Porphyrin assemblies display interesting photophysical properties and a relatively high thermal stability. Moreover,meso-functionalized porphyrins with virtually fourfold symmetry can be relatively readily synthesized from pyrrole and the appropriate aldehyde. A number of metallo derivatives of 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-cyanophenyl)porphyrin, where the N atom of the linear cyano group can act both as a donor for coordination bonds or as an acceptor for hydrogen bonds, have been structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray analysis. The supramolecular and structural chemistry of the corresponding 2- and 3-cyanophenyl isomers of the parent porphyrin, however, has remained largely unexplored. The crystal structure of [5,10,15,20-tetrakis(3-cyanophenyl)porphyrinato]copper(II) (CuTCNPP) nitrobenzene trisolvate, [Cu(C48H24N8)]·3C6H5NO2, has been determined at 80 K by synchrotron single-crystal X-ray diffraction. CuTCNPP exhibits aC2h-symmetric ααββ conformation, despite an unsymmetrical crystal environment, and is situated on a crystallographic centre of symmetry. The CuIIion adopts a genuine square-planar coordination by the four pyrrole N atoms. The 24-membered porphyrin ring system shows no marked deviation from planarity. In the crystal, the CuTCNPP molecules and two nitrobenzene molecules are face-to-face stacked in an alternating fashion, resulting in corrugated layers. The remaining nitrobenzene guest molecule per CuTCNPP resides in the region between four neighbouring columnar stacks of CuTCNPP and sandwiched nitrobenzene molecules, and is disordered over four positions about a centre of symmetry.

Four cationic Ir(III) complexes, [Ir(dpq)2(bpy)]PF6 (1), [Ir(dpq)2(phen)]PF6 (2), [Ir(tfapq)2- (bpy)]PF6 (3), and [Ir(tfapq)2(phen)]PF6 (4) (dpqH = 2,4-diphenylquinoline, tfapqH = 2-(4ʹ-trifluoroacetylphenyl)- 4-phenylquinoline, bpy = 2,2ʹ-bipyridine, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) have been synthesized and fully characterized. The structure of 4 was also confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The electron-acceptor character of the trifluoroacetyl unit leads to a reduced HOMO-LUMO gap and consequently a red-shift of the UV/Vis absorption and luminescence spectra. The solvophobic character of the trifluoroacetyl unit gives rise to a molecule assembly in solution.

Single crystals of rubidium tetrafluoridobromate(III), RbBrF4, were grown by melting and recrystallizing RbBrF4 from its melt. This is the first determination of the crystal structure of RbBrF4 using single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. We confirmed that the structure contains square-planar [BrF4]− anions and rubidium cations that are coordinated by F atoms in a square-antiprismatic manner. The compound crystallizes in the KBrF4 structure type. Atomic coordinates and bond lengths and angles were determined with higher precision than in a previous report based on powder X-ray diffraction data [Ivlev et al. (2015). Z. Anorg. Allg. Chem. 641, 2593–2598].

Two new Zn (II) coordination polymers with 3-nitrobenzoato ligands have been prepared, and their structures have been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. The structure of [Zn (3-nbz)2(μ-4,4'-bpy)]n(1) (3-nbz = 3-nitrobenzoato, 4,4'-bpy = 4,4'-bipyridine) shows 1-D chains originating from terminal 3-nbz ligands andμ-4,4'-bpy molecules. The chains are further connected through face-to-face π stacking interactions to genenate a 2-D supramolecular layer. In Zn (3-nbz)2(2,2'-bpy) (2) (2,2'-bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine), carboxylate groups exhibit chelated bidentate to give discrete mononuclear units, which are linked by face-to-face π-π and C-H···π interactions to produce a 1-D supramolecular chain.

Crystals of KAlSiO4-O1(potassium aluminium silicate) were synthesized using a flux method and analysed utilizing single-crystal X-ray diffraction and electron microprobe analysis. Both methods confirm that the crystals are nonstoichiometric according to K1−xAl1−xSi1+xO4withx= 0.04 (1). KAlSiO4-O1is closely related to the stuffed derivatives of tridymite, although the topology of the Si/Al-ordered framework is different. Six-membered rings of UUDDUD and UUUDDD (U = up and D = down; ratio 2:1) configurations are present in layers parallel to theabplane. In contrast, the framework of tridymite exhibits UDUDUD rings. The crystals are affected by inversion, pseudo-orthorhombic and pseudo-hexagonal twinning.

The complexes M(4mepy)4A2 and M(H2O)2(4mepy)8A2 (where M is Ni or Co and A is PF6 or AsF6) have been prepared and their electronic spectra and magnetic properties studied. A preliminary report is made of single crystal X-ray diffraction studies on Ni(H2O)2(4mepy)8(PF6)2, Co(H2O)2(4mepy)8(PF6)2, and Co(4mepy)4(PF6)2. All of the complexes have structures involving complex cations and non-coordinated anions, consistent with extremely weak ligating abilities for both PF6− and AsF6−. Cations identified and characterized are the squashed tetrahedral [Co(4mepy)4]2+ ion, the square planar [Ni(4mepy)4]2+ ion, and the tetragonal [Co(4mepy)4((4mepy)2H2O)2]2+and [Ni(4mepy)4((4mepy)2H2O)2]2+ ions. The ligand field strength of 4-methylpyridine is found to be indistinguishable from that of pyridine in these complexes. Infrared spectra are reported and infrared criteria for establishing the presence of non-coordinated anions in PF6− and AsF6− complexes are suggested.

The reaction of [Rh(CO)2Cl]2 with [HRu4(CO)12BH]- followed by treatment with an excess (at least three-fold) of [Cy3PAuCl] (Cy = cyclohexyl) leads to the formation of [Rh2Ru4(CO)16B{AuPCy3}] (previously prepared by another route) and [Rh2Ru4(CO)15B{AuPCy3}3]. The new trigold derivative has been characterized by spectroscopic and mass spectrometric methods, and by single crystal X-ray diffraction. It possesses an octahedral Rh2Ru4 core containing an interstitial boron atom; two of the gold(I) phosphine units cap two adjacent faces and the third bridges an edge of the octahedral cage. There are no close Au···Au contacts. Reactions of [Rh2Ru4(CO)16B]- with [(R3PAu)3O]+ (R = Ph, 2-MeC6H4) resulted in the formation of [Rh2Ru4(CO)15B{AuPR3}3]; for R = Ph, two isomers in respect of the arrangements of the AuPPh3 were isolated. Fluxional processes involving the gold(I) phosphine fragments have been observed using solution variable-temperature 31P NMR spectroscopy.

Caesium tetrafluoridobromate(III), CsBrF4, was crystallized in form of small blocks by melting and recrystallization. The crystal structure of CsBrF4 was redetermined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. In comparison with a previous study based on powder X-ray diffraction data [Ivlev et al. (2013). Z. Anorg. Allg. Chem. 639, 2846–2850], bond lengths and angles were determined with higher precision, and all atoms were refined with anisotropic displacement parameters. It was confirmed that the structure of CsBrF4 contains two square-planar [BrF4]− anions each with point group symmetry mmm, and a caesium cation (site symmetry mm2) that is coordinated by twelve fluorine atoms, forming an anticuboctahedron. CsBrF4 is isotypic with CsAuF4.

A new synthesis for 2-chloro-1,3,5-trimethyl-4,6-dioxo-1,3,5,2λ3-triazaphosphinane (1) is described. Chlorine-fluorine exchange in 1 by means of sodium fluoride in acetonitrile in the presence of catalytic amounts of a crown ether furnished 2-fluoro-1,3,5-trimethyl-4,6-dioxo-1,3,5,2λ3-triazaphosphinane (2). The synthesis of the bromine and iodine analogues, 3 and 4, by metathesis of 1 with the appropriate trimethylsilyl halides, Me3SiBr and Me3SiI, respectively, is also described. The syntheses of an iron(0)tetracarbonyl complex (5) and of a dichloroplatinum( II) complex (6) are reported. A single crystal X-ray diffraction study was conducted on 6. [P21/c, a = 1161.3(3), b = 1423.2(3), c = 1247.7(3) pm, β = 109.42(2)°, R = 0.028], There are deviations from ideal square planar geometry at platinum. The heterocycles display a flattened boat conformation. A Staudinger reaction of 1 with Me3SiN3 led to the formation of a substituted cyclotriphosphazene.
