Bismuth tribenzoate, Bi(C6H5COO)3, was prepared by ligand exchange of bismuth triacetate with benzoic acid. A 1:1 disordered structure of P21/m symmetry, a = 7.858 (3), b = 14.442 (2), c = 16.807 (3) Å, β = 92.26 (2)°, V = 1906 (1) Å3, Z = 4, consists of polymeric chains parallel to the a axis and can be related to an ideally ordered structure of B21/a symmetry with a′ = 2a, b′ = b and c′ = 2c. This B-centred structure can itself be described as a modulation of an idealized parent structure of Pnma symmetry. The disorder is rationalized in terms of the pseudo-symmetry that relates the two formula units of Bi(C6H5COO)3 in the asymmetric unit of B21/a. In the polymeric chain each Bi atom is nominally nine-coordinate, with widely varying bond lengths arranged in a very asymmetric manner. The polymeric chain is created by each bismuth being chelated to three benzoate ligands. Each such ligand also has one of its O atoms bridging an adjacent Bi atom so that three bridging O atoms link adjacent bismuths. Apparent valences are consistent with expected values for all Bi and O atoms. A final value of 0.0454 was obtained for R(F) using the 1813 independent reflections (out of 2839) with I(h) > 3σ[I(h)] to refine 185 parameters describing 56 non-H atoms.

The asymmetric unit of the title polymeric CoIIcomplex, [Co2(C13H7NO4)2(C12H10N4)(H2O)4]n, contains a CoIIcation, a 5-(4-carboxylatophenyl)picolinate dianion, two coordination water molecules and half of 1-[4-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenyl]-1H-imidazole ligand. The CoIIcation is coordinated by two picolinate dianions, two water molecules and one 1-[4-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenyl]-1H-imidazole molecule in a distorted N2O4octahedral coordination geometry. The two picolinate dianions are related by an inversion centre and link two CoIIcations, forming a binuclear unit, which is further bridged by the imidazole molecules, located about an inversion centre, into the polymeric chain propagating along the [-1-11] direction. In the crystal, the three-dimensional supramolecular architecture is constructed by O—H...O hydrogen bonds between the coordinating water molecules and the non-coordinating carboxylate O atoms of adjacent polymeric chains.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, catena-poly[[[(1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane-κ4 N 1,N 4,N 8,N 11)nickel(II)]-μ-4,4′-(diphenylsilanediyl)dibenzoato-κ2 O:O′] sesquihydrate], {[Ni(C26H18O4Si)(C10H24N4)]·1.5H2O} n , consists of the halves of the centrosymmetric macrocyclic cation and the C 2-symmetric dicarboxylate dianion and of the water molecule of crystallization. The Ni2+ ion is coordinated by the four secondary N atoms of the macrocyclic ligand characterized by the most energetically favourable trans-III conformation and two mutually trans O atoms of the carboxylate, forming a slightly tetragonally elongated trans-N4O2 octahedron. The crystals are composed of parallel polymeric chains of the macrocyclic cations linked by the anions of the acid running along the [101] direction. Each polymeric chain is bonded to four neighbouring ones via water molecules providing O—H...O hydrogen bonds to the non-coordinated carboxyl O atoms to form a three-dimensional supramolecular network.

In the asymmetric unit of the title coordination compound, {[Cu(CN)(C4H3OC2H5N2)][Cu(CN)]} n , there are two Cu atoms with different coordination environments. One CuI ion is coordinated in a triangular coordination geometry by the N atom of the 2-ethoxypyrazine molecule and by two bridging cyanide ligands, equally disordered over two sites exchanging C and N atoms, thus forming polymeric chains parallel to the c axis. The other Cu atom is connected to two bridging cyanide groups disordered over two sites with an occupancy of 0.5 for each C and N atom, and forming an almost linear polymeric chain parallel to the b axis. In the crystal, the two types of chain, which are orthogonal to each other, are connected by cuprophilic Cu...Cu interactions [2.7958 (13) Å], forming two-dimensional metal–organic coordination layers parallel to the bc plane. The coordination framework is further stabilized by weak long-range (electrostatic type) C—H...π interactions between cyano groups and 2-ethoxypyrazine rings.

The title salt, C19H18N3 +·NO3 −, has two symmetry-independent cations and two symmetry-independent anions in the asymmetric unit, with almost identical geometries. Bond lengths and angles within the guanidinium unit are close to those expected for a Csp 2 atom. Intermolecular hydrogen bonds link anions and cations, forming chains that run along the c axis.

The asymmetric unit of the title complex, [Pd(C15H13FNO)2], contains one half of the molecule with the PdIIcation lying on an inversion centre and is coordinated by the bidentate Schiff base anion. The geometry around the cationic PdIIcentre is distorted square planar, chelated by the imine N- and phenolate O-donor atoms of the two Schiff base ligands. The N- and O-donor atoms of the two ligands are mutuallytrans, with Pd—N and Pd—O bond lengths of 2.028 (2) and 1.9770 (18) Å, respectively. The fluorophenyl ring is tilted away from the coordination plane and makes a dihedral angle of 66.2 (2)° with the phenolate ring. In the crystal, molecules are linked into chains along the [101] direction by weak C—H...O hydrogen bonds. Weak π–π interactions with centroid–centroid distances of 4.079 (2) Å stack the molecules alongc.

A 6-chloronicotinate (6-Clnic) salt of a one-dimensional cationic nickel(II) coordination polymer with 4,4′-bipyridine (4,4′-bpy), namely, catena-poly[[[tetraaquanickel(II)]-μ-4,4′-bipyridine-κ2 N:N′] bis(6-chloronicotinate) tetrahydrate], {[Ni(C10H8N2)(H2O)4](C6H3ClNO2)2·4H2O} n or {[Ni(4,4′-bpy)(H2O)4](6-Clnic)2·4H2O} n , (1), was prepared by the reaction of nickel(II) sulfate heptahydrate, 6-chloronicotinic acid and 4,4′-bipyridine in a mixture of water and ethanol. The molecular structure of 1 comprises a one-dimensional polymeric {[Ni(4,4′-bpy)(H2O)4]2+} n cation, two 6-chloronicotinate anions and four water molecules of crystallization per repeating polymeric unit. The nickel(II) ion in the polymeric cation is octahedrally coordinated by four water molecule O atoms and by two 4,4′-bipyridine N atoms in the trans position. The 4,4′-bipyridine ligands act as bridges and, thus, connect the symmetry-related nickel(II) ions into an infinite one-dimensional polymeric chain extending along the b-axis direction. In the extended structure of 1, the polymeric chains of {[Ni(4,4′-bpy)(H2O)4]2+} n , the 6-chloronicotinate anions and the water molecules of crystallization are assembled into an infinite three-dimensional hydrogen-bonded network via strong O—H...O and O—H...N hydrogen bonds, leading to the formation of the representative hydrogen-bonded ring motifs: tetrameric R 2 4(8) and R 4 4(10) loops, a dimeric R 2 2(8) loop and a pentameric R 4 5(16) loop.

6-Bromoindigo (MBI) [systematic name: 6-bromo-2-(3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indol-2-ylidene)-2,3-dihydro-1H-indol-3-one], C16H9BrN2O2, crystallizes with one disordered molecule in the asymmetric unit about a pseudo-inversion center, as shown by the Br-atom disorder of 0.682 (3):0.318 (3). The 18 indigo ring atoms occupy two sites which are displaced by 0.34 Å from each other as a result of this packing disorder. This difference in occupancy factors results in each atom in the reported model used to represent the two disordered sites being 0.08 Å from the higher-occupancy site and 0.26 Å from the lower-occupancy site. Thus, as a result of the disorder, the C—Br bond lengths in the disordered components are 0.08 and 0.26 Å shorter than those found in 6,6′-dibromoindigo (DBI) [Süsse & Krampe (1979).Naturwissenschaften,66, 110], although the distances within the indigo ring are similar to those found in DBI. The crystals are also twinned by merohedry. Stacking interactions and hydrogen bonds are similar to those found in the structures of indigo and DBI. In MBI, an interaction of the type C—Br...C replaces the C—Br...Br interactions found in DBI. The interactions in MBI were calculated quantum mechanically using density functional theory and the quantum theory of atoms in molecules.

Abstract C(CH2Cl)3(CH3), melting point Tm = 291.3 K, shows in the DTA/DSC experiment a phase tran-sition from an orientationally disordered plastic phase I into an ordered phase II at TI ⃗ II = 235.9 K. From 77 K up to TII ⃗ I the 35Cl NQR spectrum is a triplet with (ν in MHz, T=77 K) ν1 = 34.213, ν2 = 34.183, ν3 = 33.786. The 35Cl NQR fade-out temperature Tf = 247 K coincides with TII ⃗ I found from the DSC experiment. The plastic phase of 2-chloromethyl-2-methyl-l,3-propanediol is cubic bcc, Im3m, Z = 2 and the lattice constant increases linearly 755 pm at 235 K to 768 pm at 283 K. In the heating cycle we found (ΔH in kJ/mol): ΔHII ⃗ I = 12.0, ΔSm/R = 1.0. The compound belongs to the group of plastic molecules formed by ellipsoid like distorted tetrahedra and is derived by substitution from methane. The crystal structure of 2,2-bis(bromomethyl)-1,3-propanediol was determined. DTA-DSC show that an orientationally disordered plastic phase does not exist. At room temperature C(CH2Br)2(CH2OH)2 crystallizes monoclinic, space group Cc, Z = 4, a = 628.2 pm, 6 = 2015.5 pm, c = 659.6 pm, β = 94.27°. The molecules interact by intermolecular hydrogen bonds between the OH-groups and by van der Waals forces Br…Br.

The crystal structures of title hydrogen-bonded co-crystals, 2C12H16O3·C12H10N2, (I), and 2C13H18O3·C12H10N2, (II), have been determined at 93 K. In (I), the asymmetric unit consists of one 4-(n-pentyloxy)benzoic acid molecule and one half-molecule of (E)-1,2-bis(pyridin-4-yl)ethene, which lies about an inversion centre. The asymmetric unit of (II) comprises two crystallographically independent 4-(n-hexyloxy)benzoic acid molecules and one 1,2-bis(pyridin-4-yl)ethene molecule. In each crystal, the acid and base components are linked by O—H...N hydrogen bonds, forming a linear hydrogen-bonded 2:1 unit of the acid and the base. The 2:1 units are linkedviaC—H...π and π–π interactions [centroid–centroid distances of 3.661 (2) and 3.909 (2) Å for (I), and 3.546 (2)–3.725 (4) Å for (II)], forming column structures. In (II), the base molecule is orientationally disordered over two sets of sites approximately around the N...N molecular axis, with an occupancy ratio of 0.647 (4):0.353 (4), and the average structure of the 2:1 unit adopts nearly pseudo-C2symmetry. Both compounds show liquid-crystal behaviour.
