Spectroscopic characterisation of indium(III) chloride and mixed ligand complexes.
Acidic solutions of InCl3 plus InBr3 contain mixed halide complexes and solvent extraction yields the four-coordinate anions InCl(n)Br(4 - n)-, whose v(In-Cl) and v(In-Br) modes are reported. Two solid products of InCl3 with 15-crown-5 have been identified; crystallisation from aqueous HCI gave a molecular adduct containing InCl3(H2O)2, whereas the ionic complex [InCl2(15-crown-5)][InCl4] was produced under anhydrous conditions. The vibrational spectra are assigned.
