In the crystal structure of the title compound, (C5H6ClN2)[Cr(C2O4)2(H2O)2]·1.5H2O, the CrIII atom adopts a distorted octahedral geometry being coordinated by two O atoms of two cis water molecules and four O atoms from two chelating oxalate dianions. The cis-diaquadioxalatochromate(III) anions, 2-amino-5-chloropyridinium cations and uncoordinated water molecules are linked into a three-dimensional supramolecular array by O—H...O and N—H...O hydrogen-bonding interactions. One of the two independent lattice water molecules is situated on a twofold rotation axis.

Two new bimetallic complexes [Zn(phen)3][Fe(CN)5(NO)] · 2 H2O · 0.25 MeOH, (1) and [(bipy)2(H2O)Zn(μ-NC)Fe(CN)4(NO)] · 0.5 H2O, (2), have been isolated (where phen = 1,10-phenanthroline and bipy = bipyridyl) and characterised by X-ray crystallography [as the 2 H2O · 0.25 CH3OH solvate for (1) and hemihydrate for (2)] infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis. Substitution of phenanthroline for bipyridyl resulted in a cyano-bridged bimetallic species rather than two discrete mononuclear metal complexes. The bond angles of Fe-N-O were shown to be practically linear for both 1 [179.2(7)°] and 2 [178.3(3)°], and the Zn atoms have distorted octahedral geometry. The solvent molecules in both crystal lattices take part in forming hydrogen-bonded networks.

The compound cis-Hg(SCN)2(Phen)2 belongs to the triclinic space group [Formula: see text] with a = 13.252(5), b = 11.077(4), c = 8.443(3) Å, α = 105.20(3), β = 83.25 (3), γ = 90.92(3)°, and Z = 2. The structure was solved by the heavy atom method and refined on 1718 independent reflections to an R factor of 0.069. The crystal contains discrete molecules, in which mercury is coordinated to four nitrogen atoms from two phenanthroline molecules and to two sulfur atoms from thiocyanate groups. These donor atoms define a distorted octahedral geometry around mercury. The Hg—N bond lengths are in the range 2.42(2)–2.52(2) Å, whereas the Hg—S bonds are equal to 2.622(8) and 2.582(8) Å. The molecules are packed in layers parallel to the (110) planes and the layers are held together by normal van der Waals interactions. Within the layers, the packing of the complex is characterized by parallel stacking of phenanthroline ligands at distances of ∼3.4 Å. The terminal nitrogen atoms of the thiocyanate groups are uncoordinated.

The structure of the centrosymmetric title complex, [Cu(C5H9O2)2(C6H7NO)2], has the CuIIatom on a centre of inversion. The CuIIatom is six-coordinate with a distorted octahedral geometry, defined by the N and O atoms of the chelating 2-(2-hydroxymethyl)pyridine ligands and two carboxylate O atoms from two monodentate pivalate ions. The crystal packing is stabilized by intermolecular C—H...O and intramolecular O—H...O hydrogen-bond interactions.

In the title mononuclear complex, [Co(C9H4N2O4)(H2O)5]·5H2O, the CoIIatom exhibits a distorted octahedral geometry involving an N atom of a 1H-benzimidazole-5,6-dicarboxylate ligand and five water O atoms. A supramolecular network is generated through intermolecular O—H...O hydrogen-bonding interactions involving the coordinated and uncoordinated water molecules and the carboxyl O atoms of the organic ligand. An intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen bond is also observed.

The ligand, 3-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzaldehydethiosemicarbazone has been prepared by the condensation of 3-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzaldehyde and thiosemicarbazide. With the help of this ligand the complexes of Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) have been prepared with general formula [ML2X2] where X is secondary ligand, Cl–, NO3– and CH3COO–. The composition of complexes has been established by their microanalysis, while the metal contents have been determined gravimetrically and volumetrically. On the basis of IR spectra, the coordinating mode of ligand has been determined and has been found to have coordinated through azomethine nitrogen and thione sulphur. The magnetic moment of Co(II) complexes has been found between 4.96-4.72 B. M. The value is slightly higher than the μs value corresponding to three unpaired electrons (3.872 B.M). The increase in value may be attributed to orbital contribution from 4T1g ground state cubic term. The appearance of four bands in their electronic spectra is indicative of tetragonally distorted octahedral geometry of Co(II) complexes. The magnetic moment (3.20-3.30 B. M.) and appearance of 4 bands in the electronic spectra of Ni(II) complexes confirms the distorted octahedral geometry of the complexes. The magnetic moment of Cu(II) complexes has been determined to be (1.95-2.20 B. M.) which shows that Cu(II) complexes are magnetically dilute complexes. The appearance of three bands in their electronic spectra confirms John - Tellor distortion in octahedral symmetry of Cu(II) complexes. The various crystal field parameters exhibiting tetragonal distortion in the octahedral symmetry have also been derived. The positive value of Dt predicts tetragonal elongation in Oh symmetry.

We report the structural characterization of [6′,6′′-bis(pyridin-2-yl)-2,2′:4′,4′′:2′′,2′′′-quaterpyridine](2,2′-bipyridine)chloridoruthenium(II) hexafluoridophosphate, [RuCl(C10H8N2)(C30H20N6)]PF6, which contains the bidentate ligand 2,2′-bipyridine (bpy) and the tridendate ligand 6′,6′′-bis(pyridin-2-yl)-2,2′:4′,4′′:2′′,2′′′-quaterpyridine (tpy–tpy). The [RuCl(bpy)(tpy–tpy)]+monocation has a distorted octahedral geometry at the central RuIIion due to the restricted bite angle [159.32 (16)°] of the tridendate ligand. The Ru-bound tpy and bpy moieties are nearly planar and essentially perpendicular to each other with a dihedral angle of 89.78 (11)° between the least-squares planes. The lengths of the two Ru—N bonds for bpy are 2.028 (4) and 2.075 (4) Å, with the shorter bond being opposite to Ru—Cl. For tpy–tpy, the mean Ru—N distance involving the outer N atomstransto each other is 2.053 (8) Å, whereas the length of the much shorter bond involving the central N atom is 1.936 (4) Å. The Ru—Cl distance is 2.3982 (16) Å. The free uncoordinated moiety of tpy–tpy adopts atrans,transconformation about the interannular C—C bonds, with adjacent pyridyl rings being only approximately coplanar. The crystal packing shows significant π–π stacking interactions based on tpy–tpy. The crystal structure reported here is the first for a tpy–tpy complex of ruthenium.

The title complex, [Co(C21H16N4)2][Co(NCS)4]·CH3OH, consists of one [Co{C(py)4}2]2+complex cation [C(py)4= tetrakis(pyridin-2-yl)methane], one [Co(NCS)4]2−complex anion and a methanol solvent molecule. In the cation, the CoIIatom is coordinated by six N atoms of two C(py)4ligands in a distorted octahedral geometry. In the anion, the CoIIatom is coordinated by the N atoms of four NCS−ligands in a distorted tetrahedral geometry. The methanol molecule is disordered and was modelled over three orientations (occupancies 0.8:0.1:0.1). There are two weak hydrogen-bond-like interactions between the methanol solvent molecule and NCS−ligands of the anion [O...S = 3.283 (3) and 3.170 (2) Å].

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Mn(C6H6N4)2(H2O)2](C8H4O4), contains one-half each of the centrosymmetric cation and anion. The MnII atom is coordinated by four N atoms [Mn—N = 2.2168 (14) and 2.2407 (14) Å] from two 2,2′-biimidazole ligands and two water molecules [Mn—O = 2.2521 (14) Å] in a distorted octahedral geometry. Intermolecular N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds consolidate the crystal packing, which also exhibits π–π interactions between five-membered rings, with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.409 (2) Å.
