Electronic And Structural Properties

Essentially high-spin [Fe(bpp)2][NCS]2·2H2O and [Fe(bpp)2][NCSe]2 (bpp = 2,6-bis(pyrazol-3-yl)pyridine) were isolated from an aqueous reaction mixture. Both salts undergo an abrupt transition to low spin below room temperature, that for the thiocyanate occurring in two steps and the high-spin Æ low-spin Æ high-spin cycle being accompanied by hysteresis in both steps. Recrystallization of the salts from nitromethane yielded a mixture from which bright yellow crystals were separated for structure determination. In addition, from the recrystallized selenocyanate, deep red-brown crystals of composition [Fe(bpp)2][NCSe]2·H2O·0.25 CH3NO2 were obtained. Recrystallized [Fe(bpp)2][NCS]2·2H2O and [Fe(bpp)2][NCSe]2 were identified as high spin with average Fe–N distances of 2.16 and 2.17 Å, respectively. In the unit cell of [Fe(bpp)2][NCSe]2·H2O·0.25 CH3NO2, there are four independent iron atoms, three identified as low spin and the fourth as high spin. All salts crystallize in a layer-type array involving edge-to-face and face-to-face aryl–aryl-type interactions. Hydrogen bonding between pyrazole >NH groups, anions and solvate molecules is observed. The structure of the uncoordinated ligand was also determined, the molecule being found in a planar arrangement with thecis–cis configuration for the pyrazolyl groups relative to the central pyridyl and the >NH group being at the N 2 atom. Hydrogen bonding involving the >NH groups leads to stepped stacks of molecules. The principal difference in the geometry of coordinated and free bpp molecules is a contraction in the angles about the interannular bridges in the chelate rings.

Complex salts containing the [FeIIN6]2+ derivative of 2-(pyrazin-2-ylamino)-4-(pyridin-2-yl)thiazole (pzaptH) undergo continuous, temperature-induced singlet (1A1) quintet (5T2) transitions with the transition temperature being dependent on the nature of the counter anion and the presence of solvate water, the latter tending to stabilize the singlet state. A transition is also observed for the fluoroborate salt in methanol solution. The extent of stabilization of the singlet state for iron(II) in these complexes is somewhat greater than in those derived from the previously studied 2-(pyridin-2-ylamino)-4-(pyridin-2-yl)thiazole. The crystal structures of [Fe(pzaptH)2] [CF3SO3]2 and [Ni(pzaptH)2] [BF4]2.2H2O have been determined. The average Fe-N distance is 1·985 Å, a value consistent with the essentially low-spin nature of the complex at room temperature, and the average Ni-N distance is 2·089 Å. In both complexes the bridging >NH group is involved in hydrogen bonding to the anions and, in the nickel complex, also to the solvate water. The uncoordinated nitrogen of the pyrazine ring is not hydrogen-bonded.

Abstract The new compound [(Crypt-2.2.2)H2]I8 has been prepared by the reaction of [(Crypt-2.2.2)H2](I3)2 with iodine in methanol. It crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbcn with a = 11.476 (2), b = 13.589 (2), c = 22.888 (2) Å and Z = 4. The crystal structure has been refined to RF = 0.031 for 1618 reflections. It may be described as a layerlike packing of octaiodide anions I82-and diprotonated 2.2.2-Crypt as cations. The non planar octaiodide anion is built up from two triiodide groups and a bridging iodine molecule.Tris(1, 10-phenanthroline)nickel(II) octaiodide bis(chloroform) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/n with a = 11.683 (8), b = 21.717 (8), c = 20.752 (5) Å, β = 95.03 (5)° and Z = 4 formula units. The crystal structure has been refined to RF = 0.058 for 3894 reflections. The structure consists of two chloroform molecules, octahedrally coordinated complex cations [Ni(phen)3]2+ and nonplanar octaiodide anions I82- each composed of two asymmetric triiodide units I3- weakly associated with an elongated bridging iodine molecule I2.The already known structure of bis(N-methylurotropinium) octaiodide, (UrMe)2I8, has been verified and more accurate crystal data have been collected. The crystal structure has been refined to RF = 0.045 for 1908 reflections. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with a = 11.302 (2), b = 9.850 (2), c = 14.188 (2) Å , β = 92.59 (1)° and Z = 2. The anion has the shape of a stretched Z.The structure of bis(N-ethylurotropinium) octaiodide (UrEt)2I8 has been determined and a new configuration (I3-, I5-) for octaiodide ions between Z (I3- · I2 ·I3-) and a “broken” configuration (I3-, I5-) has been observed. The compound crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1̄ with a = 9.741 (3), b = 11.815 (3), c = 15.426 (3) Å, α = 91.80 (2), β = 107.14 (2), γ = 90.04 (2)° and Z = 2. The crystal structure has been refined to RF = 0.037 for 3657 reflections.

Structural Aspects

Tris(ligand)iron(II) complexes of 2-(pyrazol-3-yl)pyridine (3ppH) and 3-(thiazol-2-yl)pyrazole (3tpH) undergo temperature-induced singlet (1A1) ⇔ quintet (5T2) transitions. The transition in [Fe(3ppH)3] [CF3SO3]2.2H2O is continuous and centred above room temperature while that in the anhydrous triflate salt is discontinuous and is centred below room temperature. The latter transition occurs via a thermal hysteresis loop of width 12 K, Tc↓ and Tc↑ being 229 and 241 K, respectively. The displacement of the transition to lower temperature in the anhydrous salt is believed to be associated with the loss of hydrogen bonding involving the uncoordinated pyrazole >NH group and solvate water. In [Fe(3tpH)2(3tp)] [ClO4].2H2O and [Fe(3tpH)2(3tp)] [BF4].2H2O (3tp is the deprotonated ligand) continuous transitions are observed, centred below room temperature. In these instances the displacement is consistent with the intrinsically weaker field of the bidentate system containing two five-membered heterocycles. Structural data were obtained for [Fe(3ppH)3][CF3SO3]2.2H2O, [Fe(3tpH)3] [BF4]2.1·5H2O and [Ni(3tpH)3] [BF4]2.2(3tpH). The average metal–nitrogen distances in the complexes are 1·97, 2·18 and 2·09 Å, severally. The large difference in the distances for the two iron complexes arises from the different ground states: a singlet for the 3ppH complex and a quintet for the 3tpH complex. In all three salts there is extensive hydrogen bonding involving the pyrazole >NH groups, the anions and the solvate molecules.

Polymorphic Modifications

The polymorphic study of 3-(3-phenyl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-yl)-2H-1-benzopyran-2-one, C17H11N3O2, was performed due to its potential biological activity and revealed three polymorphic modifications in the triclinic space group P\overline{1}, the monoclinic space group P21 and the orthorhombic space group Pbca. These polymorphs have a one-column layered type of crystal organization. The strongest interactions between the molecules of the studied structures is stacking between π-systems, while N—H...N and C—H...O hydrogen bonds link stacked columns forming layers as a secondary basic structural motif. C—H...π hydrogen bonds were observed between neighbouring layers and their role is the least significant in the formation of the crystal structure. Packing differences between the polymorphic modifications are minor and can be identified only using an analysis based on a comparison of the pairwise interaction energies.

The solvothermal reaction of MnCl2·4 H2O, K2Se3 and Se in trans-cyclohexane-1,2-diamine (chxn) at 433 K yields dark blue crystals of [Mn(chxn)3]Se6 (1), and the reaction of MnCl2 ・4 H2O, K2Se3 and Te under similar conditions gives dark blue crystals of [Mn(chxn)3]2[H2chxn](TeSe2)2Se (2). While compound (1) crystallises in the orthorhombic space group Pbcn with the lattice parameters a = 13.7017(9), b = 19.9073(8) and c = 10.8058(5)Å , compound (2) crystallises in the monoclinic space group P21 with the lattice parameters a = 9.4396(6), b = 24.2450(2), c = 12.8170(8) Å and β =91.6(1)◦. In both structures discrete complex cations and polychalcogenide anions are found. In (1) the Se62− anions form a pseudo-layer arrangement with nearly rectangular pores. The complex cations are encapsulated by the arrangement of the Se62− anions. Some short distances between the amino groups of the ligands and the anions indicate weak hydrogen bonding. In compound (2) two independent [Mn(chxn)3]2+ and one unique H2chxn dications, two unique TeSe22− as well as one Se2− dianion coexist. The two complex cations exhibit different conformations. One of the two TeSe22− anions has the di-protonated chxn molecule in the neighbourhood and short Se···H separations indicate weak hydrogen bonding. The isolated Se2− ion is located above the ring of the di-protonated trans-cyclohexane-1,2-diamine molecule and again a short Se···H separation may be due to a weak hydrogen bond. Compound (1) decomposes in a single step when heated in an Ar atmosphere. In contrast, the thermal decomposition of compound (2) is complex and at least five different steps can be identified.

Reaction of olean-12-ene-3β,16β,22α,28-tetrol ( chichipegenin ) (1) with methyl orthoformate gives the 16β,22α,28-orthoformate (2). Acetylation of the ortho ester followed by hydrolysis gives the tetrol 3β-monoacetate (5). It is shown that intramolecular hydrogen bonding occurs in the tetrol (1) and the 3β-monoacetate (5) in non-polar solvents. X-Ray crystallographic data on the tetrol and its tetraacetate (4) are reported. The tetrol,C30H50O4, M 474.72, crystallized in the orthorhombic space group P 212121 with a 12.363(6), b 31.888(3), c 6.962(3) Ǻ, V 2745(1) Ǻ3, Dc(Z = 4) 1.149 g cm-3, N = N(unique) 2394, No 1878 [I > 1.5σ(I)], Nvar 500; R 0.038, Rw 0.040. The tetraacetate , C38H58O8, M 642.87, crystallized in the monoclinic space group P 21, with a 10.603(2), b 16.569(1), c 10.814(1) Ǻ, β 98.72(1)°, V 1877.9(4) Ǻ3, Dc(Z = 2) 1.137g cm-3 N 3090, Rmerge 4.67% for N(unique) 2917, No 2663 [I > 2.5σ(I)], Nvar 414; R 0.053, Rw 0.050.
