Three- and four-coordinated silver(I) ions in the coordination polymers [Ag(Me<Subscript>4</Subscript>Pyz)<Subscript>2</Subscript>]PF<Subscript>6</Subscript> and [Ag(2,3-Et<Subscript>2</Subscript>Pyz)<Subscript>2</Subscript>]PF<Subscript>6</Subscript>

The coordination polymers [AgPF₆(Me₄Pyz)₂] (I) and [AgPF₆(2,3-Et₂Pyz)₂] (II) were synthesized, and their structures were determined. Crystals of I are monoclinic, space group C2/c, a = 10.213(2) Å, b = 16.267(3) Å, c = 12.663(3) Å, β = 92.90(3)°, V = 2102.1(7) ų, ρ_calcd = 1.660 g/cm³, Z = 4. The structure of I is built of polymeric zigzag [Ag(C₈H₁₂N₂)] _∞ ⁺ chains and octahedral [PF₆] anions. The coordination polyhedron of the Ag⁺ ion is a flat triangle. Crystals of II are tetragonal, space group P \(\bar 4\)2(1)/c,a = b = 10.641(1) Å, c = 18.942(1) Å, V = 2144.6(2) ų, ρ_calcd = 1.627 g/cm³, Z = 4. In the structure of II, 2D cationic layers of fused square rings exist; the rings consist of four Ag⁺ cations linked by four bridging ligands of diethylpyrazine Et₂Pyz. The coordination polyhedron of the Ag⁺ ion is an irregular four-vertex polyhedron.     

Crystal structure of two hydrate phases of ciprofloxacindi-um tetrachloridocobaltate(II)

New (C₁₇H₂₀FN₃O₃)₂[CoCl₄]₂·3H₂O (I) and C₁₇H₂₀FN₃O₃[CoCl₄]·H₂O (II) compounds, where C₁₇H₁₈FN₃O₃ is ciprofloxacin (CfH), are synthesized and their crystal structures are determined. Crystallographic data for I: a = 18.441(5) Å, b = 9.030(3) Å, c = 27.551(8) Å, V = 4588(4) ų, space group Pca2₁, Z = 4; for II: a = 9.305(3) Å, b = 9.885(3) Å, c = 12.999(4) Å, α = 82.782(4)°, β = 72.954(4)°, γ = 89.736(4)°, V = 1133(1) ų, P-1 space group, Z = 2. Both structures contain CfH ₃ ²⁺ ion pairs bonded by the π-π interaction. Additionally, in the crystal of I there is a stacking interaction between the π clouds of aromatic rings and hydrogen atoms of the cyclopropyl group linking the pairs of molecules with each other. The structure of the centrosymmetric crystal of triclinic phase II is also formed from CfH ₃ ²⁺ ion pairs bonded by the π-π interaction, which, in this case, are not independent because they are related by the symmetry center. Hydrogen bonds form a branched three-dimensional network linking the CfH ₃ ²⁺ and CoCl ₄ ^2? ions and water molecules.     

Coordination behavior of 1,4-diallylpiperazinium and 1-allyloxybenzotriazole toward silver(I) in the crystalline π-complexes [Ag2(C4H8N2(C3H5)2(H+)2)(H2O)2(NO3)2](NO3)2 and [Ag(C6H4N3(OC3H5)(NO3))]

Reactions of a solution of AgNO₃ in aqueous methanol with solutions of 1,4-diallylpiperazine (acidified with HNO₃ to pH = 4) and 1-allyloxybenzotriazole in ethanol gave the crystalline silver(I) π-complexes [Ag₂(C₄H₈N₂(C₃H₅)₂(H⁺)₂)(H₂O)₂(NO₃)₂](NO₃)₂ (I) and [Ag(C₆H₄N₃(OC₃H₅)(NO₃))] (II). Their crystal structures were determined by X-ray diffraction. Crystals of complexes I and II are monoclinic, space group P2₁/c; for I: a = 7.053(3)Å, b = 9.389(3)Å, c = 15.488(4)Å, β = 91.60°, V = 1025.3(6)ų, Z = 4; for II: a = 10.650(4)Å, b = 15.062(5)Å, c = 7.412(4)Å, β = 104.20(3)°, V = 1152.6(8)ų, Z = 4. In both structures, the organic components act as bidentate ligands forming with AgNO₃ 34- and 14-membered topological rings, respectively. In complex I, the nearly tetrahedral environment of the Ag(I) atom is made up of the olefinic C=C bond, the O atoms of the nitrate anions, and the water molecule. 1-Allyloxybenzotriazole in structure II causes the deformation of the coordination polyhedron of Ag into a trigonal pyramid via inclusion of the ligand N atom in its coordination sphere. The topological units of the complexes form infinite polymer layers linked by anionic NO ₃ ^? bridges. In structure I, these layers are united through a system of hydrogen bonds into a three-dimensional framework.
