Crystals of methyl[tetrakis(pyrazol-l-yl)borato-N,N']mercury(II) [MeHg(B(pz)4}] are triclinic, Pi, a 12.73(2), b 8.88(1), c 8.10(1) �, α 109.80(8), β 99.16(9), γ 103.05(10)�, Z 2. The structure, determined by single-crystal X-ray methods (R 0.12 for 1598 'observed' reflections), has molecules of MeHg(B(pz)4} with two pz groups coordinated to mercury, giving planar but irregular coordination. The more strongly bound group has Hg-N 2.07(4) A with C-Hg-N 169(2)�, and the other group has Hg-N 2.65(4)� with C-Hg-N 112(1)�.

The crystal structure of the cubic compound [N(CH3)4]2CsFe(CN)6 was determined by X-ray methods: a = 2527.4(6) pm, space group Fd3c, Z = 32, Rg = 0.028 (260 independent single crystal reflections). The resulting distances within the practically undistorted Fe (CN)63- - octahedron are Fe-C = 193.4(6) and C-N = 115.7(7) pm. Compared to the ideal elpasolite structure of space group Fm3m, Z = 4, the octahedra are rotated by 7.4° through their 3 axis. This is discussed as caused by steric requirements of the tetramethylammonium groups (N-C = 148.4(10) and 149.1(38) pm, resp.). Three quarters of them, of which also the hydrogen positions could be located, are well oriented. The remaining quarter shows orientational disorder to approach similar contact distances as the other N(CH3)4+ ion exhibits between the methyl groups and the nitrogen ends of the anions

The crystal structure of µ-oxobis(cis-dichloro-cis-di(pyridine)-trans-oxorhenium(V)), ORe(C5H5N)2Cl2•O•Re(C5H5N)2Cl2O bas been studied by single crystal X-ray methods. The crystals were orthorhombic with lattice parameters a = 15.367(2), b = 10.283(2), c = 16.685(2) Å. The space group was Pna21 and there were four formula weights per unit cell. A total of 3339 reflections, of which 2990 were observed, were examined, and the structure refined by full matrix least squares (treating the pyridine rings as groups) to an R2 value of 0.0449. The dimer had a roughly rectilinear O—Re—O—Re—O backbone with pairs of chlorine atoms and pyridine molecules arranged cis in each half of the dimer. The two halves of the dimer were arranged such that the pairs of cis atoms in one half were rotated about the Re(1)–Re(2) axis almost 113 ° when compared to the corresponding pair in the other half. Important bond lengths (Re—O(terminal), 1.715(16), 1.764(16); Re—O(bridging), 1.943(16), 1.903(16); Re—Cl, 2.356(5)–2.390(5); Re—N, 2.116(16)–2.180(16)) were close to previously observed values. The molecule was markedly disturbed from the idealized structure and this was caused by intramolecular non-bonded interactions.

Isoguanine, an analogue of guanine, is of intrinsic interest as a noncanonical nucleobase. The crystal structure of isoguaninium chloride (systematic name: 6-amino-2-oxo-1H,7H-purin-3-ium chloride), C5H6N5O+·Cl−, has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Structure analysis was supported by electrostatic interaction energy (E es) calculations based on charge density reconstructed with the UBDB databank. In the structure, two kinds of molecular tapes are observed, one parallel to (010) and the other parallel to (50\overline{4}). The tapes are formed by dimers of isoguaninium cations interacting with chloride anions. E es analysis indicates that cations in one kind of tape are oriented so as to minimize repulsive electrostatic interactions.

The crystal structure of the title compound, Ca(C6H2N307)2,5H2O, has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction at 295(1) K and refined by least squares to a residual of 0.049 for 1513 'observed' reflections. Crystals are orthorhombic, Pmab, a 24.169(6), b l0.292(7), c 8.554(2) �, Z 4. The stereochemistry about the calcium has not been observed previously for the system [M(bidentate)2- (unidentate)4]; in the present structure, the calcium is coordinated by a pair of bidentate picrate ligands and the four water molecules in an array in which three of the water molecules occupy a triangular face of a square antiprism, the overall array having m symmetry. The remaining water molecule occupies a lattice site with no close interaction with the other species.

Rb[(Zr6C)Cl15] was prepared by heating ZrCl4, Zr powder, RbCl and Al4C3 at 850 °C for 21 days. The crystal structure was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction (space group Pmma, a = 18.484(3), b = 18.962(2), c = 9.708(1) Å, V = 2505.4(6) Å3, and Z = 4). Rb[(Zr6C)Cl15] crystallises in the Cs[Nb6Cl15]-type structure. It is built up from two interconnected types of cluster chains, one with linear Zr−Cla−a-Zr bridges, the other one with bent bridges. The rubidium cations are spread over three different sites within the cluster network which differs significantly from the cation distribution in the comparable potassium and caesium phases. The cation distribution can be rationalised considering the size of the cavities and the Coulombic interactions.

SummaryThe crystal structure of coalingite (Mg10Fe2(OH)24(CO3)·2H2O) has been determined using single-crystal X-ray methods. The mineral is trigonal, with space group Rm, aH = 3·12, cH = 37·4 Å, Z = ½, and (0001) cleavage. The structure is of a layer type, and is based on a structural element about 12·5 Å thick in the c-direction and consisting of two brucite-like layers and one disordered layer containing carbonate ions and water molecules and resembling those in sjögrenite and pyroaurite. The unit cell comprises three of these structural elements stacked together in the c-direction. The Mg2+ and Fe3+ ions are randomly distributed among all the octahedral sites of the brucite-like layers. The structure closely resembles those of sjögrenite and pyroaurite, but has two brucite-like layers between each CO32−−H2O layer where these have one. There is a tendency to random interstratification, and the crystals appear to contain intergrown regions of brucite and of sjögrenite or pyroaurite. Coalingite-K probably has a similar structure, but with three brucite-like layers between each -H2O layer; its idealized formula is probably Mg16Fe2(OH)36(CO3).2H2O.

Phosphorothionic triamide SP(NH2)3 is obtained by slow addition of SPCl3 dissolved in dry CH2Cl2 to a satured solution of NH3 in CH2Cl2 at —50°C. Ammonium chloride is removed from the resulting precipitate by treatment with HNEt2 followed by extraction with CH2Cl2. Coarse crystalline SP(NH2)3 is obtained after recrystallization from dry methanol. The crystal structure of SP(NH2)3 has been determined by single crystal X-ray methods (Pbca; a = 922.3(1), b = 953.8(1), c = 1058.4(2) pm, Z = 8). In the crystals the molecules show non-crystallographic point symmetry C8. The P—S bond (195.4(1) pm) is slightly longer than in SPCl3. From P—N bond lengths of about 166 pm a significant electrostatic strengthening of the P—N single bonds is assumed. Weak intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions (N —H · · · N ≥ 329.5 pm; N — H · · · S ≥ 348.3 pm) are observed.Investigation of thermal properties shows a melting temperature of 115°C for SP(NH2)3. According to combined DTA/TG and MS investigations above this temperature the compound decomposes by evolution of H2S and NH3 to yield amorphous phosphorus(V)nitride.

Na17Ga29ln12 (a = 2178.5(5) pm, Fd3m, Z = 8, R = 0.081) and K17In41 (a = 2424.1(5) pm, Fd3m, Z = 8, R = 0.060) have been prepared from the elements and characterized by single crystal X -ray methods. Na17Ga29ln12 is a ternary variant of K17In41. The crystal structure of Na17Ga29ln12 contains Ga12 icosahedra (In 12 icosahedra in K17In41) and truncated In12 tetrahedra which are four-capped and centred by additional Ga atoms (In atoms in K17In41). The packing of icosahedra and truncated tetrahedra leads to interpenetrating Samson polyhedra. The Ga12 icosahedra (In12 icosahedra in K17In41) take the Cu positions of the MgCu2 type, the In12 clusters take the positions of the Mg atoms of this structure type. The alkali atoms in Na17Ga29In12 and K17In41 occupy the deltahedral faces of the icosahedra and form pentagonal dodecahedra
