AbstractThe reaction of the diimine ligand 1,2-bis(1,3-diisopropyl-4,5-dimethylimidazolin-2-imino)ethane (BLiPr) with tetrameric [Cp*RuCl]4 in a 1 : 0.75 ratio afforded the complex salt [1][2] containing the 16-electron half-sandwich cation [Cp*Ru(BLiPr)]+ (1) and the dinuclear anion [Cp*Ru(μ- Cl)3RuCp*]− (2). The X-ray crystal structures of [1][2]·31/2THF (monoclinic, space group P21/n, Z = 4) and of [1][2]·THF (monoclinic, space group C2/m, Z = 4) are reported, allowing the structural characterization of the unprecedented anion 2, in which two [(η5-C5Me5)Ru(II)] moieties are bridged by three μ2-chlorine atoms.

The mononuclear adducts chloro - and bromo-pyridinebis (triphenylphosphine)silver have been synthesized and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The two complexes are isomorphous, monoclinic, space group P21 or P21/m, a ≈ 9.8, b ≈ 20.0, c ≈ 9.1 � , β ≈ 97.5�, Z 2; in space group P21/m, they were refined to residuals of 0.038, 0.036 for 2392, 2157 'observed' reflections respectively. No comparable iodide adduct has been isolated. In both structures the silver atom is four-coordinate; Ag-Cl,Br are 2.511(2), 2.629(1) �; Ag-P, 2.472(1), 2.476(1) �, and Ag-N, 2.585(5), 2.570(5) � respectively, the Ag-N distance being longer than Ag-P, indicating very weak coordination of the pyridine.

The new phenanthroline ligand 2-(p-methoxyphenyl)-9-(5′-methylpyridin-2′-yl)-1,10-phenanthroline L has been synthesized and shown to form four-coordinate CuI(L)2 (1) and six-coordinate CuII(L)2 (2) complexes. Their structures have been determined by X-ray crystallography: (1) C50H38CuN6O2.BF4, triclinic, space group P -1, a12·924(3), b 14·567(4), c 12·649(3) Å , α 105·57(2), β 107·68(2), γ 104·00(2)°; (2) C50H38CuN6O2.2PF6, monoclinic, space group P 21/c, a 17·701(5), b 19·285(5), c 14·93(4) Å, β 98·20(2)°. In solution, cyclic voltammetry measurements indicate for the copper(I) and copper(II) complexes a very fast rearrangement of the pyridine substituent with the change of the oxidation state. Surprisingly, the X-ray data show two different coordination modes for the ligand around the copper(I) ion, the 1,10-phenanthroline nucleus being either mono- or bi-dentate. In solution, since the 1H n.m.r. spectra obtained even at several temperatures display only one set of signals, it is proposed that a fast equilibrium takes place between two coordination modes of the phenanthroline

The reaction of SO2 and W(CO)3(S2CNR2)2 in dichloromethane solution under dinitrogen gives the title complex along with WS(S2)(S2CNR2)2 and Syn-W2O2(�-S)2(S2CNR2)2 (R = Me, Et, Pri , C6H5CH2; NR2 = pyrrolidinyl ). X-ray structural analysis of WO(S2)(S2CNEt2)2 reveals a seven-coordinate tungsten complex with a terminal oxo group and a dihapto - disulfido ligand in a mutually triangular arrangement. Crystals are monoclinic space group P21 1 n, with a 9.379(2), b 22.276(7), c 9.408(2), β 106.86(1)�, U 188l.1(7) �33 and Z 4.2758 independent data were refined to a weighted agreement factor 0.036.

The crystal structures of the chiolite-related room temperature phases α-Na5M3F14 (MIII=Cr,Fe,Ga) are determined. For all of them, the space group is P21/n, Z=2; a=10.5096(3) Å, b=7.2253(2) Å, c=7.2713(2) Å, β=90.6753(7)° (M=Cr); a=10.4342(7) Å, b=7.3418(6) Å, c=7.4023(6) Å, β=90.799(5)° (M=Fe), and a=10.4052(1) Å, b=7.2251(1) Å, c=7.2689(1), β=90.6640(4)° (M=Ga). Rietveld refinements produce final RF factors 0.036, 0.033, and 0.035, and RWP factors, 0.125, 0.116, and 0.096, for MIII=Cr, Fe, and Ga, respectively. The MF6 polyhedra in the defective isolated perovskite-like layers deviate very few from perfect octahedra. Subtle octahedra tiltings lead to the symmetry decrease from the P4/mnc space group adopted by the Na5Al3F14 chiolite aristotype to the P21/n space group adopted by the title series. Facile twinning precluded till now the precise characterization of these compounds.

Cathinones belong to a group of compounds of great interest in the new psychoactive substances (NPS) market. Constant changes to the chemical structure made by the producers of these compounds require a quick reaction from analytical laboratories in ascertaining their characteristics. In this article, three cathinone derivatives were characterized by X-ray crystallography. The investigated compounds were confirmed as: 1-[1-(4-methylphenyl)-1-oxohexan-2-yl]pyrrolidin-1-ium chloride (1, C17H26NO+·Cl−, the hydrochloride of 4-MPHP), 1-(4-methyl-1-oxo-1-phenylpentan-2-yl)pyrrolidin-1-ium chloride (2; C16H24NO+·Cl−, the hydrochloride of α-PiHP) and methyl[1-(4-methylphenyl)-1-oxopentan-2-yl]azanium chloride (3; C13H20NO+·Cl−, the hydrochloride of 4-MPD). All the salts crystallize in a monoclinic space group: 1 and 2 in P21/c, and 3 in P21/n. To the best of our knowledge, this study provides the first detailed and comprehensive crystallographic data on salts 1–3.

AbstractA potassium tetranitratopalladate(II) with the composition K2[Pd(NO3)4] · 2HNO3 was synthesized by a simple solvothermal process in a glass ampoule. The new compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c (no. 14) with the lattice parameters a = 1017.15(4), b = 892.94(3), c = 880.55(3) Å, and β = 98.13(1)° (Z = 2). The crystal structure of K2[Pd(NO3)4] · 2HNO3 reveals isolated complex [Pd(NO3)4]2− anions, which are surrounded by eight potassium cations and four HNO3 molecules. The complex anions and the cations are associated in layers which are separated by HNO3 molecules. K2[Pd(NO3)4] · 2HNO3 can thus be regarded as a HNO3 intercalation variant of β-K2[Pd(NO3)4]. The characterization is based on single-crystal X-ray and powder X-ray diffraction.

Single crystals of Cu(pz)Br2 and Cu(pz)Cl2 were grown by using gel methods with tetramethoxysilane as the gel-forming reagent. Thermal decomposition is interpreted. Crystal data for the bromo complex: monoclinic, space group C2/m with a = 1239.2(3) pm, b = 685.9(2) pm, c = 390.7(3) pm, β = 96,23(5)°. Crystal data for the chloro-complex: monoclinic, space group C2/m with a = 1197.1(3) pm, b = 684.9(3) pm, c = 370.1(3) pm, β = 95.96(5)°. Crystal structure analyses reveal that CuHal2 molecules are bonded by pyrazine to form linear chains. These chains are cross-linked by bridging halogen atoms.

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.

With the facile displacement being utilized of thf from Yb(pin)2(thf)4 (pin = 2-phenylindol-1-yl, thf = tetrahydrofuran) in toluene solution, the complexes Yb(pin)2(dme)2 (dme = 1,2- dimethoxyethane), Yb(pin)2 (tmen)(tmen = N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethane-1,2-diamine) and Yb(pin)2(diglyme)(thf) (diglyme = bis(2-methoxyethyl) ether) have been prepared from the respective ligands and Yb(pin)2(thf)4. Yb(pin)2 (diglyme) (thf) [monoclinic, space group P 21 /c, a 15.35(1), b 16.179(5), c 14.45(2) Ǻ, β 107.51(8)°, Z 4, R 0.044 for 2956 (I > 3σ(I)) 'observed' reflections] has a monomeric six-coordinate structure with transoid nitrogen donor atoms, N-Yb-N 143.6(4)° and an irregular coordination polyhedron described as either a distorted trigonal prism or a monocapped square pyramid. Attempted crystallization of Yb(pin)2 (thf) by partial desolvation of Yb(pin)2(thf)4 in hot toluene, containing a trace of dme, gave a mixture of red Yb(pin)2(thf) and orange [Yb(pin)2(dme)]2. The latter was independently synthesized by partial desolvation of Yb(pin)2(dme)2 in toluene. An X-ray crystal structure showed [Yb(pin)2(dme)]2 [monoclinic, space group P 21/c, a 11 .614(2), b 15.945(7), c 15.327(4) Ǻ, β 110.19(2)°, Z 2 dimers, R 0.070 for 2314 (I ≥ 3σ(I)) 'observed' reflections] to be a dimer with two bridging pin ligands, coordinated through nitrogen only. There is an approximately square pyramidal five-coordinate ytterbium environment with an apical dme oxygen, and with two bridging nitrogens, a terminal nitrogen, and a dme oxygen in the basal plane.
