The complexes CuL2(CF3SO3) where L is pyrazine and 2,5-dimethylpyrazine have been prepared by the reaction of copper(I) triflate with the neutral ligand in methanol. Single crystal X-ray diffraction studies on the 2,5-Me2pyz complex are reported. Crystals of the compound are triclinic, a = 9.424(4), b = 12.103(4), c = 9.113(4) Å, α = 110.97(3), β = 117.20(3), γ = 80.26(3)°, Z = 2, space group [Formula: see text]. The structure was solved by heavy atom methods and was refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R = 0.033 and Rw = 0.039 for 3326 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(1). The structure is similar to that of the pyz analogue involving chains of copper ions linked by bridging 2,5-Me2pyz ligands and monodenate triflate and terminal 2,5-Me2pyz ligands completing a distorted tetrahedral CuN3O chromophore. Mono-pyrazine and -2,5-dimethylpyrazine complexes of the type CuL(CF3SO3) were obtained by thermolysis of the corresponding bis-ligand complexes. These compounds are assigned a polymeric structure involving bridging neutral ligands and monodenate triflate groups on the basis of infrared spectroscopy studies. Electronic spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry studies are also reported. Keywords: pyrazine and 2,5-dimethylpyrazine complexes, copper(I) triflate, crystal structure.

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.

The crystal and molecular structure of the title compound has been examined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystals are monoclinic with a = 28.045(10), b = 8.766(3), c = 12.376(5) Å, β = 91.14(3)°. The space group is C2/c and there are eight molecules per unit cell. A total of 5053 independent reflections, of which 2860 were observed, were examined on a Syntex [Formula: see text] diffractometer. The structure was refined by full matrix least squares to an R2 value of 0.0449. The ligands form a very rough octahedron around the rhenium atom with Re—Cl(1), 2.441(3); Re—Cl(2), 2.366(3), Re—O(1), 1.684(7); Re—O(2), 1.896(6); Re—N(1), 2.144(7); Re—N(2), 2.132(7) Å. The pyridine rings are a dominant factor in determining the details of the molecular structure.

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 and molecular structure of dithiocyanato(triphenylarsine)mercury(II) has been determined from X-ray diffraction data. The crystals are monoclinic, space group P21/c, with a = 10.290(7), b = 21.199(23), c = 10.719(7) Å, β = 112.00(2)°, and Z = 4. The structure has been solved by the heavy-atom method and refined by block-diagonal least-squares calculations. The agreement factor R obtained for 2607 'observed' reflections is 0.030. The crystal consists of single molecules. The 'characteristic' coordination number of mercury is three, with two sulfur and one arsenic atoms at the apexes of a triangle. The nitrogen atoms of the thiocyanate groups are at 2.67 and 2.74 Å from the adjoining mercury atoms and therefore link the different molecules together.

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.

The synthesis of the β and γ forms of M(Ph2PO2)2 where M = Co and Mn are described and the compounds are characterized by infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray powder diffraction, and low-temperature (2–80 K) magnetic susceptibility studies. Single crystal X-ray diffraction studies are reported on the γ forms. Crystals of the γ forms of poly-bis(μ-diphenylphosphinato)cobalt(II) and poly-bis(μ-diphenylphosphinato)manganese(II) are isomorphous, crystallizing with 4 formula units per unit-cell in the monoclinic space group P21/c. Lattice constants are a = 8.080(2), 8.161(1), b = 23.550(6), 23.751(1), c = 11.726(3), 11.6946(6) Ǻ, and β = 92.88(2), 93.026(8)° for the Co and Mn derivatives respectively. The structures were solved by heavy atom methods and were refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R = 0.039 and 0.045 for 4041 and 2878 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I), respectively. Both crystal structures consist of double phosphinate-bridged chain polymers containing tetrahedrally coordinated metal atoms: Co—O = 1.950(2)–1.963(2) Ǻ, O—Co—O = 104.81(8)–117.77(9)°, Mn—O = 2.016(3)–2.033(3) Ǻ, O—Mn—O = 103.2(1)–114.7(1)°. All four compounds exhibit antiferromagnetic coupling and magnetic susceptibilities have been analyzed according to two Heisenberg models for linear chains of metal ions with S = 3/2 for cobalt and S = 5/2 for manganese. The Weng model (with values for the Wagner and Friedberg model in parentheses) gives –J = 0.25 (0.26) cm−1 and 0.55 (0.60) cm−1 for the β and γ forms, respectively, of Co(Ph2PO2)2, and 0.34 (0.36) cm−1 and 0.17 (0.17) cm−1 for the β and γ forms, respectively, of Mn(Ph2PO2)2. Key words: crystal structure, diphenylphosphinates of cobalt(II) and manganese(II), magnetic properties.

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.

A new dioxouranium(VI) nitrate complex with N,N′-tetraethyl-N″-trichloracetylphosphortriamide (HL = CCl3C(O)N(H)P(O)(NEt2)2) of composition UO2 (HL)2(NO3)2 (1) has been synthesised. The IR spectroscopic data reveal that the ambidentate ligand is coordinated to the metal center in a monodentate manner via the phosphoryl oxygen atom. The crystal and molecular structure of 1 has been determined from X-ray diffraction data (triclinic, space group P1̄ with a = 9.225(2), b = 10.360(2), c = 12.249(2) Å, α = 100.02 (1), β = 103.81(1), γ = 108.80 (1)°, Z = 1; R = 0.037 for 4092 unique reflections. The structure is made up of centrosymmetric molecules in which the neutral ligands HL are monocoordinated. Phosphoryl and carbonyl groups of the HL moieties are in the trans positions to each other. The axial vertices of the distorted hexagonal bipyramid of uranium are occupied by two oxo ligands [U-O 1.753(5) Å] while six oxygen atoms of phosphoryl and nitrate groups lie in the equatorial plane [U-O 2.347(5)-2.547(6)Å],

The crystal and molecular structure of bis ( tricyclohexylphosphine )cadmium(II) nitrate as its dichloromethane solvate, Cd [P(c-C6H11)3]2(NO3)2.CH2Cl2, has been determined by single- crystal, three-dimensional X-ray diffraction methods. The crystals of the cadmium(II) complex are monoclinic with space group C2/c, a 20.880(6), b 12.775(3), c 17.075(5) Ǻ and β 106.38(2)°, Z 4. The structure was solved by normal Fourier methods and refined by a full-matrix least-squares procedure. The refinement used the 2169 statistically independent reflections for which I ≥ 2σ(I) converged with R and Rw of 0.065 and 0.067 respectively. The crystals consist of discrete Cd [P(c-C6H11)3]2(NO3)2 molecules and CH2Cl2 in the ratio 1 : 1. There is a distorted tetrahedral environment around the cadmium atom formed from the coordination of the two phosphines and two nitrates with each nitrate essentially occupying one stereochemical position. The two markedly different Cd -O bond lengths of 2.405(9) and 2.575(8) Ǻ show gross asymmetry in the coordination of the nitrate.
