The crystal structures of the herbicide, dicamba (3,6-dichloro-2-methoxybenzoic acid) and the zinc(II) complex of this acid, {[Zn(dicamba)2(H2O)3].2H2O}}n (1), have been determined from X-ray diffraction data and refined by least squares to final residuals of 0.034 and 0.043 respectively. Dicamba is triclinic, space group P1, Z 2 with a cell a 7.232(1), b 7.971(1), c 9.050(3) �, α 102.76(3), β 91.33(3), γ 110.38(1)�, while (1) is monoclinic, space group P21/n, Z 4 with a cell a 10.467(1), b 8.135(3), c 28.079(2) �, β 96.497(7)�. Dicamba forms hydrogen-bonded cyclic dimers [O---O, 2.655(7) �] with the carboxyl and the methoxy groups synclinal to the benzene ring. The dicamba ligands retain their conformation in the ZnII complex and are cis-related and unidentate [Zn-0,2.083,2.095(4) �]. Three of the waters are coordinated [Zn-0, 2.036, 2.055, 2.099(4) �] with one of these also acting as a bridging ligand between the octahedral zinc centres [Zn-0, 2.326(4) �], giving a 'linear' polymer structure [Zn-0-Zn bridge angle, 133.6(3)�]. The MnII and CoII complexes of dicamba [(2) and (3)] have been confirmed as isomorphous and isostructural with the ZnII analogue.

Hexaphenylcarbodiphosphorane Ph3P=C=PPh3 (1) forms deeply coloured, crystalline 1:1 ad- ducts with elemental sulfur, selenium and tellurium (2, 3 and 7, respectively). A superior method of synthesis for 7 is the reaction of Na2Te with (Ph3P)2CCl⊕Cl⊖. All three compounds are thermally unstable and decompose at or below room temperature. A selenium adduct 5 was also obtained with Me3P = C = PPh, (4). The compounds 2 and 3 can be alkylated at the chalkogen atoms using MeOSO2F or PhCH2Cl. Oxydation of 3 leads to Se - Se coupling.Addition of elemental iodine to 1 in molar ratios 1:1. 2:3 and 1:2 affords salt-like products composed of the (Ph2P)2Cl⊕ cation associated with I⊖ and/or I3⊖ anions (8a-c).The crystal and molecular structures of 3 and 8b have been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. 3′, containing one half equivalent of disordered tetrahydrofuran, crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/n (a = 10.848(6), b = 17.433(8). c = 16.848(9) Å, β = 91.51(5)°. V = 3185.07 Å3, ϱx = 1359 gcm-3, Z = 4). Based on 3488 structure factors, the final R value was 0.103. The selenium is attached to the ylidic carbon atom without major changes of the Ph3P=C=PPh3 skeleton (C - Se = 1.99 Å). 8b crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1̄ (a = 9.935(2). b = 11.507(2), c = 16.646(3) Å, α = 90.91(1), β = 112.00(1), γ = 96.60(1)°, V = 1749.15 A3, ϱx = 1.741 gcm-3, Z = 2). Refinement of 382 parameters on 5096 structure factors converged at R = 0.043. The molecular structure shows close similarities to the selenium adduct 3 (C-I = 2.12 Å).

The crystal structures of N,N′-di(2-acetylcyclohexenyl)ethylenediamine (L1) and its copper(II) complex, which crystallizes with one solvent molecule of chloroform (Cu(L1-2H)•CHCl3), were determined. Crystallographic details are as follows: L1 is monoclinic, space group P21/c, with a = 8.280(2), b = 11.692(2), and c = 9.355(2) Å, β = 114.10(2)°, V = 826.7(3) Å3, Z = 2; ρc = 1.22 g cm−3, μ(Cu Kα) = 5.93 cm−1, with the final residual indices of R = 0.046 and Rw = 0.070 for 991 unique reflections. Cu(L1-2H)•CHCl3 is triclinic, space group[Formula: see text] with a = 11.121(3), b = 11.713(3), and c = 8.974(2) Å, α = 99.35(2)°, β = 110.83(2)°, γ = 82.33(2)°, V = 1074(1) Å3, Z = 2; ρc = 1.50 g cm−3, μ(Cu Kα) = 50.74 cm−1, with the final residual indices of R = 0.048 and Rw = 0.077 for 2369 unique reflections. The X-ray diffraction study shows that in the crystal state the ligand L1 is in the methylketonecyclohexanonenamine isomeric form. For the copper complex Cu(L1 2H)•CHC13, the geometry around the metal atom is distorted square planar, and the angle between the chelate ring planes in the complex is 15.1°. An NMR study shows that L1 in solution has the same structure as that observed in the solid state by X-ray diffraction.

The E- and Z-isomers of an iodo-Tamoxifen 1 (1-(p-(β-dimethylaminoethoxy)phenyl)-2-(p-iodophenyl)-1-phenyl-1-butenes) have been prepared from the corresponding E- and Z-amino-Tamoxifens 2 (2-(p-aminophenyl)-1-(p-(β-dimethylaminoethoxy)phenyl)-1-phenyl-1-butenes) and the molecular structures have been determined from three dimensional X-ray data. Crystals of E-1 are triclinic, space group [Formula: see text], with Z = 2 in a cell of dimensions a = 10.714(2), b = 14.125(3), c = 8.240(2) Å, α = 95.78(1), β = 92.91(1), and γ = 71.41(1)°; those of Z-1 are monoclinic, space group P21/n, with Z = 4 and cell dimensions a = 12.675(2), b = 19.553(3), c = 9.483(1) Å, and β = 92.22(1)°. Intensity data collected on an automated four circle diffractometer were used for full-matrix least-squares refinement on F, which converged for E-1 at R = 0.054, 2736 observations, and for Z-1 at R = 0.042, 3644 observations. The solution of these structures determines the configuration of these isomers as well as the respective amino precursors and allows an unambiguous assignment of the proton nmr spectra of 1, 2 and the Tamoxifens.

The structures of two crystalline modifications of mer -(Pme2Ph)3H-cis-Cl2IrIII, (1), have been determined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. Modification (A) is monoclinic, space group P21/c with a 12.635(1), b 30.605(3), c 14.992(2)Ǻ, β 110.01(2)° and Z = 8. Modification (B) is orthorhombic, space group Pbca with a 27.646(3), b 11.366(1), c 17.252(2)Ǻ and Z = 8. The structures were solved by conventional heavy atom techniques and refined by full-matrix least- squares analyses to conventional R values of 0.037 [(A), 8845 independent reflections] and 0.028 [(B), 5291 independent reflections]. Important bond lengths [Ǻ] are Ir -P(trans to Cl ) 2.249(1) av. (A) and 2.234(1) (B), Ir -P(trans to PMe2Ph) 2.339(2) av. (A) and 2.344(1), 2.352(1) (B), Ir-Cl (trans to H) 2.492(2), 2.518(2) (A) and 2.503(1) (B) and Ir-Cl (trans to PMe2Ph)2.452(2) av. (A) and 2.449(1)(B). Differences in chemically equivalent metal- ligand bond lengths emphasize the importance of non-bonded contacts in determining those lengths.

Two new saccharinato-silver(I) (sac) complexes, [Ag(sac)(ampy)] (1), and [Ag2(sac)2(μ-aepy)2] (2), [ampy = 2-(aminomethyl)pyridine, aepy = 2-(2-aminoethyl)pyridine], have been prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, thermal analysis and single crystal X-ray diffraction. Complexes 1 and 2 crystallize in the monoclinic space group P21/c and triclinic space group P1̄, respectively. The silver(I) ions in both complexes 1 and 2 exhibit a distorted T-shaped AgN3 coordination geometry. 1 consists of individual molecules connected into chains by N-H···O hydrogen bonds. There are two crystallographically distinct dimers in the unit cell of 2 and in each dimer, the aepy ligands act as a bridge between two silver(I) centers, resulting in short argentophilic contacts [Ag1···Ag1 = 3.0199(4) Å and Ag2···Ag2 = 2.9894(4) Å ]. Symmetry equivalent dimers of 2 are connected by N-H···O hydrogen bonds into chains, which are further linked by aromatic π(py)···π(py) stacking interactions into sheets.

The structures of Au(4-C≡CC6H4XYC6H4-4′-NO2)(PPh3) (XY = (E )-CH=CH (1), (Z)-CH=CH (2), C≡C (3), N=CH (4)) have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses, refining by full-matrix least-squares analysis. For (1), crystals are triclinic, space group P-1, with a8·847(1), b 17·870(4), c 19·705(3) Å, α116·25(1), β 93·33(1), γ 92·64(2)˚, Z 4, 6747 unique reflections (703 parameters), converging at R 0·025 and Rw 0·029. For (2), crystals are monoclinic, space group P 21/a, with a 10·718(6), b 19·398(5), c14·469(3) Å, β 108·96(2)˚, Z 4, 3295 unique reflections (352 parameters), converging atR 0·040 and Rw 0·034. For (3), crystals are triclinic, space group P-1, with a 10·671(4), b 17·599(7), c 18·220(8) Å, α 116·31(3), β 105·00(4), γ 95·08(4)˚, Z 4, 4828 unique reflections (703 parameters), converging at R 0·043 and Rw 0·030. For (4), crystals are triclinic, space group P-1, with a 8·8314(6), b 17·834(2), c 20·001(2) Å, α 115·249(7), β 90·930(7), γ 94·082(7)˚, Z 4, 4724 unique reflections (703 parameters), converging at R 0·035 and Rw 0·034. Despite the [ligated metal donor]-bridge-[nitro acceptor] composition of these complexes, Au–C and C≡C distances are normal and consistent with minimal allenylidene contribution to the ground-state geometry. Within the 3σ confidence limits, the structural data do not provide evidence for π*-back-bonding in these complexes

Upon UV irradiation in THF at 208 K tricarbonyl(η5-2,4-dimethyl-2,4-pentadien-1-yl)- manganese (1) yields solvent stabilized, very reactive dicarbonyl(η5-2,4-dimethyl-2,4-pentadien-1-yl)(tetrahydrofuran)manganese (2), which reacts in situ with one or two molecules of diphenylacetylene (3) and yields four manganese complexes and 1,3-dimethyl-5,6-diphenyl-bicyclo[3.2.1]oct-2-ene-7-one (5), which were separated by HPL chromatography. In addition to tricarbonyl η5-4,6 -dimethyl-1,2-diphenyl-cyclohepta-2,4-dien-1-yl)manganese (4) formed by [5+2]cycloaddition and successive 1,4-H shift, tricarbonyl{ 1′,2′,5′-η-5-methyl-2,3 -diphenyl-5- (2′-methyl-4′,5′-diphenyl-penta-1′,4′-dien-1′,5′-diyl)cyclopent-2-en-1 -one-κ-O}manganese (6) is isolated with a ligand, formed from 2,4-dimethyl-2,4-pentadien-1-yl, two units of 3 and one carbon monoxide. The ligands of tricarbonyl{ 1-4,2′-η-4,6 -dimethyl-1,2-diphenyl-5-(E-1′,2′- diphenyl-vinylen)cyclohepta-1,3-diene}manganese (7), and tricarbonyl{η5-4,6 -dimethyl-1,2-diphenyl-7-(E-1′,2′-diphenyl-vinyl)cyclohepta-2,4-dien-1-yl}m anganese (8) are formed from 2,4-dimethyl-2,4-pentadien-1-yl and of two molecules of 3 each. The crystal and molecular structures of 5 and 6 have been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. 5 crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1̅ , a = 992.0(2) pm, b = 996.8(2) pm, c = 1021.0(2) pm, a = 77.67(3)°, β = 61.17(3)°, γ = 88.68(3)°. Complex 6 crystallizes also in the triclinic space group P1̅ ,a = 1023.2(2) pm, b - 1113.8(2) pm, c = 1567.9(3) pm, α = 82.88(3)°, β = 86.93(3)°, 7 = 63.53(3)°. The constitutions of 4, 7 and 8 were elucidated from the IR, NMR and mass spectra. Possible formation mechanisms for the compounds 4-8 are proposed. Complex 7 shows hindered rotations of two phenyl groups with different barriers of energy ΔG≠316 = 68.8 kJ/mol, „ΔH≠ = 67.9 ± 0.7 kJ/mol, ΔS≠ = -2 ± 2 J/mol · K and ΔG≠296 = 60.6 kJ/mol, ΔH≠ = 57.7 ± 1.0 kJ/mol, ΔS≠ = -10 ± 2 J/mol·K due to steric interactions.

The structures of three tetramethylammonium salts containing anions of formula [(μ-SePh)6(MSePh)4]2− (M = Zn and Cd) were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. The Zn salt crystallizes in different space groups depending upon the solvent combination used in the synthesis. Thus crystals of (Me4N)2[Zn4(SePh)10], 1, grown from a mixture of methanol, acetonitrile, and acetone are triclinic, space group [Formula: see text] with cell dimensions a = 13.214(2), b = 23.859(2), c = 13.072(1) Å, α = 91.134(8), β = 113.350(8), γ = 79.865(9)°, and Z = 2. In the absence of acetone, a solvated crystal (Me4N)2[Zn4(SePh)10]•CH3CN, 2, is formed, which belongs to the monoclinic space group P21/n with a = 14.248(1), b = 39.722(2), c = 13.408(1) Å, β = 97.132(5)°, and Z = 4. The Cd salt (Me4N)2[Cd4(SePh)10], 3, crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c, with a = 20.830(2), b = 14.282(1), c = 25.872(1) Å, β = 99.626(6)°, and Z = 4. These three salts are the first examples of homoleptic, tetranuclear selenolatometal(II) anions with (μ-Se)6M4 cages of adamantane-type stereochemistry. In each case the phenyl substituents of the bridging ligands adopt the configuration [aae, aae, aee, aee], which has the minimum number of two 1,3-axial–axial non-bonding substituent interactions. Keywords: selenolate complexes, synthesis, X-ray crystallography, isomerism, adamantane stereochemistry.

The crystal structures of the title compounds were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. The molecule of the Z isomer, which crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with Z = 4 in a cell of dimensions a = 14.891 (2), b = 10.780(2), c = 8.769(1) Å, β = 97.47(2)°, V = 1395.7(7) Å3 has crystallographic twofold symmetry. The E form crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbca with a = 11.730(1), b = 6.932(1), c = 16.841(1) Å, V = 1369.4(2) Å3 and Z = 4. Its molecules have crystallographically dictated [Formula: see text] symmetry. In both isomers the phenyl rings are roughly perpendicular to the average ethylene plane. The atoms characterizing this plane show significant deviations from planarity in the Z isomer. Marked bond-angle distortions at the ethene carbons of both structures are observed. The 1H and 13C NMR spectra of the compounds were measured and, particularly in the case of the 1H chemical shifts, fall into two quite separate spectral regions. At low temperature, two conformational isomers, those with different relative orientation of the C—Cl bonds of the phenyl rings, are observed in the spectrum of each compound. Keywords: chlorostilbenes, overcrowded molecules. X-ray structure, conformations, NMR spectroscopy.
