AbstractThe preparation, characterization and the molecular structure of a dinuclear uranyl complex [(UO2)2L(OCMe2)2] supported by the bis-salophen ligand N,N′,N″,N′″-tetra-(3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylidene)-1,2,4,5-phenylenetetraamine (L4–) is described. [(UO2)2L(OCMe2)2] was prepared by reaction of uranyl nitrate with the neutral, protonated form of the ligand (H4L) in acetone. From a saturated acetone solution [(UO2)2L(OCMe2)2]·1.5(OCMe2) crystallizes triclinically, space group P1̅ with a = 1522.7(2), b = 1751.4(2), c = 1815.4(2) Å, α = 109.16(1), β = 99.29(1), γ = 105.29(1)° and Z = 2. Each uranium atom is surrounded in a distorted pentagonal bipyramidal fashion by two O and two N atoms of the salicylidene units, one O atom of an acetone ligand, and the two oxo groups. The cyclic voltammogram of [(UO2)2L(OCMe2)2] shows two quasi-reversible redox processes centered at +0.57 V and +0.82 V vs. Fc+/Fc attributed to the sequential oxidation of the coordinating phenolates to phenoxyl radicals. The crystal structure of an ethanol solvate of H4L was also determined by X-ray crystallography. H4L·5EtOH: triclinic, space group P1̅, a = 1003.4(3), b = 1187.7(3), c = 1905.1(5) Å, α = 75.75(2), β = 78.74(2), γ = 66.66(2)°, Z = 1.

In a systematic search for supramolecular complexes involving all combinations of the cyclic polyethers 12-crown-4 (12C4), 15-crown-5 (15C 5), 18-crown-6 (18C 6) and dibenzo- 18-crown-6 (DB -18C6), and the geminal di- or trisulfones H2C(SO 2Me)2, H2C (SO2Et)2 and HC (SO2Me)3-n (SO2Et)n (n = 0 -3 ) , only the following four complexes could be isolated and unequivocally characterized by elemental analysis and 1H NMR spectroscopy: [(12C4){H2C (SO2Et)2}2] (3), [(18C6){H2C (S O2Me)2}] (4), [(DB -18C 6){H2C (SO2Et)2}] (5) and [(D B -18C 6)2{HC (SO2Me )(SO2Et)2}3] (6). The structure of 3 (triclinic, space group P1̄) consists of crystallographically centrosymmetric formula units, in which the disulfone molecules are bonded on each side of the ring by two C -H ··· O(crown) interactions originating from the central methylene group (H···O 213 pm) and from the methylene group of one EtSO2 moiety ( H ··· O 237 pm). Formula units related by translation are connected into parallel strands by a third type of reciprocal C -H ···O bond (H ···O 232 pm) between the second H atom of the central methylene group and a sulfonyl oxygen atom of the adjacent unit. The structure of 4 (monoclinic, space group C2/c) showed severe disorder of the crown ether and could not be refined satisfactorily. Compounds 5 and 6 crystallized as long and extremely thin fibres, indicative of linear-polymeric supramolecular structures; single crystals for X-ray crystallography were not available.

Decaphenylchromocenium and decaphenylcobaltocenium cations [M(η5-C5Ph5)2]+, M = Cr and Co, were synthesized by oxidation of the corresponding neutral decaphenylchromocene and decaphenylcobaltocene respectively with nitrosyl tetrafluoroborate. The complexes are air-stable and were fully characterized; decaphenylchromocenium tetrafluoroborate (1) and decaphenylcobaltocenium tetrafluoroborate (2) were structurally characterized by X-ray crystallography. Crystals of (1) (as a water/methylene chloride solvate), C70·5H50BClCrF4O0·5, M 1079·42, are triclinic, space group P -1 (No. 2), a 13·634(5), b 17·424(5), c 13·298(4) Å, α 106·45(2), β 101·83(3), γ 74·56(2)°, Z 2. Crystals of (2) (as a water/methylene chloride solvate), C70·5H50BClCoF4O0·5, M 1086·36, are triclinic, space group P-1 (No. 2), a 13·633(2), b 17·683(3), c 13·255(3) Å, α 107·95(1), β 102·71(1), γ 73·23(1)°, Z2.

Abstract The reaction of the phosphido-bridged metal carbonyl [FeRh(CO)6(μ-PBut2)] (1) with dppm [dppm = bis(diphenylphosphino)methane] leads to the heterobimetallic complex [FeRh(μ-CO)(CO)3(μ-PBut2)(μ-dppm)] (2) in good yields. The molecular structure of 2 was determined at room temperature [triclinic, space group P1̄, a = 9.509(6), b = 13.637(5), c = 14.926(8) Å, α = 81.38(4), β = 82.75(4), γ = 71.25(4)°]. The compound acts as a homogeneous catalyst precursor in the hydroformylation reaction of ethylene, but it decomposes during this process.

Reaction of neodymium metal with bis ( pentafluorophenyl )mercury and pyrazole ( Hpz ) or 3,5-dimethylpyrazole ( Hdmpz ) in tetrahydrofuran ( thf ) yields Nd ( pz )3 or [ Nd ( dmpz )3( thf )]2. X-Ray crystallography has shown that [Nd (dmpz )3( thf )]2 [triclinic, space group Pī (No. 2), a 11.070(4), b 11.364(3), c 10.867(2)Ǻ, α 103.00(1), β 120.78(3), γ 97.68(2)°, R 0.0235, Rw 0.0247 for 5575 observed reflections] has a novel centrosymmetric dimeric structure. Each neodymium is eight-coordinate (4,4 bicapped trigonal prism) with two terminal chelating dmpz ligands [ Nd -N 2.400(2), 2.413(3), 2.422(3), 2.426(3)Ǻ], two bridging dmpz ligands [ Nd -N 2.509(2), 2.511(2)Ǻ], and, unexpectedly, two bridging tetrahydrofuran ligands [ Nd -O 2.792(2), 2.757(2)Ǻ].

The crystalano molecular structure of cyclopentadienyl manganese dicarbonyl-triphenyl phosphine has been determined by means of three dimensional data obtained by a Buerger precession camera. 2931 independent intensities were utilized in the refinement of the structure using the least-squares method. The final disagreement factor is 0.11. MnC5H5(CO)2P(C6H5)3 crystallizes in the triclinic space group.[Formula: see text]The molecule shows atomic parameter almost identical to those of MnC5H5(CO)3 except for the Mn—C bond lengths which change from 1.80 to 1.73 Å. The Mn—P distance (2.236 Å) and the unchanged parameters for the Mn—C5H5 group confirm the strong donating power of the cyclopentadienyl group. [Journal translation]

The structures of three tetramethylammonium salts containing anions of formula [(μ-SePh)6(MSePh)4]2− (M = Zn and Cd) were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. The Zn salt crystallizes in different space groups depending upon the solvent combination used in the synthesis. Thus crystals of (Me4N)2[Zn4(SePh)10], 1, grown from a mixture of methanol, acetonitrile, and acetone are triclinic, space group [Formula: see text] with cell dimensions a = 13.214(2), b = 23.859(2), c = 13.072(1) Å, α = 91.134(8), β = 113.350(8), γ = 79.865(9)°, and Z = 2. In the absence of acetone, a solvated crystal (Me4N)2[Zn4(SePh)10]•CH3CN, 2, is formed, which belongs to the monoclinic space group P21/n with a = 14.248(1), b = 39.722(2), c = 13.408(1) Å, β = 97.132(5)°, and Z = 4. The Cd salt (Me4N)2[Cd4(SePh)10], 3, crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c, with a = 20.830(2), b = 14.282(1), c = 25.872(1) Å, β = 99.626(6)°, and Z = 4. These three salts are the first examples of homoleptic, tetranuclear selenolatometal(II) anions with (μ-Se)6M4 cages of adamantane-type stereochemistry. In each case the phenyl substituents of the bridging ligands adopt the configuration [aae, aae, aee, aee], which has the minimum number of two 1,3-axial–axial non-bonding substituent interactions. Keywords: selenolate complexes, synthesis, X-ray crystallography, isomerism, adamantane stereochemistry.

The title morphine analogue crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 with lattice parameters a = 7.620(1), b = 9.140(1), c = 9.591(1) Å, α = 105.48(1), β = 112.91(1), γ = 84.29(1)°, Z = 1. The butorphanol B ring possesses the 3E envelope conformation with small 3H2 distortion, C and D rings have a regular chair conformation. The intramolecular N17-H17...O2 hydrogen bond is observed in crystal structure of the title compound. The butorphanol and hydrogen tartrate molecules are joined together by means of O2-H(O2)...O7, O1-H(O1)...O7' and O3-H(O3)...O8" hydrogen bonds to form networks.

According to an X-ray structure analysis 1,5-bis(di-tert-butylmethylsilyl)-2,2,4,4,6,6,7,7-octamethyl-3-oxa-2,4,6,7-tetrasilabicyclo[3.1.1]heptane (1) is a rigid bicyclic molecule consisting of a 1,3-disilacyclobutane ring whose 2,4 positions are bridged by a Me2Si—O—SiMe2 fragment. The four-membered ring is non-planar with a dihedral angle of 33.8° along the C—C axis. The intraring valence angles at carbon are significantly smaller than those at silicon leading to a transannular Si ··· Si distance of only 2.558(1) Å (triclinic, space group P 1̄ with a = 9.125(2), b = 12.668(2), c = 15.499(3) Å, α = 101.25(1), β = 87.87(1), γ = 96.88(1)°, V = 1744.4 Å3 R (wR) = 0.044 (0.051) for 316 refined parameters and 5156 observables).
