Chlorobis[N′‐ethoxycarbonyl‐N‐(4‐methylphenyl)thiourea‐κS]copper(I)

The title complex, chloro­bis{ethyl N‐[(4‐methyl­anilino)­thio­carbonyl]­carbamate‐κS}copper(I), [CuCl(C₁₁H₁₄N₂O₂S)₂], was synthesized by the reaction of cupric chloride with the corresponding thio­urea derivative. The complex has imposed crystallographic m symmetry and the Cu^I coordination environment is trigonal planar, formed by two S atoms and one Cl atom. The formation of intramolecular hydrogen bonds promotes the stability of the complex.     

[N,N′‐Bis(3‐aminopropyl)ethylenediamine‐κ4N,N′,N′′,N′′′](trithiocyanurato‐κ2N,S)zinc(II) ethanol solvate

In the crystal structure of the title compound, [N,N′‐bis(3‐­amino­propyl)­ethyl­enedi­amine‐κ⁴N,N′,N′′,N′′′][1,3,5‐triazine‐2,4,6(1H,3H,5H)‐tri­thionato(2−)‐κ²N,S]­zinc(II) ethanol sol­vate, [Zn(C₈H₂₂N₄)₂(C₃HN₃S₃)]·C₂H₆O, the Zn^II atom is octa­hedrally coordinated by four N atoms [Zn—N = 2.104 (2)–2.203 (2) Å] of a tetradentate N‐donor N,N′‐bis(3‐­amino­propyl)­ethyl­enedi­amine (bapen) ligand and by two S and N atoms [Zn—S = 2.5700 (7) Å and Zn—N = 2.313 (2) Å] of a tri­thio­cyanurate(2−) (ttcH²⁻) dianion bonded as a bidentate ligand in a cis configuration.

In the title compound, {[Zn(C₈H₄O₅)(C₁₂H₈N₂)]·H₂O}_n or {[Zn(OH‐BDC)(phen)]·H₂O}_n (where OH‐H₂BDC is 5‐hydroxy­isophthalic acid and phen is 1,10‐phenanthroline), the Zn atoms are coordinated by two N atoms from the phen ligands and by four O atoms from hydroxy­isophthalate ligands in a highly distorted octahedral geometry, with Zn—O distances in the range 2.042 (4)–2.085 (5) Å and Zn—N distances of 2.133 (5) and 2.137 (5) Å. The {[Zn(OH‐BDC)(phen)]·H₂O}_n infinite zigzag polymer forms a helical chain of [Zn₂(OH‐BDC)₂]_n units. Face‐to‐face π–π interactions (3.60–3.75 Å) occur between two phen rings belonging to the same helical chain. Consolidation of the packing structure is achieved by O—H⋯O hydrogen‐bonding interactions between the carboxyl­ate O atoms, the hydroxyl group and the water mol­ecule, forming two‐dimensional sheets.     

2,3,3′,6‐Tetra‐O‐acetyl‐4,1′,6′‐trichloro‐4,1′,4′,6′‐tetradeoxygalactosucrose

At 160 K, one of the Cl atoms in the furanoid moiety of 3‐O‐acetyl‐1,6‐di­chloro‐1,4,6‐tri­deoxy‐β‐d ‐fructo­furan­osyl 2,3,6‐tri‐O‐acetyl‐4‐chloro‐4‐deoxy‐α‐d ‐galacto­pyran­oside, C₂₀H₂₇­Cl₃O₁₁, is disordered over two orientations, which differ by a rotation of about 107° about the parent C—C bond.

Each of the two fluorene ring systems is virtually planar, with the ring planes intersecting at an angle of 67.58 (5)°. This novel compound has been formed as a side product from the treatment of 9H‐fluorene‐9‐thione with methyl N‐[(benzyl­idene)­phenyl]­glycinate in the presence of LiBr and 1,6‐di­aza­bi­cyclo­[5.4.0]­un­decane.

In its crystal structure, both the pyrimidine and the furan­ose rings are planar and approximately perpendicular [82.1 (4)°]. The value of the torsion angle defining the orientation of the thymine with respect to the joined furane, χ = ?100.8 (4)°, and that of the torsion angle giving the orientation of the hydroxyl group linked to the furane ring, γ = 52.9 (5)°, show that the gly­cosyl­ic link adopts the so‐called high‐anti conformation and the 5′‐hydroxyl group is in the +sc position. The NMPO solvate is linked to the nucleoside through a fairly strong hydrogen bond.

The cation is located on a twofold symmetry axis running through both Ni atoms. The dmaeoxd²⁻ ligands inter­act with each other via C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and π–π inter­actions, which results in an extended chain along the c axis.

The chromanone moiety of one mol­ecule packs into the cavity formed by the p‐chloro­phenyl rings of a second mol­ecule through the formation of C—H?π interactions. The structure is stabilized by weak C—H?O, C—H?Cl and C—H?π interactions.

The crystal structure of the title compound, (C₂H₁₀N₂)[Cr(C₄H₉N₂O₂)₂]₂Cl₄·2H₂O, has been determined by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction studies at 293 and 100 K. The analyses demonstrated that the crystal consists of ethyl­enedi­ammonium dications (which lie about inversion centres), bis­[N‐(2‐amino­ethyl)­glycin­ato]­chromium(III) monocations, Cl^? anions and hydrate water mol­ecules, in a molecular ratio of 1:2:4:2.

The geometry of the bis­[N‐(2‐amino­ethyl)­glycinato]­chromium(III) moiety was found to be trans,cis,cis with respect to the carboxyl­ate O atom and the primary and secondary amine N atoms. The two analyses, at 293 and 100 K, exhibited no remarkable structural differences, although the colour of the crystals did differ, being red at 293 K and orange at 100 K.
