A copper(II) complex, (2,2′-bipyridine-κ2 N,N′)[2-hydroxy-2-(hydroxymethyl-κO)propanedioato-κ2 O 1,O 3]copper(II), [Cu(C4H4O6)(C10H8N2)], containing the unusual anionic chelating ligand 2-(hydroxymethyl)tartronate, has been synthesized. [Cu(bpy)2(NO3)](NO3) was mixed with ascorbic acid and Dabco (1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane) in DMF (dimethylformamide) solution in the presence of air to produce the title compound. The structure consists of square-pyramidal complexes that are joined by Cu...O contacts [2.703 (2) Å] into centrosymmetric dimers. The C4H4O6 2− ligand, which occupies three coordination sites at Cu, has previously been identified as an oxidation product of ascorbate ion.

The title compound, C22H22O3, demonstrates a two-photon absorption. Its metrical parameters are similar to those of related cyclohexanone derivatives. In the crystal structure, two sets of centrosymmetric dimers formed by weak C—H...O intermolecular hydrogen bonds combine to form molecular tapes along [101].

An appreciable degree of pyramidalization of the amine N atom is observed in the title compound. The existence of polar chains, induced by N—H...O synthons, is confirmed. C—H...O interactions, not noted in a previous X-ray study, were found to stabilize further the known head-to-tail assembling of the chains. The structure can be described as non-polar (101) layers, embodying chains interlinked by centrosymmetric dimers, connected by C(aryl)—H...π interactions. The latter are not present in m-nitroaniline, 2-methyl-4-nitroaniline and other related compounds with chains built from similar N—H...O synthons and assembled head-to-head. This finding implies that an obvious relationship between molecular recognition patterns and crystal structures should not be assumed.

In the molecule of the title compound, C25H21N3OS, which was prepared by mild oxidation of the corresponding 5,6,7,8,9,10-hexahydro analogue, the fused carbocyclic ring adopts an envelope conformation. Pairs of molecules are linked into cyclic centrosymmetric dimers by pairs of inversion-related N—H...O hydrogen bonds.

The title compound, [Au(C18H10F4PS)Cl2], crystallizes as neutral molecules, with the AuIIIatom coordinated by two Cl atoms and by the P and S atoms of the bidentate phosphanyl thiolate ligand, in a slightly distorted square-planar environment. The molecules are linked into centrosymmetric dimersvialong axial Au—Cl bonds of 3.393 (4) Å. This axial Au—Cl distance is longer than is usually seen, although one other example has been given. Dimer formation may explain the unexpectedly low solubility of the compound in common polar solvents. There is also a separate intermolecular Au—F contact of 3.561 (6) Å, but this distance seems too long to be regarded as a bond. Two putative C—H...F hydrogen bonds appear to link the dimers into sheets parallel to (110). There is a short intermolecular F...F contact of 2.695 (10) Å between two dimers related by the twofold axis.

The crystal structure of the title compound, [Cu2(C18H12Br2N4O2S2)2], consists of binuclear complex units which lie across inversion centres and are connected by weak Cu—O coordination bonds forming chains along thebaxis. The CuIIion is five-coordinated by two N atoms and two O atoms of the chelating ligand and one symmetry-related O atom forming a square-pyramidal coordination geometry. In the crystal, short S...Br contacts connect neighbouring chains into a two-dimensional network parallel to (101).

The title compound, C20H22N8O2, was synthesized by the coupling reaction of a sodium tetrazolate salt and dibromobutane in a molar ratio of 2:1. The reaction can produce several possible regioisomers and the title compound was separated as the major product. The X-ray crystallographic study confirmed that the title compound crystallizes in the monoclinic P21/c space group and possesses a bridging butylene group that connects two identical phenyl tetrazole moieties. The butylene group is attached not to the first but the second nitrogen atoms of both tetrazole rings. The dihedral angles between the phenyl groups and the adjacent tetrazolyl rings are 5.32 (6) and 15.37 (7)°. In the crystal, the molecules form centrosymmetric dimers through C—H...O hydrogen bonds between a C—H group of the butylene linker and the O atom of a methoxy group.

In the title compound, C39H38N2O4, the pyridinone ring adopts a twisted half-chair conformation with the N atom deviating by 0.3304 (1) and with the methylene C atom adjacent to the octahydroindolizine unit deviating by 0.444 (3) Å from the mean plane defined by the other four atoms. In the octahydroindolizine system, the pyrrolidine ring exhibits an envelope conformation, with the fused methyne C atom deviating by 0.6315 (1) Å from the mean plane defined by the other four atoms, and the piperidine ring exhibits a distorted chair conformation, as reflected in the puckering parametersQ= 0.568 (4) Å, θ = 1.5 (4) and ϕ = 161 (16)°. In the crystal pairs of weak C—H...O interactions form centrosymmetric dimers, which are further connected by C—H...π interactions. The crystal studied was a non-merohedral twin, with a domain ratio of 0.91:0.09.

In the crystalline state, the low-melting title compound [common name: diphenyltin(IV) dibromide], [SnBr2(C6H5)2], consists of distorted tetrahedral molecules with compressed halide and enlarged carbon opening angles of 102.741 (9) and 123.53 (8)°, respectively, and Sn—C and Sn—Br bond lengths of 2.109 (2)/2.113 (2) and 2.4710 (3)/2.4947 (3) Å, respectively. Intermolecular Sn...Br interactions, typical for diorganotin(IV) dihalides,R2SnHal2(with Hal = Cl, Br, I), and sterically less demanding organic groups lead to the formation of a hitherto unknown association pattern consisting of centrosymmetric dimers with an antiparallel orientation of the dipole moments and two weak intermolecular Sn...Br distances of 3.8482 (3) Å between one of the two Br atoms and its neighbouring Sn atom, andvice versa. The second Br atom is not involved in intermolecular interactions and lies somewhat outside the association plane that, therefore, is not coplanar [interplanar angle = 1.750 (2)°] with the tin–halide plane. The new structure motif of intermolecular tin–halide interaction can be classified as 2ai, which indicates the number of molecules (i.e.`2') composing the oligomer, the antiparallel orientation (i.e.`a') of their dipole moments and the centre of symmetry (i.e.`i') giving rise to the association pattern.

The title compound was prepared from Me3SiNPPh3 and an excess of titanium tetrachloride. It forms yellow-orange crystals, which were characterized by IR spectroscopy and by crystal structure determination. Space group P21/n, Z = 2; lattice dimensions at 20°C: a = 1189.2(1), b - 1718.5(1), c = 1238.1(1) pm, β = 93.363(7)°. The compound forms centrosymmetric dimers in which the titanium atoms are triply and doubly bridged by chlorine atoms to give face- and edgesharing octahedra, respectively. In the linear units [Ti]=N =PPh3 the Ti-N bond distance of 171.6(3) pm corresponds to a double bond.
