The structures of cyclohexan[b]indole N-β-propionic acid (1) and cyclooctan[b]indole N-β-propionic acid (2) have been determined by X-ray methods. The conformational populations of their N-β-propionic chains have been determined in solution by 1H nmr analyses. Crystals of 1 are triclinic, space group [Formula: see text] with a = 12.3562(4), b = 11.0727(3), c = 10.2050(4) Å, α = 108.519(3), β = 83.941(3), γ = 104.826(3)°, and Z = 4. Crystals of 2 are monoclinic, space group P21/c, with a = 5.636(1), b = 18.937(3), c = 13.976(4) Å, β = 98.84(3)°, and Z = 4. In both structures, the molecules are linked forming dimers through centrosymmetric H bonds. In solution the trans conformation of the chain is the preferred one in both compounds and increases with dilution until a constant value is reached.

In a systematic search for supramolecular complexes involving all combinations of the cyclic polyethers 12-crown-4 (12C4), 15-crown-5 (15C 5), 18-crown-6 (18C 6) and dibenzo- 18-crown-6 (DB -18C6), and the geminal di- or trisulfones H2C(SO 2Me)2, H2C (SO2Et)2 and HC (SO2Me)3-n (SO2Et)n (n = 0 -3 ) , only the following four complexes could be isolated and unequivocally characterized by elemental analysis and 1H NMR spectroscopy: [(12C4){H2C (SO2Et)2}2] (3), [(18C6){H2C (S O2Me)2}] (4), [(DB -18C 6){H2C (SO2Et)2}] (5) and [(D B -18C 6)2{HC (SO2Me )(SO2Et)2}3] (6). The structure of 3 (triclinic, space group P1̄) consists of crystallographically centrosymmetric formula units, in which the disulfone molecules are bonded on each side of the ring by two C -H ··· O(crown) interactions originating from the central methylene group (H···O 213 pm) and from the methylene group of one EtSO2 moiety ( H ··· O 237 pm). Formula units related by translation are connected into parallel strands by a third type of reciprocal C -H ···O bond (H ···O 232 pm) between the second H atom of the central methylene group and a sulfonyl oxygen atom of the adjacent unit. The structure of 4 (monoclinic, space group C2/c) showed severe disorder of the crown ether and could not be refined satisfactorily. Compounds 5 and 6 crystallized as long and extremely thin fibres, indicative of linear-polymeric supramolecular structures; single crystals for X-ray crystallography were not available.

Reaction of (1) in CH2Cl2 with benzimidazole yields . The salt [4]+BPh4- has been prepared in THF by metathesis of [4]+Cl- with NaBPh4. Deprotonation of the cationic ring in [4]+BPh4- was accomplished using 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.01,7]undec-7-ene and resulted in the six-membered carbacyclophosphazene (6). Treating 1 with 8 -hydroxyquinoline in CH2Cl2 yields the octahedral cis-complex = 8-oxyquinolinate group). The com pounds [4]+BPh4-, 6 and 7 are characterized by their IR, Raman, 31P{1H} NMR, 13C{1H} NMR, 1H NMR and mass spectra. Crystals suitable for X-ray structure analyses have been obtained for [4]+BPh4- and 7×0.5 CH2Cl2. The colourless plates of [4]+BPh4- crystallize in the triclinic space group P1̄, with the lattice constants a = 1172.7(3), b = 1326.2(3), c = 1806.1(6) pm; α = 100.79(2), β = 103.71(3), γ = 108.18(2)°. The black blocks of 7×0.5 CH2Cl2 crystallize in the monoclinic space group P 21/c with the lattice constants a = 1159.0(10), b = 2008.9(10), c = 2034.6(12) pm; β = 105.86(5)°.

Two new saccharinato-silver(I) (sac) complexes, [Ag(sac)(ampy)] (1), and [Ag2(sac)2(μ-aepy)2] (2), [ampy = 2-(aminomethyl)pyridine, aepy = 2-(2-aminoethyl)pyridine], have been prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, thermal analysis and single crystal X-ray diffraction. Complexes 1 and 2 crystallize in the monoclinic space group P21/c and triclinic space group P1̄, respectively. The silver(I) ions in both complexes 1 and 2 exhibit a distorted T-shaped AgN3 coordination geometry. 1 consists of individual molecules connected into chains by N-H···O hydrogen bonds. There are two crystallographically distinct dimers in the unit cell of 2 and in each dimer, the aepy ligands act as a bridge between two silver(I) centers, resulting in short argentophilic contacts [Ag1···Ag1 = 3.0199(4) Å and Ag2···Ag2 = 2.9894(4) Å ]. Symmetry equivalent dimers of 2 are connected by N-H···O hydrogen bonds into chains, which are further linked by aromatic π(py)···π(py) stacking interactions into sheets.

The structures of Au(4-C≡CC6H4XYC6H4-4′-NO2)(PPh3) (XY = (E )-CH=CH (1), (Z)-CH=CH (2), C≡C (3), N=CH (4)) have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses, refining by full-matrix least-squares analysis. For (1), crystals are triclinic, space group P-1, with a8·847(1), b 17·870(4), c 19·705(3) Å, α116·25(1), β 93·33(1), γ 92·64(2)˚, Z 4, 6747 unique reflections (703 parameters), converging at R 0·025 and Rw 0·029. For (2), crystals are monoclinic, space group P 21/a, with a 10·718(6), b 19·398(5), c14·469(3) Å, β 108·96(2)˚, Z 4, 3295 unique reflections (352 parameters), converging atR 0·040 and Rw 0·034. For (3), crystals are triclinic, space group P-1, with a 10·671(4), b 17·599(7), c 18·220(8) Å, α 116·31(3), β 105·00(4), γ 95·08(4)˚, Z 4, 4828 unique reflections (703 parameters), converging at R 0·043 and Rw 0·030. For (4), crystals are triclinic, space group P-1, with a 8·8314(6), b 17·834(2), c 20·001(2) Å, α 115·249(7), β 90·930(7), γ 94·082(7)˚, Z 4, 4724 unique reflections (703 parameters), converging at R 0·035 and Rw 0·034. Despite the [ligated metal donor]-bridge-[nitro acceptor] composition of these complexes, Au–C and C≡C distances are normal and consistent with minimal allenylidene contribution to the ground-state geometry. Within the 3σ confidence limits, the structural data do not provide evidence for π*-back-bonding in these complexes

Single crystal X-ray structure determinations of two solvated silver sulfonates have been obtained and these compounds have been shown to adopt infinite one-dimensional motifs. {AgOTs(MeCN)}[Formula: see text] (OTs = p-toluenesulfonate) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group, P21, a = 8.4278(5) Å, b = 5.7413(3) Å, c = 12.1057(7) Å, β = 109.24(1)°. {Ag(NDSA)(MeCN)2(H3O)(H2O)2}[Formula: see text] (NDSA = 1,5-naphthalenedisulfonate) crystallizes in the triclinic space group, P[Formula: see text], a = 8.3407(4) Å, b = 10.4374(5) Å, c = 12.3399(6) Å, α = 101.941(8)°, β = 109.24(1)°, γ = 102.190(8)°. Despite one compound containing a monosulfonate and the other a disulfonate, both complexes form infinite one-dimensional arrays.Key words: silver, sulfonates, coordination polymer.

AbstractNTO is an explosive of current interest. It has been evaluated as an insensitive component to replace RDX in the bomb fill, and as a major ingredient for the auto air bag system. The crystal structure of the β from of NTO has been determined by single-crystal X-ray methods. The unit cell is monoclinic, space group P21/c, with a = 9.326, b = 5.515, c = 9.107 Å, β = 100.77°. There are four molecules in the cell, density 1.878 g/cm3. Infinite extension of H-bonding in two-dimensional sheets occurs in the monoclinic form. Bond lengths and angles all have normal values.Efforts have been made to determine the crystal structure of α-NTO. However, a structure refined only to R = 17% was obtained, probably due to some kind of twinning about the crystal needle axis. The unit cell is triclinic, space group P1, with a = 5.12, b = 10.30, c = 17.9 Å, α = 106.7°, β= 97.7°, γ = 90.2°. There are eight molecules in the cell, density 1.92 g/cm3. Ribbons of NTO molecules formed by a relatively strong network of hydrogen bonds are observed. It was found that α-NTO is the stable, dominating form. A variety of techniques have been chosen to identify the two polymorphs.

The structures of three tetramethylammonium salts containing anions of formula [(μ-SePh)6(MSePh)4]2− (M = Zn and Cd) were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. The Zn salt crystallizes in different space groups depending upon the solvent combination used in the synthesis. Thus crystals of (Me4N)2[Zn4(SePh)10], 1, grown from a mixture of methanol, acetonitrile, and acetone are triclinic, space group [Formula: see text] with cell dimensions a = 13.214(2), b = 23.859(2), c = 13.072(1) Å, α = 91.134(8), β = 113.350(8), γ = 79.865(9)°, and Z = 2. In the absence of acetone, a solvated crystal (Me4N)2[Zn4(SePh)10]•CH3CN, 2, is formed, which belongs to the monoclinic space group P21/n with a = 14.248(1), b = 39.722(2), c = 13.408(1) Å, β = 97.132(5)°, and Z = 4. The Cd salt (Me4N)2[Cd4(SePh)10], 3, crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c, with a = 20.830(2), b = 14.282(1), c = 25.872(1) Å, β = 99.626(6)°, and Z = 4. These three salts are the first examples of homoleptic, tetranuclear selenolatometal(II) anions with (μ-Se)6M4 cages of adamantane-type stereochemistry. In each case the phenyl substituents of the bridging ligands adopt the configuration [aae, aae, aee, aee], which has the minimum number of two 1,3-axial–axial non-bonding substituent interactions. Keywords: selenolate complexes, synthesis, X-ray crystallography, isomerism, adamantane stereochemistry.

Donor-stabilized addition complexes of nickel(II) with disubstituted diphenyldithiophosphates, [{(ArO)2PS2}2NiL2] {Ar = 2,4-(CH3)2C6H3[(1), (5)], 2,5-(CH3)2C6H3[(2), (6)], 3,4-(CH3)2C6H3[(3), (7)] and 3,5-(CH3)2C6H3[(4), (8)];L= C5H5N [(1)–(4)] and C7H9N [(5)–(8)]}, were successfully isolated and characterized by elemental analysis, magnetic moment, IR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray analysis. Compound (4) crystallizes in the monoclinic space groupP21/nwhereas compounds (7) and (8) crystallize in the triclinic space group P\bar 1. The single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of (4), (7) and (8) reveals a six-coordinated octahedral geometry for the NiS4N2chromophore. Two diphenyldithiophosphate ions act as bidentate ligands with their S atoms coordinated to the Ni centre. Each of them forms a four-membered chelate ring in the equatorial plane. The N atoms from two donor ligands are axially coordinated to the Ni atom.

Abstract X-ray structure determinations have been performed on single crystals of trans-(Ph4P)2-[B6H4I2] (1) (triclinic, space group P1̄, a = 9.9680(12), b = 10.9690(11), c = 11.0470(14) Å,α = 88.167(9), β = 80.466(12), γ = 68.839(11)°, Z = 1), mer-(Ph4P)2[B6H3I3] · 2 CH2Cl2 (2)(triclinic, space group P1̄, a = 11.8694(11), b = 15.1699(13), c = 17.051(2) Å, α = 75.118(9), β = 71.953(10), γ = 69.331(8)°, Z = 2), trans-(Ph4P )2[B6H2I4] · 2 CH3CN (3) (monoclinic, space group P21/n, a = 14.9665(10), b = 7.6783(10), c = 23.385(3) Å, β = 95.78(9)°, Z = 2), and (CH2Py2)[B6HI5] (4) (orthorhombic, space group Pnma, a = 13.660(2), b = 11.8711(13), c = 13.839(2) Å, Z = 4). The B6 octahedra are compressed in the direction of the B-I bonds, resulting in shortened diagonal B ··· B distances with average values of the groups I-B ··· B-I = 2.37 and I-B ··· B-H = 2.43 Å as compared with H-B ··· B-H = 2.49 Å.

The crystal structure of Di-µ-hydroxy-bis [aquo-triamminecobalt (III)] nitrate-2-hydrate has been determined by x-ray diffraction using counter techniques. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2h5-P21/n with a=9.444 (2), b=9.684 (3), c=10.736 (3) Å, β=90.1 (2)°, Z= 2. A total of 1765 independent reflections was used in solving the structure, which was refined to a conventional R1-factor of 0.047. It was not possible to distinguish by x-ray methods between the oxygen and nitrogen atoms of the NH3- and H2O molecules in the complex cation, because of their similarity in point of electrostatical and spatial behaviour.
