Synthesis of some 4-substituted-2-(o-halogenophenyl)-1,2,3-triazoles

Mesoaldehyde 1,3-dioxime was treated with either 2,4,6-trichlorophenyl- (a), o-fluorophenyl- (b), or o-bromophenyl- (c) hydrazine to give the corresponding mesoaldehyde 1,3-dioxime-2-halogenophenylhydrazones (1a,b,c). The latter were O-acetylated with acetic anhydride, and cyclized to triazole 4-oximes (3b, c) or triazole 4-O-acetyloximes ( 6a,b,c ) with cesium carbonate, then converted to nitriles ( 7a,b,c ) by refluxing with acetic anhydride followed by pyrolysis, or to aldehydes ( 4a,b,c ) by hydrolysis. The nitriles ( 7a,b,c ) were also converted to acids ( 9a,b,c ), esters ( 10a,b,c ), amides ( 8a,c ), an alcohol (11a), and an amine ( 12a ). In addition, tetrazoles of two types were prepared. The first ( 13d,e ) were obtained from the acid chlorides by the action of 5-aminotetrazole, whereas the second ( 14f ) was produced from the respective nitrile by the action of ammonium azide.     

Umsetzung von Diazoessigsäure-ethylester mit 1,3-Thiazol-5(4H)-thionen

Reaction of Ethyl Diazoacetate with 1,3-Thiazole-5(4H)-thiones Reaction of ethyl diazoacetate ( 2a ) and 1,3-thiazole-5(4H)-thiones 1a,b in Et₂O at room temperature leads to a complex mixture of the products 5–9 (Scheme 2). Without solvent, 1a and 2a react to give 10a in addition to 5a–9a . In Et₂O in the presence of aniline, reaction of 1a,b with 2a affords the ethyl 1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-carboxylate 10a and 10b , respectively, as major products. The structures of the unexpected products 6a, 7a , and 10a have been established by X-ray crystallography. Ethyl 4H-1,3-thiazine-carboxylate 8b was transformed into ethyl 7H-thieno[2,3-e][1,3]thiazine-carboxylate 11 (Scheme 3) by treatment with aqueous NaOH or during chromatography. The structure of the latter has also been established by X-ray crystallography. In the presence of thiols and alcohols, the reaction of 1a and 2a yields mainly adducts of type 12 (Scheme 4), compounds 5a,7a , and 9a being by-products (Table 1). Reaction mechanisms for the formation of the isolated products are delineated in Schemes 4–7: the primary cycloadduct 3 of the diazo compound and the C?S bond of 1 undergoes a base-catalyzed ring opening of the 1,3-thiazole-ring to give 10 . In the absence of a base, elimination of N₂ yields the thiocarbonyl ylide A ′, which is trapped by nucleophiles to give 12 . Trapping of A ′, by H₂O yields 1,3-thiazole-5(4H)-one 9 and ethyl mercaptoacetate, which is also a trapping agent for A ′, yielding the diester 7 . The formation of products 6 and 8 can be explained again via trapping of thiocarbonyl ylide A ′, either by thiirane C (Scheme 6) or by 2a (Scheme 7). The latter adduct F yields 8 via a Demjanoff-Tiffeneau-type ring expansion of a 1,3-thiazole to give the 1,3-thiazine.     

Carbenoid Reactions of Dimethyl Diazomalonate with Aromatic Thioketones and 1,3-Thiazole-5(4H)-thiones

Dimethyl diazomalonate ( 4 ) and thiobenzophenone ( 2a ) do not react in toluene even after warming to 50°. After addition of catalytic amounts of Rh₂(OAc)₄, a smooth reaction under N₂ evolution afforded a mixture of thiiranedicarboxylate 5 and (diphenylmethylidene)malonate 6 (Scheme 2). A reaction mechanism via an intermediate ‘thiocarbonyl ylide’ 7 , formed by the addition of the carbenoid species 8 to the S-atom of 2a , is plausible. Similar reactions were carried out with 9H-xanthene-9-thione ( 2b ), 9H-thioxanthene-9-thione ( 2c , Scheme 4), and 1,3-thiazole-5(4H)-thione 18 (Scheme 6). In the cases of 2b and 2c , spirocyclic 1,3-dithiolanetetracarboxylates 14a and 14b , respectively, were obtained as the third product. Reaction mechanisms for their formation are proposed in Scheme 5: S-transfer from intermediate thiirane 12 to the carbenoid species yielded thioxomalonate 15 which underwent a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with ‘thiocarbonyl ylide’ 16 . An alternative is the formation of ‘thiocarbonyl ylide’ 17 via carbene addition to 15 , followed by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with 2b and 2c , respectively.     

Neue Oxocuprate (I). Über Cs3Cu5O4, Rb2KCu5O4, RbK2Cu5O4 und K3Cu5O4

The colour of the powders becomes lighter according to the sequence showed above. K₃Cu₅O₄ shows pale yellow. The Madelung Part of Lattice Energy, MAPLE, is calculated and discussed.     

Direct introduction of heterocyclic residues into 1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)ones

3-Aryl-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 1a-c react with indoles 2a-c in trifluoroacetic acid/chloroform or in boiling butanol or acetic acid to give 3-aryl-6-(indolyl-3)-1,6-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 3a-g . Oxidation of the dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 3a-e afforded 6-(indolyl-3)-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 4a-e , products of nucleophilic substitution of hydrogen in 1a-c . Refluxing 1b with N-methylpyrrote 5b in butanol for an extended time resulted in the formation of 3-(4-chlorophenyl)-6-(1-meuiylpyrrolyl-2)-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-one 4h. The reaction of 1a-c with indoles 2a-c , pyrroles 5a,b , 1,3-dimethyl-2-phenylpyrazol-4-one (8) and aminothiazoles 9a,b in acetic anhydride affords the 1-acetyl-3-aryl-6-hetaryl-1,6-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 6a-s . Reaction of 1a-c with N-methyl-pyrrole 5b in acetic anhydride gives beside the 1:1 addition products 6h-k also the 2:1 addition products 7a-c .     

Synthesis,characterization and studies of new 3‐benzyl‐4H‐1,2,4‐triazole‐5‐thiol and thiazolo[3,2‐b][1,2,4]triazole‐5(6H)‐one heterocycles

3‐Benzyl‐4‐phenyl‐1,2,4‐triazole‐5‐thiol ( 1 ) was synthesized and used as starting material for preparation of 1,2,4‐triazole bearing substituted thiosemicarbazides moiety ( 4a‐d ) in high yields. The thiosemicarbazides 4a‐d were cyclized in basic medium to give two triazole rings linked by thiomethylene group ( 5a‐d ), while cyclization of thiosemicarbazides 4a‐d with chloroacetyl chloride in the presence of CHCl₃ and K₂CO₃ afforded the thiazolidinone derivatives 6a‐d . The reaction of thiosemicarbazides 4a‐c with phenacyl bromide in the presence of EtOH and fused CH₃COONa gave the corresponding thiazoline ring systems 7a‐c . Condensation of the 3‐benzyl‐1,2,4‐triazole‐5(1H)‐thiol ( 1 ) with chloroacetic acid and aromatic aldehydes ( 8a‐ g) in boiling acetic acid/acetic anhydride mixture in the presence of fused sodium acetate gave one single isomer only, which might be 9a‐g or 10a‐g . Upon application of Micheal addition reaction on compounds 9a‐e with cyclic secondary amines such as piperidine or morpholine the 2‐benzyl‐6‐(α‐amino‐aryl/methyl)‐1,3‐thiazolo[3,2‐ b][1,2,4]‐triazol‐5‐ols ( 11a‐j ) were obtained in good yields The structure of all new compounds were determined using both spectral and elemental analyses.

On a New Copper Tin Borate Oxide with Isolated BO₃ Units: Cu₅Sn(BO₃)₂O₄ Single Crystals of the new compound Cu₅Sn(BO₃)₂O₄ were obtained by a B₂O₃ fluxtechnique. They crystallize in a monoclinic distorted variant of a Ludwigite structure with a partly ordered metal distribution. X-ray investigations on single crystals led to the space group C–P2₁/c (No. 14); a = 6.3526(7); b = 9.502(1); c = 12.100(9) Å; β = 93.30(3)°; Z = 4. All metal-sites are distorted octahedraly coordinated by oxygen-ions. The structure contains BO₃-units and oxygen which is not coordinated to boron.     

A NOVEL SYNTHESIS OF 2-SUBSTITUTED-4H-THIENO [2,3-d][1,3] OXAZIN-4-ONE AND 2,3-DISUBSTITUTED THIENO [2,3-d]PYRIMIDIN-4(3H)-ONE DERIVATIVES

Abstract

The synthesis of acetic 2-{[1-methyl-2-(4-oxo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-benzo [4,5]-thieno [2,3-d] [1,3-oxazin-2-yl)ethylidene]amino}-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrohenzo[b]thiophene ?3-carboxylic acid anhydride 5 and 2-(oxopropyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-benzo-[4,5] thieno[2,3-d][1,3]oxazin-4-one 7, has been achieved in three steps from ethyl 2-amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo(b]thiophene-3-carboxlate 1 via the reaction with ethyl acetoacetate followed by hydrolysis and acetic anhydride-induced cyclization. The 2-substituent in compound 5 has two functional groups i.e. active methylene and acid anhydride which are suitably located for intramolecular transformation. Thermal and/or base catalyzed intramolecular cyclization of 5 afforded 2-(4-acetoxy-(hydroxyl)-2-methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo[4,5] thieno[2,3-b]pyridin-3-yl)-5,6,7,8- tetrahydro-4H-benzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-d] [1,3]oxazin-4-one 10 and 9 respectively. Treatment of 5 with hydrazine hydrate, aromatic and/or heterocyclic amines induced the same intramolecular cyclization with a concomitant oxazine-pyrimidine interconversion to give 3-amino(aryl or heteryl)-2-(4-hydroxy-5,6,7,8-tetrdhydrobenzo-[4,5]thieno[2,3-b]pyridin-3-yl)-3,4,5,6,7,8-hexahydrobenzo[4,5] thieno[2,3-d] pyrimid in-4-one 11–14 respectively.     

The regiospecific synthesis of N-substituted pyrazoles. I. 1- and 2-substituted indeno[1,2-c]pyrazol-4(1H)-ones

The reaction of the enaminoketones ( 2 or 5 ) of 2-acyl-1,3-indandiones with unsymmetrical hydrazines results in the regiospecific synthesis of 1,3- or 2,3-disubstituted indeno[1,2-c]pyrazol-4(1H)-ones ( 4 or 7 ). The synthesis of the enaminoketones ( 2 or 5 ) is accomplished by way of amine addition to the 2-acyl-1,3-indandiones 8a-c or by reduction of the indenoisoxazole 9 . The structural assignment of the isomeric indenopyrazoles 4 and 7 is based upon ¹H-nmr chemical shifts.     

Ho2Te4O11 und Ho2Te5O13: Zwei tellurdioxidreiche Oxotellurate(IV) des dreiwertigen Holmiums

Ho₂Te₄O₁₁ and Ho₂Te₅O₁₃: Two Telluriumdioxide‐rich Oxotellurates(IV) of Trivalent Holmium Ho₂Te₄O₁₁ (monoclinic, C2/c; a = 1240.73(8), b = 511.21(3), c = 1605.84(9) pm, β = 106.142(7)°; Z = 4) and Ho₂Te₅O₁₃ (triclinic, P1; a = 695.67(5), b = 862.64(6), c = 1057.52(7) pm, α = 89.057(6), β = 86.825(6), γ = 75.056(6)°; Z = 2) are obtained by the reaction of holmium sesquioxide with tellurium dioxide in appropriate molar ratios (Ho₂O₃ : TeO₂ = 1 : 4 and 1 : 5, respectively) in evacuated silica tubes within eight days at 800 °C. The application of cesium chloride (CsCl) as flux in about five times molar excess secures fast and complete reactions to the single‐crystalline products aimed at. In the crystal structure of Ho₂Te₄O₁₁ [HoO₈] polyhedra are connected via oxygen edges thereby building up a network {[Ho₂O₁₀]^14–} (001). On the other hand, the crystal structure of Ho₂Te₅O₁₃ exhibits oxygen‐linked [(Ho1)O₈] and [(Ho2)O₇] polyhedra, which form ribbons {[(Ho1)₂(Ho2)₂O₂₀]^28–} running along [100]. Common to both structures, however, is the stereochemical activity of the non‐bonding electron pairs (“lone pairs”) of all the of the Te⁴⁺ cations (Te1 and Te2 in Ho₂Te₄O₁₁, Te1–Te5 in Ho₂Te₅O₁₃) causing ψ¹‐polyhedral figures of coordination with 3 + 1, 4 and 3 + 2 oxygen atoms, respectively, around the central atoms.     

Reactions of N- and C-alkenylanilines: IX. Synthesis, oxidation, and nitration of some 7-methyl-1,3a,4,8b-tetrahydrocyclopenta[b]indoles

Heating of 4-acyl-3-iodo-7-methyl-1,2,3,3a,4,8b-hexahydrocyclopenta[b]indoles in piperidine gave 4-acyl-7-methyl-1,3a,4,8b-tetrahydrocyclopenta[b]indoles which were oxidized with KMnO4 to obtain the corresponding 4-acyl-7-methyl-1,2,3,3a,4,8b-hexahydrocyclopenta[b]indole-1,2-diols. Oxidation of 4-acyl-7-methyl-1,3a,4,8b-tetrahydrocyclopenta[b]indoles at the olefinic double bond with hydrogen peroxide in acetonitrile in the presence of formic acid afforded stereoisomeric epoxides with cis and trans orientation of the nitrogen-containing and oxirane rings. Nitration with a mixture of ammonium nitrate and trifluoroacetic anhydride produced 5-nitro derivatives. The structure of 1-{(1aR*,1bR*,6bS*,7aS*)-5-methyl-1a,1b,2,6b,7,7ahexahydrooxireno[4,5]cyclopenta[1,2-b]indol-2-yl}ethanone was determined by X-ray analysis.     

5-Cyano-6-aryluracil and 2-thiouracil derivatives as potential chemotherapeutic agents. IV

A series of 5-cyano-6-aryluracils and 2-thiouracils 1a-h has been prepared and alkylated to 1,3-dialkyluracils 2a-d and 2-alkylthiouracils, 3, 4 and 6 , by electrophilic substitution with alkyl halides. Reaction of 1b with dibromoethane and 1,3-dibromopropane gave the corresponding bicyclic products, 7-aryl-6-cyano-2,3-dihydrothiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-ones 5a,b and 8-aryl-7-cyano-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrimido[2,3-b][1,3]thiazin-6-ones 5c-g . Nucleophilic substitution on 6 with hydrazine led to 7 which on refluxing with formic acid gave 5-aryl-6-cyano-8-methyl-s-triazolo[3,4-b]pyrimidin-7-ones ( 9 ), while with acetic and propionic acids only 2-acylhydrazino-3-methyl-4-oxo-5-cyano-6-arylpyrimidines 8a,b were isolated. The hydrazine 7 undergoes cyclization with acetylacetone and methyl dimethylmercaptoacrylate providing 2-(pyrazol-1-yl)-3-methyl-4-oxo-5-cyano-6-substituted pyrimidines 10 , and 11 . Some of the compounds were screened for antibacterial-, antifungal- and antiviral activities and a few of them showed significant chemotherapeutical activities.     

Zwei neue Verbindungen mit Zink in tetragonal pyramidaler Koordination: BaZnDy2O5 und Ba1,25ZnHo2O5,25 (Ba5Zn4Ho8O21)

New Compounds with Zinc in Square Pyramidal Coordination: BaZnDy₂O₅ and Ba_1.25ZnHo₂O_5.25 (Ba₅Zn₄Ho₈O₂₁). Single crystals of (I): BaZnDy₂O₅ and (II): Ba₅Zn₄Ho₈O₂₁ were prepared by high temperature reactions and investigated by X-ray technique. (I) belongs to the BaCuLn₂O₅ type, space group D-Pbnm; a = 7.084; b = 12.368; c = 5.728 Å, Z = 4. (II) is isotypic to Ba₅Mn₄Ln₈O₂₁, space group C-I4/m; a = 13.779; c = 5.707 Å, Z = 2. The two different structure types are caused by the small difference in the composition of 0.25 BaO. Analogies and differences will be discussed. In addition the lattice constants of powder samples of Ba₅Zn₄Ln₈O₂₁ (Ln = Eu, Gd, Dy, Ho, Er and Y) are given.

Coordination Chemistry of 1,3-Dithiole-2-selone-4,5-diselenolate (dsise) and 1,3-Dithiole-2-selone-4,5-dithiolate (dmise). Crystal and Molecular Structure of Tetrabutylammonium bis(1,3-dithiole-2-selone-4,5-diselenolato)nickelate(II) and -(III), [(n-C₄H₉)₄N]₂[Ni(dsise)₂ and (n-C₄H₉)₄[Ni(dsise)₂] Syntheses and properties of metal(II) and metal(III) bis-chelates of 1,3-dithiole-2-selone-4,5-diselenolate (dsise), of the general type (Bu₄N)_n)M(dsise)₂] (n =2 : M = Zn, Cd, Hg, Cu, Ni, Pd; n = 1: M = Ni, Au) are reported and compared with chelates of the isologue 1,3-dichalcogenole-2-chalcogenoe-4,5-dichalcogenolate (i. r., ¹³C-n. m. r., e. p. r., cyclovoltammetric data).

Hetero-Diels-Alder-Reaktion mit 1,3-Thiazol-5(4H)-thionen

Hetro-Diels-Alder Reaction with 1,3-Thiazol-5(4H)-thiones On heating in toluene to 180° and on treatment with BF₃·Et₂O in CH₂Cl₂ room temperature, 1,3-dienes react with the C?S group of 1,3-thiazol-5(4H)-thiones 1 in a reversible Diels-Alder reaction to give spiro[4.5]-heterocycles of type 6. A 1:1 mixture of two regioisomeric cycloadducts is formed in the thermal reaction with 2-methylbuta-1,3-diene (isoprene, 5b ). In contrast, the formation of one regioisomer is strongly preferred in the BF₃-catalyzed reaction. Frontier-orbital control as well as steric factors seem to be responsible for the observed regioselectivity. BF₃-Catalyzed, cyclic 1,3-dienes and 1 also undergo a smooth Diels-Alder reaction. Whereas cyclohexa-1,3-diene ( 5c ) reacts with 1a and 1b to give a single isomer (presumably the ‘exo’-adduct), cyclopenta-1,3-diene ( 5d ) leads to a ca. 3:1 mixture of ‘exo’-and ‘endo’-isomer.     

Pr5F[SiO4]2[SeO3]3: Another Complex Fluoride Oxosilicate Oxoselenate(IV)

During attempts to synthesize lanthanoid(III) fluoride oxoselenates(IV) with the simple composition MF[SeO₃], not only Pr₃F[SeO₃]₄, but also Pr₅F[SiO₄]₂[SeO₃]₃ appeared as pale green crystalline by‐products in the case of praseodymium. Pr₅F[SiO₄]₂[SeO₃]₃ crystallizes triclinically in space group P$\bar{1}$ (no. 2) with a = 701.14(5), b = 982.68(7), c = 1286.79(9) pm, α = 70.552(3), β = 76.904(3), γ = 69.417(3)° and Z = 2. The five crystallographically different Pr³⁺ cations on the general positions 2i show coordination numbers of eight and nine. [(Pr1)O₈]^13– and [(Pr2)O₈]^13– polyhedra are connected to$\bar{1}$ {[(Pr1, 2)₂O₁₂]^18–} chains along the [100] direction. [(Pr3)O₇F]^12–, [(Pr4)O₈F]^14– and [(Pr4)O₈F]^14– polyhedra generate [F(Pr3, 4, 5)₃O₁₉]^30– units about their central F^– anion in triangular Pr³⁺ coordination. These units form $\bar{1}$ {[F(Pr3, 4, 5)₃O₁₆]^24–} strands, again running parallel to [100]. Their alternating connection with the $\bar{1}$ {[(Pr1, 2)₂O₁₂]^18–} chains results in $\bar{1}$ {[Pr₅O₂₀F]^26–} sheets parallel to the (001) plane. Like in the already known related compound Er₃F[SiO₄][SeO₃]₂, a three‐dimensional network $\bar{1}$ {[Pr₅O₁₇F]^20–} is achieved without the contribution of both the tetravalent silicon and selenium components. However, two Si⁴⁺ and three Se⁴⁺ cations forming tetrahedral [SiO₄]^4– and ψ¹‐tetrahedral [SeO₃]^2– units with all O^2– anions guarantee the charge balance. The formation of Pr₅F[SiO₄]₂[SeO₃]₃ was observed when praseodymium sesquioxide (Pr₂O₃: in‐situ produced from Pr and Pr₆O₁₁ in a molar ratio of ³/₁₁:⁴/₁₁),praseodymium trifluoride (PrF₃) and selenium dioxide (SeO₂) in 1:1:3 molar ratios were reacted with CsBr as fluxing agent for five days at 750 °C in evacuated fused silica (SiO₂) ampoules.     

Ring closure reaction of 4-(2-hydroxyanilino)-2-phenyl-5-pyrimidinecarboxylic acid with acetic anhydride. Synthesis of pyrimido[5,4-c] [1,5]benzoxazepin-5(11H)ones

Syntheses of 11-acety1-2-phenylpyrimido[5,4-c][1,5]benzoxazepin-5(11H)one ( 16a ) and analogs ( 16b,c, 22 ) were described. The reaction of 4-chloro-2-phenyl-5-pyrimidinecarboxylic acid ethyl ester ( 7 ) with 2-aminophenol afforded 4-(2-hydroxyanilino)-2-phenyl-5-pyrimidine-carboxylic acid ethyl ester ( 8a ). The latter was also prepared by catalytic reduction of 4-(2-nitrophenoxy)-2-phenyl-5-pyrimidinecarboxylic acid ethyl ester ( 9 ), which was obtained from 7 and 2-nitrophenol. Involvement of 4-(2-aminophenoxy)-2-phenyl-5-pyrimidinecarboxylic acid ethyl ester ( 12a ) in this reduction as an intermediate was demonstrated by an independent synthesis of 12a and its subsequent rearrangement to 8a. Hydrolysis of 8a or 12a gave 4-(2-hydroxyanilino)-2-phenyl-5-pyrimidinecarboxylic acid ( 15a ). Reaction of 15a with acetic anhydride afforded 16a , the first member of a novel ring system, the pyrimido[5,4- c ][1,5]-benzoxazepin. Additional examples ( 16b,c ) were prepared similarly. The corresponding 11-ethyl derivative ( 22 ) was prepared in similar fashion, starting with 7 and 2-ethylaminophenol. A possible reaction mechanism for the formation of 16a-c from 15a-c and acetic anhydride was discussed.     

A novel convenient synthesis of 5-acyl-1,2-dihydropyrimidin-2-ones via 4-trichloromethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidin-2-ones

A novel four-step methodology for the synthesis of 5-acyl-1,2-dihydropyrimidin-2-ones has been developed. The reaction of readily available N-[(1-acetoxy-2,2,2-trichloro)ethyl]ureas with Na-enolates of 1,3-diketones or β-oxoesters followed by heterocyclization-dehydration of the oxoalkylureas formed gave 5-acyl-4-trichloromethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidin-2-ones. The latter, in the presence of NaH, eliminate CHCl₃ to give the target compounds.     

Ein Wechsel des Strukturtyps in den Oxiden BaCoGd2O5, BaCoDy2O5 und BaCoY2O5

A Change of Structure Type in the Oxides BaCoGd₂O₅, BaCoDy₂O₅, and BaCoY₂O₅ (I) BaCoGd₂O₅, (II) BaCoDy₂O₅, and (III) BaCoY₂O₅ were prepared for the first time and examined by single crystal work. (I) and (II) belong to the BaNiLn₂O₅-type. (I): a = 3.770; b = 5.860; c = 11.620 Å; Z = 2; (II): a = 3.755; b = 5.798; c = 11.514 Å; Z = 2; space group D–Immm. (III) crystallizes in the BaCuLn₂O₅-type, space group D–Pnma, a = 12.287; b = 5.713; c = 7.067 Å; Z = 4. The coordination of Co²⁺ changes from (I, II) to (III) from octahedral to tetragonal pyramidal.
