Metal complexes of 2-hetarylindandiones-1,3

The chelate and molecular complexes of 2-(2-benzazolyl, perimidyl)-indandiones-1,3 were synthesized for the first time. The structures of the ligands (tautomeric forms) and complex compounds were determined from the X-ray diffraction, ¹H, ¹³C NMR, and IR data and the quantum-chemical calculations (RHF SCF in 6-31 G** basis).     

Synthesis and crystal structure of divaleratobis(nicotinamide)copper(II)

A copper(II) valerate complex with nicotinamide (L) [CuL₂(C₄H₉COO)₂] (I) has been synthesized and studied by IR spectroscopy and thermogravimetry. The crystal structure has been determined. The crystals of 1 are monoclinic, a = 11.297(1) Å, b = 6.666(1) Å, c = 16.873(2) Å, b = 108.50(1)°, V = 1204.9(3) ų, Z = 2, space group P2₁/c. The structural units of the crystal of I are centrosymmetric tetragonal bipyramidal (4+2) complex molecules. The equatorial positions of the bipyramid are occupied by trans-arranged pairs of O (Cu-O, 1.973 Å) and N (Cu-N, 2.006 Å) atoms, and the axial positions are occupied by the second O atoms of the valerate anions located at longer distances (Cu-O, 2.506 Å). The supramolecular associates formed in the crystal are layers of hydrogen-bonded complexes. The disordered hydrocarbon “tails” of the valerate groups point toward the interlayer space.     

A Model System for the Study of Competitive Coordination in Aminoheterocyclic Complexes. Molecular and Crystal Structure of 2-Amino-1-methyl-Benzoimidazolium Chloride Hydrate

2-Amino-1-methyl-benzoimidazolium chloride hydrate was structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis. Its crystal is built from organic cations, chloride anions, and molecules of crystallization water, which are united through a related system of hydrogen bonds. In the organic cation, the proton is localized at the N atom of the pyridine type.
