For [Be(DMF)4]I2 a new modification is reported (monoclinic, space group P21/c, a = 12.491(2), b = 11.593(2), c = 15.310(3) Å, β = 94.7073(6)°). In [Be(Pyr)4]I2 (monoclinic, space group C2/c, a = 17.8799(13), b = 7.6174(5), c = 18.2611(14) Å, β = 113.508(4)°) and [Be(NMP)4]I2 (orthorhombic, space group Pbca, a = 13.941(5), b = 15.754(3), c = 24.634(7) Å) homoleptic tetrahedral complex cations are formed, while the sterically demanding solvent ligand Lut yields a neutral complex with covalently bound iodine ligands [BeI2(Lut)2] (monoclinic, space group P21/c, a = 7.8492(9), b = 24.265(3), c = 27.037(3) Å, β = 97.076(3)°). Their electrochemical stability with respect to their application as beryllium electrolytes for deposition of beryllium from solution is discussed.
