The structure of mer-(Pme2Ph)3Cl-cis-H2IrIII (1) has been determined by single-crystal X-ray and neutron diffraction analyses. Crystals are monoclinic, space group P21, with a 11.476(4), b 14.069(5), c 8.286(3)Ǻ, β 92.45(1)° and Z 2. Full-matrix least-squares analyses converged 0.022 for 7773 X-ray data and R(F2) = 0.062 for 1538 neutron data. Ir -H [1.557(11)Ǻ trans to Cl, 1.603(10) Ǻ trans to P] and Ir -P distances [2.292(1)Ǻ trans to P, 2.328(1)Ǻ trans to H] both exhibit trans lengthening effects. Consistent with the increased hydride content the Ir -P distances in (1) are c. 0.04 Ǻ shorter than for the corresponding bonds in its dichloro monohydrido analogues and c. 0.08 Ǻ shorter than those in the trichloride . In contrast Ir-Cl [2.505(1)Ǻ] is not significantly different to the corresponding distance (2.504 Ǻ av.) in mer -(PMe2Ph)3-cis-Cl2HIrIII.

A structural analysis of the platinum-silatrane complex, PtCl [Si(OCH2CH2)3N] [PMe2Ph]2, has been carried out by X-ray diffraction. Crystals are monoclinic, space group P21/c, a 6.630(4), b 17.465(6), c 22.297(6) Ǻ, β 97.4(2)�, Z 4. The structure has been refined by a full- matrix least-squares procedure to R 0.048 for 2165 reflections. Basic geometries are square (platinum), tetrahedral (silicon) and trigonal (nitrogen). Within the silatrane ligand, the Si-N non-bonding distance is 2.89(1) Ǻ.

The reaction of tetrasulphur dinitride with norbornadiene produces the 1:1 adduct S4N2•C7H8; X-ray crystallographic analysis of this compound reveals that olefin addition cleaves one of the sulphur–sulphur bonds of S4N2, yielding a novel eight-membered C2S4N2 ring. Crystals of S4N2•C7H8 are monoclinic, space group P21/c, a = 6.127(1), b = 17.369(1), c = 9.580(1) Å, β = 106.74(1)°, V = 1003.8(5) Å3Z = 4. The structure was solved by direct methods and was refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R = 0.039. The S—S—N—S—N—S fragment of the C2S4N2 ring is planar to within 0.15 Å. The S—C—C—S unit is folded out of this plane to produce a dihedral angle of 74.5°.

Three 2-(hydroxyamino)alkanols have been reacted with sterically hindered arylboronic acids, ArB(OH)2. When Ar = o-tolyl, 1:2 condensates having bicyclic structures are formed but when Ar = mesityl (2,4,6-(CH3)3C6H2), 1:1 condensates having six-membered cycloboronate structures result. These 1:1 condensates represent the first examples of N-unsubstituted 1,3-dioxa-4-aza-2-boracyclohexane derivatives. An X-ray analysis of one example provides unambiguous proof of the structure. Crystals of 2-mesityl-6,6-pentamethylene-1,3-dioxa-4-aza-2-boracyclohexane, 3c, are monoclinic, a = 11.076(9), b = 23.94(2), c = 13.414(9) Å, β = 109.40(5)°, Z = 8, space group P21/n. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R = 0.051 and Rw = 0.058 for 2037 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(F2).

The structure of mer-cis-(PEt2Ph)2(PPri3)H-trans-Cl2IrIII (4) has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Crystals are monoclinic, space group P21/c, with a 11.607(1), b 21.553(1), c 14.066(1) Ǻ, β 109.04(1)? and Z 4. Structure refinement by full-matrix least-squares analysis (3244 unique reflections, 316 parameters) converged with R 0.034 and Rw 0.041. The PEt2Ph ligands are similarly disposed to their PMe2Ph counterparts in mer-cis-(PEt2Ph)2(PPri3)H-trans-Cl2IrIII (2) but the PPri3 ligands are differently oriented and differently configured. Metal-ligand distances [ Ir -P(1,2,3) 2.333(2), 2.404(2), 2.368(2) Ǻ; Ir-Cl (1,2) 2.388(2), 2.400(2) Ǻ] are all within c. 0.02 Ǻ of those in (2). The P-Ir -P(trans) angle is 155.3(1)°.

Adiponitrile, C6H8N2, is a key intermediate in the synthesis of the polyamide Nylon 66 and is produced industrially on a large scale. We have determined the crystal and molecular structure of adiponitrile by single-crystal X-ray analysis at 100 K, a suitable crystal (m.p. 275 K) having been grown from the melt at low temperature. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with Z = 2. In the crystal structure, the molecule adopts an exact C i-symmetric gauche–anti–gauche conformation of the C—C—C—C skeleton about an inversion centre. The molecules are densely packed, with short intermolecular contacts between the α-H and nitrile N atoms.

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.

A compound, obtained in large yields from the reaction of acetylacetone and oxodichloroethoxobis(triphenylphosphine)rhenium(V) in benzene, has been shown by single crystal X-ray diffraction to be cis-dichloropentane-2,4-dionato-trans-bis(triphenylphosphine)rhenium(III). The crystals are monoclinic with a = 13.06(1), b = 18.30(1), c = 16.55(1) Å, and β = 112.7(2)°. The space group is P21/c and there are four molecules per unit cell. A total of 3841 independent reflections, of which 2686 were observed, were examined by film methods, the intensities being measured with a microdensitometer. The structure was refined by full matrix least-squares analysis to an R2 value of 0.068. The ligands are arranged around the rhenium atom in the manner described by the compound name to give a rough octahedron of nearest neighbours and the Re—Cl (2.369 Å av.), Re—O (2.02 Å av.), and Re—P (2.474 Å av.) distances are as expected.

The molecular structure of diosgenone, a natural steroidal sapogenin, closely related to diosgenin and isolated from Solanum nudum, was solved by single crystal X-ray diffractometry at 120 K and refined by full-matrix least-squares to an agreement factor, R1 = 0.054. It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21, with a = 15.1870(4) Å , b = 7.2710(2) Å , c = 21.2840(6) Å , β= 99.251(1) °, and four molecules in the unit cell (Z = 4). The results constitute the first structural report on a steroidal sapogenin from the diosgenin group.
