Non-aqueous solutions of alkaline-earth metal perchlorates M(ClO4)(2)
(M = Ba, Sr, Ca, Mg) have been investigated by IR and Raman spectrosco
py. The association of M(2+) and ClO4- into mononuclear species M(ClO4
)(x) (x = 1 or 2) depends on the cation and on the solvent. In a given
solvent the association extent decreases from Ba to Mg. In all cases
it has been possible to find at least one associating solvent (ester,
cyclic ether) where the association into M(ClO4)(2) is complete. In th
e associated species the coordination of ClO4 can be monodentate (C-3v
) or bidentate (C-2v). The monodentate coordination is the only mode i
n Mg(ClO4)(2) while bidentate coordination is predominent with the oth
er cations. In that case there is a minor proportion of monodentate Cl
O4 groups which decreases from Ca to Ba. The two kinds of coordination
are distinguished by the shift Delta v(1) of v(1) relative to free Cl
O4- which is either positive (monodentate) or negative (bidentate). Th
is criterion has been established by the investigation of the other vi
brational modes of ClO4. Wavenumber shifts and splittings have been co
rrelated to the cation polarizing power. Force constant variations cal
culated on BaClO4+ and LiClO4 are correctly interpreted by Lewis struc
tures.
