Ammonium dithiocarbamate, H2NCS2NH4, decomposes easily but the anion forms a stable mercury(II) complex, the crystals of which are orthorhombic with a = 7.851(3), b = 17.565(7), c = 12.051(3) Å, and space group Pbca. The structure was solved by the Patterson method and refined by the full-matrix least-squares method to an R of 0.038 for 781 reflections. The structure consists of layers of two-dimensional polymeric networks. The dimeric subunits in the layer containing two each of mutually connected Hg atoms and dithiocarbamates are further linked by other bridging dithiocarbamates forming a sheet-like structure. Each Hg atom bonds to four S atoms from four separate dithiocarbamates with Hg—S distances of 2.499(4), 2.508(4), 2.533(4), and 2.629(4) Å. The ir bands observed were: ν(NH2), 3320, 3220, 3125; δ(NH2), 1600; ν(C—N), 1395; ρr(NH2), 1172; and v(C—S), 840 cm−1. The mass spectrum of this polymeric compound gave peaks corresponding to Hg, S2, CNH2, HNCS, S, CS2, S5, S4, S3, and S8 in the order of their intensities.

Pt(II) monomeric complexes of N-containing macrocycles have been synthesized and characterized in solution by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and electrospray mass spectroscopy (ESMS) and in the solid state by X-ray crystallography. Crystals of [Pt(cyclam)](ClO4)2 (cyclam = 1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane) are orthorhombic, space group P21cn, a = 9.596 (3), b = 14.595 (21), c = 24.8782 (20) Å, Z = 8. The structure was solved by direct methods and was refined by the full-matrix least-squares method to R = 0.073 and Rw = 0.093 for 2976 reflections with I ≥ 2.5σ(I). Crystals of [Pt(N-methylcyclam)]-(ClO4)2•CH3CN (N-methylcyclam = 1,4,8,11 tetramethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane = NMe4cyclam = tmc) are orthorhombic, space group Pmcn, a = 9.574 (8), b = 14.116 (5), c = 17.5456 (15) Å, Z = 4. The structure was solved by direct methods and was refined by the full-matrix least-squares method to R = 0.067 and Rw = 0.091 for 2216 reflections with I ≥ 2.5σ(I). Cyclic voltammetry and EPR spectroscopy have been used to study the redox reactivity of the Pt(II)and Pt(IV) complex ions. The solution chemistry of Pt(IV) complexes based on cyclam and N-methylcyclam was investigated by electrospray mass spectrometry. Electrospray mass spectral evidence has been obtained for the formation of [Pt(III)(cyclam)Cl2]+ and [Pt(III)(N-methylcyclam)Cl2]+ ions. Keywords: Pt macrocycles, crystallography, electrospray mass spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, Pt(III) complex ions, tetraaza macrocycles.

Silver tetrafluoroborate reacts with 2,6-lutidine ( lut ), in dichloromethane solution, to form the polymeric compound [Ag( lut )2(�4-BF4)]n. The polymeric structure is comprised of [Ag( lut )2]+ units each of which is connected by two bidentate links to two [�4-BF4]-anions. The compound crystallizes in the tetragonal space group I41/acd with a 15 .O69(4) and c l4.391(3) �. A full-matrix least-squares refinement on 271 reflections, with I ≥ 2.5σ(I), converged with final R 0.027 and Rw 0.025. The complex exhibits an unusual splitting of the BF4 v3 mode into six peaks which has been interpreted as three doublets arising from coupling between the BF4- anions attached to the same silver atom.

Supporting evidence for complex ion formation in MgCl2 alkali chloride melts was sought from a single crystal X-ray analysis of the title compounds. Crystals of K2MgCl4 are tetragonal, a = 4.94, c = 15.58 Å, Z = 2, space group I 4/mmm. The compound is isostructural with K2NiF4, and was determined with MoK α diffractometer data and refined by full-matrix least-squares to R = 0.046 for 180 reflections.Crystals of Cs2MgCl4 are orthorhombic, a = 9.777, b = 7.514, c = 13.234 Å,Z = 4, space group Pnma. The compound is isostructural with β-K2SO4, and was determined with MoKα diffractometer data and refined by full-matrix least-squares to R = 0.074 for 1084 reflections. The K2MgCl4 structure contains an infinite two-dimensional array of MgCl6 octahedra sharing edges. The Cs2MgCl4 structure contains discrete MgCl42− anions which likely continue to exist in the melt close to the melting point.

The structure of the Bender's salt, potassium O-methyl monothiocarbonate (C2H3O2S-K+), has been determined by single crystal X- ray diffraction methods. The crystals are monoclinic of space group P21/c with a 6.7295(5), b 6.9438(5), c 11.1520(10) Ǻ, β 110.93(2)� and Z 4. The structure was solved using a direct phasing programme in conjunction with the Patterson synthesis and refined by a full-matrix least-squares method to R 0.041 for the 788 independent statistically significant reflections collected by counter methods. The crystals are composed of potassium ions and O-methyl monothiocarbonate anions. Each anion is essentially planar with bond lengths and angles having values very similar to those of related systems.

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.

A set of two-dimensional subsonic flows past certain cylinders is obtained using hodograph methods, in which the true pressure-volume relationship is replaced by various straight-line approximations. It is found that the approximation obtained by a least-squares method possibly gives best results. Comparison is made with values obtained by using the von Kármán-Tsien approximation and also with results obtained by the variational approach of Lush & Cherry (1956).

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.

Bromide abstraction from the complexes Re(CO)3L2Br (where L = SbPh3 and L2 = bpy, dpe, tmen)* by AgF2H gives the corresponding fluoro compounds Re(CO)3L2F. Mass spectra and structural data show that the fluoride in these complexes is coordinated to the metal. The structures of Re(CO)3(tmen)F and [Re(CO)3(tmen)F]2H.HOBF3 are reported here. Crystals of Re(CO)3(tmen)F are monoclinic, space group P21/c, with a 8.202(2), b 13.115(9), c 12.048(4) � and β 102 24(3)�. A full-matrix least-squares refinement by using the absorption corrected data gave a conventional R value of 0.041. [Re(CO)3(tmen)F]2H.HOBF3 also crystallizes in the space group P21/c. The lattice parameters are: a 17.495(2), b 10.772(2), c 15.447(1) � and β ( 101.409(8)�. The final R value of a blocked least-squares calculation converged at 0.061. In these two complexes the simple Re-F distance is 2.040(4) �, in Re(CO)3(tmen)F. The Re-F distance is increased to 2.236(10)�, as a result of hydrogen bonding between the fluoride and HOBF3 in the latter compound.
