The reduction of magnesium phthalocyanine (MgPc) with 2.2 equivalents of potassium graphite in 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME) gives [K2(DME)4]PcMg(OH)(1) in 67% yield. Compound 1 was structurally characterized using single crystal X-ray crystallography and was found to be a monomeric, heterometallic complex consisting of a μ3-OH ligand that bridges a [MgIIPc3-]- anion to two potassium cations solvated by four DME molecules. An absorption spectrum of 1 confirms the Pc ligand is singly reduced and has a 3–charge. The solid-state structure of 1 does not indicate breaking of the aromaticity of the Pc ligand. Compound 1 is only the second Pc3- complex and the first reduced MgPc to be isolated and structurally characterized.

The room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structural characterization of the title compound (tpyH2)2[Tb(OH2)8]Cl7.~2⅓H2O is recorded. Crystals are triclinic, Pī , a 17.063(5), b 16.243(3), c 7.878(3) Ǻ, α 84.78(2), β 84.39(3), γ 87.81(2)°, Z = 2 formula units; 3167 'observed' diffractometer reflections were refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to a residual of 0.057. Notable features of interest of the compound are the 'chelation' of chloride ions by the terpyridinium cations , and the existence of a free [Tb(OH2)8]2+ cation in the presence of an abundance of chloride ions.

Two dechlorinated products (B) and (D), formed in the reaction between endrin (C12H8Cl6O) and vanadium(II) for the purpose of confirmation of identity, are shown by single-crystal X-ray structure determination to be isomers of the title compound, C12H9Cl5O. Crystals of both are monoclinic, P21/c. For isomer (B), a 7.432(8), b 12.76(1), c 14.55(2) � , β 108.32(9)�, Z=4; R was 0.038 for 2594 observed reflections. For isomer (D), a 9.037(4), b 12.004(4), c 14.436(6) � , β 124.91(2)°, Z= 4; R was 0.041 for 1826 reflections. The geometries of the two isomers are compared.

The room temperature X-ray single-crystal structural characterization of a protonated copper(II) complex of a ligand artefact, L′, of L = N-Me6sar (described in an accompanying paper) is recorded, the new ligand L′ being generated formally by elimination of a CH2CH2 bridge between a pair of nitrogen donor atoms of L. The complex, [ ClCu (H2L′) (ClO4)3.2H2O, is orthorhombic, Pccn , a 22.528(7), b 10.544(3), c 13.748(6) Ǻ, Z = 4 formula units, R being 0.053 for 1133 independent 'observed' [I > 3σ(I)] reflections. The cation, containing five-coordinate square-pyramidal ClCuN4 copper, is disposed with the Cu- Cl bond [2.458(3)Ǻ] lying on a crystallographic 2 axis; Cu-N distances are 2.094(8) and 2.093(8)Ǻ.

Azacalix[2]dipyrrolylmethane is flexible changing its 1,3-alternate conformation to the 1,2-alternate, partial cone or cone conformations with respect to the charge on the anion, as shown by a series of single crystal X-ray structures of inorganic mono- and dianionic complexes.

Complexes [ XCu ( py )(PPh3)2], X = Cl, Br, I, py = pyridine, have been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray structure determination. Chloride and iodide derivatives have similar cells [ isomorphous (?) but not isostructural ], triclinic, pi, a = 19.5 A, b = 10.5, c = 9.6 � , α ≈ 66, β ≈ 86, γ ≈ 83�, Z = 2; the bromide is monoclinic, Cc, a 13.568(9), b 15.760(12), c 16.545(8) � , β 95.65(5)�, Z = 4. Cl, Br, I structures were refined to residuals of 0.042, 0.055, 0.039 for 4288, 2241, 4808 'observed' reflections. In all cases, the copper atom is four-coordinate; for such an array, Cu-X lengths are unusually short [2.318(2), 2.459(2), 2.636(1) � (Cl, Br, I) and Cu-N unusually long (2.14(1) � ], while (Cu-P) increase from 2.264 to 2.288 � across the series. The dominant aspect of the complexes is thus that of XCu (PPh3)2 solvated by pyridine.

Mixed base pyridine (py)/triphenylphosphine adducts of the copper(1) halides, CuX, have been synthesized for 1 : 1 : 1 stoichiometry for X = chloride and iodide; single-crystal X-ray structure determinations of these show them to be isomorphous and isostructural with that of the bromide recorded elsewhere, being �,�′- dihalo-bridged dimers , [(PPh3)( py )CuX2Cu( py )(PPh3)], monoclinic, C2/c, a ≈ 26.2, b ≈ 14.3, c ≈ 11 .2 � , β ≈ 95, Z = 4 dimers. The bromide has been isolated as a new monoclinic C 2/m polymorph, a 11 .279(8), b 14.268(6), c 13.858(4) �, β 109.33(6)�, Z=4 dimers, and details of its structure are also recorded. The structures of their pyridine-4-carbonitrile (pycn) analogues have also been determined and found to be also binuclear, with no cyano-copper interactions; these also are an isomorphous, isostructural series, monoclinic P21/n, a ≈ 15.4, b ≈ 8.1, c ≈ 17.9 � , β ≈ 101 �, Z = 2 dimers. In each series of dimers, one half of the dimer is crystallographically independent, the generators of the other half being twofold rotor (C2/c phase), mirror (C2/m phase) and inversion centre (P21/n phase) respectively.

AbstractThe synthesis of two new copper(II) complexes with benzimidazole type ligands, Cu(tta)2(L1)2 (1) and Cu(tta)2(L1) (2) (where L1 is 3-(4-(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl)-4-methoxy phenyl)-1-phenylprop-2-en-1-one; tta is 2-thenoyltrifluoroacetonate), are reported. Their structures have been characterized by infrared spectroscopy, elemental analyses and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The copper(II) ion of 1 is in a distorted octahedral environment, while that of 2 is in a distorted square-pyramidal environment. In both cases, the donor atoms are provided by oxygen atoms of the tta ligands and nitrogen atoms of the L1 ligands.
