Abstract The cationic thorium(IV) complexes [Th{Ph2P(O)CH2CH2P(O)Ph2}2(NO3)3]NO3 and [Th{Ph2P(O)NP(O)Ph2}3(dmso)2]NO3 have been synthesized by reactions of Th(NO3)4 · 5H2O with bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane dioxide, Ph2P(O)CH2CH2P(O)Ph2 (L1), or ammonium bis(diphenylphosphoryl)amide, (NH4)[Ph2P(O)NP(O)Ph2] (NH4L2), and subsequent recrystallization from dimethyl sulfoxide. The products have been studied spectroscopically and by X-ray crystallography. The thorium atom is ten-co-ordinate in the [Th(L1)2(NO3)3]+ cation with a coordination sphere which does not match one of the idealized polyhedra for ten-coordination. Th-O bonds have been found in the range between 2.342(3) (phosphine oxide) and 2.599(4) A (nitrate). An eight-coordinate thorium atom is found in the [Th(L2)3(dmso)2]+ cation. The almost ideal square-antiprismatic environment of the metal is occupied by oxygen atoms with Th-0 bond lengths between 2.363(6) and 2.392(11) Å

Two dimeric lanthanoid (III) complexes, [Ln2( bpy )2( pybet )4(H2O)4] ( bpy )3(ClO4)6.H2O ( bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine, pybet = pyridinioacetate, and Ln Eu and Tb), have been prepared and characterized by X-ray crystallography. The complexes are isostructural, each comprising a quadruply carboxylato -bridged, centrosymmetrical dimeric cation, six perchlorate anions, three uncoordinated bpy molecules and a lattice water molecule. Each Ln ion is surrounded in a distorted square-antiprismatic environment by four carboxylato oxygen atoms, two nitrogen atoms of the bidentate bpy ligand and two aqua ligands . The Ln-O bond lengths range from 2.33 to 2.44 Ǻ, and Ln-N bond lengths from 2.55 to 2.64 Ǻ. The uncoordinated bpy molecules are linked to the aqua ligands by hydrogen bonds.

Post-synthetic modification of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) facilitates a strategic transformation of potentially inert frameworks into functionalized materials, tailoring them for specific applications. In particular, the post-synthetic incorporation of transition-metal complexes within MOFs, a process known as ‘metalation’, is a particularly promising avenue towards functionalizing MOFs. Herein, we describe the post-synthetic metalation of a microporous MOF with various transition-metal nitrates. The parent framework, 1 , contains free-nitrogen donor chelation sites, which readily coordinate metal complexes in a single-crystal to single-crystal transformation which, remarkably, can be readily monitored by X-ray crystallography. The presence of an open void surrounding the chelation site in 1 prompted us to investigate the effect of the MOF pore environment on included metal complexes, particularly examining whether void space would induce changes in the coordination sphere of chelated complexes reminiscent of those found in the solution state. To test this hypothesis, we systematically metalated 1 with first-row transition-metal nitrates and elucidated the coordination environment of the respective transition-metal complexes using X-ray crystallography. Comparison of the coordination sphere parameters of coordinated transition-metal complexes in 1 against equivalent solid- and solution-state species suggests that the void space in 1 does not markedly influence the coordination sphere of chelated species but we show notably different post-synthetic metalation outcomes when different solvents are used. This article is part of the themed issue ‘Coordination polymers and metal–organic frameworks: materials by design’.

The effects of solvents on the structural stability of cross-linked lysozyme crystals were investigated by an immersion test using alkaline (0.1 M ammonia [NH3] and 0.1 M sodium hydroxide [NaOH]), acidic (0.1 M acetic acid [CH3COOH] and 0.1 M hydrochloric acid [HCl]) and organic (50% [v/v] and undiluted ethanol, acetone, 2-propanol and dimethyl sulfoxide [DMSO]) solvents. The morphology and lattice constants were monitored by optical microscopy and X-ray crystallography. The cross-linked crystals exhibited good stability against NH3, CH3COOH, HCl, ethanol, acetone and 2-propanol. However, samples preserved in DMSO and NaOH were severely degraded.

The tetranuclear complex Mo4O8((CH3)2POS)4 has been synthetized by reacting MOCl5 with Na((CH3)2POS) in CHCl3/CCl4 solutions. The structures of two crystalline modifications (I and II), containing different amounts of solvent, have been determined by X-ray crystallography. In both, four molybdenum and four oxygen atoms are situated at the corners of a highly distorted cube. Each Mo atom has a terminal oxo group. The Mo atoms form two MO2 pairs through Mo-Mo bonds. The bidentate (CH3)POS- ligands coordinate to two Mo atoms of different pairs. The sulfur atoms of the ligands are partially replaced by oxygen atoms.

The crystal structure of the title compound, [Sn(S2COEt)2(C9H6NO)2], has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction at 298 K and refined by least squares to a residual of 0.049 for 1771 ?observed? reflections. Crystals are monoclinic, P21/n, a 12.21(1), b 24.33(1), c 9.159(7) Ǻ, β 102.12(6)°, Z 4. The environment of the tin atom is six- coordinate: the two coordinating sulfur atoms of the monodentate xanthate ligands lie cis in the coordination sphere [Sn-S, 2.484(4), 2.510(4) Ǻ], and one in turn trans to the two oxine nitrogen atoms [Sn- N, 2.260(8), 2.237(10) Ǻ]. The remaining positions, trans to each other, are occupied by the oxine oxygen atoms [Sn-O, 2.047(7), 2.065(8) Ǻ]. O-Sn-O is 157.0(3)°. The overall point symmetry of the molecule is a good approximation to 2.

Abstract X-ray structures of five bis(N - R-salicylaldiminato)zinc(II) complexes with R = ethyl, n-propyl, i-propyl, n-butyl and 4-thia-n-hexyl were determined. The N2O2 coordination geometry is in all cases quasi-tetrahedral with the dihedral angle between the planes of the two chelate rings ranging from 84 to 89°. Bond lengths and angles in the coordination sphere are not affected by the nature of R or by a methoxy substituent in 4-position of the salicylaldimine. The potentially tridentate ONS ligand N(4-thia-n-hexyl)salicylaldimine is also coordinated only in a bidentate NO fashion.

X-ray analyses of monoclinic crystals of the bispyridine and 1,10-phenanthroline adducts of the monothioacetylacetonate complex bis(ethyl 3-mercaptobut-2-enoato)nickel(n), Ni(eosm)2,* have defined their structures. Crystals of the bispyridine adduct Ni(eosm)2,py2, C22H28N2NiO4S2, belong to the space group P21/c with a 8.865(6), b 15.758(4), c 9.136(3)Ǻ, β 109.18(4)°, Z 2. Crystals of the 1,10-phenanthroline adduct Ni(eosm)2,phen, C24H26N2NiO4S2, belong to the space group P21c with a 12.451(2), b 16.949(1), c 15 5921(2) Ǻ, β 130.97(1)°, Z 4. The structures were refined with diffractometer data measured with Cu Ka radiation to R 0.047 (1962 terms) for the bispyridine adduct and R 0.061 (3115 terms) for the phenanthroline adduct. The geometry about the nickel in each complex is distorted octahedral. The molecule of the bispyridine adduct has exact rn symmetry with the two sulfur atoms cis-equatorial and the nitrogen atoms axial. In the phenan- throline adduct, pairs of sulfur, nitrogen and oxygen atoms are in cis configurations. In the bis-pyridine adduct, the Ni-N bond lengths, 2.153(3) and 2.182(4) Ǻ, are significantly longer than those in other bispyridine adducts of nickel(II) species. It is suggested that the long Ni-N distances reflect the relative instability of the bispyridine adduct, and thermodynamic data are presented to support this.

This paper describes the synthesis of two beta-phosphorylamide ligands and their coordination chemistry with the Ln ions Tb3+, Eu3+, and Sm3+. Both the ligands and Ln complexes were characterized by IR, NMR, MS, and X-ray crystallography. The luminescence properties of the Tb3+ and Eu3+ complexes were also characterized, including the acquisition of lifetime decay curves. In the solid state, the Tb3+ and Sm3+ ligand complexes were found to have a 2:2 stoichiometry when analyzed by X-ray diffraction. In these structures, the Ln ion was bound by both oxygen atoms of each beta-phosphorylamide moiety of the ligands. The Tb3+ and Eu3+ complexes were modestly emissive as solutions in acetonitrile, with lifetime values that fell within typical ranges.

The solid-state conformation of the fluorochrome sodium 4,4′-[carbonylbis(benzene-4,1-diyl)bis(imino)]-bisbenzenesulfonate has been defined by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. Monoclinic crystals belong to the space group C 2/c with a 11·732(1), b 6·185(1), c 37·179(3) Å, β 94·40(1)° and Z 8. The structure was refined to a final R0·042 for all 2271 unique terms. In the crystal six oxygen atoms form an octahedral grouping around the sodium ion and these octahedra are linked into layers sandwiched between the layers of organic anions which adopt an extended conformation. The n.m.r. spectra indicate that in solution the fluorochrome is flexible and averages to an extended structure that maintains symmetry about its longitudinal and carbonyl axes. Chemical shifts have been measured in water, deuterium oxide and (D6)dimethyl sulfoxide
