Copper(I) nitrate complexes of the types L2CuNO3, L3CuNO3, and L4CuNO3 (L = tertiary phosphine) have been synthesized by reduction of copper(II) nitrate with tertiary phosphines. Infrared spectra and single crystal X-ray measurements indicate the presence of bidentate nitrate in L2CuNO3, monodentate nitrate in L3CuNO3, and ionic nitrate in L4CuNO3.The single crystal X-ray structure of nitratobis (tricyclohexylphosphine)copper(I) is reported. CuO3N(PC18H33)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with a = 18.18(1) Å, b = 9.240(6) Å, c = 22.41(2) Å, and β = 96.57(5)°. The structure was solved by the heavy atom method and refined with isotropic thermal parameters to an R of 0.14. The copper atom is tetrahedrally coordinated by two phosphorus atoms and two oxygen atoms of a bidentate nitrate group. The P—Cu—P angle (140(1)°) and Cu—P bond lengths (2.29(1) Å) are the largest reported for tetrahedral copper complexes.A facile synthetic route to acetylacetonatobis(phosphine)copper(I) complexes is also described.

The crystal and molecular structure of dithiocyanato(triphenylarsine)mercury(II) has been determined from X-ray diffraction data. The crystals are monoclinic, space group P21/c, with a = 10.290(7), b = 21.199(23), c = 10.719(7) Å, β = 112.00(2)°, and Z = 4. The structure has been solved by the heavy-atom method and refined by block-diagonal least-squares calculations. The agreement factor R obtained for 2607 'observed' reflections is 0.030. The crystal consists of single molecules. The 'characteristic' coordination number of mercury is three, with two sulfur and one arsenic atoms at the apexes of a triangle. The nitrogen atoms of the thiocyanate groups are at 2.67 and 2.74 Å from the adjoining mercury atoms and therefore link the different molecules together.

Reactions of copper(I) acetate with 2-mercaptothiazoline (HS-thiaz) in the presence of tertiary phosphines lead to the formation of tetranuclear sulphur-bridged copper complexes. Depending on the reaction conditions, isolated clusters ([Cu4(S-thiaz)4(PR3)2] (PR3 = PPh3 (1), PEt2Ph (2), PEt3 (3)), oligomeric compounds ([Cu4(S-thiaz)4]2 (4) and [Cu4(S-thiaz)4]4 (5)), or a one-dimensional polymer ([Cu4(S-thiaz)4]∞ (6)) are formed. The structures of the compounds 2–5 have been determined by single crystal X-ray analysis.Key words: copper, 2-mercaptothiazoline, single crystal X-ray analysis.

Copper(I) perchlorate, nitrate, and acetylacetonate complexes of the types Cu(triphos)ClO4 (triphos = CH3C(CH2PPh2)3), Cu(Cy3P)2ClO4 (Cy3P = P(C6H11)3), Cu(triphos)NO3, Cu(Cy3P)2(HFac)(HFac = hexafluoroacetylacetonate), and Cu (Cy3P)2(TtFac) (TtFac = thienyltrifluoroacetylacetonate) have been synthesized by reduction of the corresponding perchlorate, nitrate, and acetylacetonates with tertiary phosphines. Infrared spectra indicate the presence of monodentate perchlorate groups in Cu(triphos)ClO4 and in Cu(Cy3P)2ClO4 and the crystal structure of the latter has been determined by a three-dimensional X-ray analysis using diffractometer data. The crystals are monoclinic, space group C2/c, with cell dimensions a = 18.159(6), b = 9.493(2), c = 22.182(3) Å, and β = 95.41(2)° and four molecules per unit cell. The structure was refined by block-diagonal least squares methods to a final R of 0.051 for 2617 reflections using anisotropic thermal parameters for the nonhydrogen atoms. The structure consists of discrete Cu(Cy3P)2ClO4 molecules with symmetry C2 separated by normal van der Waals distances. The copper atom is three-coordinate and the perchlorate anion is monodentate but disordered over two sites. Principal dimensions include: Cu—P 2.262(1) Å, Cu—O 2.220(7) Å, [Formula: see text][Formula: see text] and 99.8(2)°, and [Formula: see text]

The structure of the oxyphosphate Ni0.50TiO(PO4) has been determined ab initio from conventional X-ray powder diffraction data by the “heavy atom” method. The cell is monoclinic (space group P21/c, Z=4) with a=7.3830(5) Å, b=7.3226(5) Å, c=7.3444(5) Å, and β=120.233(6)°. Refinement of 46 parameters by the Rietveld method, using 645 reflexions, leads to cRwp=0.152, cRp=0.120, and RB=0.043. The structure of Ni0.50TiO(PO4) can be described as a TiOPO4 framework constituted by chains of tilted corner-sharing TiO6 octahedra running parallel to the c axis, crosslinked by phosphate tetrahedra and in which one-half of octahedral cavities created are occupied by Ni atoms. Ti atoms are displaced from the center of octahedra units in alternating long (2.231) and short (1.703 Å) Ti–O bonds along chains.

AbstractThe rare earth borates RE2B8O15 (RE = La, Pr, Nd) were synthesized in a Walker-type multianvil apparatus under conditions of 5.5 GPa and 1100 °C. Starting from the corresponding rare earth oxides and boron oxide, the syntheses yielded crystalline products of all new compounds that allowed crystal structure analyses based on single-crystal X-ray diffraction data for La2B8O15 and Nd2B8O15. The compound Pr2B8O15 could be characterized via X-ray powder diffractometry. The results show that the new compounds crystallize isotypically to Ce2B8O15 in the monoclinic space group P2/c. The infrared spectra of RE2B8O15 (RE = La, Pr, Nd) have also been studied.

The complex (Me2S)Cl3W(μ-SPh)2WCl3(SMe2), 1, has been isolated as one product of the 1:1 reaction between WCl4(Me2S)2 and SiMe3(SPh) in CH2Cl2 solution. A single crystal X-ray diffraction study shows that the molecule has the relatively unusual edge-shared bioctahedral structure, with a W—W bond length of 2.759(1) Å. The dimethyl sulfide ligands occupy positions trans to one another in the equatorial mean plane of the molecule, which has two-fold symmetry imposed on it. The structure was solved by the heavy atom method and refined to R = 0.044 and Rw = 0.058 for 2001 reflections. Crystals of 1 are monoclinic, space group C2/c, with a = 17.445(4), b = 12.594(2), c = 11.509(3) Å, β = 91.22(1)°, and Z = 4.

SarV, a member of the SarA protein family, is a global transcriptional regulator which has been reported to be involved in the regulation of autolysis inStaphylococcus aureus. In this study, SarV fromS. aureuswas successfully cloned, expressed, purified and crystallized. X-ray diffraction data were collected to 2.10 Å resolution. The crystals of SarV belonged to the monoclinic space groupP21, with unit-cell parametersa= 36.40,b= 119.64,c= 66.80 Å, α = γ = 90, β = 98.75°. The Matthews coefficient and the solvent content were estimated to be 2.57 Å3 Da−1and 52%, respectively, suggesting the presence of four molecules in the asymmetric unit. The results of size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) indicated thatS. aureusSarV exists as a homodimer in solution. Unfortunately, the structure cannot be solved by molecular replacement because of the low sequence identity ofS. aureusSarV to known structures. Further phase determination by selenomethionine single-wavelength anomalous dispersion (SAD) and the heavy-atom method is in progress.

The acetylene complex Pt(P(cyclo-C6H11)3)2 (F3CC≡CCF3) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with four formula units in a cell of dimensions a = 10.902(2),b = 21.766(3), c = 19.808(3) Å, and β = 116.52(1)°. Three-dimensional X-ray data were collected on a four circle automatic diffractometer using Cu radiation. The structure was solved by the heavy atom method, and refined by full-matrix least-squares methods on F. A conventional agreement factor of 0.062 was achieved, employing 6678 observations for which I > 0. The coordination geometry at the platinum atom is essentially planar, for the acetylene triple bond makes an angle of 6.5(5)° with the plane formed by the Pt and the two P atoms. The triple bond length is 1.260(10) Å. The acetylene adopts a cis-bent geometry, with a mean bend-back angle of 45.5(8)°. The ligand is considerably perturbed upon coordination to the Pt atom, as is evident from the Δv(C≡C) value of 578 cm−1.
