The crystal structure of the synthetic intermediate, 9-cyano-1,10-dimethyl-6-ethy]enedioxy-1-octalin, C15H21O2N, was solved by direct methods. The compound crystallizes in the space group p21/c with cell dimensions a = 12.282(4), b = 7.144(3), c = 15.619(5) Å, β = 104.04(1)°. Refinement was carried out isotropically for hydrogen and anisotropically for non-hydrogen atoms using full matrix least squares to an R-value of 0.043 for 1669 observed reflections.This compound, which has a cis configuration at the octalin ring junction, is a precursor to a moiety of the alkaloid thelepogine. The cis conformation is essential for total synthesis of thelopogine by this route.

(3aRS,4RS,6RS,8aSR)-5-Methyleneoctahydro-4H-3a,6-methanoazulene-4-carboxylic acid (7) has been synthesized and a detailed comparison made between its molecular structure and that of gibberellic acid (4). Indane-5-carboxylic acid (8) was converted by an alternating sequence of reduction and isomerization into the hydrindene acid (11). The diazomethyl ketone derived from (11) was transformed to cyclopropyl ketone (12) which was reduced by Li/NH3 with stereochemical inversion at the β-carbon to give a 1:3 mixture of ketones (13) and (14) respectively. Ketone (14) was then converted into the title acid (7) by a standard procedure. ��� Molecules of (7) crystallize in space group P2/c with a 7.782(1), b 11.055(1), c 14.559(3) Ǻ, β 116.05(1)°. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined by full-matrix least squares to a final R value of 0.053.

3,5-Diphenyl-1,2-dithiolium-4-olate (1) reacts with aniline to form 1-phenylimino-2-phenylamino-3-phenylindene (3a). Under suitable conditions, 6-phenylbenzo[b]indeno[1,2-e]-1,2-thiazine is also formed. These structures are confirmed by alternative syntheses. The molecular structure of 3a has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Compound 3a crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with unit cell dimensions a = 20.777(3) Å, b = 6.130(3) Å, c = 31.327(3) Å, 3 = 99.59(1)°, and Z = 8. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined by least squares to a final R = 0.055. The molecular structure of 3a shows the three phenyl containing substituents to have the planes of their ring systems tilted between 40° and 60° from the plane of the indene system due to steric repulsions.

A crystalline complex of tetrathiafulvalene and p-dinitrobenzene has been prepared and characterised by esr and ir spectroscopy, bulk magnetic susceptibility, dc conductivity, and an X-ray diffraction analysis. It is a neutral 1:1 complex which is an insulator at room temperature, σRT = 2.5 × 10−7 ohm−7 cm−1. The complex crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group [Formula: see text] with cell constants a = 6.915(1), b = 7.615(1), c = 8.149(1) Å, α = 79.39(1), β = 69.55(1), γ = 70.81(1)°, Z = 1. Data were collected on an Enraf-Nonius CAD-4 diffractometer. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined to an R-value of 0.028 for 1222 observed reflections. The structure consists of molecules stacked in an alternating donor–acceptor fashion along the c-axis. Mixed sheets parallel to [Formula: see text] are comprised of tetrathiafulvalene and p-dinitrobenzene molecules arranged end-on in the [021] direction.

The room-temperature reaction of Me3Ga with benzimidazole 2-carboxylic acid in xylene solvent has yielded a novel crystalline hexameric gallium compound with "MeGa" moieties bridged by the doubly depronotated ligand precursor. Crystals of [MeGa(4,5-benzimidazolato-2-carboxylato)]6·(C6H6)·(m-Me2C6H4)2 are monoclinic, a = 18.091(2), b = 17.094(2), c = 13.2215(5) Å, Z = 2, space group C2/m. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R (F, I [Formula: see text] 3σ(I)) = 0.064 (Rw (F2, all data) = 0.134). The hexameric Ga complex contains a six-membered ring of Ga atoms, bridged by the benzimidazolate ligands with the benzo rings projecting alternately above and below the Ga plane, thus forming a ball-shaped molecule. The complex could have ideal D3d symmetry, but it contains an encapsulated molecule of benzene, which distorts the regularity of the Ga6 hexagon, and reduces the symmetry of the complex to the crystallographically observed C2h. The coordination geometry at each of the two independent GaO2N2C centres approximates a trigonal bipyramid, with a N2C trigonal plane, and the O atoms above and below; average dimensions are Ga-O = 2.176(2), Ga-N = 1.973(3), Ga-C = 1.927(5) Å, O-Ga-O = 165°. The unit cell also contains four m-xylene solvent molecules (outside the molecular cage).Key words: gallium, crystal structure, benzene intercalate, benzimidazolecarboxylic acid.

The crystal structure of Mg2As2O7 has been refined by full matrix least squares procedures using 587 observed reflections. The structure of Mg2As2O7 is of the thortveitite type, as reported by Łukaszewicz, with space group C2/m and unit cell dimensions a = 6.567(2) Å, b = 8.524(4) Å, c = 4.739(1) Å, β = 103.8(1)°, and Z = 2. The As—O—As group in the anion appears to be linear but the central oxygen atom undergoes considerable disorder in the plane perpendicular to this group. The AsO bond distances uncorrected for thermal motion are 1.67 Å for the As—O(—As) bond and 1.66 and 1.65 Å for the terminal As—O bonds. The final R value obtained is 0.088.

α-Zn2V2O7 is monoclinic with lattice parameters a = 7.429(5), b = 8.340(3), c = 10.098(3) Å, β = 111.37(5)°, Z = 4 and space group C2/c. The structure was refined using a full matrix least-squares with 1034 reflections measured with a quarter-circle General Electric automatic X-ray diffractometer to a final R value of 0.066. The anion consists of a pair of VO4 tetrahedra sharing an oxygen atom which lies on a two-fold axis. The bridging V—O bond length is 1.775(4) Å while the three independent terminal ones are 1.728(4), 1.704(7), and 1.658(8) Å long. These bond lengths are consistent with the charge character around the individual oxygen atoms. The Zn ions are coordinated to five oxygen atoms with Zn—O bonds ranging from 1.973 to 2.088°Å. The structure is similar to that of α-CU2P2O7 and transforms to the thortvietite structure at about 615 °C.

Local Conformation

Hexadecamethylcyclooctaphosphazene N8P8Me16, 1, forms a 1:1 complex, 2, with cobalt(II) nitrate. Crystals of 2 are triclinic, a = 10.891(2), b = 11.201(2), c = 14.944(2) Å, α = 93.21(1), β = 95.66(1), γ = 104.69(1)°, Z = 2, space group [Formula: see text]. The crystal structure was solved by direct methods and was refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R = 0.037 and Rw = 0.047 for 5165 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I). All the hydrogen atoms were found. The structure consists of a cation [N8P8Me16CoNO3]+ and a free nitrate anion. The cobalt atom is coordinated by an unsymmetrical bidentate nitrate ion and by four nitrogen atoms of the phosphazene ring. The metal is attached near one end of the ring, forming six-, ten-, and two four-membered chelate rings, and induces bond length variations which are independent of local conformation and which arise from the localization of bonding electrons.

Crystal structure determinations of (LH)2(B10H10), (1), and (LH2)(B10H10), (2), L = 2,2'- bipyridine , have been carried out by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods at 295 K, being refined by full-matrix least squares to residuals of 0.041, 0.047 for 1758, 1771 'observed' independent reflections respectively. Crystals of (1) are monoclinic, P21/n, a 12.040(7), b 17.71(1), c 11.142(4) �, β 101.78(4)�, Z 4. Crystals of (2) are monoclinic, P21/c, a 9.937(4), b 10.837(3), c 14.856(5) �, β 109 2l(3)�, Z 4. The colour of the compounds is accounted for by charge-transfer interactions of a novel type, namely between the positively charged cationic acid hydrogen atoms and the negatively charged non-apical hydrogen atoms of the anion. In yellow (1), these distances are 2.26(5) �, while in red (2), they are much shorter, being 1.89(4), 1.97(3) �.

Alkaline chlorination of the 4-alkyl-2,6-dichlorophenols (2b) and (2c) proceeds through ring contraction and halolactonization to form the 4α- alkyl-2,2,5α-trichloro-1α,3α-dihydroxycyclopentane-1,4-carbolactones (4b) and (4c). Under similar conditions, 2,4,6-trichlorophenol affords the analogous 2,2,4α,5α-tetrachloro-1α,3α-dihydroxycyclopentane-1,4- carbolactone (4a) in low yield, in addition to the Hantzsch acid (3a) as the major product. The acid (3a) upon further treatment undergoes chloro-lactonization to give the lactone (4a). The structures of the lactones (4b) and (4c) follow from spectroscopic comparison with (4a), the structure of which has been established by X-ray diffraction (C6H4Cl4O4 orthorhombic a 13.485(1), b 12.348(1), c 11.371(1) Ǻ, space group Pccn, Z 8, solved by direct methods and refined by block-diagonal and full-matrix least squares to R 0.031, Rw 0.043 for 1313 unique counter data with I/σ(I) ≥ 3.0).
