Adducts (1 : 1) of copper(I) chloride, bromide and thiocyanate with quinoline have been synthesized and have been the subject of single-crystal X-ray structure determinations at 295 K. Crystals of the chloride are orthorhombic, P 212121, a 15.358(7), b 14.309(6), c 3.801(2)Ǻ, Z 4; R was 0.055 for 541 'observed' reflections. Crystals of the bromide are monoclinic, C2/c, a 19.417(5), b 14.048(4), c 15.753(6) Ǻ, β 125.31(2)°, Z 4 tetramers; R was 0.049 for 1138 'observed' reflections. Crystals of the thiocyanate are monoclinic, P 21/c, a 5.682(1), b 10.412(2), c 16.838(5)Ǻ, β 97.48(2)°, Z 4 f.u .; R was 0.045 for 914 'observed' reflections. The chloride takes the form of the common 'stair' polymer, unexpectedly, while the thiocyanate is an expanded version of the same. The bromide provides a second example of a novel tetrameric 'basket' structure exemplified previously by the iodide analogue.

The 1 : 1 complexes of the substituted triphenylphosphine ligands mesityldiphenylphosphine and dimesitylphenylphosphine with copper(1) chloride, bromide and iodide have been the subject of single-crystal X-ray structure determinations at 295 K. All six complexes crystallize as air-stable dimeric molecules, [(PPh2Mes)CuX]2 and [ (PPhMes2)CUX]2 with each copper atom in a distorted trigonal PCuX2. coordination environment. Crystals of [(PPh2Mes)CuCl]2 (1) are monoclinic, P21/n, a 9.961(3), b 18.687(6), c 11.009(7) Ǻ, β 114.63(4)°; R was 0.049 for 2450 'observed' reflections. [(PPh2Mes)CuBrI2 (2) is monoclinic, P21/n, a 9.939(2), b 18.832(6), c 11.238(6) Ǻ, β 115.36(3)°; R was 0.046 for 1803 'observed' reflections. [(PPh2Mes)CuI]2.4/3 C6H6 (3) is rhornbohedral, R3, a 36.877(8), c 9.047(5) A; R was 0.039 for 2537 'observed' reflections. Crystals of [(PPhMes2)CuCl]2.2MeCN (4) are triclinic, Pi, a 15.783(7), b 9.570(4), c 8.914(4) Ǻ, α 72.43(3), β 76.37(3), γ 74.03(3)°; R was 0.045 for 3341 'observed' reflections. [(PPhMes2)CuBr]2.3C6H6 (5) is monoclinic, C2/c, a 9.694(6), b 30.15(2), c 20.66(2) Ǻ, β 98.00(7)°; R was 0.047 for 2117 'observed' reflections. [(PPhMes2)CuI]2.2MeCN (6) is orthorhombic, PP1nb, a 11.694(8), b 14.77(1), c 29.76(3) Ǻ; R was 0.049 for 3447 'observed' reflections. Cu-P bond lengths are: 2.196(2) A (1); 2.198(3) Ǻ (2); 2.222(5) and 2.226(5) Ǻ (3); 2.202(1) Ǻ (4); 2.197(3) A (5); 2.201(4) and 2.264(5) Ǻ (6). The geometries of the LCuX2 and CuX2Cu units are compared with data reported for other monomeric and dimeric compounds for both phosphorus- and nitrogen-based ligands L.

The crystal structures of [Cu(Pme3)4]X (X = Cl , Br, I) and of [M(PPh3)4] [PF6] (M = Cu, Ag) have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods at 295 K. The former compounds contain nearly tetrahedral [Cu(PMe3)4]+ ions on sites of m symmetry with mean Cu-P bond lengths of 2.270, 2.271 and 2.278 Ǻ for X = Cl , Br and I respectively. The latter compounds contain [M(PPh3)4]+ ions on sites of 3 symmetry. In the M =Ag complex the coordination environment is close to tetrahedral, but in the M =Cu complex the length of the axial Cu-P bond [2.465(2)Ǻ] is significantly shorter than that of the off-axis bonds [2.566(2)Ǻ]. Possible reasons for this are discussed.

The crystal structures of the title compounds have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods at 295 K. Crystal data for (PPh3)2CuBr2Cu(PPh3) (1) show that the crystals are iso-morphous with the previously studied chloro analogue, being monoclinic, P21/c, a 19.390(8), b 9.912(5), c 26.979(9) Ǻ, β 112,33(3)°; R 0.043 for No 3444. Cu( trigonal )- P;Br respectively are 2.191(3); 2.409(2), 2.364(2) Ǻ. Cu(tetrahedral)- P;Br respectively are 2.241(3), 2.249(3); 2.550(2), 2.571(2) Ǻ. Crystals of 'step' [PPh3CuBr]4 (2) are isomorphous with the solvated bromo and unsolvated iodo analogues, being monoclinic, C2/c, a 25.687(10), b 16.084(7), c 17.815(9) Ǻ, β 110.92(3)°; R 0.072 for No 3055. Cu( trigonal )- P;Br respectively are 2.206(5); 2.371(3), 2.427(2) Ǻ. Cu(tetrahedral)- P;Br are 2.207(4); 2.446(2), 2.676(3), 2.515(3) Ǻ.

Following the suggestion made earlier, on the basis of solution spectroscopy, that a number of eriostyl/nitrobenzoate compounds form charge-transfer self-complexes, a number of these have been investigated structurally by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods in order to ascertain the presence or otherwise of such interactions in the solid state. The substances thus studied were eriostyl 3,5-dinitrobenzoate (1), eriostyl p-nitrobenzoate (2), tetrahydroeriostyl 3,5-dinitrobenzoate (3), and eriostemyl 3,5-dinitrobenzoate (4);* structure determinations in all cases, although displaying the presence of strong charge-transfer interactions from the two moieties of each molecule, show that the interactions in the solid state are intermolecular in nature.

The title compounds are 3-aza[6](1,7)-naphthalenophanes with 3-Me and 3-CO2Me substituents, C18H23NO2 and C19H23NO4; in the former the chemical shift of the naphthalene hydrogen enclosed by the medium nitrogen-containing ring is the highest yet observed in a derivative of this type ( σ 9.33). In order to examine the environment of this hydrogen atom and the expected associated naphthalene ring distortions in both compounds, single-crystal X-ray structure determinations have been carried out at 295 K showing the transannular H…N distance in the methyl derivative to be remarkably short at 2.08(2) � . Crystals are triclinic, P1, a 11.683(3), b 10.846(3), c 6.729(2) �, α 90.08(2), β 93.33(2), γ 112.88 Z 2; R was 0.041 for 1378 'observed' reflections. Crystals of the 3-CO2Me derivative are also triclinic, P1, a 12.587(9), b 10.650(4), c 6.758(3) � , a 91.91(3), β 100.51(4), γ 104.74(5)° Z 2; R 0.067 for 1267 'observed' reflections.

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.

The crystal structures of the title compounds, (C7H9N)3CuX, X = Cl , Br, I [(1), (2), (3)], have been determined by single-crystal X-ray methods at 295 K, being refined to residuals of 0.022, 0.053, 0.047 for 151, 312, 720 independent 'observed' reflections respectively. The three structures containing 3,5-dimethylpyridine have an interesting relationship in symmetry: (1) is rhombohedral , R3m, a 9.050(3)Ǻ, α 110.89(3)°, Z 1; (2) is rhombohedral, R3c, a 10.328(5)Ǻ, α 95.60(4), Z 2; and (3), derived from (2), is monoclinic, Cc, a 13.233(6), b 15.083(7), c 11.491(6)Ǻ, β 98.27(4)°, Z 4. The distances Cu- Cl , Br, I are 2.412(9), 2.51(1), 2.683(3)Ǻ, with Cu-N 2.08(1), 2.02(1), 1.98(2)- 2.15(4)Ǻ respectively. In (1), the symmetry of the molecule, containing pseudo- tetrahedrally coordinated copper, N3CuX, is a full 3 m, with the ligands lying in mirror planes containing the 3 axis; in (2), the ligands rotate about the Cu-N bonds so that the molecular symmetry is 3; and in (3) further distortion of this kind causes total loss of crystallographically imposed symmetry. This descent in symmetry is the converse of that observed in the rhombohedral series [(C6H7N)3CuX] (C6H7N = 3-methylpyridine), and the possible underlying reasons are explored in terms of intra- and inter-molecular X...H interactions.

Syntheses and room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structure determinations are recorded for 1:1 adducts of 2,2':6',2"-terpyridine (' tpy ') with the lead(II) oxoanion salts perchlorate, nitrate and nitrite, ( tpy ) Pb ( oxoanion )2. All structures are monoclinic, C2/c, Z = 4, with approximate ranges a from 9 to 11 Ǻ, b from 16 to 20 Ǻ, c from 9.8 to 13.8 Ǻ, β from 113 to 130° and V from 1650 to 1850 Ǻ3. In all cases the lead(II) atoms are disposed on crystallographic 2 axes which also pass through the axis of the central tpy ring; a pair of symmetry related oxoanions link successive lead atoms in a one-dimensional polymeric chain parallel to the ac cell diagonal, one pair of oxygen atoms functioning as an O,O'-bidentate with another oxygen (replaced by the nitrogen in the nitrite) bridging to the adjacent lead atom; the third anionic oxygen atom in the nitrate is replaced by a water molecule in the nitrite, which thus becomes a monohydrate. Residuals were 0.030, 0.034 and 0.040 for 2122, 1564 and 2059 independent 'observed' (I > 3σ(I)) reflections respectively. Also recorded are the syntheses and room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structure determinations for 1:1 aducts of 2,2':6',2"-terpyridine with lead(II) chloride, bromide and iodide, the chloride and bromide being hydrated. ( tpy )PbCl2.H2O is monoclinic, P 21/c, a 8.938(1), b 15,210(7), c 13.414(3) Ǻ, β 115.17(1)°, Z = 4 f.u .; R was 0.036 for No = 3346 independent, 'observed' reflections. The complex is centrosymmetric, binuclear [( tpy ) (H2O)( Cl ) Pb (μ- Cl )2Pb( Cl )(OH2)( tpy )], with the two lead atoms linked by bridging chlorine atoms; the lead atoms are seven-coordinate N3,O,ClPb(μ- Cl )2. The bromide ( tpy )PbBr2.2/3H2O, triclinic, Pī, a 12.360(6), b 12.452(4), c 18.372(6) Ǻ, α 108.31(3), β 109.44(3), γ 90.56(3)°, Z = 6 f.u ., R being 0.046 for No 7282, is in fact trinuclear [Pb3Br6( tpy )6].2H2O, a novel and elegant oligomer with quasi-2 symmetry in which a central lead atom (on the quasi-2 axis) is seven-coordinated [( tpy ) Pb (μ-Br)4] with the associated bromides bridging to a pair of peripheral lead atoms, also seven coordinated, [( tpy )(Br) Pb (μ-Br)3]. Unsolvated ( tpy )PbI2, triclinic, Pī , a 10.834(3), b 9.023(3), c 8.906(2) Ǻ, α 80.34(2), β 89.40(2), γ 79.78(2)°, Z = 2 f.u ., R 0.031 for No 2347 is, like the chloride, centrosymmetric binuclear, [( tpy )(I) Pb (μ-I)2Pb(I)( tpy )], but with the lead(II) now six-coordinate N3(I) Pb (μ-I)2. In both chloride and iodide, the tpy plane is approximately normal to the Pb ... Pb line with the water molecule of the chloride approximately trans to the central tpy nitrogen; in the iodide that site is occupied by the terminal halide.
