The structure of the title compound, [Cr(NCS)2(cyclam)]2[ZnCl4] (cyclam = 1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane, C10H24N4), has been determined from synchrotron data. The asymmetric unit contains two independent halves of the CrIIIcomplex cations and half of a tetrachloridozincate anion. In each complex cation, the CrIIIatom is coordinated by the four N atoms of the cyclam ligand in the equatorial plane and by two N-bound NCS−anions in atransaxial arrangement, displaying a distorted octahedral geometry with crystallographic inversion symmetry. The mean Cr—N(cyclam) and Cr—N(NCS) bond lengths are 2.065 (4) and 1.995 (6) Å, respectively. The macrocyclic cyclam moieties adopt centrosymmetrictrans-III configurations with six- and five-membered chelate rings in chair andgaucheconfigurations, respectively. The [ZnCl4]2−anion, which lies about a twofold rotation axis, has a slightly distorted tetrahedral geometry. The crystal packing is stabilized by hydrogen-bonding interactions between the N—H groups of the cyclam ligands, the S atoms of the NCS−groups and the Cl−ligands of the anion.

The title salt, Na[CrF2(C5H5N)4]2[ZnCl4]ClO4, consists of two cationic CrIIIcomplexes, an Na+cation, one [ZnCl4]2−anion and one ClO4−anion. The CrIIIatoms are coordinated by four pyridine (py) N atoms and two F atoms in atransarrangement, displaying a distorted octahedral geometry. The mean Cr—N(py) and Cr—F bond lengths are 2.086 (8) and 1.864 (14) Å, respectively. The [ZnCl4]2−anion has a distorted tetrahedral geometry. The most notable feature of the crystal packing is the formation of weak pyridine–perchlorate C—H...O hydrogen bonds, resulting in supramolecular chains along theb-axis direction. The perchlorate anion was disordered over two sets of sites in a 0.868 (3):0.132 (3) ratio.

The title complex, [Co(C21H16N4)2][Co(NCS)4]·CH3OH, consists of one [Co{C(py)4}2]2+complex cation [C(py)4= tetrakis(pyridin-2-yl)methane], one [Co(NCS)4]2−complex anion and a methanol solvent molecule. In the cation, the CoIIatom is coordinated by six N atoms of two C(py)4ligands in a distorted octahedral geometry. In the anion, the CoIIatom is coordinated by the N atoms of four NCS−ligands in a distorted tetrahedral geometry. The methanol molecule is disordered and was modelled over three orientations (occupancies 0.8:0.1:0.1). There are two weak hydrogen-bond-like interactions between the methanol solvent molecule and NCS−ligands of the anion [O...S = 3.283 (3) and 3.170 (2) Å].

The structure of the title compound, [Cr(NCS)2(C2H8N2)2]ClO4, has been determined from synchroton data. The asymmetric unit consists of one half of a centrosymmetric CrIIIcomplex cation and half of a perchlorate anion with the Cl atom on a twofold rotation axis. The CrIIIion is coordinated by the four N atoms of two ethane-1,2-diamine (en) ligands in the equatorial plane and two N-bound thiocyanate (NCS−) anions in atrans-axial arrangement, displaying a slightly distorted octahedral geometry with crystallographic inversion symmetry. The Cr—N(en) bond lengths are in the range 2.053 (16)–2.09 (2) Å, while the Cr—N(thiocyanate) bond length is 1.983 (2) Å. The five-membered en rings are disordered over two sites, with occupancy ratios of 0.522 (16):0.478 (16). Each ClO4−anion is disordered over two sites with equal occupancy. The crystal structure is stabilized by intermolecular hydrogen bonds involving the en NH2groups as donors and perchlorate O and thiocyanate S atoms as acceptors.

The structure of the title compound, [Cr(NCS)2(C2H8N2)2]2[ZnCl4], has been determined from synchrotron data. In the asymmetric unit, there are four independent halves of the CrIIIcomplex cations, each of which lies on an inversion centre, and one tetrachloridozincate anion in a general position. The CrIIIatoms are coordinated by the four N atoms of two ethane-1,2-diamine (en) ligands in the equatorial plane and two N-bound NCS−anions in atransarrangement, displaying a slightly distorted octahedral geometry with crystallographic inversion symmetry. The Cr—N(en) and Cr—N(NCS) bond lengths range from 2.0653 (10) to 2.0837 (10) Å and from 1.9811 (10) to 1.9890 (10) Å, respectively. The five-membered metalla-rings are in stablegaucheconformations. The [ZnCl4]2−anion has a distorted tetrahedral geometry. The crystal structure is stabilized by intermolecular hydrogen bonds involving the en NH2or CH2groups as donors and chloride ligands of the anion and S atoms of NCS−ligands as acceptors.

The structure of the title compound, [Cr(tacn)2]2[ZnCl4]3·H2O (tacn is 1,4,7-triazacyclononane; C6H15N3), has been determined from synchrotron X-ray data. Each CrIII cation is coordinated by the six N atoms from the two tacn ligands, displaying a distorted octahedral geometry. Three distorted tetrahedral [ZnCl4]2− anions and one lattice water molecule lie outside this coordination sphere. The Cr—N bond lengths are in the range 2.0621 (11) to 2.0851 (12) Å, while the mean inner N—Cr—N bond angle is 82.51 (5)°. The crystal packing is stabilized by hydrogen-bonding interactions with the N—H groups of the tacn ligands and the water O—H groups acting as donors, and the O atoms of the water molecules and Cl atoms of the [ZnCl4]2− anions as acceptors. Overall these contacts lead to the formation of a three-dimensional network.

We report the structural characterization of [6′,6′′-bis(pyridin-2-yl)-2,2′:4′,4′′:2′′,2′′′-quaterpyridine](2,2′-bipyridine)chloridoruthenium(II) hexafluoridophosphate, [RuCl(C10H8N2)(C30H20N6)]PF6, which contains the bidentate ligand 2,2′-bipyridine (bpy) and the tridendate ligand 6′,6′′-bis(pyridin-2-yl)-2,2′:4′,4′′:2′′,2′′′-quaterpyridine (tpy–tpy). The [RuCl(bpy)(tpy–tpy)]+monocation has a distorted octahedral geometry at the central RuIIion due to the restricted bite angle [159.32 (16)°] of the tridendate ligand. The Ru-bound tpy and bpy moieties are nearly planar and essentially perpendicular to each other with a dihedral angle of 89.78 (11)° between the least-squares planes. The lengths of the two Ru—N bonds for bpy are 2.028 (4) and 2.075 (4) Å, with the shorter bond being opposite to Ru—Cl. For tpy–tpy, the mean Ru—N distance involving the outer N atomstransto each other is 2.053 (8) Å, whereas the length of the much shorter bond involving the central N atom is 1.936 (4) Å. The Ru—Cl distance is 2.3982 (16) Å. The free uncoordinated moiety of tpy–tpy adopts atrans,transconformation about the interannular C—C bonds, with adjacent pyridyl rings being only approximately coplanar. The crystal packing shows significant π–π stacking interactions based on tpy–tpy. The crystal structure reported here is the first for a tpy–tpy complex of ruthenium.

AbstractTwo mercury(II) complexes containing imidazolidine-2-thione (Imt) and thiocyanate or cyanide ligands, [Hg(Imt)2(SCN)2] (1) and [Hg(Imt)2(CN)2].Hg(CN)2(2), have been prepared and characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. In compound1, the mercury atom is located on a two-fold rotation axis and is coordinated to two thione sulfur atoms of imidazolidine-2-thione (Imt) and to two sulfur atoms of thiocyanate in a distorted tetrahedral mode with the S-Hg-S bond angles in the range of 98.96(3)–148.65(6)°. In2, the mercury atom is hexa-coordinated having a distorted octahedral geometry composed of two cyanide C atoms [Hg-C=2.055(5) Å] and four weakly bound thione S atoms of imidazolidine-2-thione (Imt) [Hg-S=3.1301(13) and 3.1280(13) Å]. One free Hg(CN)2molecule is also present in the crystal. In both complexes, the molecular structure is stabilized by N-H…N and N-H…S hydrogen bonding interactions.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Mn(C6H6N4)2(H2O)2](C8H4O4), contains one-half each of the centrosymmetric cation and anion. The MnII atom is coordinated by four N atoms [Mn—N = 2.2168 (14) and 2.2407 (14) Å] from two 2,2′-biimidazole ligands and two water molecules [Mn—O = 2.2521 (14) Å] in a distorted octahedral geometry. Intermolecular N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds consolidate the crystal packing, which also exhibits π–π interactions between five-membered rings, with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.409 (2) Å.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Re(C12H8N2)(C12H12N2)(CO)3]PF6.·CH3CN, contains one cation, one hexafluoridophosphate anion and one acetonitrile solvent molecule. The ReIion is coordinated by two N atoms from the 1,10-phenanthroline ligand and one N atom from the 1,2-bis(pyridin-4-yl)ethane ligand [mean Re—N = 2.191 (15) Å] and by three carbonyl ligands [mean Re—C = 1.926 (3) Å] in a distorted octahedral geometry. The electrostatic forces and weak C—H...F(O) hydrogen bonds pack cations and anions into the crystal with voids of 82 Å3, which are filled by solvent molecules. The crystal packing exhibits short intermolecular O...O distance of 2.795 (5) Å between two cations related by inversion.
