These anions form stable AB-type salts with the doubly charged cation dipyridiniomethane, [(C₅H₅N)₂CH₂]²⁺. X-ray structure determinations on single crystals of cis-[(C₅H₅N)₂CH₂][PtF₄Cl₂] ( 1 ) (monoclinic, space group P2₁/n with a = 10.379(10), b = 9.635(2), c = 13.738(2) Å, β = 99.142(10)°, Z = 4), trans-[(C₅H₅N)₂CH₂][PtF₄Cl₂] · H₂O ( 2 ) (triclinic, space group P1 with a = 7.757(4), b = 10.059(7), c = 10.408(6) Å, α = 82.49(5), β = 68.92(4), γ = 75.46(4)°, Z = 2) and [(C₅H₅N)₂CH₂][PtF₅Cl] ( 3 ) (orthorhombic, space group Pnma with a = 10.394(3), b = 13.320(2), c = 9.2694(10) Å, Z = 4), reveal the perfect ordering of the anion sublattice. The stronger trans influence of Cl compared with F is observed in asymmetric axes $ {\rm F}^ \bullet $? Pt? Cl′. The bond lengths Pt? $ {\rm F}^ \bullet $ are 0.026 Å (1.4%) longer and the Pt? Cl′ distances are 0.078 Å (3,3%) shorter in comparison with those of symmetrically coordinated axes. The weakening of the Pt? $ {\rm F}^ \bullet $ bond and the strengthening of the Pt? Cl′ bond is better recognizable from shifts of the stretching vibrations by 8% to lower and by 13% to higher frequencies, respectively. Correspondingly, the valence force constants are found to be 15% lower and 22% higher. The trans influence is observed most distinctly in the ¹⁹F-nmr spectra exhibiting the coupling constant ¹J($ {\rm F}^ \bullet $Pt) to be 29% smaller than ¹J(FPt).     

Complexation of the 2, 4, 6‐Triallyloxy‐1, 3, 5‐triazine with Copper(I,II) Chlorides. Syntheses and Crystal Structures of [CuCl2·2C3N3(OC3H5)3], [Cu7Cl8·2C3N3(OC3H5)3], and [Cu8Cl8·2C3N3(OC3H5)3]·2C2H5OH

Interaction of copper(II) chloride with 2, 4, 6‐triallyloxy‐1, 3, 5‐triazine leads to formation of copper(II) complex [CuCl₂·2C₃N₃(OC₃H₅)₃] ( I ). Electrochemical reduction of I produces the mixed‐valence Cu^{I, II} π, σ‐complex of [Cu₇Cl₈·2C₃N₃(OC₃H₅)₃] ( II ). Final reduction produces [Cu₈Cl₈·2C₃N₃(OC₃H₅)₃]·2C₂H₅OH copper(I) π‐complex ( III ). Low‐temperature X‐ray structure investigation of all three compounds has been performed: I : space group P1¯, a = 8.9565(6), b = 9.0114(6), c = 9.7291(7) Å, α = 64.873(7), β = 80.661(6), γ = 89.131(6)°, V = 700.2(2) ų, Z = 1, R = 0.0302 for 2893 reflections. II : space group P1¯, a = 11.698(2), b = 11.162(1), c = 8.106(1) Å, α = 93.635(9), β = 84.24(1), γ = 89.395(8)°, V = 962.0(5) ų, Z = 1, R = 0.0465 for 6111 reflections. III : space group P1¯, a = 8.7853(9), b = 10.3602(9), c = 12.851(1) Å, α = 99.351(8), β = 105.516(9), γ = 89.395(8), V = 1111.4(4) ų, Z = 1, R = 0.0454 for 4470 reflections. Structure of I contains isolated [CuCl₂·2C₃N₃(OC₃H₅)₃] units. The isolated fragment of I fulfils in the structure of II bridging function connecting two hexagonal prismatic‐like cores Cu₆Cl₆, whereas isolated Cu₆Cl₆(CuCl)₂ prismatic derivative appears in III . Coordination behaviour of the 2, 4, 6‐triallyloxy‐1, 3, 5‐triazine moiety is different in all the compounds. In I ligand moiety binds to the only copper(II) atom through the nitrogen atom of the triazine ring. In II ligand is coordinated to the Cu^II‐atom through the N atom and to two Cu^I ones through the two allylic groups. In III all allylic groups and nitrogen atom are coordinated by four metal centers. The presence of three allyl arms promotes an acting in II and III structures the bridging function of the ligand moiety. On the other hand, space separation of allyl groups enables a formation of large complicated inorganic clusters.

The absorption wavelengths of the δ → δ* transitions and the chemical shifts and the coupling constants of the ³¹P{¹H}-NMR spectra of these complexes are dependent on the natures of the halogen atoms and the acetate ligands.

From hydrothermal synthesis needle‐shaped crystals of [Ca₃(C₆H₅O₇)₂(H₂O)₂] · 2H₂O were obtained.

Two uranyl sulfate hydrates, (H₃O)₂[(UO₂)₂(SO₄)₃(H₂O)] · 7H₂O (NDUS) and (H₃O)₂[(UO₂)₂(SO₄)₃(H₂O)] · 4H₂O (NDUS1), and one uranyl selenate‐selenite [C₅H₆N][(UO₂)(SeO₄)(HSeO₃)] (NDUSe), were obtained and their crystal structures solved. NDUS and NDUSe result from reactions in highly acidic media in the presence of L ‐cystine at 373 K. NDUS crystallized in a closed vial at 278 K after 5 days and NDUSe in an open beaker at 278 K after 2 weeks. NDUS1 was synthesized from aqueous solution at room temperature over the course of a month. NDUS, NDUS1, and NDUSe crystallize in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n, a = 15.0249(4) Å,b = 9.9320(2) Å, c = 15.6518(4) Å, β = 112.778(1)°, V = 2153.52(9) ų,Z = 4, the tetragonal space group P4₃2₁2, a = 10.6111(2) Å,c = 31.644(1) Å, V = 3563.0(2) ų, Z = 8, and in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n, a = 8.993(3) Å, b = 13.399(5) Å, c = 10.640(4) Å,β = 108.230(4)°, V = 1217.7(8) ų, Z = 4, respectively.The structural units of NDUS and NDUS1 are two‐dimensional uranyl sulfate sheets with a U/S ratio of 2/3. The structural unit of NDUSe is a two‐dimensional uranyl selenate‐selenite sheets with a U/Se ratio of 1/2. In‐situ reaction of the L ‐cystine ligands gives two distinct products for the different acids used here. Where sulfuric acid is used, only H₃O⁺ cations are located in the interlayer space, where they balance the charge of the sheets, whereas where selenic acid is used, interlayer C₅H₆N⁺ cations result from the cyclization of the carboxyl groups of L ‐cystine, balancing the charge of the sheets.
