A structural analysis of [(η-C5H5)2YMe2AlMe2] has been carried out by X- ray diffraction. Crystals are orthorhombic, space group Pna21, a 17.969(6), b 7.988(4), c 10.870(4) Ǻ, Z 4. The structure has been refined by a full-matrix least-squares procedure to R 0.052 for 663 observed reflections (Mo Kα automatic diffractometry). The structure contains a dimethyl bridge, the average bridging bond distances being 2.58(3) Ǻ for Y-C and 2.10(2) Ǻ for Al-C, and the Y-Al separation is 3.056(6) Ǻ.

Alkaline chlorination of the 4-alkyl-2,6-dichlorophenols (2b) and (2c) proceeds through ring contraction and halolactonization to form the 4α- alkyl-2,2,5α-trichloro-1α,3α-dihydroxycyclopentane-1,4-carbolactones (4b) and (4c). Under similar conditions, 2,4,6-trichlorophenol affords the analogous 2,2,4α,5α-tetrachloro-1α,3α-dihydroxycyclopentane-1,4- carbolactone (4a) in low yield, in addition to the Hantzsch acid (3a) as the major product. The acid (3a) upon further treatment undergoes chloro-lactonization to give the lactone (4a). The structures of the lactones (4b) and (4c) follow from spectroscopic comparison with (4a), the structure of which has been established by X-ray diffraction (C6H4Cl4O4 orthorhombic a 13.485(1), b 12.348(1), c 11.371(1) Ǻ, space group Pccn, Z 8, solved by direct methods and refined by block-diagonal and full-matrix least squares to R 0.031, Rw 0.043 for 1313 unique counter data with I/σ(I) ≥ 3.0).

The molecular and crystal structure of the [Pt(dien)Br]Br complex (dien = diethylenetriamine) has been studied by X-ray diffraction. The compound belongs to the orthorhombic Pca21 space group and the cell parameters are: a = 14.211, b = 4.940, c = 13.450 Å, and Z = 4. The refinement of the positional and anisotropic thermal parameters, carried out by full matrix least squares calculations, converged to R = 0.039 and Rw = 0.036.The coordination around the platinum atom is planar. The crystal consists of alternate layers of [Pt(dien)Br]+ cations and Br− ions parallel to the ac plane.

The crystal structure of the title compound, [Tl(S2CNEt2)3], has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods at 295 K and refined by full-matrix least squares to a residual of 0.050 for 2517 'observed' reflections. Crystals are monoclinic, with space group A2/a, a 14.789(7), b 10.428(4), c 18.207(9) Ǻ, β 118.11(4)°, Z 4, and are isostructural with those of the previously determined gallium and indium analogues, the molecule having 2 symmetry with <Tl-S> 2.666 Ǻ. As in the dimethyl/thallium analogue, the departure of the TlS6 core symmetry from 3 is large and is examined in terms of electron-pair repulsion theory.

The crystal structure of tetraethylammonium bromopentacarbonyltungstate (0), [NEt4] [W(CO)5Br], has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods at 22�1°C. Crystals are tetragonal, space group P4/n, with a 9.206(2), c 10.484(2) Ǻ, and Z 2. Full-matrix least-squares refinement gave a final R value of 0.034 for 820 independent reflections. The [W(CO)5Br]- anion possesses exact C4v symmetry, with bond lengths W-Br 2.736(1), W-COtrans 1.93(1) and W-COcis 2.034(6) Ǻ.

The crystal structure of the title compound, NaAg(NO2)2, has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction at 295(1) K and refined by full-matrix least squares to a residual of 0.043 for 449 'observed' reflections. Crystals are orthorhombic, space group Fd2d, a 7.913(2), b 10.721(2), c 10.857(3) �, Z 8. The structure is closely related to that of sodium and silver nitrites; the silver environment is dominated by the 'linear' coordination of a nitro group (Ag-N 2.25(2) �) and a 'chelating' pair of oxygen atoms from another NO2- species (Ag-O 2.422(8)�), the O2N-Ag-O2N group containing a crystallographic 2 axis.

The molecular and crystal structure of cis-dichlorobis (dimethylsulfoxide) platinum(II), cis-[PtCl2(DMSO)2], has been studied by X-ray diffraction. The compound belongs to the mono-clinic P21/c space group and the cell parameters are: a = 8.653, b = 13.580, c = 10.914 Å, β = 123.43°, and Z = 4. The refinement of the positional and anisotropic thermal parameters, carried out by full matrix least-squares calculations, converged to R = 0.029 and Rw = 0.027.The coordination around the platinum atom is planar. As expected, the DMSO molecules are bonded to the platinum atom through sulfur. The bond distances found are: Pt—Cl = 2.306, 2.312 Å; Pt—S = 2.244, 2.229 Å; S—O = 1.469, 1.454 Å, and S—C = 1.77 to 1.79 Å. The crystal consists of layers of molecules parallel to the ac plane.

The crystal structure of trans-[Pt(DMF)(2,6-lutidine)Cl2] has been determined by X-ray diffraction. The crystals are orthorhombic, space group Pbca, with a = 11.612(13), b = 26.504(33), c = 9.271(9) Å, and Z = 8. The structure was refined by full matrix least-squares analysis to a conventional R factor of 0.051 and a weighted Rw = 0.044. The coordination around the platinum atom is square planar. The 2,6-lutidine ring is perpendicular to the platinum plane. DMF is bonded to platinum through the oxygen atom. It is planar and makes an angle of 71 ° with the platinum plane. The cis–trans configuration of the [Pt(DMF)(L)Cl2] (L = pyridine derivative) complexes in DMF solution is discussed.

Abstractβ-Y(BO2)3 was synthesized in a Walker-type multianvil module at 5.9 GPa/1000°C. The crystal structure has been elucidated through single-crystal X-ray diffraction. β-Y(BO2)3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pnma (no. 62) with the lattice parameters a=15.886(2), b=7.3860(6), and c=12.2119(9) Å. Its crystal structure will be discussed in the context of the isotypic lanthanide borates β-Ln(BO2)3 (Ln=Nd, Sm, Gd–Lu).
