Abstract:
Cyanogen isocyanate (NC–NCO) has been prepared and studied using a combined experimental and theoretical approach. A crystalline film of the interpseudohalogen species was stabilized by vapor deposition on a cold substrate ( T = –100 °C). From IR spectroscopy on the “free” molecule, trapped in a matrix of solid argon, the connectivity and geometry of this unstable interpseudohalogen was deduced and substantiated by theoretical calculations. With this information, the crystal structure of NCNCO in the solid state could be analysed using powder X‐ray diffraction [ Pbca (No. 61), a = 7.63(1) Å, b = 6.50(2) Å, c = 6.03(6) Å; V = 299.5(1) Å 3 ]. The compound transforms into amorphous polymeric C 2 N 2 O at T 〉 –68 °C. The results obtained were compared with recent findings and further discussed in the general context of C–N–(O) chemistry.
