Preparation
WO2Cl2 is prepared by ligand redistribution reaction from tungsten trioxide and tungsten hexachloride:
- 2 WO3 + WCl6 → 3 WO2Cl2
Using a two-zone tube furnace, a vacuum-sealed tube containing these solids is heated to 350 °C. The yellow product sublimes to the cooler end of the reaction tube. No redox occurs in this process.[2] An alternative route highlights the oxophilicity of tungsten:[3]
- WCl6 + 2 ((CH3)3Si)2O → 3 WO2Cl2 + 4 (CH3)3SiCl
This reaction, like the preceding one, proceeds via the intermediacy of WOCl4.
Structure
Gaseous tungsten dichloride dioxide is a monomer.[4] Solid tungsten dichloride dioxide is a polymer consisting of distorted octahedral W centres. The polymer is characterized by two short W-O distances, typical for a multiple W-O bond, and two long W-O distances more typical of a single or dative W-O bond.[5]
Related oxy halides
Tungsten forms a number of oxyhalides including WOCl4, WOCl3, WOCl2. The corresponding bromides (WOBr4, WOBr3, WOBr2) are also known as is WO2I2.[6]
Reactions
WO2Cl2 is a Lewis acid, forming soluble adducts of the type WO2Cl2L2, where L is a donor ligand such as bipyridine and dimethoxyethane. Such complexes often cannot be prepared by depolymerization of the inorganic solid, but are generated in situ from WOCl4.[7]
