Abstract

Optically active (R,R)-(-)-trans-1,2-dichlorocyclohexane (DCC) was isolated as an inclusion crystal with the optically active host, (R,R)-(-)-trans-2,3-(hydroxydiphenylmethyl)-1,4-dioxaspiro[4.4]-nonane, and the structure of the 2:1 inclusion crystal has been determined by X-ray analysis. Crystal data: C₇₂H₇₄O₈Cl₂, orthorhombic, P2₁2₁2 (No. 18), a = 17.465(6) Å, b = 20.095(6) Å, c = 8.664(5) Å, V = 3040(2) ų, Z = 2, D_c = 1.24g cm^?3, D_m = 1.23g cm^?3, T = 293 K and final R ₁ = 0.050 for 2766 observed data (I > 2σ(I)). The conformation of DCC in the inclusion crystal has been found to be equatorial and the absolute configuration was definitely determined to be (R,R) on the basis of the known configuration of the host.     

The Role of Chloro Substituents in Solid Inclusion Formation. Crystal Structures Formed by a Bulky Hydroxy Host with Ethyl Acetate (2:1) and Cyclohexylamine (1:2) as Guest

Abstract

Two inclusion compounds of the 11-[bis(p‐chlorophenyl)hydroxymethyl]-9,10-dihydro-9,10-ethanoanthracene host (1) have been studied by X-ray diffraction in order to find an explanation of the exceptional clathrate formation ability of the present chloro-containing host as compared with that of closely related chlorine-free host analogues. Crystal data: 1·ethyl acetate (2:1), C₂₇H₂₂OCl₂·½(C₄H₈O₂), M_w = 501.45, P2_1/c, a = 8.9060(5), b = 11.1109(6), c = 25.642(1) Å, β = 99.03(1)°, Z = 4, R = 0.047 for 2029 F values with I>2σ(I); 1·cyclohexylamine (1:2), 2[C₂₉H₂₂OCI₂·2(C₆H₁₃N)], M_w = 1311.50, Pc, a = 12.144(2), b = 12.689(3), c =23.119(8) Å, β = 91.68(1)°, Z = 2, R = 0.054 for 3073 F values with I>2σ(I). Although the two solid inclusion compounds differ in host‐guest stoichiometry, space group symmetry and also in host‐guest recognition mode, both co-crystals are held together by numerous C?H…X (X = O, N or Cl) interactions, in which the chloro-substituents of 1 play a very active role. The observed frequent participation of chlorine in intermolecular interactions in these compounds suggests an ability of the (C?)Cl substituents to effectively enhance the crystal formation in the absence of more dominant forces.     

Syntheses and crystal structure studies of two compounds of quinolones

Two complexes with enoxacin and ciprofloxacin were synthesized and the crystal structures are reported. Compound 1, [Cu(H-Eno) · Cl₂] · 3H₂O (H-Eno = Enoxacin), crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group P 1, with lattice parameters a = 8.7731(12) Å, b = 9.4976(14) Å, c = 13.2033(19) Å, α = 86.319(7)°, β = 71.912(7)°, γ = 80.604(7)°, V = 1031.6(3) ų, Z = 2, D _c = 1.625 mgm^?3. 2, [Mn(Cip)₂] · 2H₂O (Cip = mono-anion of ciprofloxacin), crystallizes in the monoclinic, space group P2(1)/c, with lattice parameters a = 5.85690(10), b = 21.9490(6), c = 13.4443(3) Å, β = 100.9700(10)°, V = 1696.72(7) ų, Z = 2, D _c = 1.459 mgm^?3.     

NEW THREE DIMENSIONAL [Cd(CN)2]n FRAMEWORK FORMED WITH CADMIUM CYANIDE AND Cd(CN)2·(18-CROWN-6): CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF [Cd(CN)2]·1/2[Cd(CN)2 (18-CROWN-6)]·3/2EtOH+

Abstract

The cadmium complex Cd(CN)₂·(18-crown-6) (1) was synthesized and its structure was determined by X-ray crystallography. The cadmium ion in 1 has a hexagonal bipyramidal geometry containing six equatorial oxygen atoms from the crown ether and two axial CN ligands. The NC-Cd-CN ‘rod’ is perfectly linear with an end-to-end distance of 6.509 (12) Å. When 1 was allowed to diffuse into a cadmium cyanide solution, the infinite coordination complex [Cd(CN)₂]·1/2[(Cd(CN)₂·(18-crown-6)]·3/2EtOH (2) was obtained in which the cadmium macrocycle 1 was trapped in a 10-faced-cage formed by the [Cd(CN)₂]n framework. The terminal nitrogen atoms of 1 bind two Cd centers across the cage. The trapped Cd(CN)₂·(18-crown-6) has a significantly bent NC-Cd-CN unit and the crown ether ligand disordered over two orientations. The [Cd(CN)₂]_n framework viewed down the c axis shows two types of channels, one octagonal and one tetragonal, which are filled with Cd(CN)₂·(18-crown-6) and ethanol molecules, respectively. Crystallographic data of 1: trigonal, space group R·3 (hexagonal axis), a = 11.757 (1), c = 12.105 (1) Å, V = 1449.1 (2) ų, Z = 3, R = 0.0566, R_w = 0.0674 for 827 unique reflections (I>3σ(I)). Crystallographic data of 2: orthorhombic, Pbcn, a = 16.632 (1), b = 17.391 (3), c = 15.685 (2) Å, V = 4536.8 (9) ų, Z = 8. R = 0.0486, R_w = 0.0492 for 929 unique reflections (I>3σ(I)).

A dinuclear copper(II) compound, [Cu(btssb)(H₂O)]₂ · 4(H₂O) (1), and a 1-D chain copper(II) compound, [Cu(ctssb)(H₂O)] _n (2) [where H₂btssb is 2-[(5-bromo-2-hydroxy-benzylidene)-amino]-ethanesulfonic acid and H₂ctssb is 2-[(3,5-dichloro-2-hydroxy-benzylidene)-amino]-ethanesulfonic acid], were prepared and characterized. Compound 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c, with a = 10.109(2) Å, b = 20.473(4) Å, c = 6.803(1) Å, β = 100.32(3)°, V = 1385.1(5) ų, and Z = 2; R ₁ for 1796 observed reflections [I > 2σ(I)] was 0.0357. The geometry around each copper(II) can be described as slightly distorted square pyramidal. The Cu^II ··· Cu^II distance is 5.471(1) Å. Compound 1 formed a 1-D network through O–H ··· O hydrogen bonds and 1-D water chains exist. The 1-D chain complex 2 crystallizes in the triclinic space group P 1, with a = 5.030(2) Å, b = 7.725(2) Å, c = 17.011(5) Å, α = 92.706(4)°, β = 97.131(4)°, γ = 102.452(3)°, V = 638.6(3) ų, and Z = 2; R ₁ for 1897 observed reflections [I > 2σ(I)] was 0.0171. In 2, Cu(II) was also a slightly distorted square pyramid formed by two oxygens and one nitrogen from ctssb, one oxygen from another ctssb, and one water molecule. The complex formed a 1-D chain through O–S–O bridge of ctssb ligand. The 1-D chain further constructed a double chain through O?H ··· O hydrogen bonds.     

Compounds with Cluster Cations together with Cluster Anions [(M6X12)(EtOH)6]2+ besides [(Mo6Cl8)Cl4X2]2– (M = Nb,Ta; X = Cl,Br) – Synthesis and Crystal Structures

Compounds consisting of both cluster cations and cluster anions of the composition [(M₆X₁₂)(EtOH)₆][(Mo₆Cl₈)Cl₄X₂] · n EtOH · m Et₂O (M = Nb, Ta; X = Cl, Br) have been prepared by the reaction of (M₆X₁₂)X₂ · 6 EtOH with (Mo₆Cl₈)Cl₄. IR data are given for three compounds. The structures of [(Nb₆Cl₁₂)(EtOH)₆][(Mo₆Cl₈)Cl₆] · 3 EtOH · 3 Et₂O 1 and [(Ta₆Cl₁₂)(EtOH)₆][(Mo₆Cl₈)Cl₆] · 6 EtOH 2 have been solved in the triclinic space group P1 (No. 2). Crystal data: 1 , a = 10.641(2) Å, b = 13.947(2) Å, c = 15.460(3) Å, α = 65.71(2)°, β = 73.61(2)°, γ = 85.11(2)°, V = 2005.1(8) ų and Z = 1; 2 , a = 11.218(2) Å, b = 12.723(3) Å, c = 14.134(3) Å, α = 108.06(2)°, β = 101.13(2)°, γ = 91.18(2)°, V = 1874.8(7) ų and Z = 1. Both structures are built of octahedral [(M₆Cl₁₂)(EtOH)₆]²⁺ cluster cations and [(Mo₆Cl₈)Cl₆]^2– cluster anions, forming distorted CsCl structure types. The Nb–Nb and Ta–Ta bond lengths of 2.904 Å and 2.872 Å (mean values), respectively, are rather short, indicating weak M–O bonds. All O atoms of coordinated EtOH molecules are involved in H bridges. The Mo–Mo distances of 2.603 Å and 2.609 Å (on average) are characteristic for the [(Mo₆Cl₈)Cl₆]^2– anion, but there is a clear correlation between the number of hydrogen bridges to the terminal Cl and the corresponding Mo–Cl distances.

Final R values for the four structures were 0.065, 0.120, 0.084 and 0.107 for 2937, 2830, 2071 and 3769 reflections, respectively. The host conformation is quite rigid and does not appear to be influenced by the shape and size of the guests studied. The host is held in a spiral conformation by means of an intramolecular hydrogen bond. In addition, host-guest hydrogen bonds are observed in all structures. Thermal analysis was used to evaluate the strength of binding of the guest molecules and confirmed that (1) is the most stable of the four compounds studied.

Synthesis,Spectral Characterization,and Crystal Structure of Two Polymorphs of o,o’-Dichloro Dibenzyl Disulfide

2-Chlorophenyl methanethiol undergoes air oxidation catalyzed by different selenides and yields the corresponding disulfide 1 in two polymorphic forms, 1a and 1b. In the molecular structures of the two new polymorphs of o,o′-dichloro dibenzyl disulfide, the dihedral angles between the dibenzyl groups are 82.0(1)°, (1a), and 73.7(4)°, (1b), respectively [(1a): P-1, a = 8.424(2) Å, b = 8.838(2) Å, c = 10.5823(19) Å, α = 90.122(18)°, β = 112.19(2)°, γ = 95.19(2)°, V = 725.9(3) ų; (1b): P2₁/n, a = 10.5888(10) Å, b = 9.1590(6) Å, c = 15.2489(14) Å, β = 103.072(9)°, V = 1440.6(2) ų]. MOPAC computational studies yield dihedral angles of 89.6(5)° and 71.9(9)°. Crystal packing is stabilized by weak π-ring (C?H···Cg) intermolecular interactions in both 1a and 1b and by additional weak Cg ··· Cg intermolecular interactions in 1b, which influence the bond distances, bond angles, and torsion angles of the dibenzyl groups in each polymorph. Additional characterization of each polymorph has been carried out by TEM, IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy, microanalysis, and by FAB mass spectrometry. TEM studies of a sample of 1a show that it contains cigar-shaped crystallites.

Synthesis,characterization and crystal structures of two alkaline-earth metal complexes of olsalazine

Two one-dimensional linear coordination polymers, [Mg(L)?·?4(H₂O)] (H₂L?=?olsalazine) and 2 [Ca(L)?·?4(H₂O)] were obtained from self-assembly of CaCl₂ or MgSO₄ with olsalazine and their structures determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction.

In the complexes, Mg and Ca adopt totally different coordination modes. Alkaline-earth Mg is six-coordinate octahedronal geometry, however, in 2, the local coordination geometry around calcium atom can be best described as a slightly distorted pentagonal bipyramid crystallizing in a homo-chiral space group. Olsalazine in both compounds also adopts dissimilar coordination modes.     

Conformational Studies of Dibenzo-30-crown-10 Complexes. Syntheses and Crystal Structures of Potassium and Ammonium Hexafluorophosphate Complexes

Abstract

Crown ether complexes formed by the dibenzo–30-crown–10 (DB30C10) with potassium and ammonium hexafluorophosphate have been prepared and their crystal structures have been determined by single crystal X-ray analyses. The potassium complex (compound 1) consists of [K(DB30C10)]⁺ cation and PF₆ ^? anion. Crystals are monoclinic, space group P2/n, with a = 11.9106(3), b = 9.8382(5), c = 14.3062(3) Å, β = 97.581(3)°, V = 1661.7(1) ų, D_c = 1.440 g cm^?3, Z = 4, R = 0.0675 for 2528 unique observed reflections. The potassium atom is coordinated to the ten oxygen atoms of the crown ligand at the distance from 2.859(3) to 2.930(3) Å. The ammonium complex (compound 2) has also 1:1 crown—cation ratio. Crystals are monoclinic, space group P2₁/n, with a = 12.5061(6), b = 19.3724(5), c = 14.2203(9) Å, β = 102.476(5)°, V = 3363.8(3) ų, D_c = 1.501 g cm^?3, Z = 4, R = 0.0677 for 4172 unique observed reflections. The ammonium cation is completely enclosed with crown oxygen atoms forming seven hydrogen bonds. The conformation of previously reported dibenzo-30-crown-10 complexes with potassium salts were investigated using polar coordinate maps.     

Three Crystal Structures,One Chemical Formula – Barium Dihydrogen‐hypodiphosphate(IV)‐dihydrate,BaH2P2O6·2H2O

Three polymorphs of barium dihydrogen‐hypodiphosphate(IV)‐dihydrate, BaH₂P₂O₆ · 2H₂O ( A , B and C ), were obtained and structurally characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction.

The phase purity of A and C was verified by powder diffraction measurements.     

Crystal Structures of (18-Crown-6)-(2-Hydroxyethylammonium) Tetracyanonickelate(Ii) and 10-Amino-Decylammonium Tetracyanonickeltate(II)

Abstract

The crystal structures of the two title tetracyanonickelate(II) salts of organic ammonium ions, (18-crown-6)-(2-hydroxyethylammonium) tetracyanonickelate(II), I, and 10-aminodecylammonium tetracyano nick-elate(II), II, have been analyzed. I crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n with a = 10.458(2), b = 8.267(3), c = 24.045(2) Å, β = 94.09(1)°, V = 2074(1) ų, Z = 2, R = 0.061 for 2274 reflections; II is triclinic P ₁ with a = 9.437(3), b = 10.094(3), c = 9.205(3)Å,a = 110.16(2), β = 112.72(3), γ = 69.16(2)°, V = 733.7(5) ų 2=1, R = 0.040 including all the hydrogen atoms refined for 2724 reflections. The square planar tetracyanonickelate(II) anion is in a favourable position to form hydrogen bonds via N with the hydroxyl group in I and the ammonio group in II, respectively.
