Recrystallization of silver pentacyanocyclopentadienide Ag[C5(CN)5] from N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) gives the polymeric 1:1 complex [Ag{C5(CN)5}(DMF)] (1). The Ag+ cation is coordinated by three N atoms of three different [C5(CN)5]- anions and two O atoms of two DMF molecules. Each [C5(CN)5]- is coordinated via three neighboring CN groups to three different Ag+ ions, while each DMF molecule bridges two Ag+ ions via its O atom. Treatment of NiCl2 6H2O, CoCl2 6H2O or ZnCl2 with Ag[C5(CN)5] in DMF gives the DMF complexes [M(DMF)6][C5(CN)5]2 (M=Ni, 2; Co, 3; Zn, 4). The complexes 2 and 3 were characterized by X-ray diffraction and show octahedral [M(DMF)6]2+ cations with O-coordinated DMF molecules. The [C5(CN)5]- anions show ideal pentagonal symmetry

Abstract The transsilylation reaction between allyltrichlorosilane and 8-trimethylsiloxyquinoline in the molar ratio 1 : 3 yields the hexacoordinated silicon tris-chelate (oxinate)2Si(adho) (“oxinate” = 8- oxyquinolinate, “adho” = di-anion of 2-allyl-1,2-dihydro-8-oxyquinoline) comprising an SiO3N3 skeleton. The identity of this complex was established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and 29Si CP=MAS NMR spectroscopy of its chloroform solvate. Benzyltrichlorosilane and dibenzyldichlorosilane, comprising benzyl (Bn) as an “aromatically stabilized allyl moiety” did not undergo such rearrangement. Instead, the complexes (oxinate)2SiBnCl and (oxinate)2SiBn2 were obtained even upon using three molar equivalents of 8-trimethylsiloxyquinoline. We determined the crystal structure of a non-disordered bis-chelate (oxinate)2SiBnCl with Sibound hydrocarbyl and halogen substituents (the previously published (oxinate)2SiMeCl was disordered with alternative Me=Cl site occupancies). (Oxinate)2SiBnCl exhibits surprisingly poor response of the N-Si bonds to the different trans-disposed Si-X (X=Bn, Cl) bonds. For comparison and deeper insights into the coordination chemistry of oxinato silicon complexes with halide substituents, we determined the crystal structures of (oxinate)2SiPhCl·CHCl3, (oxinate)2SiCl2, (oxinate)2SiF2·1.5(CHCl3), and (8-oxyquinaldinate)2SiF2. Furthermore, the crystal structures of BnSiCl3 and Bn2SiCl2 (and its dibromo analog) are reported. The influence of the Si-C-C-C torsion angles of the benzyl group on the 29Si NMR shift of benzylsilanes (which is noticeably upfield with respect to analogous methyl silanes) was analyzed by quantum-chemical calculations.

The rac-lipoato (lip-) complexes [Zn(lip)2(H2O)2] (1) and [Cd(lip)2(H2O)2] (2) were obtained in good yields from solutions of sodium lipoate and the respective metal nitrate in methanol/water. 1 and 2 form pale yellow, moderately light-sensitive crystals.Both compounds were structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. 1: C2/c, a = 39.958(6), b = 5.360(1), c = 10.794(1) Å, β = 95.76(1)°, Z = 4, wR2 = 0.150 (all data). 2: C2/c, a = 38.200(2), b = 5.472(1), c = 11.179(1) Å, β = 92.72(1)°, Z = 4, wR2 = 0.090 (all data). The metal ions are hexacoordinated by the oxygen atoms of two chelating carboxylate ligands and two aqua ligands. The crystal structures are very similar but not isotypic. They are layer structures, in which the complexes within a layer are interconnected by a network of hydrogen bonds. Adjacent layers have contacts via the 1,2-dithiolanyl rings of their lipoato ligands.Crystals of 1 and 2 decompose on exposure to visible light or ultraviolet radiation in the 280-390 nm range. Photopolymerization by formation of intermolecular S-S bonds is very probably involved. Furthermore, the infrared spectra reveal the transformation of COO- into COOH groups

The use of high temperature special ceramics which are usually complex materials based on oxides, nitrides, carbides and borides of silicon and aluminum, is critically dependent on their thermomechanical and other physical properties. The investigations of the phase diagrams, crystal structures and microstructural features are essential for better understanding of the macro-properties. Phase diagrams and crystal structures have been studied mainly by X-ray diffraction (XRD). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) has contributed to this field to a very limited extent; it has been used more extensively in the study of microstructure, phase transformations and lattice defects. Often only TEM can give solutions to numerous problems in the above fields, since the various phases exist in extremely fine grains and subgrain structures; single crystals of appreciable size are often not available. Examples with some of our experimental results from two multicomponent systems are presented here. The standard ion thinning technique was used for the preparation of thin foil samples, which were then investigated with JEOL 200A and Siemens ELMISKOP 102 (for the lattice resolution work) electron microscopes.

Single crystals of two novel shchurovskyite-related compounds, K2Cu[Cu3O]2(PO4)4 (1) and K2.35Cu0.825[Cu3O]2(PO4)4 (2), were synthesized by crystallization from gaseous phase and structurally characterized using single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The crystal structures of both compounds are based upon similar Cu-based layers, formed by rods of the [O2Cu6] dimers of oxocentered (OCu4) tetrahedra. The topologies of the layers show both similarities and differences from the shchurovskyite-type layers. The layers are connected in different fashions via additional Cu atoms located in the interlayer, in contrast to shchurovskyite, where the layers are linked by Ca2+ cations. The structures of the shchurovskyite family are characterized using information-based structural complexity measures, which demonstrate that the crystal structure of 1 is the simplest one, whereas that of 2 is the most complex in the family.

A straightforward method for the preparation of trisphosphinite ligands in one step, using only commercially available reagents (1,1,1-tris(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethane and chlorophosphines) is described. We have made use of this approach to prepare a small family of four trisphosphinite ligands of formula [CH3C{(C6H4OR2)3], where R stands for Ph (1a), Xyl (1b, Xyl = 2,6-Me2-C6H3), iPr (1c), and Cy (1d). These polyfunctional phosphinites allowed us to investigate their coordination chemistry towards a range of late transition metal precursors. As such, we report here the isolation and full characterization of a number of Au(I), Ag(I), Cu(I), Ir(III), Rh(III) and Ru(II) homotrimetallic complexes, including the structural characterization by X-ray diffraction studies of six of these compounds. We have observed that the flexibility of these trisphosphinites enables a variety of conformations for the different trimetallic species.

The P,N-substituted ferrocene [Fe{η5-C5H4-P(S)Ph2}(η5-C5H4-NHCH2tBu)] was prepared in six steps from the bromo derivative [Fe{η5-C5H4-PPh2}(η5-C5H4-Br)]. Its reductive desulfurisation with Raney nickel afforded the corresponding phosphino-substituted derivative [Fe(η5-C5H4- PPh2)(η5-C5H4-NHCH2tBu)]. Both compounds have been structurally characterised by singlecrystal X-ray diffraction studies.
