The structural characterisation of bis(8-sulfanylquinolinium) hexachloridostannate(iv) (2) is reported and the variable reaction behaviour of this compound in different solvents has been explored. In particular, attempted recrystallization of 2 from chloroform and dichloromethane affords two polymorphs of cis-dichloridobis(8-quinolinethiolato)tin(iv), 3m and 3t, respectively. Attempted recrystallization of 2 from methanol gives crystals of 8,8′-dithiodiquinolinium hexachloridostannate(iv) 4. When 2 is dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide in the presence of air, it undergoes oxidation to afford diquinolinyl-8,8′-disulfide 5. The molecular structures of the isolated compounds 2–4 are unambiguously authenticated by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The electronic structure properties of all the isolated compounds 2–4 are thoroughly studied by DFT calculations.

The synthesis of the triarylphosphine, P(p-C6H4SF5)3 containing a SF5 group, has been achieved. The experimental and theoretical studies showed that P(p-C6H4SF5)3 is a weaker σ-donor when compared with other substituted triarylphosphines, which is consistent with the electron-withdrawing effect of the SF5 moiety. The studies also revealed a moderate air stability of the phosphine. The σ-donor capabilities of P(p-C6H4SF5)3 were estimated from the phosphorus-selenium coupling constant in SeP(p-C6H4SF5)3 and by DFT calculations. The behavior of P(p-C6H4SF5)3 as ligand has been investigated by the synthesis of the iridium and rhodium complexes [MCl(COD){P(p-C6H4SF5)3}], [MCl(CO)2{P(p-C6H4SF5)3}2] (M = Ir, Rh), or [Rh(µ-Cl)(COE){P(p-C6H4SF5)3}]2, and the molecular structures of [IrCl(COD){P(p-C6H4SF5)3}] and [Rh(µ-Cl)(COE){P(p-C6H4SF5)3}]2 were determined by single X-ray diffraction. The structures revealed a slightly larger cone angle for P(p-C6H4SF5)3 when compared to other para-substituted triarylphosphines.

Crystal data for (PPh3)2CuBr2Cu(PPh3) (1) show that the crystals are iso-morphous with the previously studied chloro analogue, being monoclinic, P21/c, a 19.390(8), b 9.912(5), c 26.979(9) Ǻ, β 112,33(3)°; R 0.043 for No 3444. Cu( trigonal )- P;Br respectively are 2.191(3); 2.409(2), 2.364(2) Ǻ. Cu(tetrahedral)- P;Br respectively are 2.241(3), 2.249(3); 2.550(2), 2.571(2) Ǻ. Crystals of 'step' [PPh3CuBr]4 (2) are isomorphous with the solvated bromo and unsolvated iodo analogues, being monoclinic, C2/c, a 25.687(10), b 16.084(7), c 17.815(9) Ǻ, β 110.92(3)°; R 0.072 for No 3055. Cu( trigonal )- P;Br respectively are 2.206(5); 2.371(3), 2.427(2) Ǻ. Cu(tetrahedral)- P;Br are 2.207(4); 2.446(2), 2.676(3), 2.515(3) Ǻ.

The structure of the thermoelectric lamellar misfit cobalt oxide [Ca2CoO3][CoO2]1.62 was refined again using single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. A new commensurate intrinsic modulation was observed involving a modulation vector orthogonal to the misfit direction (⅔,0,−⅓). The five-dimensional superspace group is C2/m(1δ0)(α0γ)gm and the structure was solved using a commensurate approximation. A new model is given involving an occupation modulation of the split sites of the [CoO] layer. This [CoO] layer can be described by triple chains running along b. The residual disorder along b can then be explained by the assumption of a local ordering with two types of clusters: CoO2 and Co5O4. A powder neutron diffraction experiment confirmed the ordering evidenced by the single-crystal X-ray diffraction study, but was not sufficient by itself to deal with this double modulated scheme. The new intrinsic modulation is destroyed by partial metal substitutions in the [CoO] layer. The structural modifications of this layer directly influence the physical properties which are related to the electronic structure of the [CoO2] layers.

The crystal structure of the gadolinium iron bismuthide Gd6FeBi2 has been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction data and analyzed in detail using first-principles calculations. The structure is isotypic with the Zr6CoAl2 structure, which is a variant of the ZrNiAl structure and its binary prototype Fe2P (Pearson code hP9, Wyckoff sequence g f d a). As such, the structure is best viewed as an array of tricapped trigonal prisms of Gd atoms centered alternately by Fe and Bi. The magnetic-ordering temperature of this compound (ca 350 K) is much higher than that of other rare-earth metal-rich phases with the same or related structures. It is also higher than the ordering temperature of many other Gd-rich ternary phases, where the magnetic exchange is typically governed by Ruderman–Kittel–Kasuya–Yosida (RKKY) interactions. First-principles calculations reveal a larger than expected Gd magnetic moment, with the additional contribution arising from the Gd 5d electrons. The electronic structure analysis suggests strong Gd 5d–Fe 3d hybridization to be the cause of this effect, rather than weak interactions between Gd and Bi. These details are of importance for understanding the magnetic response and explaining the high ordering temperature in this material.

Platinum(II) complex of benzimidazole-derived N-heterocyclic carbene with formula [PtCl2(DMSO)(bimy)] was successfully synthesized via one pot reaction between 1,3-diisopropyl benzimidazolium (bimy×HBr), Ag2O and [PtCl2(DMSO)] (DMSO = dimethyl sulfoxide). The complex was characterized by means of multinuclear (1H and 13C{1H}) magnetic resonance and single crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD). The UV-Vis absorption spectra of the compound show an absorption shoulder above 300 nm. Under excitation by 285 nm UV lamp, solution of the compound in DCM is highly emissive showing emission maxima at around 410 nm. DFT calculations were also carried out for the complex to gain insight on its electronic structure and the nature of electronic transition involved in the absorption/emission process.
