The syntheses of adducts, [(Ph3Sb)3CuX], X = Br, I, NO3, obtained by crystallization of 1 : 3 CuX/SbPh3 mixtures from appropriate solvents are described, together with their room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structure determinations. The bromide, obtained as a chloroform monosolvate from that solvent, is triclinic, P-1, a 13·861(4), b 14·306(4), c 14·347(4) Å, α 84·40(2), β 86·93(2), γ 75·56(2)°, Z = 2 f.u., conventional R on F being 0·053 for No = 4136 independent ‘observed’ (I > 3σ(I)) reflections; this solvate is isomorphous with its previously recorded chloride counterpart. The iodide is triclinic, P-1, a 14·55(1), b 14·385(2), c 23·626(6) Å, α 91·78(1), β 90·77(4), γ 92·54(5)°; Z= 4, R 0·050 for No 6917, and isomorphous with its phosphorus counterpart. The nitrate, although a methanol sesquisolvate, is also isomorphous with the chloride and bromide, a 13·369(9), b 14·398(3), c 14· 504(12) Å, α 82·29(5), β 84·39(6), γ 75·11(4)°, R 0·052 for No 5672. Cu-X are (2·235(5) (Cl)), 2·366(3) (Br), 2· 556(2) ( 2 ) (I), 1·98(1) Å (ONO2), appreciably shorter than in their previously recorded EPh3, E = P, As counterparts. The far-infrared spectra of [(Ph3Sb)3CuX] showed no clear v(CuX) bands, in contrast to the situation reported previously for the corresponding Ph3P and Ph3As compounds. It is likely that v(CuCl) is masked by a strong band at 270 cm-1 due to the Ph3Sb ligand. However, the region below 250 cm-1 in which the v(CuX) bands are expected for the X = Br, I complexes contains no strong ligand bands. Possible reasons for the absence of v(CuX) bands in these complexes are considered.

Crystallization of 1 : 2 mixtures of the copper(I) halides CuX, X = Cl, Br, I, with triphenylstibine from acetonitrile yields adducts of 1 : 2 CuX/SbPh3 stoichiometry, confirmed by single-crystal X-ray structure determinations. The three complexes are isomorphous, monoclinic, P 21/c, a ≈ 24·3, b ≈ 14·2, c ≈ 20 Å, β 110°, Z = 4 dimers; conventional R on F were 0·047, 0·044 and 0·045 for No 11247, 4673 and 10418 independent ‘observe’ (I > 3σ(I)) reflections respectively. The complexes, also isomorphous with some related species, e.g. 1 : 2 AgBr,I/AsPh3, are dimers: [(Ph3Sb)2Cu(µ-X)2Cu(SbPh3)2]. The chloride is also recorded as a chloroform disolvate, isomorphous with its arsine analogue, being monoclinic, C 2/c, a 21·486(9), b 17· 925(9), c 19·972(7) Å, β 91·31(3)°, Z = 4 dimers, R 0·057 for No 3756. The far-infrared spectra of [(Ph3Sb)2Cu(µ-X)2Cu(SbPh3)2] (X = Br, I) showed no clear v(CuX) bands, in contrast to the situation reported previously for the corresponding Ph3As compounds. A possible v(CuCl) band is observed in the X = Cl complex at 219 cm-1 , but this occurs in a region where there is also significant absorption in the other two compounds. The absence of strong v(CuX) bands in these complexes is consistent with the situation observed previously for the 3 : 1 compounds [(Ph3Sb)3CuX].

The syntheses and room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structural characterization of binuclear 1 : 2 adducts formed between silver(I) (pseudo-)halides, AgX, and triphenylarsine, AsPh3, for X = Cl, Br, I, SCN (1)–(4), are described. The chloride (1), obtained from 2-methylpyridine, is triclinic, P-1, a 10·410(2), b 12·716(2), c 14·196(6) Å, α 113·38(2), β 109·41(2), γ 75·08(1)°, Z = 1 (dimer); conventional R on F was 0·037 for No 3979 independent ‘observed’ (I > 3σ(I)) reflections. The bromide (2a), obtained from 2,6-dimethylpyridine, and iodide (3), obtained from a mixture of AgI/saturated KI in MeOH solutions, are isomorphous, monoclinic, P 21/c a≈ 24·2, b ≈ 13·9, c ≈ 20·2 Å, β ≈ 109·5°, Z = 4 dimers; R was 0·046 and 0·044 for No 5670 and 6039 respectively. The thiocyanate (4) has a similar cell, a 24·12(1), b 12·558(8), c 23·244(4) Å, β 110·11(3)°, Z = 4 dimers, R being 0·044 for No 7956; one of the thiocyanate ligands (which bridge in Ag-SCN-Ag mode) is disordered. A second polymorph of the bromide (2b) (from a mixture of AgBr/saturated KBr in H2O) is also monoclinic, P 21/c, a 14·121(8), b 25·577(3), c 21·968(2) Å, β 125·54(3)°, Z = 4 dimers (R was 0·047 for No 5715). Ag–As range between 2·568(1) and 2·633(1) Å throughout the series; in the isomorphous bromide and iodide, values increase slightly: 2·578(1)–2·611(1), cf. 2·601(2)-2·633(1) Å respectively. Ag–X are 2·568(2)-2·670(2) (Cl); 2·688(2)–2·715(2) (Br); 2·828(2)–2·856(1) Å (I); Ag-S, N for the ordered SCN group are 2·646(3), 2·255(6) Å. A redetermination of improved precision (R 0·035, No 6030) is reported for the triphenylphosphine/thiocyanate analogue. The far-infrared spectra of [(Ph3As)2Ag(µ-X)2Ag (AsPh3)2] show v(AgX) bands at 185, 145 (X = Cl), 145, 130, 106 (X = Br) and 121 cm-1 (X = I). The splittings and band widths reflect a decrease in the degree of distortion of the Ag(µ-X)2Ag units from a symmetrically bridged structure from X = Cl to I.

Crystallization of some copper(I) salts, CuX, with triphenylarsine in 1 : 3 stoichiometry from acetonitrile has yielded an array of adducts, [(Ph3As)3CuX], characterized by room-temperature single crystal X-ray structure determinations. [(Ph3As)3CuCl] (1) has been characterized in two unsolvated phases, α and β, the second form previously recorded as monoclinic, P21/n, Z = 8. The ‘α’ phase, like the bromide (2) and iodide (3), adopts the trigonal P3 array, widespread among many [(Ph3E)3MX] adducts with a ≈ 19, c ≈ 11 Å; conventional R on F was 0·037, 0·041, 0·056 for No 3458, 3259, 3434 independent ‘observed’ (I > 3σ(I)) reflections for these three adducts respectively. A further form, γ, is a toluene hemisolvate, monoclinic, P21/c, a 21·490(5), b 10·218(7), c 24·901(6) Å, β 117·53(2)°, Z = 4, R 0·057 for No 7207. The nitrate (4), obtained as a monosolvate from methanol, is monoclinic, P21/n, a 15 ·115(9), b 23·201(9), c 14·170(14) Å, β 92·56(7)°, Z = 4, R 0·049 for No 5476. In all compounds, the copper atom is four-coordinate, E3CuX, the nitrate in (4) being -ONO2 unidentate. The CuX bond lengthsr(CuX) in [(Ph3E)3CuX] (X = Cl, Br, I) show a decrease from the Ph3P to the corre3sponding Ph3As compound, and this is consistent with the observed increase in the v(CuX) wavenumbers in the far-infrared spectra. These trends are both consistent with an increase in the CuX bond strength from the Ph3P to the Ph3As complexes, and possible reasons for this are discussed.

Syntheses and room-temperature single crystal X-ray structure determinations are recorded for adducts [M(EPh3)4] (ClO4), M = Cu, E = As (1), Sb (2); M = Ag, E = As (3), Sb (4), enabling comparison with analogous, previously studied MP4 and MN4 environments. The four complexes so characterized all crystallize in the familiar rhombohedral R-3 array (a ≈ 14·4, c ≈ 52 Å, hexagonal setting) with the metal and chlorine atoms located on crystallographic threefold axes. In these arrays Cu–E (axial, off axis) are 2·493(2), 2·533(1) for (1), and 2·572(1), 2·577(1) Å for (2), the disparity in the two independent M-E distances being diminished relative to those of previously studied phosphorus analogues, perhaps in consequence of increasing E size. In (3) and (4), some cation disorder is evident in respect of the ligand pnictide atom (E); for the major components Ag-E are 2·652(3), 2·680(2) in (3); 2·732(2), 2·7295(8) Å in (4). Problems associated in defining the metal atom environment geometries in the latter are, nevertheless, more satisfactorily overcome in two further determinations of nitrate salts: [Ag(SbPh3)4] (NO3) (5) is of the rhombohedral family with no cation core disorder, Ag–E (axial, off axis) being 2·720(4), 2·725(2) Å, while the structural characterization of a 1 : 4 triphenylarsine adduct of silver nitrate is recorded as its tetraethanol solvate, namely [Ag(AsPh3)4] (NO3).~ 4C2H5OH(6), monoclinic, C2/c, a 18·373(4), b 20·786(5), c 21·070(8) Å, β 108·18(3)°, Z = 4 f.u. The silver atom of the [Ag(AsPh3)4]+cation unusually lies on a crystallographic 2 (rather than a 3 ) axis of the incipiently23 (T) array, with Ag-As 2·649(2), 2·650(2) Å and As-Ag-As ranging from 108·22(4) to 111·41(6)°. The structure determination of a chloroform solvate of (2), denoted (2a), of low precision, is noted, together with the structure of an interesting artefact, isomorphous with the rhombohedral oxoanion array, modelled as [Ag(PPh3)4]2 (SiF6).py (7). Bands in the far-infrared spectra of [M(AsPh3)4] (ClO4) are assigned to v(MAs) vibrations at 119 (M = Cu) and 103 cm¯1 (M = Ag); this produces a more consistent picture of the variation in the wavenumbers of the v(ME) modes in [M(EPh3)4]+ compounds than was available previously.

Syntheses and room-temperature single-crystal X-ray determinations are recorded for a number of adducts of BiX3/N,N′-bidentate 1 : 2 stoichiometry (N,N′-bidentate = 2,2′-bipyridine (bpy) or 1,10-phenanthroline (phen)). BiX3/bpy (1 : 2), X = Br, I, are isomorphous, monoclinic, P21/c, a ≈ 7·5, b ≈ 31, c ≈ 10·3 Å, β ≈ 113°, Z = 4; conventional R on |F| were 0·058, 0·055 for No 1744, 2068 independent ‘observed’ (I > 3σ(I)) reflections. BiCl3/phen (1 : 2) is monoclinic, P21/C, a 9·675(3), b 31·845(7), c 7·756(2) Å, β 109·94(2), Z = 4, R 0·071 for No 2537, while BiBr3/phen (1 : 2), also monoclinic, P21/c, has a 17·590(5), b 8·812(2), c 17·537(7) Å, β 117·58(3)°, Z = 4; R 0·083 for No 890. BiX3/phen (1 : 2).S, X/S = Br/MeCN, I/CH2Cl2, are isomorphous, orthorhombic, Pna21, a ≈ 20·7, b ≈ 14·2, c ≈ 8·9 Å, Z = 4, R 0·060, 0·046 for No 1553, 2423 respectively. All complexes are mononuclear with seven-coordinate (N2)2BiX3 bismuth environments. Bands in the far-infrared spectra due to the v(BiX) vibrations in [(phen)2BiCl3] and [(bpy)2BiX3] (X = Br, I) are assigned and discussed in relation to the structures of the complexes.

Room-temperature single-crystal X-ray studies are recorded for a number of adducts of BiX3 and N,N′-bidentate ligand (2,2′-bipyridine (bpy) or 1,10-phenanthroline (phen)), devoid of coordinated solvent. BiBr3/bpy/MeCN (1 : 1 : 1) is triclinic P-1, a 12·129(2), b 9·955(4), c 7·748(1) Å, α 73·14(2), β 77·34(1), γ 69·79(2)°, Z = 2; conventional R on |F| was 0·036 for No 2252 independent ‘observed’ (I > 3σ(I)) reflections. The phen analogue is isomorphous, a 11·586(3), b 10·839(6), c 7·769(10) Å, α 73·70(7), β 76·67(7), γ 70·34(4)°, Z = 2, R 0·042 for No 800. BiI3/bpy (1 : 1) is triclinic, P-1, a 11·742(4), b 9·261(1), c 8·261(3) Å, α 86·46(2), β 71·48(3), γ 67·25(2)°, Z = 2, R 0·043 for No 1164. All complexes are centrosymmetric binuclear [(N,N′-bidentate)X2Bi(µ-X)2BiX2(N,N′-bidentate)] with six-coordinate pseudo-octahedral bismuth(III). Attempts to produce a chloride analogue have resulted, in the case of N,N′-bidentate = bpy, in a novel adduct of BiCl3/bpy 1 : 1·5 stoichiometry, monoclinic, P21/c, a 9·377(8), b 17·699(5), c 21·58(1) Å, β 107·82(6)°, Z = 8, R 0·055 for No 1804. The complex is [(bpy)2Cl2Bi(µ-Cl)BiCl3(bpy)], containing seven- and six-coordinate bismuth. Bands in the far-infrared spectra due to the v(BiX) vibrations in [(bpy)2Cl2Bi(µ-Cl)BiCl3(bpy)] and [(bpy)I2Bi(µ-I2)BiI2(bpy)] are assigned and discussed in relation to the structures of the complexes.

Syntheses and room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structural characterization of binuclear 1 : 2 adducts formed between silver(I) halides, AgX (X = Cl, Br, I), and triphenylstibine, SbPh3, are described. The three complexes are isomorphous, being triclinic, P-1, a ≈ 18·5, b ≈ 14·6, c ≈ 14·5 Å, α ≈ 62·5, β ≈ 74, γ ≈ 77°, Z = 2 centrosymmetric dimers. Conventional R on F were 0·043, 0·038 and 0·046 for 4984, 8479 and 4166 independent, ‘observed’ (I > 3σ(I)) reflections respectively. In [(Ph3b)2Ag(µ-X)2Ag(SbPh3)2], Ag–Sb range between 2·702(1) and 2·744(2) Å, lengthening slightly from chloride to iodide; Ag–X are 2·567(5)–2·628(4) (Cl), 2·684(1)–2·737(1) (Br) and 2·826(3)–2·869(3) Å (I). The far-infrared spectra of [(Ph3Sb)2Ag(µ-X)2Ag(SbPh3)2] show v(AgX) bands at 178, 158 (X = Cl), 121 (X = Br) and 110 cm-1 (X = I). The splittings and band widths reflect a decrease in the degree of distortion of the Ag(µ-X)2Ag units from a symmetrically bridged structure from X = Cl to I.

Syntheses and room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structure determinations are recorded for 1:1 adducts of 2,2':6',2"-terpyridine (' tpy ') with the lead(II) oxoanion salts perchlorate, nitrate and nitrite, ( tpy ) Pb ( oxoanion )2. All structures are monoclinic, C2/c, Z = 4, with approximate ranges a from 9 to 11 Ǻ, b from 16 to 20 Ǻ, c from 9.8 to 13.8 Ǻ, β from 113 to 130° and V from 1650 to 1850 Ǻ3. In all cases the lead(II) atoms are disposed on crystallographic 2 axes which also pass through the axis of the central tpy ring; a pair of symmetry related oxoanions link successive lead atoms in a one-dimensional polymeric chain parallel to the ac cell diagonal, one pair of oxygen atoms functioning as an O,O'-bidentate with another oxygen (replaced by the nitrogen in the nitrite) bridging to the adjacent lead atom; the third anionic oxygen atom in the nitrate is replaced by a water molecule in the nitrite, which thus becomes a monohydrate. Residuals were 0.030, 0.034 and 0.040 for 2122, 1564 and 2059 independent 'observed' (I > 3σ(I)) reflections respectively. Also recorded are the syntheses and room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structure determinations for 1:1 aducts of 2,2':6',2"-terpyridine with lead(II) chloride, bromide and iodide, the chloride and bromide being hydrated. ( tpy )PbCl2.H2O is monoclinic, P 21/c, a 8.938(1), b 15,210(7), c 13.414(3) Ǻ, β 115.17(1)°, Z = 4 f.u .; R was 0.036 for No = 3346 independent, 'observed' reflections. The complex is centrosymmetric, binuclear [( tpy ) (H2O)( Cl ) Pb (μ- Cl )2Pb( Cl )(OH2)( tpy )], with the two lead atoms linked by bridging chlorine atoms; the lead atoms are seven-coordinate N3,O,ClPb(μ- Cl )2. The bromide ( tpy )PbBr2.2/3H2O, triclinic, Pī, a 12.360(6), b 12.452(4), c 18.372(6) Ǻ, α 108.31(3), β 109.44(3), γ 90.56(3)°, Z = 6 f.u ., R being 0.046 for No 7282, is in fact trinuclear [Pb3Br6( tpy )6].2H2O, a novel and elegant oligomer with quasi-2 symmetry in which a central lead atom (on the quasi-2 axis) is seven-coordinated [( tpy ) Pb (μ-Br)4] with the associated bromides bridging to a pair of peripheral lead atoms, also seven coordinated, [( tpy )(Br) Pb (μ-Br)3]. Unsolvated ( tpy )PbI2, triclinic, Pī , a 10.834(3), b 9.023(3), c 8.906(2) Ǻ, α 80.34(2), β 89.40(2), γ 79.78(2)°, Z = 2 f.u ., R 0.031 for No 2347 is, like the chloride, centrosymmetric binuclear, [( tpy )(I) Pb (μ-I)2Pb(I)( tpy )], but with the lead(II) now six-coordinate N3(I) Pb (μ-I)2. In both chloride and iodide, the tpy plane is approximately normal to the Pb ... Pb line with the water molecule of the chloride approximately trans to the central tpy nitrogen; in the iodide that site is occupied by the terminal halide.

Room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structure determinations are recorded for (hydrated) lanthanoid(III) nitrate/2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine (‘tpy’) (1 : 1) complexes; all are of the form Ln(NO3)3/tpy/H2O(1 : 1 :x), [(tpy)Ln(O2NO)2(OH2)y](NO3)(.z H2O), and form two series of compounds. For Ln = La(-)Gd, the complexes are [(tpy)Ln(O2NO)2(OH2)3](NO3), the lanthanoid atom being ten-coordinate; crystals are triclinic, P 1, a ≈ 11·8, b ≈ 11·3, c ≈ 8·9 Å, α ≈ 75, β 69, γ ≈ 89°, Z = 2 f.u., conventional R on |F| 0·045, 0·062 for No 4513, 2710 independent ‘observed’ (I > 3σ(I)) diffractometer reflections for Ln = La, Gd respectively. For Ln = Tb(-)Lu, a different form is found: monoclinic, P 21/c, a ≈ 8·8, b ≈ 11·5, c ≈ 23·8 Å, β ≈ 111°, Z = 4, R 0·055, 0·037, 0·056 for No 2427, 3079, 1857 for Ln = Tb, Lu, Y respectively, the form of the complex being [(tpy)Ln(O2NO)2(OH2)2](NO3).2H2O, with nine-coordinate lanthanoid. Crystallization of the Ln = La adduct from methanol yields an adduct of La(NO3)3/tpy/MeOH (1 : 1 : 2) [(tpy)La(O2NO)3(HOMe)2] stoichiometry with 11-coordinate lanthanum. Crystals are triclinic, P 1, a 12·361(2), b 12·244(3), c 7·753(2) Å, α 96·56(2), β 103·22(2), γ 91·16(2)°, Z = 2, R 0·037 for No 6597.

The syntheses and room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structure determination of 1 : 3 adducts formed between silver(I) (pseudo-)halides, AgX, and triphenylarsine, AsPh3, are described (X = Cl, Br, I, SCN), [(Ph3As)3AgX], (1)–(4). The chloride (1) has been previously described as its acetone hemisolvate; other solvates (1a–d) (0·75 MeCN, MeOH, 1·5 pyridine, 0·75 2,6-dimethylpyridine) are isomorphous, being triclinic, P-1, a ≈ 13·5, b ≈ 14·0, c ≈ 14·25 Å, α ≈ 83, β ≈ 87, γ ≈ 76°, V ≈ 2600 Å3, Z = 2 f.u. The bromide (2), iodide (3) and thiocyanate (4) are isomorphous with [(Ph3P)3AgI], monoclinic, P21/n, a ≈ 19·1, b ≈ 14·0, c ≈ 17·7 Å, β ≈ 97°, Z = 4 f.u. In the chlorides, Ag–Cl are 2·494(5)–2·525(6) Å, with appreciably different Cl–Ag–As ranges (99·7(1)–114·3(1)° in the acetonitrile solvate; 104·8(2)–110·2(1)° in the 2,6-dimethylpyridine solvate) and more compact As–Ag–As distributions (overall range: 109·93(8)–113·26(3)°). For the bromide and iodide, Ag–X are 2·627(1) and 2·779(1) Å respectively, while for the thiocyanate Ag–S is 2·550(5) Å with Ag–S–C 104·2(3)°; the latter complexes also display wide ranges for many of the associated bonding parameters about the silver atom. The far-infrared spectra of [(Ph3As)3AgX] (X = Cl, Br, I) show v(AgX) bands at 217, 145 and 124 cm-1 respectively. The relationship between the v(AgX) wavenumbers and the Ag–X bond length r (AgX) is found to be the same as that for a range of AgX complexes with phosphine ligands, and is similar to that observed previously for analogous CuX complexes.
