Condensation of the bis (1,5-diaminopentan-3-ol) dicopper (II) ion with formaldehyde and nitroethane in basic methanol yields the macromonocyclic ligand 3,13-dimethyl-3,13-dinitro-1,5,11,15-tetraazaeicosane-8,18-diol as the dicopper (II) complex. The perchlorate salt of the binuclear complex is very strongly antiferromagnetically coupled, with the magnetic properties measured from 10-300 K identifying a singlet-triplet energy gap of -860 cm-1 and a magnetic moment at room temperature of 0.48 BM. The discrete, binuclear nature of the complex was confirmed by a crystal structure analysis of the nitrite salt, which crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c, a 14.789(6), b 14.560(6), c 12.759(9)Ǻ, β 99.65(4)°, and consists of the centrosymmetric macrocycle containing two copper ions each coordinated by two secondary nitrogen donors and two (shared) RO- groups, with water and nitrite oxygens occupying axial sites. The macrocycle donors and the copper ions are essentially coplanar. The Cu…Cu distance is 3.031(1)Ǻ, with the Cu-O--Cu angle 103.6(2)°. The nitro (and methyl) groups at extremities of the macrocycle are in anti dispositions.

Orange red crystals of the new compound [Me4N]2[W2O2 (μ-S2)(η2 -S2)4] MeCN were obtained from the reaction of a solution of [Me4N]2[WOS3] in MeCN with solid AuCN at room temperature. They are monoclinic, space group P21/n, with a = 9.264(2), b = 17.736(3), c = 18.742(5) Å, ß = 95.19(1)°; Z = 4. The crystal structure was determined from single crystal diffractometer data (MoKα-radiation) and refined to R = 0.050 (2955 reflections, 221 variable parameters). It is characterized by binuclear complex anions [(S2)2OWSWO(S2)2]2- with close to C2 symmetry. Each metal center is surrounded by two end-on coordinating disulfide groups at distances ranging from 2.37 to 2.42 Å which together with a bridging sulfur atom (d̄w-s = 2.445 Å) occupy the equatorial positions of a pentagonal bipyramid whose apices are defined by a terminal oxygen atom (d̄w-o~ 1 -725 Å) and one sulfur atom of the neighboring component at a distinctly larger distance (d̄w-s~ 2.82 Å).Infrared spectra of the complex (KBr powder) showed ν(W-O) and ν(W-S) of bridging W-S-W at 931 (vs) and 454 (m) cm - 1, respectively, ν(W-S) of the WS2 unit appeared in the range between 465 and 438 cm -1. The mass spectrum of the anion showed the molecular mass at m/z 688 for [W2O2 S9]- as well as peaks for other fragments.

Substituted amidoximes when reacted with oxybis(diphenylborane) do not yield ester chelates as main products but boron heterocycles. The compound obtained from p-toluamidoxime was found by crystal structure analysis to be 2-phenyl-4-(4-methylphenyl)-2,3-dihydro-1,3,5,2-oxadiazaborol (9). The conformation of the molecule is determined by angles of 29.1 and 24.4° between the planes of adjacent rings. Except N–O all bonds in the heterocyclic ring contain significant π character. Molecules are linked to chains by a weak bifurcated hydrogen bond. 9 crystallizes with the monoclinic space group P21/c, Ζ = 4, a = 5.574(2), b = 18.274(4), c = 12.754(4) Å, β = 106.41(2)°. Refinement of 227 parameters using 1709 observed reflections converged at R = 0.037.

Excellent fluorescence properties are exhibited by d 10 metal compounds. The novel three-dimensional ZnII coordination framework, poly[[{μ2-bis[4-(2-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenyl] ether-κ2 N 3:N 3′}(μ2-furan-2,5-dicarboxylato-κ2 O 2:O 5)zinc(II)] 1.76-hydrate], {[Zn(C6H2O5)(C20H18N4O)]·1.76H2O} n , has been prepared and characterized using IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal structure analysis revealed that the compound exhibits a novel fourfold interpenetrating diamond-like network. This polymer also displays a strong fluorescence emission in the solid state at room temperature.



A three-dimensional X-ray crystal structure analysis of the complex between trimethyl platinum and ethylacetoacetate, (CH 3 ) 3 Pt CH 3 . CO. CH. CO OC 2 H 5 , has shown that the molecule is dimeric. In a monoclinic unit cell (a = 8.83, b = 14.12, c = 9.30 Å, β = 95°, space group P2 1 / c ) there are two centrosymmetrical dimeric molecules in which each platinum atom is octahedrally co-ordinated by three methyl groups, in the cis configuration, by the two carbonyl oxygen atoms of one β -ketoester and by the central, or ‘active methylene’ carbon atom of the other β -ketoester in the dimer. The structure is thus essentially the same as that of trimethyl 4:6-dioxononyl platinum (part I) and the result shows that complex formation via a tridentate β -diketo system is preferred to co-ordination through an ester oxygen. A critical account is given of the criteria used to judge the correctness of the results.

AbstractFluoro-aluminoleakeite, ideally , is a new mineral of the amphibole group from Norra Kärr, Sweden (IMA-CNMMNC 2009-012). It occurs in a proterozoic alkaline intrusion that mainly comprises a fine-grained schistose agpaitic nepheline-syenite (grennaite). Fluoro- aluminoleakeite occurs as isolated prismatic crystals 0.10–2 mm long in a syenitic matrix. Crystals are light greenish-blue with a greenish-blue streak. It is brittle, has a Mohs hardness of 6 and a splintery fracture; it is non-fluorescent with perfect {110} cleavage, no observable parting, and has a calculated density of 3.14 g cm–3. In plane-polarized light, it is pleochroic, X = pale green, Y = dark green, Z = pale green; X ^ a = 62.9° (in β obtuse), Y || b. Fluoro-aluminoleakeite is biaxial negative, α = 1.632(1), β = 1.638(1), γ = 1.643(1); 2Vobs. = 98.0(4)°, 2Vcalc. = 95.5°.MFluoro-aluminoleakeite is monoclinic, space group C2/m, a = 9.7043(5) Å, b = 17.7341(8) Å, c = 5.2833(3) Å, β = 104.067(4)°, V = 882.0(2) Å3, Z = 2. The eight strongest X-ray diffraction lines in the powder-diffraction pattern are [d in Å, (I), (hkl)]: 2.687, (100), (31, 151); 4.435, (80), (021, 040); 3.377, (80), (131); 2.527, (60), (02); 8.342, (50), (110); 3.096, (40), (310); 2.259, (40), (71, 12) and 2.557, (30), (002, 061). Analysis, by a combination of electron microprobe and crystal-structure refinement, gives SiO2 58.61, Al2O3 7.06, TiO2 0.32, FeO 3.27, Fe2O3 6.05, MgO 8.61, MnO 0.73, ZnO 0.43, CaO 0.05, Na2O 9.90, K2O 2.43, Li2O 1.62, F 3.37, H2Ocalc. 0.50, sum 101.08 wt.%. The formula unit, calculated on the basis of 24 (O,OH,F,Cl) p.f.u. with (OH) + F = 2 a.p.f.u., is A(Na0.65 O22W(F1.47OH0.53)Σ=2.00. Crystal-structure analysis shows CLi to be completely ordered at the M(3) site, and provided reliable site populations. Fluoro-aluminoleakeite is related to the end-member leakeite, , by the substitutions CFe3+ → CAl and WF → W(OH).

AbstractEdwardsite, Cu3Cd2(SO4)2(OH)6·4H2O, is a new mineral from the Block 14 Opencut, Broken Hill, New South Wales, Australia. It occurs as druses of tabular and bladed crystals up to 0.06 mm in size, associated with niedermayrite and christelite. Edwardsite is pale blue, transparent with vitreous lustre and has excellent cleavage parallel to {100}. Density was not measured but the calculated density, from the empirical formula, is 3.53 g cm–3 and the Mohs hardness is ∼3. Optically, it is biaxial negative with α ∼ 1.74, β = 1.762(4), γ ∼ 1.77 and 2Vcalc. ∼ +62°. The optical orientation is X = b, Y ∼ a, Z ∼ c. Electron microprobe analysis gave (wt.%): CdO 32.43, CuO 28.06, ZnO 2.26, FeO 0.08, SO3 20.35, H2Ocalc. (from crystal-structure analysis) 14.14, totalling 99.32. The empirical formula, calculated on the basis of 18 oxygen atoms is Cu2.77Cd1.98Zn0.22Fe0.01(SO4)2.00(OH)5.95·4.06H2O. Edwardsite is monoclinic, space group P21/c, with a = 10.863(2) Å, b = 13.129(3) Å, c = 11.169(2) Å, β = 113.04(3)°, V = 1465.9(5) Å3 (single-crystal data) and Z = 4. The eight strongest lines in the powder diffraction pattern are [d (Å), (I/I0), (hkl)]: 9.991, (90), (100); 5.001, (90), (200, 21); 4.591, (45), (20); 3.332, (60), (300, 032); 3.005, (30), (03); 2.824, (40), (2); 2.769, (55), (20, 042, 10); 2.670, (45), (2). The crystal structure was determined by direct methods and refined to R1 = 3.21% using 1904 observed reflections with Fo > 4σ(Fo) collected using synchrotron X-ray radiation (λ = 0.773418 Å). The structure is based on infinite sheets of edge-sharing Cuϕ6 (ϕ: O2–, OH) octahedra and Cdϕ7 (ϕ: O2–, H2O) polyhedra parallel to (100). The sheets are decorated on both sides by corner-sharing (SO4) tetrahedra, which also corner-link to isolated Cdϕ6 octahedra, thus connecting adjacent sheets. Moderate-strong to weak hydrogen bonding provides additional linkage between sheets.
