The Zn(II) complex of salen-like scaffold [Zn(sal)](H2O) was synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV–Vis, and 1H-NMR spectroscopic techniques. The structure of complex was confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies. In the complex, Zn (II) was placed in the inner N2O2 compartment of the salen scaffold in square planar geometry and crystallized in the monoclinic space group P21/n. DFT and TDDFT calculations were performed to reproduce the experimentally observed structural and spectroscopic (IR and UV–vis) findings. The bonding of the Zn(II) framework in the [Zn(sal)](H2O) complex was explored in depth. The theoretical approaches employed were perturbation theory within the context of the natural bond orbital (NBO) framework, and quantum theory of atoms in molecule (QTAIM) and electron localization function (ELF) analysis. The study begins by delineating the difference between the NBO and QTAIM approaches. This paper thus exhibits the supportive nature of NBO theory and QTAIM in discussion of the bonding in the [Zn(sal)](H2O) complex, when both the methodologies are used in combination.

3-Hydrazonocamphor, 3-(RR1NN)C10H14O (R = Me, R1 = H), undergoes intramolecular hydrogen bridging by coordination to platinum or palladium. This effect is evidenced by considerable decrease in the ν(C=O) frequency (compared to the free ligand) in the IR spectra of the complexes [MCl2L2] (M = Pd, Pt; L = 3-(RR1NN)C10H14O) as well as by the magnetic non- equivalence of the two ligands, as revealed by 13C NMR. DFT calculations indicate that coordination of 3-(Me(H)NN)C10H14O promotes E/Z isomerization of the hydrazono group of the ligand, inducing formation of intramolecular hydrogen bonding and corresponding stabilization of the complex. Characterization of the complexes [MCl2L2] (M = Pt; L: R, R1 = Me (1), R = Me, R1 = H (2) and M = Pd; L: R = Me, R1 = H (3)) was performed by analytical and spectroscopic techniques. Redox properties of the 3-hydazonocamphors and their complexes were studied by cyclic voltammetry. The structure of trans-[PtCl2{3-(Me2NN)C10H14O}2] was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The complex has square-planar geometry and crystallizes in the tetragonal P43 space group.

An X-ray diffraction study of [Pt3S2(PMe2Ph)6][BEt4]2 shows that it crystallises in the monoclinic space group, C2/c, with a = 15.447(2), b = 18.033(3), c = 26.505(5) Å, β = 96.73(2)°. The cation consists of three, distorted, square-planar cis-PtS2(PMe2Ph)2 moieties combined by sharing of the two sulphur atoms to produce a central Pt3S2 unit with C2 symmetry and Pt—Pt distances of 3.182(1) Å (one edge) and 3.108(1) Å (two edges). Complete analysis and computer simulation of 31P{1H} and 195Pt{1H} nuclear magnetic resonance spectra give values for 1J(Pt—P), 3202 Hz; 3J(Pt—P), −25 Hz; and 2J(Pt—Pt), 476 Hz. The structure is compared with previous results for analogous Ni and Pd complexes and the structural and nmr parameters are discussed with reference to the possibility of metal–metal interactions.

A [O,N] bidentate π-expanded ligand system, (E)-1-(n-octylimino)methylpyren-2-ol (2), was newly synthesized via a six-step synthesis from pyrene. The ligand 2 reacts with [PtCl2(PhCN)2] in chlorobenzene and the presence of a base at reflux for 2 h under the formation of (2(Pt)) complex with a yield of 70%. The molecular structure of (2(Pt)), studied by common spectroscopic methods and X-ray diffraction, shows a square planar geometry with a trans-configuration of the ligands. The molecular structure, absorption spectra, electrochemical properties, and phosphorescence characteristics of the (2(Pt)) complex are discussed, emphasizing the comparison with those of the previously reported Pt complex (1(Pt)) containing the isomeric ligands of 2, (E)-2-(n-octylimino)methylpyren-1-ol. The DFT calculations of the two Pt complexes are carried out and exhibit a clear explanation of the relationship between their physico-chemical characteristics.

The crystal and molecular structures of pentane-2,4-dionato-(2,3,5,6-tetrahapto-2,3-dicarbomethoxo[2.2.1]bicycloheptadienerhodium(I), Rh(C5H7O2)(C7H6(CO2CH3)2), have been measured by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The orange crystals are monoclinic, space group P21/c, Z = 4, a = 9.245(4), b = 9.003(4), c = 21.680(15) Å, β = 113.41(5)°. The calculated and observed densities are 1.645 and 1.642(5) respectively. Intensity data were collected on a Syntex [Formula: see text] diffractometer and a full matrix least squares refinement on 3010 observed reflections leads to a conventional R = 0.0660. The structure can be considered as a roughly square planar arrangement of ligands around the rhodium atom composed of two β-ketoenolate oxygen atoms (Rh—O, 2.037(5) and 2.025(5) Å ) and the centers of the two ethylenic groups. The Rh—C distances for the olefin group attached to the two carbomethoxo groups, 2.117(8), 2.108(8) Å, appear to be slightly larger than those for the other olefinic group, 2.087(7), 2.082(6), and the corresponding C=C distances of 1.375(10) and 1.410(9) Å are different at the 95% confidence level.

The 1:1 complex of palladium(II) chloride with 2-(2-methyl-3-phenyl-isoxazolidin-5-yl)- pyridine (L) has been prepared and studied by means of elemental analysis, 1H NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction (monoclinic, space group P21/n with parameters: a = 8.141(2), b = 9.750(2),c = 20.691(6)Å ,β = 95.62(3)°,V = 1634.4(7)Å3 ,Z = 4 ;R1= 0.054 and wR2= 0.144 for 3352 unique reflections). A square-planar coordination polyhedron has been established for the palladium atom both in acetone solution and in the solid state. The organic ligand is coordinated toometal in a bidentate manner via nitrogen atoms of the pyridine substituent (Pd-N(2) 2.125(3) Å) and the isoxazolidine heterocycle (Pd-N(l) 2.102(3) Å). The other two coordination positions of palladium are occupied by chlorine atoms (Pd-Cl(l) 2.321(1) and Pd-Cl(2) 2.333(1) Å). The six-membered chelate ring formed by Pd, N(2), C(4), C(1), 0(1) and N (1) possesses a “twist-tub” conformation. The isoxazolidine cycle has an envelope conformation with an equatorial orientation of the methyl group.

A new synthesis for 2-chloro-1,3,5-trimethyl-4,6-dioxo-1,3,5,2λ3-triazaphosphinane (1) is described. Chlorine-fluorine exchange in 1 by means of sodium fluoride in acetonitrile in the presence of catalytic amounts of a crown ether furnished 2-fluoro-1,3,5-trimethyl-4,6-dioxo-1,3,5,2λ3-triazaphosphinane (2). The synthesis of the bromine and iodine analogues, 3 and 4, by metathesis of 1 with the appropriate trimethylsilyl halides, Me3SiBr and Me3SiI, respectively, is also described. The syntheses of an iron(0)tetracarbonyl complex (5) and of a dichloroplatinum( II) complex (6) are reported. A single crystal X-ray diffraction study was conducted on 6. [P21/c, a = 1161.3(3), b = 1423.2(3), c = 1247.7(3) pm, β = 109.42(2)°, R = 0.028], There are deviations from ideal square planar geometry at platinum. The heterocycles display a flattened boat conformation. A Staudinger reaction of 1 with Me3SiN3 led to the formation of a substituted cyclotriphosphazene.

A new type of 3,3'-(2-hydroxypropane-1,3-diyl) bis(azan-1-yl-1-ylidene)bis(2-(4-alkoxy phenyl)prop-1-en-1-ol) and their copper complexes were prepared and mesomorphic properties characterized. The mesomorphic properties of these copper complexes were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), polarized optical microscopy (POM) and powder X-ray diffraction. X-ray structural crystallographic analysis showed that these bimetallic compounds have two copper centers coordinated with central square planar geometry. These molecules all have total two 1a or five alkoxy sidechains 1b appended around the central core. The mesomorphic behavior exhibited was found to be dependent on the sidechain density. All compounds in 1a exhibited smectic mesophases, however, compounds in 1b exhibited hexagonal columnar phases (Colh), which were characterized by optical textures and confirmed by powder x-ray diffraction.

Three types of complexes, trans-[Pt(LH)2Cl2], [Pt(L)2], and [Pt(LH)2(SR)2] where LH = NH2—C(CH3)2(CH2OH) and NH2—C(CH2OH)3 and L are the deprotonated ligands, have been synthesized.The crystal structure of trans-[Pt(NH2—C(CH3)2CH2OH)2Cl2] has been determined by X-ray diffraction methods. The crystals are monoclinic, space group P21/c, with a = 6,282(3), b = 20,901(13), c = 10,769(10) Å, β = 92,64(6)°, and Z = 4. The structure was refined by full-matrix least-squares analysis to a conventional R factor of 0.049 and Rw = 0.042. The coordination around the platinum atom is square planar. The Pt—Cl distances are 2.306(2) and 2.309(3) Å and the Pt—N bonds are 2.060(8) and 2.071 (7) Å. The hydroxyl oxygen atoms are disordered; the disorder is different for each organic ligand. The structure is stabilized by an extensive hydrogen bonding system.

Different salts of the 2-phenyl-1,10-phenanthrolin-1-ium cation, (pnpH)+, are obtained by reacting 2-phenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (pnp), C18H12N2, (I), with a variety of anions, such as hexafluoridophosphate, C18H13N2+·PF6−, (II), trifluoromethanesulfonate, C18H13N2+·CF3SO3−, (III), tetrachloridoaurate, (C18H13N2)[AuCl4], (IV), and bromide (as the dihydrate), C18H13N2+·Br−·2H2O, (V). Compound (I) crystallizes withZ′ = 2, with both independent molecules adopting a coplanar conformation. In (II)–(IV), a hydrogen bond exists between the cation and anion, while one of the lattice water molecules serves as a hydrogen-bonded bridge between the cation and anion in (V). Reaction of (I) with HAuCl4gives the salt complex (IV); however, reaction with KAuCl4produces the monodentate complex trichlorido(2-phenyl-1,10-phenanthroline-κN10)gold(III), [AuCl3(C18H12N2)], (VI). Dichlorido(2-phenyl-1,10-phenanthroline-κ2N,N′)copper(II), [CuCl2(C18H12N2)], (VII), results from the reaction of CuCl2·2H2O and (I), in which the CuIIcenter adopts a tetrahedrally distorted square-planar geometry. The pendent phenyl ring twists to a bisecting position relative to the phenanthroline plane. The square-planar PdIIcomplex, bromido[2-(phenanthrolin-2-yl)phenyl-κ3C1,N,N′]palladium(II), [PdBr(C18H11N2)], (VIII), is obtained from the reaction of (I) with [PdCl2(cycloocta-1,5-diene)], followed by addition of bromine. A coplanar geometry for the pendent ring is adopted as a result of the tridentate bonding motif.

Reaction of "cyclamphosphorane" (cyclamPH) with [Pt2Cl4(PEt3)2] yields [PtCl(PEt3)(cyclamPH)]Cl. The complex crystallizes as a dichloromethane solvate in the monoclinic space group P21/n, with a = 13.877(3), b = 23.231(7), c = 8.295(2)Å, β = 91.86(4)°, and an X-ray diffraction study shows square planar platinum coordination in which the labile proton of cyclamPH has transferred from phosphorus to nitrogen and the ligand is attached via simple [Formula: see text] chelation. The phosphorus is trans to chlorine in the platinum coordination plane.The corresponding product, trans-[PtCl2(PEt3)(cyclenPH2)]Cl, derived from reaction of "cyclenphosphorane" (cyclenPH) with [Pt2Cl4(PEt3)2], is shown by NMR studies to have a quite different structure in which the ligand is protonated at two nitrogen sites but not at phosphorus. The phosphorus is pentacoordinate with four attachments to nitrogen atoms and one to platinum. The two chlorine atoms are mutually trans in the platinum coordination plane. Keywords: crystal structure, cyclenphosphorane reaction, cyclamphosphorane reaction, X-ray diffraction.
