A new cadmium dicyanamide complex, poly[tetramethylphosphonium [μ-chlorido-di-μ-dicyanamido-κ4N1:N5-cadmium(II)]], [(CH3)4P][Cd(NCNCN)2Cl], was synthesized by the reaction of tetramethylphosphonium chloride, cadmium nitrate tetrahydrate and sodium dicyanamide in aqueous solution. In the crystal structure, each CdIIatom is octahedrally coordinated by four terminal N atoms from four anionic dicyanamide (dca) ligands and by two chloride ligands. The dicyanamide ligands play two different roles in the building up of the structure; one role results in the formation of [Cd(dca)Cl]2building blocks, while the other links the building blocks into a three-dimensional structure. The anionic framework exhibits a solvent-accessible void of 673.8 Å3, amounting to 47.44% of the total unit-cell volume. The cavities in the network are occupied by pairs of tetramethylphosphonium cations.

Crystal structure analyses of (rhodochlorinato-15-acetic trimethyl ester)copper(II) 3 and (31, 32-didehydro-rhodochlorinato-15-formic acid trimethyl ester)copper(II) 4 reveal intriguing multiple macrocycle conformations of the metallochlorins in the crystal. The observed conformations range from almost planar macrocycles to distorted macrocycles with individual atoms being displaced up to 0.72 Å from the mean plane. The nonplanar macrocycles show a S4-ruffled macrocycie distortion with significant distortions for the meso-carbons and tilting of the Cb- Cb axes. A comparison with the related free base porphyrins rhodoporphyrin-15- acetic acid trimethyl ester 5 and rhodoporphyrin dimethyl ester 6 shows that the conformational distortion is due to the mixing of metal and substituent effects, hydroporphyrin character, and packing forces.

The previously unknown crystal structure of the biogenic compound tryptamine, in the form of a free base (C10H12N2), has been solved from X-ray powder diffraction data using simulated annealing followed by restrained Rietveld refinement [space group P212121, a = 12.28593 (6), b = 8.53351 (4), c = 8.49385 (4) Å, Z = 4, final reduced-χ2 = 5.255]. A restrained Rietveld refinement was carried out in which the global weight factor, f, of the stereochemical restraints was gradually lowered. The effect of the relaxation of restraints on the crystal structure and on χ2 was studied and a criterion for the final choice of f is reported. The crystal structure reported here shows efficient packing involving weak intermolecular hydrogen bonding and a herringbone-type packing pattern.

Computational Techniques

Among microporous materials, there has been an increasing recent interest in porous organic cage (POC) crystals, which can display permanent intrinsic (molecular) and extrinsic (crystal network) porosity. These materials can be used as molecular sieves for gas separation and potential applications as enzyme mimics have been suggested since they exhibit structural response toward guest molecules[1]. Small structural modifications of the initial building blocks of the porous organic molecules can lead to quite different molecular assembly[1]. Moreover, the crystal packing of POCs is based on weak molecular interactions and is less predictable that other porous materials such as MOFs or zeolites.[2] In this contribution, we show that computational techniques -molecular conformational searches and crystal structure prediction- can be successfully used to understand POC crystal packing preferences. Computational results will be presented for a series of closely related tetrahedral imine- and amine-linked porous molecules, formed by [4+6] condensation of aromatic aldehydes and cyclohexyl linked diamines. While the basic cage is known to have one strongly preferred crystal structure, the presence of small alkyl groups on the POC modifies its crystal packing preferences, leading to extensive polymorphism. Calculations were able to successfully identify these trends as well as to predict the structures obtained experimentally, demonstrating the potential for computational pre-screening in the design of POCs within targeted crystal structures. Moreover, the need of accurate molecular (ab initio calculations) and crystal (based on atom-atom potential lattice energy minimization) modelling for computer-guided crystal engineering will be discussed.
