Abstract In the course of work on the anion condensation of Cd and Zn halides, the crystal structures and 79,81 Br NQR spectra of 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-propanediammonium tetrabromocadmate(II) monohydrate (1) and dimethylammonium tetrabromozincate(II) (2), and 79-81 Br NQR spectra of dimethyl-ammonium tetrabromocadmate(II) (3) have been studied. An isolated [CdBr4]2- ion of the salt [H3NCH2C(CH3)2CH2NH3 ]CdBr4 • H2O (1) is formed, with polar orthorhombic space group Pbc21, Z = 4, a = 645.5(3), b = 1628.3(8), c -1389.5(6) pm. [(CH3)2 NH2 ]2ZnBr4 (2) has also an isolated anion lattice, with monoclinic space group, P21 /c, Z = 4, a = 870.6(3), b = 1195.6(4), c = 1628.9(5) pm, β = 121.84(1)°. The 81 Br NQR spectrum of (1) is a quartet (ν in MHz, T = 77 K/ 303 K): ν1 = 68.403/64.278; ν2 = 65.296/62.663; ν3 = 56.525/54.660; V4 = 43.211/45.422. The 81 Br NQR spectrum of (2) is a quartet too (ν in MHz, T= 77 K/300 K): ν1 = 66.848/64.784; ν2= 63.152/ 61.883; ν3 = 57.498/55.890; ν4 = 49.416/50.224. The 81 Br NQR spectrum of [(CH3)2NH2 ]2CdBr4 (3) is also a quartet (ν in MHz, T =77 K/310 K): ν1 = 68.606/67.272; ν2 = 65.806/63.296; ν3 = 58.096/ 57.369; ν4 = 55.757/53.393. The change of NQR frequencies with temperature is smooth for all three compounds. One of the 81 Br NQR lines in both (1) and (2) increases slightly in frequency with increasing T. In the compound (1), the H2O coordinates to NH3+ groups and to bromines forming a distorted tetrahedron (Br...)2 ...H2O... (... HN)2 , the six angles lying between 69° and 131°. The relations between the bromine NQR and the crystal structures are discussed for the title compounds.

To compare the structural properties of oxalamide and thiooxalamide groups in the formation of hydrogen bonds suitable for supramolecular assemblies a series of retropeptides was studied. Some of them, having oxalamide bridges, are gelators of organic solvents and water. However, retropeptides with oxygen replaced by the sp 2 sulfur have not exhibited such properties. The crystal structures of the two title compounds are homostructural, i.e. they have similar packing arrangements. The monothio compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P212121 with two molecules in the asymmetric unit arranged in a hydrogen-bond network with an approximate 41 axis along the crystallographic b axis. However, the dithio and dioxo analogues crystallize in the tetragonal space group P41 with similar packing patterns and hydrogen-bonding systems arranged in agreement with a crystallographic 41 axis. Thus, these two analogues are isostructural having closely related hydrogen-bonding patterns in spite of the different size and polarity of oxygen and sulfur which serve as the proton acceptors.

The preparation and purification of [Pt( hpip )Cl2] and [Pd( hpip )Cl2] ( hpip = homopiperazine = 1,4-diazacycloheptane) are described. Crystal structures of [Pt( hpip )Cl2] and [Pd( hpip )Cl2] have been determined by X-ray diffraction methods and refined to R values of 0.023 (932 F) and 0.023 (948 F). The crystals of [Pt( hpip )Cl2] are orthorhombic, space group Pbcm , a 7.7019(8), b 9.8080(12), c 12.1944(14) Ǻ, and those of [Pd( hpip )Cl2] are monoclinic, space group P21/m, a 6.1001(9), b 11.527(2), c 6.458(I) Ǻ, β 106.30(2)°. The seven- membered rings of the ligands in both complexes adopt boat-like conformations in which the five- membered chelate ring has an eclipsed N-C-C-N group and the six- membered chelate ring adopts a chair conformation. Molecular mechanics methods were used to investigate whether this conformation was a crystallographic artefact but it was found to be real. An alternative conformation in which the six-membered chelate ring adopts a skew-boat conformation was also investigated. It was found to be less stable than the conformation observed in the crystal structures, but to a degree that depends on whether non-bonded interactions involving the metal atom were included or not.

The reactions of N-substituted dithiocarbamic acid esters and nickel acetate yield, by partial degradation of the esters, the polynuclear nickel thiolato complexes cyclo-[(μ-SMe)2Ni]6, 1 and [(μ-SMe)2(Ni(MeNHCS2))2, 2. Their crystal structures have been determined. The Ni coordination spheres are comprised of four sulfur atoms in a planar arrangement. 1 is a second, highly symmetrical modification of the already known cyclic hexamer Ni6(SMe)12. In 2 two Ni(PhNHCS2) moieties are bridged to dimers by thiolato groups. Two of these dimers are connected to a tetramer by weak axial Ni-S interactions. Crystal data for 1: monoclinic, space group P21/n, a = 986.1(2), b = 1308.1(3), c = 1228.6(2) pm, β = 96.07(3)°, Z = 2, R = 0.072, Rw = 0.062, 3797 reflections. 2: orthorhombic, space group Pnma, a = 1790.0(4), b = 1806.7(4), c = 934.4(2) pm. Z = 4, R = 0.061, Rw = 0.051, 2079 reflections

PPh3Au(tolN5tol) is obtained by the reaction of PPh3Au+ClO4- with Tl(tolN5tol). It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with the lattice parameters a = 1548.8(5), b = 1070.7(2), c = 1779.1(3) pm, β = 90.33(2)°, Z = 4. In the monomeric complex the gold atom is nearly linearcoordinated by the phosphorus atom of the PPh3 group and nitrogen atom N3 of the pentaazadienido ligand ( N3 - Au - P 178.4°). tolNN(NCH3)NNtol crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pccn with the lattice constants a = 2426.7(9), b = 469.3(2), c = 1195.3(4) pm. The unit cell contains four molecules, located on twofold axes. Due to the isolobality of the CH3 and the PPh3Au group, the two structures are closely related. Both contain the typical planar zig-zag chain of five nitrogen atoms with located double bonds N1-N2 and N4 - N5 (from 119.8 to 126.6 pm) and shortened single bonds N2 - N3 and N3 - N4 (132.7 to 140.0 pm).

Abstract The 79Br and 127I NQR spectra were investigated for 1,2-diammoniumethane dibromide, -diiodide, 1,3-diammoniumpropane dibromide, -diiodide, piperazinium dibromide monohydrate, and piperazinium monoiodide in the temperature range 77 ≦ T/K ≦ 420. Phase transitions could be observed for the three iodides. The temperatures for the phase transitions are: 400 K and 404 K for 1,2-diammoniumethane diiodide, 366 K for 1,3-diammoniumpropane diiodide, and 196 K for piperazinium monoiodide.The crystal structures were determined for the piperazinium compounds. Piperazinium dibromide monohydrate crystallizes monoclinic, space group C2/c, with a= 1148.7 pm, 0 = 590.5 pm, c= 1501.6pm, β = 118.18°, and Z = 4. For piperazinium monoiodide the orthorhombic space group Pmn 21 was found with a = 958.1 pm, b = 776.9 pm, c = 989.3 pm, Z = 4. Hydrogen bonds N - H ... X with X = Br, I were compared with literature data.

Four novel norditerpenoids were isolated from a new encrusting sponge, conveniently labelled Aplysilla pallida. The structures of aplypallidenone (1), aplypallidoxone (2), aplypallidione (3) and aplypallidioxone (4) were elucidated by spectroscopic studies and the crystal structures of aplypallidenone and aplypallidoxone have been determined by X-ray diffraction methods. The structure of (1) was refined to a residual of 0·040 for 1665 independent observed reflections and the structure of (2) was refined to a residual of 0·031 for 1699 independent observed reflections. The crystals of (1) are orthorhombic, space group P212121, a 7·728(2), b 10·838(4), c 24·880(5) Å, Z 4. Those of (2) are monoclinic, space group C 2, a 23·927(7), b 6·674(2), c 14·033(3) Å, Z 4.

The crystal structures of three similar guaninium salts, guaninium monohydrogenphosphite monohydrate, C5H6N5O+·H2O3P−·H2O, guaninium monohydrogenphosphite dihydrate, C5H6N5O+·H2O3P−·2H2O, and guaninium dihydrogenmonophosphate monohydrate, C5H6N5O+·H2O4P−·H2O, are described and compared. The crystal structures have been determined from accurate single-crystal X-ray data sets collected at 100 (2) K. The two phosphite salts are monoclinic, space group P21/c, with different packing and the monophosphate salt is also monoclinic, space group P21/n. An investigation of the hydrogen-bond network in these guaninium salts reveals the existence of two ketoamine tautomers, the N9H form and an N7H form.

The crystal structure of barbituric acid dihydrate (C4H4N2O3·2H2O) has twice been reported as orthorhombic, space group Pnma, with all atoms (except for CH2 H atoms) lying on the mirror plane [Al-Karaghouli et al. (1977). Acta Cryst. B33, 1655–1660; Jeffrey et al. (1961). Acta Cryst. 14, 881–887]. The present study has found that at low temperatures, below 200 K, the crystal structure is no longer orthorhombic but is non-merohedrally twinned monoclinic, space group P21/n. This phase is stable down to 100 K. Above 220 K the crystal structure is orthorhombic, and between 200 and 220 K the structure undergoes a phase change, with the monoclinic-to-orthorhombic phase transition itself taking place at around 216–217 K. The size of the β angle in the monoclinic structure is temperature dependent; at 100 K β is around 94° and it decreases in magnitude towards 90° as the temperature increases. Although the hydrogen-bonding motifs are the same for both crystal systems, there are significant differences in the crystal packing, in particular the out-of-plane displacement of the two water molecules and the sp 3-hybridized C atom of barbituric acid.

The crystal structure of 2,5-[(S2N2C)OC4H2(CN2S2)] is orthorhombic, space group Pna21, and consists of interleaved arrays of dimers, for which the mean interannular [Formula: see text] contact is 3.137 Å. The crystal structure of the monofunctional radical 2,5-[(S2N2C)OC4H2(CN)] is monoclinic, space group P21/n, and consists of a ribbon-like network of dimers (mean interannular [Formula: see text] interconnected by close head-to-tail [Formula: see text] contacts. The dimer units form stacks parallel to z, with a mean interdimer [Formula: see text] separation of 3.956 Å. The similarities and differences between these two crystal structures and those of related benzene-substituted systems are discussed. Keywords: dithiadiazolyl radicals, furan-based diradicals, cyanofuran-based radicals, radical dimers, crystal structures.

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.
