Crystal and molecular structures of three trimethylamine-boron halide adducts: (CH3)3NBCl3, (CH3)3NBBr3, and (CH3)3NBI3

X-ray diffraction data from single crystals of the trimethylamine complexes of the three boron halides, BCl₃, BBr₃, and BI₃, lead to aP2₁/m monoclinic cell containing two molecules for each complex. The unit cell dimensions area = 6·68(1),b = 10·247(3),c = 6·502(6) Å, =116·2(1)° (chloro);a = 6·86(1),b = 10·612(4),c = 6·737(6) Å, = 115·8(1)° (bromo);a = 6·92(2),b = 10·86(1),c = 7·147(6) Å, = 93·9(1)° (iodo). The structures were solved by three-dimensional sharpened Patterson functions and show only the chloro and bromo compounds to be isomorphous. Refinement of 662,718 and 954 observed reflexions for the chloro, bromo and iodo complexes, respectively, using anisotropic thermal parameters yielded conventionalR factors of 0·045, 0·087 and 0·054.The molecules are shown to possess a B—N dative bond, a staggered conformation, and effective 3m (C _3v) symmetry. Average C—N bond lengths are 1·52(1) Å for all three complexes. Boronhalogen bond lengths average 1·864(4), 2·04(2) and 2·28(2) Å, while B—N bond distances are 1·609(6), 1·60(2) and 1·58(3) Å, respectively, for the chloro through iodo compounds. Bond angles are approximately tetrahedral with the C—N—C angle decreasing by several degrees in the Cl Br I series.Based in part on a dissertation submitted by Patty H. Clippard to the Rackham School of Graduate Studies of the University of Michigan, January 1969 in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the Ph.D. Degree.

Structural studies of low-valent metal-fluorocarbon complexes

The crystal structure of bis(triphenylphosphine)hexafluoroacetone nickel(0), (Ph₃P)₂ , has been determined. The crystals are monoclinic: space group P2₁/n, a=18·123(5), b=19·879(5), c=9·745(2) Å, =93·46(2)° and Z=4.

The crystal structure of the nickel(II) chelate of the monothio derivative of 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-heptane-3, 5-dione has been studied at room temperature by X-ray diffraction methods. The space group isP2₁/c and the crystal data area = 19·96(2),b = 10·25(1),c = 12·45(1) Å, = 102·17(5) °Z = 4,D _m = 1·22,D _c = 1·23 g cm^–3. Full-matrix least-squares refinement of atomic and anisotropic thermal parameters, using 2109 non-zero intensities obtained by counter methods, terminated with a conventionalR of 0·105. The nickel was found to be surrounded by acis arrangement of two oxygen and two sulphur atoms which is almost planar, but slightly distorted towards a tetrahedron. All the evidence obtained supports extensive delocalization in the chelate rings, and the entire molecule has pseudomm symmetry. Thecis, rather thantrans relationship of the ligand atoms may indicate weak S-S interaction.

There are two types of guest molecules in the crystal, one is incorporated within the cavity of the host via three intramolecular N—H···O hydrogen bonds while the other is situated outside the cavity and connected with the host through one O—H···N hydrogen bond. The – stacking interactions between guests and benzimidazole rings result in one-dimensional columns. The aromatic face–face interactions between neighbouring columns facilitate the assembly of those columns into two-dimensional layers.

Crystal structure of 2-cyano-2-[3-cyano-4-diethyl-amino-1H-quinolylidene-2]-N,N-diethylacetamide,C21H25N5O

Crystals of the title compound, C₂₁H₂₅N₅O, are monoclinic: space groupP2₁/c,a = 12·680,b = 11·844,c = 13·550 Å, = 104·13 °,Z = 4. The structure was determined with CuK diffractometer data by direct methods and was refined by full-matrix least-squares methods toR = 0·076 for 2340 observed reflexions. All non-methyl hydrogen atom positions were determined. The hydrogen atom which is bonded to the ring nitrogen atom forms an intramolecular hydrogen bond with the carbonyl oxygen atom. Neither the six-membered homocyclic ring nor the six-membered heterocyclic ring is exactly planar. The molecular geometry and the detailed bond distances suggest that electron delocalization into the side chains is stabilized by the intramolecular hydrogen bond. This molecular structure determination has aided in the formulation of a reaction path for the 21 addition of cyano ynamine to phenylisocyanate.We thank Dr. M. E. Kuehne for suggesting the problem and for crystals, the National Research Council of Canada for financial support, and the University of British Columbia Computing Centre for assistance.     

Stereochemistry of racemic hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradeca-4,11-dienenickel(II) thiocyanate,C16H32N4Ni(SCN)2 · H2O

The diamagnetictrans-diene thiocyanate salt of the macrocyclic hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecadienenickel(II) complex crystallizes in the triclinic system with unit cell dimensions:a = 7·334(4),b = 8·808(6),c = 21·04(2) Å; = 63·7(0·9), = 103·8(1·4), = 110·2(1·3) °; space groupP¯1;Z = 2. The positions of all 62 atoms of the formula unit C₁₆H₃₂N₄Ni(SCN)₂.H₂O have been determined and refined by least-squares methods toR= 0·071 for 3536 X-ray diffractometric reflections. The optical activity of the two amine groups yields a racemic isomer. The only local symmetry element of the macrocyclic complex is the twofold rotation axis with the N-H bonds oriented on the same side of the approximate ligand plane. Both the C(CH₃)₂ and the imine groups are in atrans-configuration in the ring. The space group ensures that the crystal is a racemate, containing equal numbers of both enantiomers. One of the (SCN)^– groups is at a distance Ni-S 3·28 Å, the other one is 4·65 Å. No rotational disorder of the CH₃ groups has been observed. The three C-H bonds of the CH₃ groups are in approximately antiprismatic orientations with respect to the three -bonds in the case of bonding to a C(sp³) atom. The average of the C(sp³)-C(sp²) bond lengths is 1·53 Å, and the mean value for the C(sp³)-C(sp²) bonds is 1·50 Å, with 3 = 0·03 to 0·04 Å. The distances N(sp²)-C(sp³) 1·47 Å and 1·48 Å are significantly longer than the bond lengths N(sp²)=C(sp²) of 1·28 and 1·30 Å.

The hydrogen atom involved in a strong hydrogen bond between two carboxyl groups in adjacent molecules (0 ... 0 distance 2·519(2) Å) is covalently bonded to the carboxyl group belonging to the side chain of the amino acid. This side chain is buckled with C gauche to C with respect to the C —C bond.
