Graphical Abstract

An amazingly simple access by dissolving barium metal in tBuOH, addition of nBuLi, and crystallization from THF/hexane leads to the polyion aggregate 1. The novel polyhedral Ba₆Li₃O₂ core has a charge of 11⁺ and is surrounded by an ellipsoidal C₅₆H₁₂₃ hydrocarbon skin. Density functional calculations for a 33-center/460-electron model revealed that it is indeed a polyion aggregate, and that weak interactions exist between the two oxygen centers in the polyhedron. In the second communication the hydrocarbon ellipsoid of the polyion aggregate consists of 24 phenyl groups, and the interactions between them are analyzed.

One molecule benzene is 33% disordered; its main position was refined anisotropically and minor positions refined isotropically as idealized hexagons.

The storage limit of 252 atoms required the replacement of the phenyl groups by hydrogen, because the hexamer contains 324 centers. (a) The ab initio calculations started from the structural data and employed a “double zeta” basis set ( S. Huzinaga, J. Andzelm, M. Klobukowski, E. Radzio-Andzelm, Y. Sakai, H. Tatewaki, Gaussian Basis Sets for Molecular Orbital Calculations, Elsevier, Amsterdam, 1984).

A potential energy plot yielded two preferred positions for Na⁺ at the [O(HO)₂P-N′-P(OH)₂O]⁻ anion: in the center of the chelate pincer with Na1 ⃛O distances of 233 and 234 pm, and outside them with a distance of 228 pm between Na3 and each oxygen atom. The total energy differences amounted to −603 (Na1) and −462 kJ mol⁻¹ (Na3), and the charges to +0.94 (Na1) and +0.96 (Na3);

6 Based on the minimum of the Morse curve at R₀ = 3.848 and D₀ = −2.276[4c] variation yields a parameter α 2.7 for the optimum fit. Approximate distance-dependent interaction energies (kJ mol⁻¹) can thus be calculated: for 400 pm −8.09, for 500 pm −0.85, and for 600 pm −0.06.
