The potential herbicide 2-phenoxypropenoic acid has been synthesized, and its structure has been determined by X-ray methods and refined to a residual R 0.068 for 564 observed reflections. Crystals are orthorhombic, space group Pbca with Z 8 in a cell of dimensions a 5.6547(9), b 9.263(2), c 31.76(1) � . The carboxylic acid groups form centrosymmetric hydrogen-bonded cyclic dimers [O…O 2.62(1) � ], while the oxypropenoic acid side chain is essentially planar but inclined to the plane of the benzene ring [dihedral angle 71.5(7)°].

The crystal structure of anhydrous sodium hydrogen o-phenylenedioxydiacetate , [Na2( Hbdda )2]n, has been determined by X-ray methods and refined to a residual R 0.031 for 1234 observed reflections. Crystals are monoclinic, space group C2/c with Z 4 in a cell of dimensions a 18.415(6), b 7.4667(7), c 16.354(7) � ,β112.61(2)�. The dimeric repeating unit has two centrosymmetrically related pentagonal pyramidal Na-O6 complex centres [Na-0, 2.272-2.439(2) � ] bridged by carboxylate oxygens. The pentagonal plane comprises four oxygens from the Hbdda ligand as well as one providing the bridging link. The axial bond gives the step-polymer link while the carboxylic acid proton is hydrogen bonded to a carboxylate oxygen of the inversion-related Hbdda ligand [O…O, 2.469(2) � ].

The crystal structure of the bismuth(III) complex with (+)-tartaric acid, ammonium aquabis [(+)-tartrato (2-)] bismuthate (III) hydrate, has been determined by X-ray methods and refined to a residual R 0.020 for 1288 observed reflections. Crystals are orthorhombic, space group P 212121 with Z 4 in a cell of dimensions a 7.4712(4), b 10.856(1), c 17.609(3) � . Each nine-coordinate MO9 bismuth centre comprises three bidentate α-hydroxy carboxy residues from two tartrato (2-) ligands (with one bridging), an asymmetric bidentate carboxylato (O,O') group, and a water. The Bi-O range is 2.372(7)-2.738(6) � [mean 2.509(6) >� ]. The resultant structure is a linear polymer which is stabilized by extensive hydrogen-bonding interactions.

Two 1:1 molecular adducts of the s- triazine herbicide prometryn [N,N′- bis (1-methylethyl)-6-methylthio-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diamine] with 4-nitrobenzoic acid, [(C7H4NO4)-(C10H20N5S)+.H2O] (1), and with 3,5-dinitrobenzoic acid, [(C7H3N2O6)-(C10H20N5S)+] (2), have been prepared and characterized. The structure of (1) has been determined by X-ray methods and refined to a residual R 0.055 for 2072 observed reflections. Crystals are monoclinic, space group P21/c with Z 4 in a cell of dimensions a 7.191(4), b 28.359(8), c 10.990(6) Ǻ, β 104.75(3)°. The carboxylic acid group protonates a nitrogen of the triazine ring and is involved in a cyclic hydrogen-bonding association with this and with a secondary amine of the side chain [N…O, 2.76, 2.78(1)Ǻ], while the second amine is associated with the lattice water [N…O, 2.90(1)Ǻ]. Spectroscopic methods have been used to confirm the similarity of the molecular associations involving the carboxylic acid groups of the aromatic acids and prometryn in both (1) and (2).

The crystal structure of the 1 : 1 adduct of N-methylaniline with 5-nitrofuran-2-carboxylic acid has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Crystals are monoclinic, space group P21/c with Z 4 in a cell of dimensions a 8·467(5), b 6·106(2), c 23·95(1) Å, β 94·48(3)°. The molecules associate in a tetrameric, proton-transfer formation which has potential as a new supramolecular synthon.

Abstract The complex [a,a′-dipyridyl(IN3)2] can be prepared by reaction of a,a′-dipyridyl with iodine azide in CH2CI2 solution. It forms stable, yellow, moisture-sensitive crystals of melting point 73 °C. According to the IR spectrum the IN3 molecules are covalently bonded to the N atoms of the dipyridyl via the iodine atoms. The crystal structure determination was carried out by X-ray methods (2127 independent reflexions, R = 3.2%). The complex crystallizes in the space group P21/c with four formula units per unit cell, (a = 1299, b = 726, c -1647 pm; β = 96.1°). The IN3 molecules form linear bridges Nα-I-N to the nitrogen atoms of the pyridyl rings with bond lengths Nα-I 217 pm and Npyr-I 244 pm. The dihedral angle of the pyridyl rings is 63.4°.

The two molecules in the crystallographic repeating unit are pseudo-mirror-related, and the heterocyclic system is almost planar in both molecules.

The crystal structure of a calcium complex of the herbicide dicamba (3,6-dichloro-2-methoxybenzoic acid) has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and refined by least squares to a final residual of 0.045. [Ca(dicamba)2(H2O)2]n is orthorhombic, space group Pbcn, Z 4, with a cell a 15.844(3), b 16.833(2), c 7.751(1) �. The MO8 coordination polyhedron about the calcium ion is a distorted Archimedes antiprism which has twofold rotational symmetry. There are two waters [Ca-O, 2.414(3) �] and six carboxylate oxygens from two bidentate chelate groups [Ca-O, 2.516, 2.517(3) �] and two bridging carboxyls [2.372(3) �]. This results in an infinite linear polymer structure.
