The title compound, [Mg(C44H24Br4N4)(H2O)2] or [Mg(TBrPP)(H2O)2], where TBrPP is the 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-bromophenyl)porphyrinato ligand, was obtained unintentionally as a by-product of the reaction of the [Mg(TBrPP)] complex with an excess of dimethylglyoxime in dichloromethane. The entire molecule exhibits point group symmetry 4/m. In the asymmetric unit, except for two C atoms of the phenyl ring, all other atoms lie on special positions. The MgIIatom is situated at a site with symmetry 4/m, while the N and the C atoms of the porphyrin macrocycle, as well as two C atoms of the phenyl ring and the Br atom lie in the mirror plane containing the porphyrin core. The H atoms of the axially bonded water molecule are incompatible with the fourfold rotation axis and are disordered over two sites. In the crystal, molecules are packed in rows along [001]. Weak intermolecular C—H...π and C—H...Br interactions, as well as O—H...Br hydrogen bonds, stabilize the crystal packing.

The title compounds, 2-(4-methylphenyl)-1H-perimidine hemihydrate (1, C18H14N2·0.5H2O) and 1-methyl-2-(4-methylphenyl)-1H-perimidine (2, C19H16N2), were prepared and characterized by 1H NMR and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The organic molecule of the hemihydrate lies on a twofold rotation axis while the water molecule lies on the intersection of three twofold rotation axes (point group symmetry 222). As a consequence, the hydrogen atoms that are part of the N—H group and the water molecule as well as the CH3 group of the p-tolyl ring are disordered over two positions. In compound 1, the perimidine and the 2-aryl rings are slightly twisted while its N-methylated derivative 2 has a more distorted conformation because of the steric repulsion between the N-methyl group and the 2-aryl ring. In the crystal structures, molecules of perimidine 2 are held together only by C—H...π contacts while the parent perimidine 1 does not exhibit this type of interaction. Its crystal packing is established by intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonds with the solvent water molecules and additionally stabilized by π–π stacking.

In the title hybrid salt, (C7H11N2)3[Cr(C2O4)3]·4H2O, the central CrIIIion of the complex anion (point group symmetry 2) is coordinated by six O atoms from three chelating oxalate(2−) ligands in a slightly distorted octahedral coordination sphere. The Cr—O bond lengths vary from 1.9577 (11) to 1.9804 (11) Å, while the chelate O—Cr—O angles range from 82.11 (6) to 93.41 (5)°. The 4-(dimethylamino)pyridinium cations (one situated in a general position and one on a twofold rotation axis) are protonated at the pyridine N atoms. In the crystal, N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds link the cations and anions into a three-dimensional network. π–π interactions between the pyridine rings of adjacent cations provide additional stabilization of the crystal packing, with the closest centroid-to-centroid distances being 3.541 (1) and 3.575 (1) Å.

The title compound, [Cu2I2(C11H22N2)2], crystallizes as a symmetric dimer with one quarter of the molecule in the asymmetric unit. The copper(I) atom, the iodine atom and the central methylene C atom of the di(piperidin-1-yl)methane ligand lie on a mirror plane and the complete molecule exhibits point group symmetry 2/m. To the best of our knowledge it is the first diamine copper(I) complex containing a four-membered chelate ring. Compared to other diamine copper(I) iodide dimers, the title compound has a short Cu...Cu distance of 2.5137 (11) Å, but a long Cu—N bond length of 2.213 (3) Å. The I—Cu—I angle [121.84 (2)°] is large, and the N—Cu—N angle = 66.61 (13)° is the smallest one found for copper(I) diamine complexes. As a result of the four-membered ring, the ligands around the copper(I) atom have an extremely distorted tetrahedral arrangement. In the crystal, there are no significant intermolecular interactions present.

The title compound, [Zn(SiF6)(C12H8N2)2]·CH3OH, contains a neutral heteroleptic tris-chelate ZnIIcomplex,viz.[Zn(SiF6)(phen)2] (phen is 1,10-phenanthroline), exhibiting approximate molecularC2point-group symmetry. The ZnIIcation adopts a severely distorted octahedral coordination. As far as can be ascertained, the title complex represents the first structurally characterized example of a ZnIIcomplex bearing a bidentate-bound hexafluorosilicate ligand. A density functional theory study of the isolated [Zn(SiF6)(phen)2] complex was undertaken to reveal the influence of crystal packing on the molecular structure of the complex. In the crystal structure, the methanol solvent molecule forms a hydrogen bond to one F atom of the hexafluorosilicate ligand. The hydrogen-bonded assemblies so formed are tightly packed in the crystal, as indicated by a high packing coefficient (74.1%).

The trinuclear triangular cuprate anion of the title compound, tris[bis(triphenylphosphoranylidene)ammonium] tris(μ2-4-chloropyrazolato-κ2N:N′)-μ3-oxido-tris[(nitrato-κ2O,O′)cuprate(II)] nitrate monohydrate, (C36H30P2N)[Cu3(C3H2ClN2)3(NO3)3O]NO3·H2O, has point group symmetry 3., with the μ3-O atom located on the threefold rotation axis. The distorted square-pyramidal coordination sphere of the CuIIatom is completed by two N atoms oftrans-bridging pyrazolate groups and a chelating nitrate anion. The complex anion is slightly bent, with the nitrate and pyrazolate groups occupying positions above and below the Cu3plane, respectively. In the crystal, weak O—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds, as well as π–π interactions, are present.

The title compound, [Cu4(C11H13NO4)4]·CH3CH2OH·2.5H2O, is an electronically neutral tetranuclear copper(II) complex with a cubane-like Cu4O4core. The complete molecule has point group symmetry 2. The phenol hydroxy group and one of the three alcohol hydroxy groups of each 2-{[tris(hydroxymethyl)methyl]iminomethyl}phenol ligand are deprotonated, while the secondary amine and the other two hydroxy groups remain unchanged. The CuIIatoms in the Cu4O4core are connected by four μ3-O atoms from the deprotonated alcohol hydroxy groups. Each of the pentacoordinated CuIIions has an NO4distorted square-pyramidal environment through coordination to the tridentate Schiff base ligands. The Cu—N/O bond lengths span the range 1.902 (4)–1.955 (4) Å, similar to values reported for related structures. There are O—H...O hydrogen-bond interactions between the complex molecules and the ethanol and water solvent molecules, leading to the formation of a three-dimensional network. The ethanol solvent molecule is disordered about a twofold rotation axis. One of the two independent water molecules is also located on this twofold rotation axis and shows half-occupancy.

In the crystal structure of Na2SeO3·5H2O [disodium selenate(IV) pentahydrate], two Se, two selenite O atoms and one water O atom are located on a mirror plane, and one water O atom is located on a twofold rotation axis. The coordination of one Na+cation is distorted trigonal bipyramidal, formed by three equatorial H2O ligands and two axial selenite O atoms. The other Na+cation has an octahedral coordination by six water molecules. The two independent SeO3groups form almost undistorted trigonal pyramids, with Se—O bond lengths in the range 1.6856 (7)–1.7202 (10) Å and O—Se—O angles in the range 101.98 (3)–103.11 (5)°, and both are μ2-O:O-bonded to a pair of Na+cations. Hydrogen bonds involving all water molecules and selenite O atoms consolidate the crystal packing. Although anhydrous Na2SeO3and Na2TeO3are isotypic, the title compound is surprisingly not isotypic with Na2TeO3·5H2O. In the tellurite hydrate, all Na+cations have an octahedral coordination and the TeO3groups are bonded to Na+onlyviaone of their three O atoms.

In the title compound, [N(C4H9)4]2[Ni(C11H3F3N2O6)] or [N(n-Bu)4]2[Ni(topbo)] [n-Bu =n-butyl and topbo = 4-trifluoromethyl-1,2-phenylenebis(oxamate)], the Ni2+cation is coordinated by two deprotonated amido N atoms and two carboxylate O atoms, setting up a slightly distorted square-planar coordination environment. The [Ni(topbo]2−anion lies on a twofold rotation axis. Due to an incompatibility with the point-group symmetry of the complete molecule, orientational disorder of the CF3group is observed. The tetrahedral ammonium cations and the anion are linked by weak intermolecular C—H...O and C—H...F hydrogen-bonding interactions into a three-dimensional network. A region of electron density was treated with the SQUEEZE procedure inPLATON[Spek (2015).Acta Cryst. C71, 9–18] following unsuccessful attempts to model it as plausible solvent molecule(s). The given chemical formula and other crystal data do not take into account the unknown solvent molecule.
