The sequence of electrophilic substitution for o- and m-carborane has been the subject of much experimental and theoretical work. The molecular structure of tribromo-m-carborane (m-B10Br3H7C2H2) shows that the third bromine atom to be substituted is found bonded to boron atom 12 (or 5). The crystal data are: space group, Pbcm; a = 8.47(4), b = 12.19(8), and c = 12.25(8) Å; ρo = 1.98(2) and ρc = 2.00 g/cm3 for Z = 4. Data were collected using Weissenberg geometry and Ni-filtered CuK, radiation. The visually estimated intensities of 920 reflections were used in the anisotropic block-diagonalized least-squares refinement of the 76 structural parameters. The final value of the conventional residual index was 0.087.

The crystal structure of dipyrrolidylthiuram disulfide has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques at 295 K. Crystals are monoclinic, space group C2/c, unit cell a 13.835(3), b 10.422(2), c 9.427(3) �, β 97.08(2)� and Z 4. Automatic diffractometry has provided significant Bragg intensities for 1402 independent reflections, and the structure has been refined by least-squares methods to R 0.037. The structure consists of discrete C4H8NC(S)S2C(S)NC4H8 molecules. Half of each molecule is crystallographically unique with distances S-S 2.002(1), and C-S 1.804(2) and 1.645(2) �. The dihedral angle between planar C2NC(S)S portions is 87.9�. The relevance of the derived structural parameters to the question of why the tris(pyrrolidine-1-carbodithioato)iron(III) complex is, uniquely, high spin is discussed.

The compound crystallizes from n-heptane in the space group P21/c with a = 8.910(1), b = 9.686(1), c = 27.489(4) Å, and β = 102.94(2)° with four molecules per unit cell. The structure was solved from 2669 independent reflections with I > 3σ(I) and refined by block diagonal least squares methods to R = 0.032 and Rω = 0.048. Each diphenylphosphino group is bonded to the same hydrazine nitrogen and the geometry about this nitrogen is nearly planar. The average dimensions of the structure are P—C = 1.828 ± 0.005, P—N = 1.715 ± 0.014, N—N = 1.451, and N—C = 1.457 ± 0.003 Å, [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text].

Crystals of 4-bromo-1,1,3,3,5,7,7,9,9- nonamethylbicyclo[4,4,0]pentaborophane, C9H35B5P5Br, are monoclinic, with a = 9.502(3), b = 20.185(15), c = 13.604(4) Ǻ, β = 116.49(2)�. The space group is P21/c, with four molecules in the cell. Intensity data were collected by means of an automated diffractometer. The atomic positions have been determined by least-squares refinement of 2859 observed reflections. The final residual, R, is 0.077. The molecule contains a framework of alternat- ing boron and phosphorus atoms constituting a decalin-like ring system. The two cis-fused cyclo- hexane type rings are both in the chair conformation. The bromine atom is equatorially bonded to the boron atom in the 4-position. The Br-B bond length is 2.039(10) Ǻ. The average P-B and P-C distances are 1.943 and 1.828 Ǻ respectively. Average internal ring angles are 112.2� for P-B-P, and 113.6� for B-P-B. This geometry indicates only very slight charge delocalization in the cyclic system.

Crystals of [dimethyl(3,5-dimethyl-l-pyrazolyl)(ethanolamino)gallato(N(2),O,N(3))](η3-cycloheptatrienyl)dicarbonylmolybdenum are monoclinic, a = 10.511(1), b = 8.335(1), c = 24.138(3) Å, β = 102.22(1)°, Z = 4, space group P21/c. The structure was solved by Patterson and Fourier syntheses and was reflned by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R = 0.028 and Rw = 0.046 for 3708 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I). The crystal structure consists of discrete molecules linked by N—H … O hydrogen bonds (N … O = 2.929(5) Å). The Mo atom is in a distorted octahedral environment with the η3-C7H7 ligand occupying one coordination site, trans to the amino nitrogen, as a π-donating ligand. Important bond distances (corrected for libration) are: Mo—O, 2.245(2), Mo—N(amino), 2.249(3), Mo—N(pyrazolyl), 2.270(3), Mo—C(O), 1.950(4) and 1.947(4), Mo—C(C7H7), 2.176(4), 2.364(4), and 2.380(4), Ga—O, 1.919(3), Ga—N, 1.984(3), and Ga—C, 1.982(5) and 1.983(5) Å. An unusual type of disorder is present in which a second image of the molecule, approximately mirrored by the plane y = 1/4, is in evidence at low occupancy.

The compound S2N2 • 2AlBr3 has been prepared by reaction of S4N4 with AlBr3 in 1,2-dibromoethane at room temperature. Its crystal and molecular structure have been determined by X-ray diffraction; R = 0.068. Crystal data: monoclinic, P 21/n, a = 9.594(5), b = 9.975(4), c = 7.528(4) Å , β = 111.36(5)°. The S2N2 ring of the centrosymmetrical complex is bonded via its nitrogen atoms to two AlBr3 units thus completing coordination tetrahedra around the Al atoms. Bond distances and angles within the S2N2 ring are d(S-N) = 1.629(13) and 1.651(13) Å, ∢ (S-N-S) = 95.8, and ∢ (N-S-N) - 84.2°. Whereas the S-N bond lengths agree closely with those of free S2N2, the angle at N is enlarged by ca. 5° and the angle at S is decreased by ca. 5°. The sulfur atoms form two close S···Br contacts of length 3.149 (intramolecular) and 3.193 (intermolecular) Å , respectively. The intermolecular attractive nonbonded S···Br interactions tie the complexes together in a way that leads to infinite chains which run parallel to the crystallographic z axis

The reaction of N,N′-dihydroxy-N,N′-dimethylmethanediamine with phenylboronic acid leads to the product 1,7-dimethyl-3,5-diphenyl-2,4,6-trioxa-7-aza-1-azonia-3-bora-5-boratabicyclo[3.3.0]octane rather than the expected product 1,5-dimethyl-3-phenyl-1,5-diaza-2,4-dioxa-3-boracyclohexane. The structure of N,N′-dihydroxy-N,N′-dimethylmethanediamine has been determined and is discussed in terms of its reaction with PhB(OH)2. Crystals of N,N′-dihydroxy-N,N′-dimethylmethanediamine are tetragonal, a = 8.5346(3), c = 8.4178(7) Å, Z = 4, space group P421c. The structure was solved by direct methods and was refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to a final R of 0.036 and Rw of 0.038 for 333 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I). The structure consists of hydrogen-bonded dimers having exact [Formula: see text] symmetry. Keywords: N,N′-dihydroxy-N,N′-dimethylmethanediamine, crystal structure.
