Single crystals of Eu5(BO3)3Cl were obtained by serendipity by reacting Eu2O3 and Mg with B2O3 at 1300 K in the presence of an NaCl melt for 13 h in silica-jacketed Nb ampoules. Ba5(BO3)3X (X = Cl, Br) crystals were formed by direct synthesis from appropriate amounts of Ba(OH)2, H3BO3 and the respective barium halide (hydrate) in alumina crucibles kept in the open atmosphere at 1300 K for 13 h. The crystal structures of the title compounds were determined with single-crystal X-ray diffraction. All compounds crystallize isotypically to Sr5(BO3)3Cl in the orthorhombic space group C2221 (no. 20, Z = 4) with the lattice parameters a = 1000.34(7), b = 1419.00(9), c = 739.48(5) pm for Eu5(BO3)3Cl, a = 1045.49(5), b = 1487.89(8), c = 787.01(4) pm for Ba5(BO3)3Cl, and a = 1048.76(7), b = 1481.13(9) and c = 801.22(5) pm for Ba5(BO3)3Br. The Raman spectra of all compounds were acquired and are presented and compared to literature data. The incremental volume of the orthoborate (BO3)3− anion has been determined and is compared to the Biltz volume

Single crystals of Ca7H12Cl2 and Ca2H3Br were obtained by reacting stoichiometric amounts of CaH2 and CaX2 (X = Cl, Br) at 1300 K in the presence of surplus Ca metal for 13 h in silicajacketed Nb ampoules. The crystal structures of the new compounds were determined by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Ca7H12Cl2 crystallizes isotypical to Ba7Cl2F12 and Sr7H12Cl2 in the hexagonal space group P¯6 (no. 174) with the lattice parameters a = 936.51(8), c = 368.65(2) pm, while Ca2H3Br crystallizes in a stuffed anti-CdI2 structure isotypical to Ba2H3Cl and therefore adopts the space group P¯3m1 (no. 164) with the lattice parameters a = 391.37(6) and c = 697.04(13) pm. The structural results are corroborated by EUTAX calculations on the title compounds and the comparison of these results to those for CaH2, CaX2 and CaHX (X = Cl, Br). Similar calculations on the hypothetical compound “Ca7H12Br2” give a possible explanation for the preferred formation of the compound Ca2H3Br.

Dichroic, pink to blue single crystals of Sr7H12Cl2 and Sr7H12Br2 were obtained by reacting Sr with SrX2 or NaX and NaNH2 or NH4X (X = Cl, Br) as hydrogen sources in a Na melt at 900 °C for 12 h in silica-jacketed stainless-steel or Ta ampoules. The crystal structures of the new compounds were determined by means of single crystal X-ray diffraction. Both title compounds crystallize isotypically to Ba7Cl2F12 in the hexagonal space group P6̅ (no. 174) with the lattice parameters a = 998.06(3), c = 392.84(3) pm for Sr7H12Cl2 and a = 1004.62(3), c = 399.68(3) pm for Sr7H12Br2. The hydride positions taken from the difference Fourier map agree with those of the fluorides of the isotypic compound Ba7F12Cl12. The validity of our structural results is corroborated by EUTAX calculations and the comparison to SrH2, SrX2 and SrHX.

Metal Arsenates

The new alkaline metal arsenates(III) were synthesized at a temperature of 500 °C via reaction of stoichiometric mixtures of the elemental alkali metals A and As2O3. In the crystal structures of the four title compounds, which have been determined by single crystal x-ray diffraction, the As(III) atoms are in ψ-tetrahedral coordination by oxygen exclusively. In NaAsO2 (orthorhombic, space group Pbcm, a = 1429.6(9), b = 677.3(3), c = 509.1(2) pm, Z = 8) and the compounds AAsO2 (A = K/Rb, orthorhombic, space group Pbcm, a = 715.1(2)/729.7(5), b =748.0(1)/775.2(5), c = 539.20(17)/541.1(3) pm, Z = 4) the AsO3 ψ-tetrahedra are condensed to form zig-zag chains [AsOO2/2]−. In the Cs phase Cs3As5O9 with a lower alkaline metal content (trigonal, space group P31m, a = 845.5(3), c = 602.6(2) pm, Z = 1) the two crystallographically independent ψ-tetrahedra AsO3/2 and AsOO2/2 are connected in a 2:3 ratio to give polar sheets [As5O9]3−.

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.

A new method has been established for the preparation of C 2-oxidized 5,5-spiroacetals, which are key intermediates for the synthesis of the bis-spiroacetal moiety of the spirolides. A bridged orthoester was used as a masked carboxylic acid in the preparation of these bicyclic oxaspirolactones. The synthesis of chiral lactone (12), a building block for the synthesis of the spirolides, is also reported. The two chiral centres in lactone (12) were assembled by addition of a chiral crotyl borane to an aldehyde. The structure of lactone (12) was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction; orthorhombic space group P212121 (No. 19), a 12.437(2), b 23.881(4), c 7.545(1) Å, V 2240.9(5) Å3, R(F) 0.0460, and Rw(F) 0.0458.

Single crystals of Sr2H3I andBa5H2I3.9(2)O2 were obtained by reacting Sr or Ba, respectively, with dried and sublimed NH4I in a 4 : 1 molar ratio in silica-jacketed Nb ampoules for 13 h at 1200 K. The crystal structures of the new compounds have been determined by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Sr2H3I crystallizes in a stuffed anti-CdI2 structure isotypic to Ba2H3Cl in the space group P3m1 (no. 164) with the lattice parameters a = 426.0(1) and c = 774.9(2) pm, while Ba5H2I3.9(2)O2 crystallizes in a new structure type in the space group Cmcm (no. 63) with the lattice parameters a = 1721.0(2), b = 1452.5(2) and c = 639.03(9) pm. The structural results for Sr2H3I are corroborated by EUTAX calculations. For the disordered compound Ba5H2I3.9(2)O2, EUTAX calculations on an approximated, ordered structural model were used to find possible insights into the disorder

Abstract EuPdSn and EuPtSn were prepared from the elements in tantalum tubes at 1070 K and investigated by X-ray diffraction on both powder as well as single crystals. They crystallize with the TiNiSi type structure of space group Pnma and with Z = 4 formula units per cell. Both structures were refined from single-crystal diffractometer data: a = 751.24(9), b = 469.15(6), c = 804.31(9) pm, V = 0.2835(1) nm3 for EuPdSn, and a = 753.38(7), b = 467.72(4), c = 793.08(7) pm, V = 0.2795(1) nnr for EuPtSn. The structures consist of three-dimensional [PdSn] and [PtSn] polyanionic networks in which the europium atoms are embedded. The crystal chemistry of these stannides is briefly discussed
