The crystal and molecular structures of 3(5),4-dimethylpyrazole, C5H8N2, (I), and of 3,4,5-trimethylpyrazole, C6H10N2, (II), have been determined at 200 K. In (I) the 4,5-dimethylpyrazole tautomer is present in the solid state and the six independent molecules in the asymmetric unit form trimers via NH...N hydrogen bonds related by a pseudo centre of symmetry. The asymmetric unit of (II) contains one and a half molecules: these exhibit NH proton disorder and are hydrogen bonded to each other via their respective NH groups to form chains. Ab initio calculations at HF and B3LYP/6-31G** levels indicate that the 3,4-dimethylpyrazole tautomer is more stable than the 4,5-dimethylpyrazole tautomer by only approximately 0.5  kcal  mol−1 (1 kcal mol−1 = 4.184 kJ mol−1).

Treatment of Ru(acac)3 with 2-cyano-pyridine and 3,5-dimethyl-pyridine in the presence of zinc dust as reducing agent in refluxing THF afforded the ruthenium(II) complexes cis-[RuII(acac)2(2- CN-py)2] (1) and cis-[RuII(acac)2(3,5-Me2-py)2] (2), respectively. Interaction of Ru(acac)3 with 3- Me-pyridine and 3,5-Me2-pyridine in the presence of Br2 in refluxing THF gave the ruthenium(III) complexes [RuIII(acac)Br2(3-Me-py)2] (3) and [RuIII(acac)Br2(3,5-Me2-py)2] (4), respectively. The four complexes have been spectroscopically and electrochemically characterized, and their crystal and molecular structures have been established by X-ray crystallography

[(THF)2LiCl2VCl2(THF)2] (1) and [Li(THF)4][OMoCl4(THF)] (2) can be prepared by the reactions of VCI3 with LiCl in THF and of Li(H)PtBu with OM0 CI4 in THF, respectively. 1 and 2 were characterized by IR spectroscopy, MS spectrometry (2) and X-ray crystallography. 1 can be obtained in two modifications depending on the temperature of crystallization. At -30 °C a triclinic form, 1a, was isolated from THF solution with one unique molecule per asymmetric unit. However, at 20 °C, 1b crystallized in the monoclinic space group P2/c. It possesses four independent molecules per asymmetric unit. According to the structure analyses 1 consists of a dinuclear complex with a planar LiCl2V four-membered ring while 2 consists of seperate ions [Li(THF)4]+ and [OMoCl4(THF)]-

Fluorine substitutions on the furanose ring of nucleosides are known to strongly influence the conformational properties of oligonucleotides. In order to assess the effect of fluorine on the conformation of 3′-deoxy-3′-fluoro-5-methyluridine (RTF), C10H13FN2O5, we studied its stereochemistry in the crystalline state using X-ray crystallography. The compound crystallizes in the chiral orthorhombic space group P212121 and contains two symmetry-independent molecules (A and B) in the asymmetric unit. The furanose ring in molecules A and B adopts conformations between envelope (2E, 2′-endo, P = 162°) and twisted (2T3, 2′-endo and 3′exo, P = 180°), with pseudorotation phase angles (P) of 164.3 and 170.2°, respectively. The maximum puckering amplitudes, νmax, for molecules A and B are 38.8 and 36.1°, respectively. In contrast, for 5-methyluridine (RTOH), the value of P is 21.2°, which is between the 3E (3′-endo, P = 18.0°) and 3T4 (3′-endo and 4′-exo, P = 36°) conformations. The value of νmax for RTOH is 41.29°. Molecules A and B of RTF generate respective helical assemblies across the crystallographic 21-screw axis through classical N—H...O aand O—H...O hydrogen bonds supplemented by C—H...O contacts. Adjacent parallel helices of both molecules are linked to each other via O—H...O and O...π interactions.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C20H34O2, contains two crystallographically independent molecules (1 and 2) with similar conformations. In both molecules, the cyclohexane rings adopt a chair conformation, while the oxane rings are also puckered. In the crystal, O—H...O hydrogen bonds connect adjacent molecules, formingC(6) helical chains located around a 21screw axis and running along the crystallographicaaxis. The packing of these chains is governed only by van der Waals interactions. Semi-empiricalPM3quantum chemical calculations are in a satisfactory agreement with the structural results of the X-ray structure analysis. The absolute structure was indeterminate in the present experiment.

The solid-state structures of the title compounds were determined by conventional single-crystal X-ray crystallography. In both cases a planar zigzag conformation of the carbon skeleton is observed with a resulting 1,3-parallel orientation of O(2) and O(4). In the case of the heptaacetate even a second such arrangement is established between O(3) and one of the oxygens at C(1). These findings substantiate the claim that such conformations are not as unfavourable as previously was assumed by many authors.

The S72− ion is readily prepared in high yield by the reaction of [PPN]SH with cyclo-S8 in ethanol. The crystal and molecular structures of [PPN]2S7•2EtOH have been determined by X-ray crystallography. The crystals are monoclinic and belong to the space group P21, a = 13.199(2), b = 19.414(2), c = 14.046(2) Å, β = 94.027(6)°, V = 3590.3(7) Å3, Z = 2. The final R and Rw values were 0.064 and 0.060, respectively. The S72− ion is an unbranched chain of sulphur atoms in the cis,trans,cis-configuration with torsion angles of 89.99(18), 71.84(16), 76.54(16), and 94.19(18)°. The S—S distances (in Å) become progressively smaller in the sequence d(S—S central) [2.072(3) and 2.070(3)] > d(S—S internal) [2.050(2) and 2.037(3)] > d(S—S) terminal [2.044(3) and 2.026(4)]. The Raman spectrum of the S72− ion in [PPN]2S7•2EtOH exhibits characteristic S—S stretching vibrations at 503, 453, 419, and 395 cm−1.

The structure of the synthetic protected oligopeptide Z-(Aib)9OBu t , tert-butoxynona(α-aminoisobutyric acid), which contains the unusual α-aminoisobutyric acid (Aib), was determined by X-ray crystallography. The two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit fold into 310-helices, each stabilized by seven intramolecular hydrogen bonds. The C terminus of one of the molecules is disordered and adopts a semi-extended conformation, which is rather unusual for Aib residues. This is the first observation of such a conformation involved in a disorder in Aib-containing oligopeptides. The existence of a second conformation for the C-terminal residue might explain the difficulties in crystallizing the title compound and a different behaviour of the title compound in thin layer chromatography compared with the other homopeptides.

The crystal structures of the compounds [Cl3SnCo(CO)4] 1, [Cl2Sn{Co(CO)4}2]2, and [ClSn{Co(CO)4}3]3, have been determined by X-ray crystallography. Sn is co-ordinated tetrahedrally by Cl- and Co-substituents, the co-ordination polyhedron of Co is a distorted trigonal bipyramid. The Sn -Cl- and the Sn-Co-distances both increase from 1 to 3 (Sn -Co: 247.7 in 1, 253.2 in 2, and 260.6 pm in 3).
