The synthesis of novel allylic derivatives of Ni and Pd incorporating the bispyrazolylgallate ligand Me2Ga(N2C5H7)2− is described. Pyrazolyl-bridged homobinuclear and trinuclear nickel allyl systems are also presented. Crystal structures of [Me2Ga(N2C5H7)2]Ni(η3-C3H5) and [(η3-C3H5)Ni(N2C5H7)2]2Ni are described. Crystals of the former are triclinic, a = 8.265(1), b = 10.487(1), c = 11.755(2) Å, α = 72.60(1), β = 87.28(1), γ = 67.58(1)°, Z = 2, space group [Formula: see text] and crystals of the latter are monoclinic, a = 7.9172(3), b = 10.6929(1), c = 16.9118(6) Å, β = 102.887(2)°, Z = 2, space group P21/c. Both structures were solved by Patterson and Fourier syntheses and were refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R = 0.026 and 0.025 for 3329 and 2914 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I) respectively. In both structures the M—(N—N)2—M rings are in the boat conformation and the allyl groups display twofold orientational disorder. In [Me2Ga(N2C5H7)2]Ni(η3-C3H5) the nickel coordination may be regarded as square-planar with the allyl ligand occupying two coordination sites and the coordination about the gallium is distorted tetrahedral. Important bond lengths (corrected for libration) are: Ni—N, 1.926(2) and 1.929(2), Ni—C, 1.971(5)–2.025(3), Ga—N, 1.994(2) and 1.996(2), Ga—C, 1.966(3) and 1.988(3) Å. The trinuclear complex [(η3-C3H5)Ni(N2C5H7)2]2Ni is centrosymmetric with the central Ni(1) atom bonded to four pyrazolyl nitrogen atoms in square-planar fashion. The outer Ni(2) atom is bonded to two pyrazolyl nitrogens and to an allyl group and also has square-planar coordination geometry. Important bond distances in this complex are: Ni(1)—N, 1.897(1) and 1.901(1), Ni(2)—N, 1.908(2) and 1.912(2), Ni(2)—C, 1.97(l)–2.022(3) Å.

Zinc metal reacts with excess 3,5-dimethylpyrazole (Hdmpz) in the presence of O2 to produce materials of composition Zn(dmpz)2(Hdmpz)y. Thermolysis of these materials results in the loss of Hdmpz and the formation of the [Zn(dmpz)2]x polymer. Under appropriate conditions the pure dimer [Zn2(dmpz)4(Hdmpz)2] can be obtained in high yield. Crystals of bis[μ-(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl-N1,N2)]bis[(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)(3,5-dimethylpyrazole)zinc(II)] are orthorhombic, a = 17.009(2), b = 29.239(2), c = 13.590(2) Å, Z = 8, space group Fddd. The structure was solved by heavy atom methods and was refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R = 0.037 and Rw = 0.042 for 913 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I). The structure of [Zn2(dmpz)4(Hdmpz)2] contains nearly planar doubly dmpz bridged Zn2 units capped at each end by strongly hydrogen-bonded [Formula: see text] units. The zinc atoms display pseudotetrahedral coordination geometry with Zn—N = 1.991(3) (bridging) and 2.025(3) Å (terminal), and N—Zn—N = 99.6(2)–113.8(2)°. Keywords: zinc 3,5-dimethylpyrazolate complexes, crystal structure.

A series of neutral pyrazolyl-bridged nickel nitrosyl complexes, [LNi(NO)]2 (where L = pyrazolyl, N2C3H3; 3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl, N2C5H7; or 3,5-di-tert-butylpyrazolyl, N2C11H19), is described. The nickel atoms are susceptible to nucleophilic attack and the reactivity of the dimers with neutral donor ligands is reported. In addition to the dimeric molecules a novel trimetallic nickel compound [(ON)Ni(N2C5H7)2]2Ni has also been isolated. Crystals of [Ni(NO)(N2C5H7)]2 are monoclinic, a = 18.925(2), b = 11.012(1), c = 7.037(2) Å, β = 100.93(1)°, Z = 4, space group C2/c and crystals of [(ON)Ni(N2C5H7)2]2Ni are triclinic, a = 7.4041(7), b = 9.6331(7), c = 9.7595(8) Å, α = 85.698(9), β = 73.174(8), γ = 76.109(8)°, Z = 1, space group [Formula: see text]. Both structures were solved by Patterson and Fourier syntheses and were refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R = 0.035 and 0.028 for 832 and 2128 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I) respectively. Nearly planar centrosymmetric molecules of [Ni(NO)(N2C5H7)]2 contain trigonal planar nickel atoms with Ni—N(pyrazolyl) = 1.880(3) and 1.922(3), Ni—NO = 1.616(4), and N—O = 1.158(4) Å, Ni—N—O = 178.9(4)°. This structure also contains an unusually long N—N bond in the pyrazolyl ring (1.463(4) Å). Centrosymmetric molecules of [(ON)Ni(N2C5H7)2]2Ni contain a central square-planar Ni(II) atom bonded to four pyrazolyl nitrogen atoms (mean Ni—N = 1.905(1) Å) and two trigonal planar outer nickel atoms coordinated to two pyrazolyl nitrogen atoms (mean Ni—N = 1.922(3) Å) and to a somewhat bent nitrosyl group (Ni—N = 1.625(3), N—O = 1.153(4) Å, Ni—N—O = 168.9(3)°).

The complex (5, 10, 15, 20-tetraphenylporphinato)bis(tri-n-butylphosphine)iron(II), 1, has been isolated in a triclinic crystal form, a = 12.499(3), b = 12.528(2), c = 12.039(2) Å, α = 116.39(1), β = 109.79(1), γ = 98.13(1)°, Z = 1, space group [Formula: see text]. The structure was solved by conventional heavy atom methods and was refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R = 0.060 and Rw = 0.070 for 3551 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I). The molecule, which has crystallographic [Formula: see text], symmetry, displays a relatively undistorted pseudo-octahedral coordination geometry with Fe—P = 2.346(1) and Fe—N = 1.998(3) and 1.993(3) Å. In CH2Cl2 solution, 1 reacts with CO and aldehydes to generate the carbonyl(phosphine) derivative, and decarbonylation of phenylacetaldehyde to toluene becomes catalytic under an Ar stream. The aldehyde decarbonylations involve radical pathways via carbonyl loss from [Formula: see text]. The hydrogen abstraction/initiation reaction probably utilizes trace O2 (and possibly trace (water); speculative mechanisms are discussed.

Tetrakis(p-methylsulphonylphenyl)tin(IV) and tetrakis(p-methylsulphinylphenyl)tin(IV) n-hydrate have been prepared and their spectra (ir 1350–400 cm−1; nmr, 1H, 13C, 119Sn) and X-ray crystal structures are reported. The first compound is monoclinic, space group C2/c, Z = 4, with a = 21.589(6), b = 6.207(3), c = 22.861(11) Å, β = 93.80(3)° (22 °C); the structure was solved by the direct method and refined by full-matrix least squares calculations to R = 0.043 for 2755 observed reflections. It has 2 molecular symmetry with the methyl group and one oxygen atom completely disordered in both CH3S(O2) groups in the asymmetric unit. The second compound is tetragonal, space group P42/n, Z = 2, with a = b = 15.408(6), c = 6.379(2) Å (−100 °C); the structure was solved by the Patterson method and refined by full-matrix least squares calculations to R = 0.060 for 1209 observed reflections. It has [Formula: see text] molecular symmetry with the whole asymmetric unit disordered. Water molecules occupy positions on parallel 42 axes but molecular packing requirements prevent all sites having 100% occupancy giving n ~ 1 for the hydrate. Keywords: Tetra-aryltins, crystal structures, sulphone, sulphoxide, hydrogen-bonding.

New complexes of Pt(II) with condensation derivatives of ethyl hydrazinoacetate and either 2-acetylpyridine or 2-quinolinecarboxaldehyde, and of Pd(II) with the condensation derivative of ethyl hydrazinoacetate and 2-quinolinecarboxaldehyde were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, 1H- and 13C-NMR spectroscopy, and molar conductivity measurements. The complexes have a square planar geometry, ligands binding as bidentates in the neutral form, and the remaining two coordination sites being occupied by chloride ions. Biological activity of new complexes, and of previously synthesized Pd(II), Cd(II), Co(III) and Zn(II) complexes with this ligand type was evaluated by the brine shrimp test. All the complexes showed a moderate activity.

Crystals of (salicylaldoximato-O,N)diphenylboron are triclinic, a = 10.125(2), b = 10.797(1), c = 14.760(2) Å, α = 89.05(1), β = 86.98(1), γ = 83.18(1)°, Z = 4, space group [Formula: see text]. The structure was solved by direct methods and was refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R = 0.040 and Rw = 0.048 for4145 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I). The structure consists of two crystallographically independent, but essentially identical, molecules linked by strong [Formula: see text] hydrogen bonds to form continuous spirals along the a axis. The Ph2B moiety is chelated by the phenolic oxygen and oxime nitrogen atoms of the ligand resulting in the formation of a non-planar six-membered chelate ring. Important libration-corrected mean bond lengths are O—B = 1.516(1), N—B = 1.609(2), and C—B = 1.613(2) Å.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Pd2Cl2(C20H26P)2]·2CH2Cl2, contains one half-molecule of the palladium complex and a dichloromethane solvent molecule. In the complex, two PdIIatoms are bridged by two Cl atoms, with the other two coordination sites occupied by a C atom of the biphenyl system and a P atom, resulting in a distorted square-planar coordination geometry of the PdIIatom and a cyclometallated four-membered ring. The Pd2Cl2unit is located about an inversion center. The planes of the rings of the biphenyl system make a dihedral angle of 66.36 (11)°.

The complexes Re(CO)5ClO4, Re(CO)5PO2F2, L2(CO)3Re(OClO3) and L2(CO)3Re(PO2F2), where L2 = 2,2?-bipyridyl (bpy), have been synthesized by bromide abstraction reactions from the respective rhenium carbonyl bromide precursors. The complexes were characterized by infrared and mass spectroscopy. The crystal structure of (bpy)(CO)3Re(PO2F2) has been determined from X-ray diffraction data by the heavy-atom technique. The crystals are triclinic, space group Pī with a 8.620(3), b 15.912(5), c 6.466(3) Ǻ, α 102.08(8), β 83.29(8), γ 95.08(4) and Z 2. The structure has been refined by full-matrix least-squares from 2829 reflections to R = 0.084, Rw = 0.088. The coordination geometry about rhenium is that of a distorted octahedron. Difluorophosphate coordinates to the metal centre by one of its oxygen atoms. Formation of the difluorophosphate by hydrolysis of hexafluorophosphate was shown by 31P n.m.r. spectra.
