The synthesis of ammine metal azides is achieved through a simple route in liquid ammonia solution. Azides of silver, sodium, manganese, and zinc were obtained as ammine complexes from liquid ammonia and the solid compounds were characterized. The NH 3 solutions were investigated by means of NMR spectroscopy as well. The triamminesilver(I) azide as well as the unusual tetraamminesilver(I)
796and pentaamminesodium(I) azides are presented. The structures of the hexaamminemanganese(II) and hexaamminezinc(II) azides, which crystallize with four ammonia molecules of solvation, are elucidated. From these compounds the binary azides Mn(N 3 ) 2 and Zn(N 3 ) 2 were obtained by (careful) heating.
Rubidium amide‐ammonia(3/2), RbNH2·2/3NH3, was synthesized from Rubidiumhydride, RbH, in liquid ammonia at −78 °C. The compound crystallizes in the cubic space group I213 with Z = 4, a = 10.0490(12) Å, and V = 1014.77(20) Å as isometric colorless crystals. The crystal structure was solved from single‐crystal X‐ray data. The structure contains a three‐dimensional network of amide anions and ammonia molecules, which are interconnected via hydrogen bonds.
