The crystal and molecular structure has been determined by X-ray diffractometry for the singlet ground state nickel(II) compound of a fifteen- membered tetraaza macrocyclic ligand , formed by reaction of a mixture of tris ( ethanediamine )nickel(II) and tris (propane-1,3- diamine )nickel(II) perchlorates with acetone. The compound, (1RS,8SR)- 5,7,7,13,15,15-hexamethyl-1,4,8,12-tetraazacyclopentadeca-4,12- diene )nickel(II) perchlorate hydrate, [Ni( hmpd )](ClO4)2.H2O, is monoclinic, space group P21/C, a 1158.76(14), b 1319.53(22), c 1630.35(21) pm, β 96.209(10)°, R 0.046, Rw 0.062 for 2798 reflections. The nickel(II) ion is in tetrahedrally distorted square-planar coordination [mean Ni-N distances 188.9 pm ( imine ), 191.9 pm (amine), displacements of nitrogens c. �20 pm from mean coordination plane]. Triplet ground state compounds [Ni( hmpd )( acac )]ClO4 and [{Ni( hmpd )}2C2O4](ClO4)2, with the macrocycle in folded coordination, were prepared and converted into an isomeric form of [Ni( hmpd )](ClO4)2. The 3,5,7,7,13,15,15-heptamethyl homologue of [Ni( hmpd )]2+ was prepared by reaction of tris (propane-1,2-diamine)- and tris (propane-1,3-diamine)- nickel(II) perchlorates with acetone. The electronic (d-d), 1H N.M.R. and 13C N.M.R . spectra of compounds of these macrocyclic cations, and of (5,5,7,13,15,15-hexamethyl-1,4,8,12-tetraazacyclopentadeca-7,12-diene) nickel(II) are reported.

Nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes of 1,4,8,11-tetraazaundecane, (L), react with acetone, diacetone alcohol or mesityl oxide to form complexes of the macrocyclic ligand 5,7,7-trimethyl-1,4,8,11-tetra- azacyclotetradec-4-ene. For the nickel(II) cation, singlet ground state, square planar, salts are formed with poorly coordinating anions such as tetrachlorozincate, and triplet ground state, pseudoocta- hedral compounds with coordinating anions. These occur as trans compounds (macrocycle in planar coordination) for the unidentate anions NCS-, N3- and Cl- and as cis compounds (macrocycle in folded coordination)for the chelating anions acetylacetonate and oxalate. Different configurations of the chiral nitrogen centres are optimum for planar and for folded coordination of the macrocycle.

Reaction of "cyclamphosphorane" (cyclamPH) with [Pt2Cl4(PEt3)2] yields [PtCl(PEt3)(cyclamPH)]Cl. The complex crystallizes as a dichloromethane solvate in the monoclinic space group P21/n, with a = 13.877(3), b = 23.231(7), c = 8.295(2)Å, β = 91.86(4)°, and an X-ray diffraction study shows square planar platinum coordination in which the labile proton of cyclamPH has transferred from phosphorus to nitrogen and the ligand is attached via simple [Formula: see text] chelation. The phosphorus is trans to chlorine in the platinum coordination plane.The corresponding product, trans-[PtCl2(PEt3)(cyclenPH2)]Cl, derived from reaction of "cyclenphosphorane" (cyclenPH) with [Pt2Cl4(PEt3)2], is shown by NMR studies to have a quite different structure in which the ligand is protonated at two nitrogen sites but not at phosphorus. The phosphorus is pentacoordinate with four attachments to nitrogen atoms and one to platinum. The two chlorine atoms are mutually trans in the platinum coordination plane. Keywords: crystal structure, cyclenphosphorane reaction, cyclamphosphorane reaction, X-ray diffraction.

Compounds of NiII with the macrocyclic ligand trans-6,13-dimethyl-6,13-dinitro-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane ( dino ), which is formed by condensation of bis (ethane-1,2-diamine)nickel(II) salts, nitroethane and formaldehyde, are described, together with homologues formed by substituting propane-1,2-diamine and/or 1-nitropropane. The nitro functions of [Ni( dino )]2+ were reduced by catalytic hydrogenation to form (trans-6,13-diamino-6,13-dimethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane)nickel(II), [Ni( diam )]2+, isolated as approximately equal amounts of two isomeric forms; designated α (with the R,S,R,S configuration of the chiral nitrogen centres, overall configuration 1α,4α,6β,8α,11α,13α), and β (with the R,R,S,S, 1α,4β,6α,8β,11α,13β configuration). The α-isomer is metastable, and in solution isomerizes to the β-isomer, with rate constant of 5.0(5)×10-5 s-1 in 2 mol l.-1. NaCl solution at 50°C, the rate of this reaction increasing in both acid and base. Protonation constants (pK at 25°C in 0.1 mol l.-1 NaClO4) for diam are 11.2(1), 9.7(1), 6.2(1), 5.3(1), and for the isomeric nickel(II) cations are α 4.94(2), 2.4(5); and β 4.5(1), 4.0(1). Compounds of diam with the β-configuration were prepared with triplet ground state NiII with diam in hexadentate coordination (e.g. β-[Ni(diam-N4)] Cln ) and in tetradentate coordination with the neutral (e.g. trans-β-[Ni(diam-N4)(NCS)2]) or diprotonated ligand (e.g. trans-β-[Ni(diamH2-N4)(NCS)2](CNS)2). Compounds prepared with the α-configuration with triplet ground-state NiII had pentadentate diam with the neutral (e.g. trans-α-[Ni(diam-N5)(H2O)]Cl2) or monoprotonated ligand (e.g. trans-α-[Ni(diamH-N5) Cl ] (ClO4)2). Singlet ground-state NiII compounds with the square planar diprotonated ligand were prepared for both configurations. Structures are reported for β-[Ni(diam-N6)](ClO4)2(H2O), R 0.062 for 5708 reflections; β-[Ni(diam-N6)] [ZnCl4].1.5H2O, R 0.064 for 4332 reflections; β-[Ni(diam-N6)]Cl2.6H2O, R 0.044 for 2001 reflections; trans-β-[Ni(diam-N4)(NCS)2] R 0.056 for 1521 reflections; and trans-α-[Ni(diamH-N5) Cl ](ClO4)2(H2O), R 0.047 for 2667 reflections.

Copper(II) and nickel(II) compounds, [M(L)]2+, of the macrocyclic ligand 6,8,8,13,13,15-hexamethyl-1,2,4,5,9,12-hexaazacyclopentadeca-5,15(1)-diene are formed by reaction of compounds of 4,4,9,9-tetramethyl-5,8-diazadodecane-2,11-dione dihydrazone with methanal. Analogous reactions with aldehydes RHCO, or ketones RR′CO, form compounds of 3-R or 3-RR′ substituted ligands, [M(r- L)]2+ or [M(rr′-L)]2+, respectively. The nickel(II) cations form singlet ground state salts, e.g. [Ni(L)]X2, X = [ClO4]- or ½[ZnCl4]2-, and also triplet ground state compounds, e.g. [Ni(L) (NCS)2] and [Ni(L)(X)] (ClO4) (X = NO2-, C2O42-, N3-, etc.). The structures of [Cu(L)] (ClO4)2, [Ni(L)] (ClO4)2, the 3-propyl compound formed from butanal, [Cu(pr-L)] (ClO4)2.H2O, and the compounds of 9,11,11,16,16,18-hexamethyl-7,8,12,15,19,20-hexaazaspiro[5.14]eicosa-8,18(1)-diene (chex-L), formed from cyclohexanone, namely [Cu(chex-L)] (ClO4)2.MeOH, [Ni(chex-L)] (ClO4)2, and [Ni(chex-L)] (ClO4)2.MeOH, were determined. All have the metal ions in tetrahedrally twisted square-planar coordination, by N1, N5, N9 and N12 , with N9N12-rac, for the (L) and (pr-L) compounds, or by the structurally equivalent N3, N7, N10 and N14, with N7N10-rac, for the (chex-L) compounds. The [Cu(L)]2+ and [Cu(pr-L)]2+cations have saddle-like macrocycle conformations, with approximate mirror symmetry, while the other compounds have ′twisted′ macrocycle conformations with approximate twofold symmetry {[Cu(L)] (ClO4)2, C15H32Cl2CuN6O8, orthorhombic,P 212121, a 8·562(7), b 13·096(8), c 20·257(6) Å, Z 4, R 0·041 for 1540 reflections; [Ni(L)] (ClO4)2, C15H32Cl2N6NiO8, orthorhombic, P21/n, a 13·500(3), b 9·207(2), c 19·478(5) Å, β 103·94(2)°, Z 4, R1 0·055 for 2650 reflections; [Cu(Pr-L)] (ClO4)2.H2O, C18H40Cl2CuN6O9, monoclinic, C 2, a 24·229(5), b 13·780(3), c 8·877(2) Å, β 108·79(3)°, Z 4, R1 0·067 for 1765 reflections; [Cu(chex-L)] (ClO4)2.MeOH, C21H44Cl2CuN6O9, monoclinic, C 2/c, a 17·086(5), b 24·539(2), c 14·496(1) Å, β 89·94(2), Z 8, R1 0·072 for 2521 reflections; [Ni(chex-L)] (ClO4)2, C20H40Cl2N6NiO8, monoclinic, P 21/c, a 14·820(2), b 18·599(4), c 10·282(1) Å, β 106·26(1)°, Z 4, R1 0·067 for 2552 reflections; [Ni(chex-L)] (ClO4)2.MeOH, C21H44Cl2CuN6O9, monoclinic, C 2/c, a 14·451(2), b 24·11(2), c 16·740(3) Å, β 90·14(1)°, Z 8, R1 0·064 for 2598 reflections}.

Reduction of 4,4,12,12-tetramethyl-5,8,11-triazapentadecane-2,14-dione diperchlorate by sodium borohydride yields as the major product one isomer of 4,4-dimethyl-7-(5,5,7-trimethyl-1,2-diazepam 1-yl)-5-azaheptan-2-ol, pyaz. The coordination compounds [M(pyaz)] (ClO4), and [Ni(pyaz)(NCS)] CNS (M = NiII, CuII) were prepared, the latter being assigned five-coordinate structures. The structure of singlet ground state [Ni(pyaz)] (ClO4)2 was determined by X-ray diffraction [space group P212121, Z 4, a 1450.8(2), b 1522.2(1), c 1048.5(1) pm, R 0.0675, Rw 0.0768 for 2461 reflections]. The compound has a square-planar coordination arrangement, with the three nitrogen and the oxygen donor atoms of the pyaz ligand approximately coplanar [Ni-O 190.0(6) pm; Ni-N 192.8(6), 189.2(6), 189.2(6) pm in sequence N(5) of chain, N(l), N(4) of diazepane]. The diazepane ring adopts a boat conformation. One side of the nickel(II) coordination plane is sterically crowded by the presence of two axial methyl substituents. The ligand has two non-equivalent chiral centres (C(14) of the diazepane ring and C(2) of the amine alcohol chain), both present in the R configuration in the crystal studied. The three nitrogen atoms, which became chiral centres upon coordination, are present in the S configuration for two diazepane nitrogen atoms and in the R configuration for the 5-aza chain nitrogen.

The crystal and molecular structure of the palladium(II) complex have been established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The compound crystallized along with a 1,2-dichloroethane solvent of crystallization. The coordination plane of the PdII atom shows a slight tetrahedral distortion from square-planar, as indicated by the dihedral angle between the PdCl2 and PdN2 planes of 4.19 (8)°. The chelate ring is folded along the N...N vector by 7.1 (1)°.

Reaction of a DMF solution of Cu(S2CNC4H8) with [Ph4P]2[WSe4] affords [Ph4P]2[WSe4- (CuS2CNC4H8)3] (1) and [Ph4P][Cu(SeS2CNC4H )(S2CN2C4H8)] (2) in which a Se atom from the decomposition of the WSe42- anion has reacted with the pyrrolidyldithiocarbamate (C4H8dtc) ligand anion to form the new ligand anion SeS2CNC4H8⊖. Complex 2 crystallizes with four formula units in the monoclinic space group P21/c in a cell of dimensions a = 10.5824(2), b = 18.7575(3), c = 18.3268(4) Å and ß = 109.0980(10)°. 6055 independent reflections above background were measured with a diffractometer and the structure was refined anisotropically to R =0.073. The anion contains a three-coordinated copper(I) atom. The C4H8dtc⊖ ligand is bonded to the Cu+ cation in a terminal fashion, while SeS2CNC4H8⊖ chelates the Cu+ cation. The Se-S bond length is 2.231 (4) Å.
