A low-temperature camera for single-crystal X-ray investigation between 28 and 350 K has been developed for a modified Weissenberg goniometer. Cooling is provided by a double-stage cryorefrigerator which is firmly attached to the low-temperature camera. Stranded copper cables ensure a flexible heat transfer between crystal and cold finger allowing a crystal rotation of 180°. Compared to the usual Weissenberg technique almost no further limitation is given on the accessible angular range of the scattered radiation.

The synthesis of M(CO)5 complexes bearing 4-phosphonamide and 4,5-bis(phosphonamide)-imidazol-2-ylidene ligands (NHCP = phosphonamide-based N-heterocyclic carbene) is reported. Deprotonation of respective imidazolium hydrogensulfate salts with potassium tert-butoxide (KOtBu) in the presence of [M(CO)5(CH3CN)] afforded complexes with the formula [M(CO)5(NHCP)]. In a similar fashion, reaction of in situ generated NHCP with [Rh(cod)Cl]2 (cod = 1,5-cyclooctadiene) afforded a complex with the formula [Rh(cod)Cl(NHCP)]. Low-temperature deprotonation of the imidazolium NHCP·H2SO4 with potassium hexamethyldisilazide (KHMDS) in the presence of [AuCl(SMe2)] furnished the corresponding AuI NHC complex. All complexes were characterized by various spectroscopic and spectrometric methods. In addition, further structural confirmation is provided by key single-crystal X-ray structure determinations for three of the new complexes.

The crystal structure of the low-temperature (LT) modification of LaBO3 has been redetermined from single-crystal X-ray data; the resulting structure confirms the previous study [Abdullaev, Dzhafarov & Mamedov (1976). Azerbaidzhanskii Khim. Zh. pp. 117–120], but with improved precision. LT-LaBO3 crystallizes in space group Pnma and adopts the aragonite-type structure. Except for one O atom, which is situated on a general position, all other atoms (one La, one B and a second O atom) lie on mirror planes. The structure is composed of LaO9 polyhedra with an average La—O distance of 2.593 Å and trigonal BO3 groups with an average B—O distance of 1.373 Å. Slight anisotropies of the thermal vibrations of La and B atoms suggest that the electrostatic La...La and La...B interactions across the shared edges are weak.

By treatment of [PtCl6]2- with an excess of SCN– in aqueous solution [Pt(SCN)6]2- is formed. The X-ray structure determination on a single crystal of [Py2CH2][Pt(SCN)6] (orthor-hombic, space group Pna21, a = 15.5084(9), b = 11.8444(11), c = 13.2830(9)Å, Z = 4) shows, that the thiocyanate groups are exclusively S-coordinated with average Pt-S distances of 2.378 Å and Pt-S-C angles in the range from 103.1° to 108.1°. Based on the molecular parameters of the X-ray determination the low temperature (10 K) IR and Raman spectra have been assigned by normal coordinate analysis. The valence force constant is fd(PtS) = 1.62 mdyn/Å.
