AbstractFour solvent complexes of beryllium iodide were prepared by dissolving BeI2 in N,N-dimethyl formamide (DMF), pyridine (Pyr), N-methyl pyrrolidone (NMP) and 2,6-dimethyl pyridine (2,6-lutidine, Lut). Their crystal structures were established from single crystal X-ray diffraction. For [Be(DMF)4]I2 a new modification is reported (monoclinic, space group P21/c, a = 12.491(2), b = 11.593(2), c = 15.310(3) Å, β = 94.7073(6)°). In [Be(Pyr)4]I2 (monoclinic, space group C2/c, a = 17.8799(13), b = 7.6174(5), c = 18.2611(14) Å, β = 113.508(4)°) and [Be(NMP)4]I2 (orthorhombic, space group Pbca, a = 13.941(5), b = 15.754(3), c = 24.634(7) Å) homoleptic tetrahedral complex cations are formed, while the sterically demanding solvent ligand Lut yields a neutral complex with covalently bound iodine ligands [BeI2(Lut)2] (monoclinic, space group P21/c, a = 7.8492(9), b = 24.265(3), c = 27.037(3) Å, β = 97.076(3)°). Their electrochemical stability with respect to their application as beryllium electrolytes for deposition of beryllium from solution is discussed.

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.

The crystal structures of 2-fluorophenoxyacetic acid ( oflpaH ) and the metal complexes aquabis (2-fluorophenoxyacetato) bis (pyridine)copper(II) (1) and tetraaquabis (2-fluorophenoxyacetato)zinc(II) dihydrate (2) have been determined by X-ray diffraction and refined to residuals R 0.036, 0.041, 0.025 for 641, 863 and 1505 observed reflections respectively. The acid crystallizes in a monoclinic cell, space group P21/c with a 6.207(2), b 19.363(8), c 6.999(2) Ǻ, β 114.81(2)� and Z 4. The molecules form planar, centrosymmetric , hydrogen-bonded cyclic dimers [O...O, 2.618(4)Ǻ]. Complex (1) is orthorhombic, space group P2cb with two molecules in a cell of dimensions a 5.621 (2), b 17.218(7), c 13.288(6)Ǻ while (2) is monoclinic, space group P21/c, a 6.597(2), b 5.279(2), c 30.079(10) Ǻ, β 94.65(3)�; with Z 2. Complex (1) has square-pyramidal geometry with the basal plane containing two trans related carboxyl oxygens [Cu-O, 1.944(4)Ǻ] and two trans related pyridine nitrogens [Cu-N, 2.030(5)Ǻ]. A water molecule occupies the apex of the square pyramid [Cu-OW, 2.199(8)Ǻ]. Complex (2) has octahedral geometry with the MO6 octahedron containing two trans related carboxyl oxygens [Zn-O, 2.122(2)Ǻ] and four water oxygens [Zn-OW, 2.069(2), 2.085(2)Ǻ]. Preliminary X-ray data also confirm that the magnesium(II) and manganese(II) complexes of 2-fluorophenoxyacetic acid are isomorphous with (2) but different from the cobalt(II) derivative.

The structures of two crystalline modifications of mer -(Pme2Ph)3H-cis-Cl2IrIII, (1), have been determined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. Modification (A) is monoclinic, space group P21/c with a 12.635(1), b 30.605(3), c 14.992(2)Ǻ, β 110.01(2)° and Z = 8. Modification (B) is orthorhombic, space group Pbca with a 27.646(3), b 11.366(1), c 17.252(2)Ǻ and Z = 8. The structures were solved by conventional heavy atom techniques and refined by full-matrix least- squares analyses to conventional R values of 0.037 [(A), 8845 independent reflections] and 0.028 [(B), 5291 independent reflections]. Important bond lengths [Ǻ] are Ir -P(trans to Cl ) 2.249(1) av. (A) and 2.234(1) (B), Ir -P(trans to PMe2Ph) 2.339(2) av. (A) and 2.344(1), 2.352(1) (B), Ir-Cl (trans to H) 2.492(2), 2.518(2) (A) and 2.503(1) (B) and Ir-Cl (trans to PMe2Ph)2.452(2) av. (A) and 2.449(1)(B). Differences in chemically equivalent metal- ligand bond lengths emphasize the importance of non-bonded contacts in determining those lengths.

The preparation and purification of [Pt( hpip )Cl2] and [Pd( hpip )Cl2] ( hpip = homopiperazine = 1,4-diazacycloheptane) are described. Crystal structures of [Pt( hpip )Cl2] and [Pd( hpip )Cl2] have been determined by X-ray diffraction methods and refined to R values of 0.023 (932 F) and 0.023 (948 F). The crystals of [Pt( hpip )Cl2] are orthorhombic, space group Pbcm , a 7.7019(8), b 9.8080(12), c 12.1944(14) Ǻ, and those of [Pd( hpip )Cl2] are monoclinic, space group P21/m, a 6.1001(9), b 11.527(2), c 6.458(I) Ǻ, β 106.30(2)°. The seven- membered rings of the ligands in both complexes adopt boat-like conformations in which the five- membered chelate ring has an eclipsed N-C-C-N group and the six- membered chelate ring adopts a chair conformation. Molecular mechanics methods were used to investigate whether this conformation was a crystallographic artefact but it was found to be real. An alternative conformation in which the six-membered chelate ring adopts a skew-boat conformation was also investigated. It was found to be less stable than the conformation observed in the crystal structures, but to a degree that depends on whether non-bonded interactions involving the metal atom were included or not.

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−.

The crystal structures of the title compounds were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. The molecule of the Z isomer, which crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with Z = 4 in a cell of dimensions a = 14.891 (2), b = 10.780(2), c = 8.769(1) Å, β = 97.47(2)°, V = 1395.7(7) Å3 has crystallographic twofold symmetry. The E form crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbca with a = 11.730(1), b = 6.932(1), c = 16.841(1) Å, V = 1369.4(2) Å3 and Z = 4. Its molecules have crystallographically dictated [Formula: see text] symmetry. In both isomers the phenyl rings are roughly perpendicular to the average ethylene plane. The atoms characterizing this plane show significant deviations from planarity in the Z isomer. Marked bond-angle distortions at the ethene carbons of both structures are observed. The 1H and 13C NMR spectra of the compounds were measured and, particularly in the case of the 1H chemical shifts, fall into two quite separate spectral regions. At low temperature, two conformational isomers, those with different relative orientation of the C—Cl bonds of the phenyl rings, are observed in the spectrum of each compound. Keywords: chlorostilbenes, overcrowded molecules. X-ray structure, conformations, NMR spectroscopy.

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
