Samples of all three of the expected bisphenols, 4,4′,5,5′-tetrachloro-2,2′-methylenebisphenol (1) and the 3,4,4′,5′-(2) and 3,3′,4,4′-tetrachloro (3) isomers, and of a minor by-product, 5,5′,6,6′-tetrachloro-8,8′-methylenebis(4H-benzo-1,3-dioxin) (4), have been isolated from the mixture formed by acid-catalyzed condensation of 3,4-dichlorophenol with one half of a molar equivalent of formaldehyde. In addition, the structures and solid state conformations of all four compounds, and of an ethanol solvate of 1, have been revealed by X-ray crystallographic studies. The three bisphenols (1, 2, 3) all crystallize in space group [Formula: see text], as centrosymmetric hydrogen-bonded dimers, while the solvate, 1•EtOH, although it also belongs to space group [Formula: see text], forms relatively open infinite bands of hydrogen-bonded molecules. Crystals of 4 belong to space group Fdd2 and the molecules have twofold crystallographic symmetry. Keywords: X-ray crystallography, bisphenols, tetrachloro-2,2′-methylenebisphenols, tetrachloro-8,8′-methylenebis(4H-benzo-1,3-dioxin).

The Cu(I) derivatives were characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and in two cases by X-ray crystallography. (Ph3P)2Cu[S2PMe2] (1) crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P212121 (No. 19) with cell parameters a = 9.782(2), b = 17.808(4), c = 20.216(4) Å, V = 3521(6) Å3 and Z = 4, and (Ph3P)2Cu[(OPPh2)2N] (4) in the triclinic space group P[Formula: see text] (No. 2) with cell parameters a = 9.8079(2), b = 12.9141(3), c = 22.5666(5) Å, α = 75.714(2), β = 79.465(2), γ = 68.2770(8)°, V = 2559.9(1) Å3 and Z = 2. In both cases the phosphorus ligands are bidentate, thus resulting in monomeric molecules that contain tetrahedral CuP2S2 and CuP2O2 cores. The molecular structures of two of the Cu(II) derivatives were also determined. Cu[(OPPh2)2N]2 (8) and Cu[(OPPh2)(SPPh2)N]2 (9) crystallize in the triclinic space group P[Formula: see text] (No. 2) with cell parameters a = 8.887(2), b = 10.739(2), c = 12.477(3) Å, α = 77.61(3), β = 76.15(5), γ = 79.46(3)°, V = 1118.3(4) Å3 and Z = 1 for 8, and a = 9.626(2), b = 14.151(3), c = 24.752(5) Å, α = 88.23(3), β = 79.93(3), γ = 89.77(3)°, V = 3181(1) Å3 and Z = 3 for 9. The molecule of Cu[(OPPh2)2N]2 (8) has a planar CuO4 core, while in Cu[(OPPh2)(SPPh2)N]2 (9) both planar and tetrahedral copper cores are observed in a ratio of 1:2.Key words: structure, copper, thiophosphinates, oxo- and thio-imidodiphosphinates

Reaction of [OsO4] with C7H7MgBr (C7H7 = 2-methylphenyl) followed by column chromatography afforded the reported osmium tetraaryl [Os(C7H7)4] along with the oxo-osmium(VI) ([OsO(C7H7)4]) (1) (13%) and the dioxo-osmium(VI) ([OsO2(C7H7)2]) (2) (25%) complexes. Treatment of [OsO4] with C8H9MgBr (C8H9 = 2,5-dimethylphenyl) gave a mixture of [Os(C8H9)4] (3) (34%) and [OsO(C8H9)4] (4) (4%) while that with C8H9OMgBr (C8H9O = 4-methoxy-2-methylphenyl) afforded [OsO(C8H9O)4] (5) in 20% yield. Oxidation of 3 with 3-chloroperoxybenzoic acid afforded 4 in good yield. The solid-state structures of 1 and 4 have been established by X-ray crystallography. Crystals of 1 are tetragonal with a = 13.080(1) and c = 6.6506(5) Å, V = 1137.9(1) Å3, Z = 2, and space group of P4/n; while those of 4 are tetragonal with a = 13.593(2) and c = 7.377(2) Å, V = 1363.0(5) Å3, Z = 4, and space group of P4/n. The geometry around osmium in both complexes is square pyramidal with the oxo ligand occupying apical position. The Os—O and Os—C distances in 1 are 1.652(2) and 2.084(1) Å, respectively, while those in 4 are 1.688(7) and 2.088(4) Å, respectively. The cyclic voltammograms of the monooxo aryl osmium(VI) compounds show reversible Os(VI/V) couple at around –1.4 V vs. ferrocene/ferrocenium couple.Key words: osmium(VI), oxo aryl complexes.

Cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II), and two cobalt(III) complexes of a new dianionic ligand, bqb, [H2bqb = N,N'-bis(2-quinolinecarboxamide)-1,2-benzene] have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, IR, and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The crystal and molecular structures of the [Ni(bqb)] (2) and [N(n-Bu)4][CoIII(bqb)(N3)2] (5) complexes were determined by X-ray crystallography. Complex 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with a distorted square-planar structure including two short Ni–N (1.848 Å) and two long Ni–N (1.958 Å) bonds. The structure consists of sheets formed in the plane parallel to the b axis and diagonal to vectors a and c by intermolecular hydrogen bonds. Complex 5 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2 with a distorted octahedral structure. The [N(n-Bu)4]+ ion is disordered at the C3A and C4A atoms of one Bu. The IR and 1H NMR spectra of the complexes are also discussed.Key words: N4-dianionic amido ligand (bqb), (bqb) complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Co(III), azide, cyanide, X-ray crystal structures.

The crystal and molecular structures of the title compounds, (C6H11)2PC(S)N(H)C6H5(1) and (C6H5)2PC(S)N(H)C6H5(2) have been determined by single-crystal three-dimensional X-ray diffraction techniques. Crystals of (1) are monoclinic, space group P21/c, with eight molecules in the unit cell of dimensions a 20.541(4), b 17.784(2), c 10.2564(9) � and β 94.54(1)�; (2) crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 with two molecules in the unit cell which has the dimensions a 9.242(2), b 9.994(3), c 10.373(3) �, α 68.56(2), β 71.21(2) and γ 86.00(2)�. Both structures were refined by a least-squares procedure, applying anisotropic thermal parameters to all non-hydrogen atoms, with the use of 3119 and 2971 statistically significant reflections for (1) and (2) respectively; final R 0.055 for (1) and R 0.061 (Rw 0.062) for (2). The N, C(l), S moieties of both (1) and (2) display features consistent with the delocalization of π-electrons. There are notable differences in some of the bond angles between (I) and (2) which have been attributed to conformational effects arising from variations in steric pressures; this may account for the observed differences in reactivity between the two compounds.

Crystal data, Mo Kα radiation: (1), space group P21/n, a = 8.854 (6), b = 9.992 (3), c = 32.04 (2) Å, β = 97.34 (3), Z = 4, R F = 0.055 for 2261 observed data; (2), space group P\overline 1, a = 6.269 (2), b = 8.118 (4), c = 14.562 (8) Å, α = 104.79 (4), β= 91.72 (4), γ = 101.30 (4)°, Z = 2, R F = 0.078 for 1543 observed data; (3), space group P21/n, a = 11.340 (2), b = 9.293 (6), c = 14.619 (2) Å, β = 102.41 (2)°, Z = 2, R F = 0.050 for 1856 observed data; (4), space group P2/n, a = 16.866 (4), b = 8.311  (1), c = 17.603 (2) Å, β = 104.94 (1)°, Z = 4, R F = 0.048 for 2785 observed data. In the crystal structure of (1) the tetra-n-butylammonium ions are sandwiched between puckered layers, which are constructed from thiourea-hydrogen oxalate ribbons. In the crystal structure of (2), zigzag O--H...O and C--H...O hydrogen-bonded hydrogen fumarate ribbons are linked by thiourea dimers to form a wide puckered ribbon and the crystal structure is built of a packing of these thiourea–anion composite ribbons and the cationic columns. In the layer-type crystal structure of (3) a series of thiourea–fumarate layers match the (002) planes and the (C2H5)4N+ cations occupy the intervening space. In the crystal structure of (4) the thiourea, hydrogen fumarate ions and water molecules are connected by hydrogen bonds to form wide puckered ribbons, which are crosslinked to generate a three-dimensional host framework containing open channels aligned parallel to the a axis, with the tetra-n-propylammonium cations accommodated in a single column within each channel.

The η1-acac ligand is bound through the gamma-carbon atom for M = Ru, Os, arene = C6H6; M = Os, arene = 1,2-C6H4Me2, 1,2,3-C6H3Me3 and through a keto-oxygen atom for M = Ru, Os, arene = 1,3,5-C6H3Me3, C6Me6, the difference being attributed to a combination of steric and electronic effects. Cationic ruthenium(II) derivatives [Ru(L)(O,O'-acac)(η6-arene]+ (arene = C6H6, 1,3,5-C6H3Me3, C6Me6; L = DMSO, MeCN, py, PPh3) and [Ru(CO)(O,O'-acac)(η6-arene]+ (arene = 1,3,5-C6H3Me3,C6Me6), and neutral osmium(II) η1-acetato derivatives [Os(η1-OAc)(O,O'-acac)(η6-arene)] (arene = C6H6, 1,2-C6H4Me2, 1,2,3-C6H3Me3, 1,3,5-C6H3Me3, C6Me6) are also described. The molecular structures of the following complexes have been determined by X-ray crystallography: [Os(O,O'-acac)(η1-C-acac)(η6-1,2-C6H4Me2)], triclinic, space group P[Formula: see text] (No. 2), a = 9.922(2), b = 9.974(2), and c = 11.001(2) Å, α = 68.33(1), β = 64.18(1), and γ = 62.38(1)°, V = 849.0(3) Å3, Z = 2; [Os(O,O'-acac)(η1-O-acac)(η6-1,3,5-C6H3Me3)], monoclinic, space group C2/c (No. 15), a = 16.032(4), b = 11.989(3), and c = 21.562(7) Å, β= 108.91(2)°, V = 3921(2) Å, Z = 8; [Os(η1-OAc)(O,O'-acac)(η6-C6H6)], triclinic, space group P[Formula: see text] (No. 2), a = 8.368(4), b = 8.402(4), and c = 11.008(4) Å, α = 71.68(3), β = 69.35(3), and γ = 69.77(3)°, V = 663.0(6) Å3, Z = 2.Key words: arene-ruthenium, arene-osmium, acetylacetone, crystal structures.

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.

The molecular structures of exo-7-methylbicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-3-one, 3, and the endo-7-methyl isomer, 4, have been determined using X-ray-diffraction techniques. Compound 3 crystallizes in the space group [Formula: see text] with a = 15.115(1), c = 7.677(2) Å, and Z = 8 while 4 crystallizes in the space group P21 with a = 6.446(1), b = 7.831(1), c = 8.414(2) Å, β = 94.42(2)°, and Z = 2. The structures were solved by direct methods and refined to final agreement factors of R = 0.041 and R = 0.034 for 3 and 4 respectively. Compound 3 exists in a chair–chair conformation and there is no significant flattening of the chair rings. However, in 4, the non-ketone ring is forced into a boat conformation. These results are significant in interpreting what conformations may be present in the related sp2-hybridized carbocations.

AbstractTreatment of [(η6-p-cymene)RuCl2]2 with one equivalent of chlorodiphenylphosphine in tetrahydrofuran at reflux afforded a neutral complex [(η6-p-cymene)RuCl2(κ1-P-PPh2OH)] (1). Similarly, the reaction of [Ru(bpy)2Cl2·2H2O] (bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine) and chlorodiphenylphosphine in methanol gave a cationic complex [Ru(bpy)2Cl(κ1-P-PPh2OCH3)](PF6) (2), while treatment of [RuCl2(PPh3)3] with [2-(C5H4N)CH=N(CH2)2N(CH3)2] (L1) in tetrahydrofuran at room temperature afforded a ruthenium(II) complex [Ru(PPh3)Cl2(κ3-N,N,N-L1)] (3). Interaction of the chloro-bridged complex [Ru(CO)2Cl2]n with one equivalent of [Ph2P(o-C6H4)CH=N(CH2)2N(CH3)2] (L2) led to the isolation of [Ru(CO)Cl2(κ3-P,N,N-L2)] (4). The molecular structures of the ruthenium(II) complexes 1–4 have been determined by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. The properties of the ruthenium(II) complex 4 as a hydrogenation catalyst for acetophenone were also tested.
