Synthesis and crystal structure of (E)-2-benzyl-1,3-diphenylisothiouronium iodide

In the title molecular salt, C20H19N2S+·I−, prepared by the reaction of 1,3-diphenylthiourea and benzyl iodide, the C—S—C thioether bond angle is 101.66 (9)° and electrons are delocalized over the N+= C—N skeleton. The dihedral angle between the aromatic rings attached to the N atoms is 40.60 (9)°. In the crystal, N—H...I hydrogen bonds link the components into [100] chains.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of New Zn(II) Complex with N-[bis(benzylamino)phosphoryl]-2,2,2-trichloroacetamide

The novel binuclear Zn(II) complex of general formula Zn2(L)4(CH3OH)2 where HL is N-[bis(benzylamino)phosphoryl]-2,2,2-trichloroacetamide has been synthesized from non-aqueous solution and characterized by elemental analysis, FTIR and NMR spectroscopy as well by X-ray single crystal diffraction. This complex represents the third example of binuclear complexes with this ligand within four known for today.

K(Na,K)Na2[Cu2(SO4)4]: a new highly porous anhydrous sulfate and evaluation of possible ion migration pathways

Alkali copper sulfates form a rapidly developing family of inorganics. Herein, we report synthesis and crystal structure, and evaluate possible ion migration pathways for a novel Na-K-Cu anhydrous sulfate, K(Na,K)Na2[Cu2(SO4)4]. The CuO7 and SO4 polyhedra share common vertices and edges to form [Cu2(SO4)4]4− wide ribbons, which link to each other via common oxygen atoms forming the host part of the structure. Four guest alkali sites are occupied by solely K+, mixture of K+ and Na+, and solely Na+, which agrees well with the size of the cavities. The crystal structure of K(Na,K)Na2[Cu2(SO4)4] contains two symmetry-independent Cu sites with [4+1+(2)] coordination environments. The overall coordination polyhedra of Cu2+ can be considered as `octahedra with one split vertex'. A similar coordination mode was observed also in some other multinary copper sulfates, mostly of the mineral world. These coordination modes were reviewed and five types of CuO7 polyhedra are identified. CuO7 polyhedra are almost restricted to copper sulfates and phosphates. It was found that a larger amount of the smaller SO4 2− and PO4 3− anions can cluster around a single Cu2+ cation; in addition, for such relatively small anions, both mono (κ1) and bidentate (κ2) coordination modes to the Cu2+ are possible. The correlation between crystallographic characteristics and bond valence energies showed that the new copper sulfate framework, [Cu2(SO4)4]4−, contains one interconnected path suitable for Na+ mobility at tolerable activation energies and that K(Na,K)Na2[Cu2(SO4)4] can be considered as a potential candidate for novel Na-ion conductors.

Synthesis and crystal structure of bis[μ-N,N-bis(2-aminoethyl)ethane-1,2-diamine]bis[N,N-bis(2-aminoethyl)ethane-1,2-diamine]-μ4-oxido-hexa-μ3-oxido-octa-μ2-oxido-tetraoxidotetranickel(II)hexatantalum(V) nonadecahydrate

Reaction of K8{Ta6O19}·16H2O with [Ni(tren)(H2O)Cl]Cl·H2O in different solvents led to the formation of single crystals of the title compound, [Ni4Ta6O19(C6H18N4)4]·19H2O or {[Ni2(κ4-tren)(μ-κ3-tren)]2Ta6O19}·19H2O (tren is N,N-bis(2-aminoethyl)-1,2-ethanediamine, C6H18N4). In its crystal structure, one Lindqvist-type anion {Ta6O19}8– (point group symmetry \overline{1}) is connected to two NiII cations, with both of them coordinated by one tren ligand into discrete units. Both NiII cations are sixfold coordinated by O atoms of the anion and N atoms of the organic ligand, resulting in slightly distorted [NiON5] octahedra for one and [NiO3N3] octahedra for the other cation. These clusters are linked by intermolecular O—H...O and N—H...O hydrogen bonding involving water molecules into layers parallel to the bc plane. Some of these water molecules are positionally disordered and were refined using a split model. Powder X-ray diffraction revealed that a pure crystalline phase was obtained but that on storage at room-temperature this compound decomposed because of the loss of crystal water molecules.

Synthesis and crystal structure of racemic (R*,R*)-2,2′-(1,4-phenylene)bis(3-phenyl-2,3,5,6-tetrahydro-4H-1,3-thiazin-4-one)

In the racemic title compound, C26H24N2O2S2, one of the thiazine rings shows a twisted boat conformation (Q = 0.743 Å, θ = 92.1°) and the other a half-chair puckering (Q = 0.669 Å, θ = 54.3°). The terminal phenyl rings are almost parallel to each other [dihedral angle 21.71 (10)°]. Both of these rings are orthogonal to the central phenyl ring, subtending a dihedral angle of about 78° in each case. The extended structure is consolidated by C—H...O and C—H...S hydrogen bonds as well as aromatic ring interactions of parallel-displaced and T-type. The molecule has approximate C2 local symmetry but this is not carried over to its three-dimensional structure or the intermolecular interactions.
