The crystals of C17H19NO5 belong to the monoclinic space group P21/n with a = 15.793(3), b = 4.089(4), c = 24.649(5) Å, β = 97.56(3)° V = 157 8(2) Å3, and Z = 4. The structure was solved by MULTAN 78 and refined by full-matrix least-squares to a final R of 0.053 for 1863 observed reflections. X-ray crystallography has revealed that the molecule is the Δ3 isomer and not the Δ5 isomer suggested originally from nmr spectroscopy. The piperidyl nitrogen is sp2 hybridized with its electron lone pair involved in conjugation with the carbonyl groups. The piperidone ring adopts a distorted boat conformation. An interesting feature of the structure is the formation of two C(ethylenic)—H … O(keto) intramolecular hydrogen bonds which stabilize the molecular conformation.

The reaction of norbornadiene with (triphenylphosphoranediyl)aminocyclotrithiatriazene produces the cycloadduct Ph3PN—S3N3•C7H8. The crystal and molecular structure of this compound has been determined by X-ray crystallography. Crystals of Ph3PN—S3N3•C7H8 are monoclinic, space group P21/c, a = 9.757(1), b = 15.114(1), c = 16.535(2) Å, β = 100.73(1)°, V = 2395.7(9) Å3, and Z = 4. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined by Fourier and full-matrix least-squares procedures to give a final R of 0.040 and Rw of 0.058 for 2620 observed reflections. The structure reveals that the S3N3 ring adds to norbornadiene in an exo fashion via two sulphur atoms. The S3N3 ring adopts a chair conformation with the three ligands occupying axial positions on the same side of the ring. The relative rates of this and other cycloadditions involving SN substrates and olefins are discussed in terms of the energies of the interacting frontier orbitals. The results suggest that HOMO(olefin)–LUMO(SN substrate) interactions control the kinetics of these reactions.

The crystal and molecular structures of pentane-2,4-dionato-(2,3,5,6-tetrahapto-2,3-dicarbomethoxo[2.2.1]bicycloheptadienerhodium(I), Rh(C5H7O2)(C7H6(CO2CH3)2), have been measured by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The orange crystals are monoclinic, space group P21/c, Z = 4, a = 9.245(4), b = 9.003(4), c = 21.680(15) Å, β = 113.41(5)°. The calculated and observed densities are 1.645 and 1.642(5) respectively. Intensity data were collected on a Syntex [Formula: see text] diffractometer and a full matrix least squares refinement on 3010 observed reflections leads to a conventional R = 0.0660. The structure can be considered as a roughly square planar arrangement of ligands around the rhodium atom composed of two β-ketoenolate oxygen atoms (Rh—O, 2.037(5) and 2.025(5) Å ) and the centers of the two ethylenic groups. The Rh—C distances for the olefin group attached to the two carbomethoxo groups, 2.117(8), 2.108(8) Å, appear to be slightly larger than those for the other olefinic group, 2.087(7), 2.082(6), and the corresponding C=C distances of 1.375(10) and 1.410(9) Å are different at the 95% confidence level.

The crystal structure of 1,4-diphenyl-2,2′,3,3′,5,5′,6,6′-octamethylcyclo-1,4-diphospha-2,3,5,6-tetrasilahexane, (PhPSi2Me4)2, has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystals are monoclinic, space group P21/c, with a = 9.866(1), b = 11.921(1), and c = 11.324(2) Å, β = 104.31(1)°, Z = 2, and ρcalcd = 1.15 g/cm3. The structure was solved by direct methods and was refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to a final R of 0.060 and Rw of 0.078, for 1173 reflections with intensities greater than 3σ. The (PhPSi2Me4)2 molecule lies on a crystallographic centre of symmetry, and the six-membered P2Si4 ring has a chair conformation with equatorial phenyl groups. The endocyclic angles at P (104.4(1)°) and Si (104.9(2)°) are intermediate between those found in cyclic hexaphosphine and hexasilane molecules, and the Si—Si and P—Si distances of 2.345(3) and 2.252(4) Å, respectively, correspond to single bond lengths, with no appreciable evidence for secondary pπ → dπ bonding between phosphorus and silicon. The Si—C (1.867(8) Å) and P—C (1.828(7) Å) bond lengths are also normal. The variations in the Si—P—C (101.6(2)°, 108.6(2)°), P—Si—C (range 106.2(3)–120.0(3)°), and Si—Si—C (range 105.8(3)–113.7(3)°) angles indicate that the positions of the exocyclic methyl and phenyl groups are influenced by both intra- and intermolecular steric forces.

New amineruthenium and amineiridium hydride derivatives have been synthesized and characterized with the objective of observing intramolecular [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text] interactions. These include RuHCl(CO)(L)(PPri3)2 (1a, L = NH2NH2; 1b, L = NH3) and IrCl2(L)(H)(PCy3)2 (2a, L = SC(NH2)2; 2b, L = NH3; 2c, L = NH2NH2; 2d, L = NH2(CH2)3NH2; 2e, L = NH2OH). Instead, weak [Formula: see text] van der Waals contacts have been detected in the solid state by X-ray analysis and in solution by NMR T1 measurements and nOe techniques. Both X-ray crystal structure analysis and minimum T1 measurements indicate that the [Formula: see text] distances in the [Formula: see text] interactions are ca•2.0–2.2 Å. The weak interactions might influence the course of deuteration of these complexes under D2 gas. The crystal and molecular structure of IrCl2(NH3)(H)(PCy3)22a has been determined by X-ray diffraction at 173 K: monoclinic, space group P21/n, a = 14.859(2) Å, b = 18.579(3) Å, c = 18.548(3) Å, β = 97.29(1)°, V = 5079.1(13) Å3, Z = 4, full-matrix least-squares refinement on F2 for 10 953 independent reflections; R[F2 > 4σ(F2)] = 0.0283, wR(F2) = 0.0704. Keywords: ruthenium, iridium, hydride, dihydrogen, complexes, hydrogen bond, NMR, X-ray.

The crystal and molecular structure of chloro(methyl phytochlorinato)iron(III), 4, have been determined by single crystal X-ray crystallography to obtain further information on the conformation of metallochlorins related to chlorophyll. The compound crystallized with two independent molecules mainly distinguished by the orientation of the axial ligand. The macrocycles show significant deviations from planarity larger than those observed in corresponding magnesium(II) complexes. The overall type of distortion is similar to those found in chlorophyllides. Compound 4 crystallized in the monoclinic space group P21 (MoKa,λ = 0.71063 A) with unit cell dimensions a = 12.035(6) Å, b = 13.396(8) Å, c = 19.04(2), b = 97.51(2) Å, Z = 4, V = 3043(4) Å3. The structure was refined to an R-value of 0.075 on the basis of 3974 reflections with I > 3.0σ(Ι) (130 Κ).

The structure of mer-(Pme2Ph)3Cl-cis-H2IrIII (1) has been determined by single-crystal X-ray and neutron diffraction analyses. Crystals are monoclinic, space group P21, with a 11.476(4), b 14.069(5), c 8.286(3)Ǻ, β 92.45(1)° and Z 2. Full-matrix least-squares analyses converged 0.022 for 7773 X-ray data and R(F2) = 0.062 for 1538 neutron data. Ir -H [1.557(11)Ǻ trans to Cl, 1.603(10) Ǻ trans to P] and Ir -P distances [2.292(1)Ǻ trans to P, 2.328(1)Ǻ trans to H] both exhibit trans lengthening effects. Consistent with the increased hydride content the Ir -P distances in (1) are c. 0.04 Ǻ shorter than for the corresponding bonds in its dichloro monohydrido analogues and c. 0.08 Ǻ shorter than those in the trichloride . In contrast Ir-Cl [2.505(1)Ǻ] is not significantly different to the corresponding distance (2.504 Ǻ av.) in mer -(PMe2Ph)3-cis-Cl2HIrIII.

The orange, diamagnetic compounds [WS(S2CNR2)3]X(R = Me, X- = BF4-, BPh4-;R = Et, X- =BF4-) were prepared by reacting WSCl4 and Me3SiS2CNR2 in dichloromethane, followed by metathesis with NaX in methanol. The compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, infrared and variable-temperature 1H n.m.r. spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. Crystals of [WS(S2CNEt2)3] BF4 were monoclinic, space group P21/a with a 12.293(1), b 17.229(5), c 14.257(2) Ǻ,β 113.69(1)°, V 2765(2) Ǻ3 and Dc = 1.796 g cm-3 for Z = 4. The structure was solved by the Patterson method and refined by a full-matrix least-squares procedure, 3961data being used, to a conventional R value of 0.039 ( Rw = 0.040). The seven-coordinate cation possesses a pentagonal-bipyramidal geometry; the terminal thio ligand [W=S 2.127(2)Ǻ] occupies an axial position, a unique dithiocarbamate ligand spans the other axial position and an equatorial position while the two other dithiocarbamate ligands occupy the four remaining equatorial sites.

The structure of mer-trans-(PPri3)2(PH3)H-trans-Cl2IrIII (1) (Pri = isopropyl), the second third-row transition-metal-PH3 complex to be so characterized, has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Crystals are monoclinic, space group C 2/c with a 21.701(2), b 8.735(1), c 15.594(1) Ǻ, β 119.57(1)° and Z 4. Structure refinement by full-matrix least-squares analysis (2811 reflections, 113 parameters) converged with R = 0.016 and Rw = 0.022. Molecules exhibit crystallographically imposed C2 symmetry. The C2 axis passes through the iridium, hydride and PH3 phosphorus atoms, and requires the PH3 hydrogen atoms to be disordered. Important molecular dimensions are Ir-PPri3 2.371(1) Ǻ, Ir-PH3 2.362(1) Ǻ, Ir-Cl 2.374(1) Ǻ and P- Ir -P(trans) 163.21(3)°.

The structure of mer-cis-(PEt2Ph)2(PPri3)H-trans-Cl2IrIII (4) has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Crystals are monoclinic, space group P21/c, with a 11.607(1), b 21.553(1), c 14.066(1) Ǻ, β 109.04(1)? and Z 4. Structure refinement by full-matrix least-squares analysis (3244 unique reflections, 316 parameters) converged with R 0.034 and Rw 0.041. The PEt2Ph ligands are similarly disposed to their PMe2Ph counterparts in mer-cis-(PEt2Ph)2(PPri3)H-trans-Cl2IrIII (2) but the PPri3 ligands are differently oriented and differently configured. Metal-ligand distances [ Ir -P(1,2,3) 2.333(2), 2.404(2), 2.368(2) Ǻ; Ir-Cl (1,2) 2.388(2), 2.400(2) Ǻ] are all within c. 0.02 Ǻ of those in (2). The P-Ir -P(trans) angle is 155.3(1)°.
