The π-hydrocarbons p-terphenyl and p-quaterphenyl are reduced to their dianions in aprotic solutions of different ethers at sodium metal mirrors. Single crystal structure determinations of the solvent-separated or solvens-shared contact ion multiples, [p-terphenyl⊖⊖ Na⊕(DME)2Na⊕DME]2, p-quaterphenyl⊖⊖ ][Na⊕(DME)3]2 and [p-quaterpheny⊖⊖( Na⊕(THF)3)2], prove the essential cation solvation by the chelating dimethoxyethane (DME) versus the bulky tetrahydrofuran (THF) ligands: The solution network of equilibria between solvent separated and solvent shared ion aggregates can be considerably and transparently modified by the ether solvent selected. In addition, the structures of the monomeric sodium salts reveal partly novel details of metal cation coordination by contacts Na⊕ ··· O as well as Na⊕ ··· Cπ such as in the dimeric sodium salt of p-terphenyl dianion, [(DME)2Na⊕ (terphenyl⊖⊖)(Na⊕ DME)(terphenyl⊖⊖)Na⊕ (DME)2].

The solid-state structural analysis of the title compound [systematic name: 5,11-disulfanylidene-4,6,10,12-tetrakis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-4,6,10,12-tetraazatricyclo[7.3.0.03,7]dodeca-1(9),3(7)-diene-2,8-dione], C44H44N4O2S2 [+solvent], reveals that the molecule crystallizes in a highly symmetric cubic space group so that one quarter of the molecule is crystallographically unique, the molecule lying on special positions (two mirror planes, two twofold axes and a center of inversion). The crystal structure exhibits large cavities of 193 Å3 accounting for 7.3% of the total unit-cell volume. These cavities contain residual density peaks but it was not possible to unambiguously identify the solvent therein. The contribution of the disordered solvent molecules to the scattering was removed using a solvent mask and is not included in the reported molecular weight. No classical hydrogen bonds are observed between the main molecules.

Five new complexes of compositions [Cu(1,2-pn)2Fe(CN)5NO]·H2O (1,2-pn = propane-1,2-diamine) and [Cu(L)Fe(CN)5NO]·xH2O (L = tmen (N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethane-1,2-diamine), x = 0.5; L = trimeen (N,N,N′-trimethylethane-1,2-diamine), x = 1; L = dien (N-(2-aminoethyl)ethane-1,2-diamine), x = 0; L = medpt (N-(3-aminopropyl)-N-methylpropane-1,3-diamine), x = 2) have been isolated from the reaction mixture of Cu(ClO4)2·6H2O (or CuCl2·2H2O), the amine and Na2 [Fe(CN)5NO]·2H2O in water. The complexes have been characterized by infrared and ultraviolet–visible spectroscopies, and magnetic measurements. Single-crystal X-ray structural analysis revealed that the [Cu(1,2-pn)2Fe(CN)5NO]·H2O complex assumes a cyanide-bridged binuclear structure in which iron(II) is six-coordinated by five cyanide ligands and one nitrosyl group (the nitrosyl group lies cis to the bridging cyanide group), while copper(II) is five-coordinated by two propane-1,2-diamine ligands and a bridging cyanide ligand in a distorted tetragonal pyramidal arrangement.

β-Zn3(PO4)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P 21/c with lattice parameters, a = 9.393(3) Å, b = 9.170(6) Å, c = 8.686(3) Å, β = 125.73(10)°, and Z = 4. The three independent cations are strongly ligated to 4, 5, and 5 oxygen atoms, with average Zn—O bond distances of 1.98 ± 0.09 Å, 2.10 ± 0.10 Å, and 2.08 ± 0.13 Å respectively. In addition there are two longer Zn—O distances of 2.51 Å and 2.55 Å in this structure. The PO4 groups exist as independent, nearly regular tetrahedra, with each oxygen atom ligated to two cations. Unlike the structures found for the α and γ phases of Zn3(PO4)2, which contain ribbons and sheets respectively as the basic cation coordination motif, the structure of β-Zn3(PO4)2 contains interconnected sheets.

The novel complex [μ-(NC)-Fe(CN)3(NO)-μ-(CN)-Cu(ept)]n·4nH2O (ept = N-(2-aminoethyl)- propane-1,3-diamine) was obtained by the reaction of Cu(ClO4)2·6H2O with N-(2-amino- ethyl)propane-1,3-diamine and Na2[Fe(CN)5NO]·2H2O in water. This compound was characterized by IR, UV-VIS and EPR spectroscopies and magnetic measurement. Single-crystal X-ray structure analysis revealed that the title complex has a one-dimensional polymeric structure containing hexacoordinate iron(II) with five cyanide ligands (two of them, in trans position, bridging) and one nitrosyl group, and pentacoordinate copper(II) with N-(2-aminoethyl)propane-1,3-diamine and two sites occupied by bridging cyanide ligands. Magnetic investigation revealed a very weak antiferromagnetic interaction between the copper atoms (superexchange interaction parameter J = -1.7(1) cm-1; H = -JSiSi+1) within the chain through the diamagnetic [Fe(CN)5NO]2- ions.

The title complex, poly[dodeca-μ-cyanido-diiron(III)triplatinum(II)], [FeIII2{PtII(CN)4}3], has a three-dimensional polymeric structure. It is built-up from square-planar [PtII(CN)4]2−anions (point group symmetry 2/m) bridging cationic [FeIIIPtII(CN)4]+∞layers extending in thebcplane. The FeIIatoms of the layers are located on inversion centres and exhibit an octahedral coordination sphere defined by six N atoms of cyanide ligands, while the PtIIatoms are located on twofold rotation axes and are surrounded by four C atoms of the cyanide ligands in a square-planar coordination. The geometrical preferences of the two cations for octahedral and square-planar coordination, respectively, lead to a corrugated organisation of the layers. The distance between neighbouring [FeIIIPtII(CN)4]+∞layers corresponds to the lengtha/2 = 8.0070 (3) Å, and the separation between two neighbouring PtIIatoms of the bridging [PtII(CN)4]2−groups corresponds to the length of thecaxis [7.5720 (2) Å]. The structure is porous with accessible voids of 390 Å3per unit cell.

The reaction ofN1,N1′-(ethane-1,2-diyl)bis(propane-1,3-diamine) (bapen), K2[Ni(CN)4]·H2O and dimethylformamide in the presence of Gd(NO3)3·6H2O under solvothermal conditions yielded yellow crystals of dicyanido(2,3,4,6,7,9,10,11-octahydropyrimido[2′,1′:3,4]pyrazino[1,2-a]pyrimidine)nickel(II) hemihydrate, [Ni(CN)2(C10H16N4)]·0.5H2O, (I), the crystal structure of which is composed of [Ni(CN)2(pdpm)] molecules (pdpm is 2,3,4,6,7,9,10,11-octahydropyrimido[2′,1′:3,4]pyrazino[1,2-a]pyrimidine) on general positions linked by O—H...N hydrogen bonds to water molecules located on twofold axes. This structural unit is further linked by nonclassical C—H...N interactions to form a warped two-dimensional net perpendicular to the unit-cellbaxis. The nets are stacked, with C—H...O contacts joining successive units. The NiIIcation is coordinated with square-planar geometry by a chelating pdpm ligand and two cyanide ligands in mutuallycispositions. Complex (I) is stable up to 360 K, at which point dehydration takes place; the ligands start to decompose at 558 K.

The title compound, C6H12O5, was crystallized from an aqueous solution of 6-deoxy-L-psicose (6-deoxy-L-allulose, (3S,4S,5S)-1,3,4,5-tetrahydroxyhexan-2-one), and the molecule was confirmed as α-furanose with a3T4(orE4) conformation, which is a predominant tautomer in solution. This five-membered furanose ring structure is the second example in the field of the 6-deoxy-ketohexose family. The cell volume of the title compound [742.67 (7) Å3,Z= 4 at room temperature] is only 1.4% smaller than that of β-D-psicopyranose, C6H12O6(753.056 Å3,Z= 4 at room temperature).
