The crystal structure of cis-chlorobis(triethylphosphine)-1,8-naphthyridineplatinum(II) tetrafluoroborate has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction and refined to an R-value of 0.063. The cell dimensions are a = 1.4246, b = 1.2676, c = 1.6530 nm, β = 115.66°. The space group is P21/c with 4 molecules per unit cell, and the measured density is 1.665 g cm−3. The structure is essentially a 4-coordinate square planar platinum(II) complex containing monodentate 1,8-naphthyridine. Interatomic distances to platinum are: Pt—Cl, 236.6(4); Pt—P(1), 225.4(4); Pt—P(2), 225.2(4); Pt—N(1), 208.3(11); and Pt—N(2), 304.5(14) pm. The structure is discussed in relation to variable temperature nmr studies of solutions, which indicate fluxional behaviour of the heterocyclic ligand.

The crystal structure of cis-chlorobis(triethylphosphine)phthalazineplatinum(II) tetrafluoroborate has been determinee by single crystal X-ray diffraction and refined to an R-value of 0.076 for 1935 reflections. The cell dimensions are a = 1315.7(2), b = 2462.7(4), c = 899.6(3) pm, β = 104.99(2)°. The space group is P21/c with 4 molecules per unit cell, ρo = 1.593, ρc = 1.613 g cm−3. The structure is a square planar 4-coordinate platinum(II) complex with an angle of 80.0° between the plane of the phthalazine molecule and that of the coordination. Interatomic distances to platinum are Pt—Cl, 235.4(9); Pt—P(1), 225.2(8); Pt—P(2), 226.9(8); Pt—N(1), 208(3); and Pt—N(2), 297(3) pm, the phthalazine ligand being monodentate. The structure is compared to previous results and discussed in relation to variable temperature nmr studies of solutions, which show that the heterocyclic ligand exchanges its point of attachment to and fro between N(1) and N(2) by a dissociative mechanism at elevated temperatures.

Preparation and magnetic properties of a 3,5-dimethylpyrazolate bridged binuclear copper(II) complex [Cu2(L)(3 ,5 -pyz)] (L = 1,3-Bis(2-Hydroxy-5-Chlorosalicylideneamino)propan- 2-ol) is reported. The crystal structure determined by X-ray diffraction methods. (C22H20N4O3CI2CU2), triclinic, space group P1̄, a = 9.622(3), b = 10.921(2), c = 11.420(3) Å, α = 100.73(2), β = 94.04(2), Υ = 108.08(2)°, V = 1110.2(5) Å3, Z = 2. Two copper(II) ions in a square-planar coordination are bridged via alkoxide oxygen and 3,5-dimethyl pyrozolate nitrogen atoms to form a dinuclear unit. The metal coordination sphere is four-coordinate, planar with an N2O2 donor set. The dihedral angle between the two coordination planes is 166.83°. There are significant intermolecular interactions between neighbouring binuclear entities. The shortest intermolecular Cu (1) ... Cu(1)i distance is 3.383(1) Å and the Cu(1) - O ( 1)i distance is 2.666(3) Å (i = 1 -x, -y, 1 - z). The variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility measurement for a powdered sample of the complex was carried out in the temperature range 5 - 350 K and analysed to obtain values of the parameter J in the exchange Hamiltonian ℋ = -2JScu Scu; 2J = -164 cm-1. The magnetic moment at 300 K is about 2.42 μB, and 0.22 μB at 5 K. The weak antiferromagnetism of the present complex is reasonably explained in terms of the orbital countercomplementary effect based on Hoffmann's theory for super-exchange interaction

The crystal structure of cis-chlorobis(triethylphosphine)-1,10-phenanthrolineplatinum(II) fluoroborate has been determined and refined to an R-value of 0.051. The space group is P21/c and the cell dimensions are a = 0.9215(2), b = 1.1991(3), c = 2.6832(6) nm, β = 99.38(3)°, with 4 molecules per unit cell. The interatomic distances to Pt are: Pt—N(1), 213.7(19); Pt—N(2), 284.3(20); Pt—P(1), 223.9(7); Pt—P(2), 224.1(6); Pt—Cl, 236.1(6) pm.The coordination number and geometry is discussed in terms of 5-coordinate tetragonal pyramidal and 4-coordinate square planar models, the latter being regarded as the more acceptable.Monodentate o-phenanthroline is thus observed for the first time in the solid state. The structure of the complex in solution is discussed with the aid of conductance and nuclear magnetic resonance results which suggest the possibility of a novel fluxional system.

Reaction of "cyclamphosphorane" (cyclamPH) with [Pt2Cl4(PEt3)2] yields [PtCl(PEt3)(cyclamPH)]Cl. The complex crystallizes as a dichloromethane solvate in the monoclinic space group P21/n, with a = 13.877(3), b = 23.231(7), c = 8.295(2)Å, β = 91.86(4)°, and an X-ray diffraction study shows square planar platinum coordination in which the labile proton of cyclamPH has transferred from phosphorus to nitrogen and the ligand is attached via simple [Formula: see text] chelation. The phosphorus is trans to chlorine in the platinum coordination plane.The corresponding product, trans-[PtCl2(PEt3)(cyclenPH2)]Cl, derived from reaction of "cyclenphosphorane" (cyclenPH) with [Pt2Cl4(PEt3)2], is shown by NMR studies to have a quite different structure in which the ligand is protonated at two nitrogen sites but not at phosphorus. The phosphorus is pentacoordinate with four attachments to nitrogen atoms and one to platinum. The two chlorine atoms are mutually trans in the platinum coordination plane. Keywords: crystal structure, cyclenphosphorane reaction, cyclamphosphorane reaction, X-ray diffraction.

The crystal structure of Cs2[Pt(CN)4] · H2O has been determined from X-ray diffraction data and refined to a conventional R value of 0.068 from 2210 reflections. The compound is hexagonal, α = 9.687(2) and c = 19.336(6) A, space group C62-P 61, Z = 6. The given atomic coordinates represent the absolute configuration. The nearly square planar Pt(CN)42- groups form a helix with respect to the c axis. The distance between neighbouring Pt atoms in the helix is 3.543(1) A. The normal of the Pt(CN)42- group is tilted about 15 deg to the c axis leading to a considerable overlap of metal orbitals which is suggested from optical emission studies. The protons of the water molecules form hydrogen bonds to nitrogen atoms of different helices. Both Cs atoms have similar sevenfold coordination.

A new solvatomorph of [Au3(1-Methylimidazolate)3] (Au3(MeIm)3)—the simplest congener of imidazolate-based Au(I) cyclic trinuclear complexes (CTCs)—has been identified and structurally characterized. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction revealed a dichloromethane solvate exhibiting remarkably short intermolecular Au⋯Au distances (3.2190(7) Å). This goes along with a dimer formation in the solid state, which is not observed in a previously reported solvent-free crystal structure. Hirshfeld analysis, in combination with density functional theory (DFT) calculations, indicates that the dimerization is generally driven by attractive aurophilic interactions, which are commonly associated with the luminescence properties of CTCs. Since Au3(MeIm)3 has previously been reported to be emissive in the solid-state, we conducted a thorough photophysical study combined with phase analysis by means of powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), to correctly attribute the photophysically active phase of the bulk material. Interestingly, all investigated powder samples accessed via different preparation methods can be assigned to the pristine solvent-free crystal structure, showing no aurophilic interactions. Finally, the observed strong thermochromism of the solid-state material was investigated by means of variable-temperature PXRD, ruling out a significant phase transition being responsible for the drastic change of the emission properties (hypsochromic shift from 710 nm to 510 nm) when lowering the temperature down to 77 K.

Single crystals of rubidium tetrafluoridobromate(III), RbBrF4, were grown by melting and recrystallizing RbBrF4 from its melt. This is the first determination of the crystal structure of RbBrF4 using single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. We confirmed that the structure contains square-planar [BrF4]− anions and rubidium cations that are coordinated by F atoms in a square-antiprismatic manner. The compound crystallizes in the KBrF4 structure type. Atomic coordinates and bond lengths and angles were determined with higher precision than in a previous report based on powder X-ray diffraction data [Ivlev et al. (2015). Z. Anorg. Allg. Chem. 641, 2593–2598].

The crystal structure of natural diterpenoid alkaloid ranaconitine isolated from Aconitum sinomontanum Nakai has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The crystal presents a monoclinic system, space group C2 with Z = 4, unit cell dimensions a = 30.972(19) Å, b = 7.688(5) Å, and c = 19.632(12) Å. Moreover, the intermolecular O–H···O hydrogen bonds and weak π-π interactions play a critical role in expanding the dimensionality.
