AbstractSingle crystals of Np2O5 have been synthesized by low-temperature hydrothermal reaction of a Np5+ stock solution with natural calcite crystals. The structure of Np2O5 was solved by direct methods and refined on the basis of F2 for all unique data collected on a Bruker X-ray diffractometer equipped with an APEX II CCD detector. Np2O5 is monoclinic, space group P2/c, with a = 8.168(2) Å, b = 6.584(1) Å, c = 9.3130(2) Å, β = 116.01(1)˚, V = 449.8(2) Å3, and Z = 1. The structure contains chains of edge-sharing neptunyl pentagonal bipyramids linked into sheets through cation-cation interactions with distorted neptunyl square bipyramids. Additional cation-cation interactions connect the sheets into a three-dimensional framework. The formation of Np2O5 on the surface of calcite crystals has important implications for the precipitation of isolated neptunyl phases in natural aqueous systems.

Abstract Benzo-18 -crown-6 -Acetonitrile (1/2), Crystal Structure Single crystals of the title complex resulted fortuitously during an attempt to co-crystallise MeN(SO2Me)2 with benzo-18-crown-6 from an MeCN solution at -30 °C. The crystal structure has been determined via data collection at -100 °C (monoclinic, space group P21/n, Z = 4). The nitrile molecules are located with their me­ thyl groups above and below the plane of the 18-membered crown ring, the Me hydrogen atoms being rotationally disordered about the MeCN axes; C(methyl)···O(crown) distances range from 309.4(3) to 384.9(3) pm.

Crystal and molecular structures of the title compounds have been determined from three dimensional X-ray diffraction data recorded on a four-circle diffractometer. Crystals of the acetyl complex, trans-PtCl(COMe)(PMePh2)2,(1), are monoclinic, space group P2,1/c, with a 12.9709(5), b 11.1024(5), c 277535(9) Ǻ, β 94.75(1)° and Z 6. Crystals of the trifluoroacetyl complex, trans-PtCl(COCF3)- (PMePh2)2, (2), are monoclinic, space group P21/n (non-standard setting of P21c), with a 11.4246(7), b 15.5750(7), c 15.4200(8) Ǻ, β 90.54(1)° and Z 4. For (I), with Z 6, the unit cell contains one set of four equivalent molecules in the general equipoint and one set of two equivalent (disordered) molecules located at inversion centres. The four molecules in (2) comprise a single equivalent set in the general equipoint. Least-squares analyses converge with R 0.042 for (1) (5696 unique data) and R 0.025 for (2) (3933 unique data). Molecules of both complexes exhibit small deformations from planar towards tetrahedral platinum geometry; the acyl and coordination planes are approximately orthogonal. The phosphine substituents in (2) and in the 'general' molecules in (1) are approximately eclipsed, and approximately eclipse the Pt-C (acetyl) bonds. In the 'special' molecules in (1) the phosphines are constrained to adopt the mutually staggered conformation found in the alkyl analogues trans-PtClR(PMePhM2)2 (R = Me, CF3, C2F2). Important comparative lengths in (1) (general molecule) and in (2) (in square brackets) are: Pt-C 2.028(6) [1.960(4)] A, Pt-Cl 2.430(2) [2.390(1)] Ǻ, Pt-P 2.301(2), 2.297(2) [2.316(1), 2.321(1)] A, C-O 1.182(8) [1.210(5)] 8, and C C (acetyl) 1.488(10) [1.547(6)] A. The trifluoroacetyl ligand forms a shorter and presumably stronger bond with platinum, and exerts a larger cis- and a smaller trans-influence than the acyl ligand. The smaller trans-influence of the trifluoroacetyl ligand is consistent with the expectation from platinum-chlorine stretching frequencies (v(Pt-Cl)).

AbstractHydrothermal synthesis produced the new compound SrCo2(AsO4)(AsO3OH)(OH)(H2O).

Compound 1 consists of the [W6O19]3-building blocks and [Cu (phen)2]+metal organic cationic moieties, which are packed together via the extensive hydrogen-bonding interactions to form a three-dimensional supramolecular framework. The adsorption of methylene blue (MB) under UV irradiation with 1 as the heterogeneous adsorbent has been investigated, showing a good adsorptive property of 1 for MB degradation.

The crystal structure of potassium hydrogen di-iodate (bi-iodate) KIO3.HIO3 was determined from three dimensional X-ray data collected by counter methods. The structure was refined by full-matrix least-squares techniques to a conventional R factor of 5.0 % for the 1392 observed reflexions. The salt crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with eight formula units in a cell of dimension a = 7.028(1) Å, b = 8.203(1) Å, c = 21.841(3) Å, β = 98.03(1)°.The iodate units are all basically pyramidal; weak interionic I—O contacts complete a very distorted octahedral environment around three iodine atoms. There is a capped octahedral (7-coordinate) environment around the remaining iodine atom. The I—O bonds are in the range 1.75–1.82 Å and the I—OH bonds are 1.91 and 1.95 Å, variations in length can be correlated with differences in the degree of involvement in (a) hydrogen bonding and (b) interaction with adjacent iodine atoms.

AbstractThe crystal structure of the manganese phosphate mineral gatehouseite, ideally Mn52+(PO4)2(OH)4, space group P212121, a = 17.9733(18), b = 5.6916(11), c = 9.130(4) Å, V= 933.9(4) Å3, Z = 4, has been solved by direct methods and refined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data (T = 293 K) to an R index of 3.76%. Gatehouseite is isostructural with arsenoclasite and with synthetic Mn52+(PO4)2(OH)4. The structure contains five octahedrally coordinated Mn sites, occupied by Mn plus very minor Mg with observed <Mn—O> distances from 2.163 to 2.239 Å. Two tetrahedrally coordinated P sites, occupied by P, Si and As, have <P—O> distances of 1.559 and 1.558 Å. The structure comprises two types of building unit. A strip of edge-sharing Mn(O,OH)6 octahedra, alternately one and two octahedra wide, extends along [010]. Chains of edge- and corner-shared Mn(O,OH)6 octahedra coupled by PO4 tetrahedra extend along [010]. By sharing octahedron and tetrahedron corners, these two units form a dense three-dimensional framework, which is further strengthened by weak hydrogen bonding. Chemical analyses by electron microprobe gave a unit formula of (Mn4.99Mg0.02)Σ5.01(P1.76Si0.07(As0.07)Σ2.03O8(OH)3.97.
