AbstractThe crystal structure of NH4[C(CN)3] has been determined via X-ray single-crystal methods at 203(2) K corroborating earlier results. Additionally, the hydrogen positions have been determined and the Raman spectrum of the title compound recorded on single crystals. The spectroscopic results are compared to those for related compounds.

The synthesis and room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structure determination of the title compound are recorded. Crystals are monoclinic, P 21/c, a 14.43(2), b 18.39(1), c 23.64(3) Ǻ, β 123.16(7)°, Z = 4, isostructural with the recently described Fe3Ru5 analogue; R was 0.048 for 6892 'observed' data [I > 3σ(I)]. The cluster is one of the few containing separated carbide ligands within a polyhedral metal skeleton, consisting of an Ru5C square pyramid and an Ru6C octahedron sharing a triangular face, with two PPh2 groups bridging opposite Ru-Ru vectors in each polyhedron.

Colorless, transparent single crystals of CaBa8[CN2]6O2(N0.5H0.5) (R3̄ (no. 148), a = 996.94(4) and c = 1803.18(8) pm, Z = 3) were obtained by the reaction of Ca3N2, Ba2N and NaHCN2 (of which one of the latter two most likely was contaminated with some oxygen impurity) in arcwelded Nb ampoules at 1200 K. The title compound consists of distorted (H/N)Ba6 octahedra which share two of their opposite faces with OBa4 tetrahedra interconnected by [N=C=N]2- units of Ca(N=C=N)6 octahedra with C=N bond lengths of 121.9(6) and 124.3(6) pm and with a bond angle deviating from linearity with (N-C-N) = 175:9(5)°. A Raman spectrum obtained from the crystal used for the structure determination indicates the presence of the [N=C=N]2- unit.

Single crystals of Ca11N6[CN2]2 (dark red needles, tetragonal, P42/mnm (no. 136), a = 1456.22(5), and c = 361.86(2) pm, Z = 2), Ca4N2[CN2] (transparent yellow needles, orthorhombic, Pnma (no. 62), a = 1146.51(11), b = 358.33(4), and c = 1385.77(13) pm, Z = 4) and Ca[CN2] (transparent, colorless, triangular plates, rhombohedral, R3̅m (no. 166), a = 369.00(3), and c = 1477.5(3) pm, Z = 3) were obtained by the reaction of Na2[CN2], CaCl2 and Ca3N2 (if demanded by stoichiometry) in arc-welded Ta ampoules at temperatures between 1200 - 1400 K. Their crystal structures were re-determined by means of single crystal X-ray structure analyses. Additionally, the Raman spectra were recorded on these same single crystals, whereas the IR spectra were obtained with the KBr pellet technique. The title compounds exhibit characteristic features for carbodiimide units with D∞h symmetry (d(C-N) = 121.7 - 123.8 pm and ∡ (N-C-N) = 180°). The vibrational frequencies of these units are in the expected range (Ca11N6[CN2]2: νs = 1230, νs = 2008; δ = 673/645/624 cm−1; Ca4N2[CN2]: νs = 1230, νs = 1986; δ = 672/647 cm−1; Ca[CN2]: νs = 1274, νs = 2031, δ = 668 cm−1). The structural results are more precise than the previously reported data, and with the newly attained Raman spectrum of Ca11N6[CN2]2 we correct data reported earlier.

Rhodium- catalysed reactions of o- or p- cyano-N-allylanilines with H2/CO give N- arylpyrrolidine aldehydes resulting from a double hydroformylation sequence. In contrast reactions of o- or p-methyl-N-allylanilines or N- allylaniline itself with H2/CO give ' dimeric ' compounds resulting from self-condensation reactions of an initially formed hydroformylation product together with varying amounts of the double hydroformylation product. Similar reactions of o-cyano-N-but-3-enylanilines give low yields of double hydroformylation products and major products arising from hydrogenation or cross coupling of intermediate enamines. The structure of one of these products, N-2-cyanophenyl-5-(N′-2-cyanophenyl-3-methyl-pyrrolidin-2-yl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyridine (17) (IUPAC name: 2-[5-{1-(2-cyanophenyl)-3-methylpyrrolidin-2-yl}-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyridin-1-yl] benzonitrile ) was confirmed by an X-ray single-crystal structure determination.

Pale grey-blue, transparent single crystals of Ba2[BN2]Cl (I4132 (no. 214), a = 1462.88(1) pm, Z = 24) are obtained by the reaction of Ba, BaCl2, BN and NaN3 in arc-welded Ta ampoules at 1200 K. The crystal structure was determined by single crystal X-ray structure analysis. The Raman and IR spectra of the title compound show the expected fundamental frequencies (νs = 1038; νas = 1969 and 2087; δ = 616 / 636 cm−1) for a nitridoborate unit with D∞h symmetry. The [N-B-N] structure obtained by X-ray single crystal structure determination corroborates this finding within the standard deviations of the measurement with d(B-N) = 132.3(8) pm and ∡ (N-B-N) = 178.5(13)°. Our results compare well to the data reported for cubic and orthorhombic Ba3[BN2]2 as well as to the isotypic compound Ba2[BN2]Br.

Abstract Ethyl 5-oxo-3-(4-toluidino)-2,5-dihydro-4-isoxazolecarboxylate was prepared from the reaction of diethyl 2-(4-toluidinocarbothioyl)malonate with hydroxylamine. Its reaction with 2- chlorobenzoxazole gave the corresponding N-substituted isoxazolone. The structure of the final product 4 was confirmed by IR, 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry, and by X-ray single crystal structure determination.
