Crystal structure of aminoguanidinium hexahydro-closo-hexaborate dihydrate, (CN4H7)2B6H6 · 2H2O

The (HAgu)₂B₆H₆ · 2H₂O compound was synthesized and its crystal structure was determined [R = 0.0385 for 2018 reflections with I > 2σ(I)]. The structure consists of HAgu ⁺ cations, centrosymmetric B₆H ₆ ^2? anions, and water molecules. The anions have an almost regular octahedral structure. The bond lengths and angles lie within the following narrow ranges: B-B, 1.715–1.726(2) Å; B-H, 1.08–1.14(2) Å; B-B-B, 59.72°–60.29(9)° and 89.63°–90.20(11)°; and B-B-H, 133.2°–137.0(9)°. The HAgu ⁺ cations and water molecules are involved in the O-H?O, N-H?O, and N-N?N hydrogen bonds and participate in numerous (N, O)-H?H-B specific interactions with the B₆H ₆ ^2? anions, which results in splitting and high-frequency shift of the band of B-H stretching vibrations in the IR spectrum.     

Refined crystal structure of lovozerite Na2CaZr[Si6O12(OH,O)6] · H2O

The structure of Na,Ca,Zr-silicate lovozerite, Na₂CaZr[Si₆O₁₂(OH,O)₆] · H₂O, from the Khibiny alkaline massif (the Kola Peninsula) was refined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis (Syntex $P\bar 1$ diffractometer, λMoK _α radiation, 2θ/θ scanning technique).

Synthesis and crystal structure of [Ni(H2O)6](C19H17O9S)2·2H2O

A water soluble flavonoid sulfate, [Ni(H₂O)₆](C₁₉H₁₇O₉S)₂·2H₂O was synthesized and its structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The crystal of it belongs to triclinic crystal system, space group P–1. The results show that the title compound consists of [Ni(H₂O)₆]²⁺, C₁₉H₁₇O₆SO₃ ⁻ and H₂O. Ni(II) is located on the symmetry center and octahedrally coordinated by six water molecules. A variety of hydrogen bonds among [Ni(H₂O)₆]²⁺, C₁₉H₁₇O₆SO₃ ⁻ and the lattice water molecules build a hydrophilic region. Aromatic π–π stacking interactions assemble isoflavone skeletons into a column and the columns form a hydrophobic region of the title compound. The sulfo-groups bridge the hydrophilic regions and the hydrophobic regions as well as the inorganic components and organic components. Hydrogen bonds, stacking interactions and the electrostatic interactions between cation [Ni(H₂O)₆]²⁺ and anion sulfonate C₁₉H₁₇O₆SO₃ ⁻ lead the moieties to a three-dimensional structure.

Crystal structure of neptunium(V) sulfate hexahydrate, (NpO2)2SO4 · 6H2O

Single crystals of (NpO₂)₂SO₄ · 6H₂O are obtained, and their structure is determined. The structure is built of NpO ₂ ⁺ dioxo cations, SO ₄ ^2? anions, and molecules of coordination and crystallization water. The NpO ₂ ⁺ ions are linked into cationic ribbons stretched along the [001] direction. In the ribbons, neptunoyl ions of one type act as monodentate ligands, whereas neptunoyl ions of the other type coordinate the neighboring neptunoyl groups by two oxygen atoms. The Np(1) and Np(2) atoms have oxygen environments in the shape of a pentagonal bipyramid whose equatorial plane consists of oxygen atoms of the neighboring dioxo cations, sulfate ions, and water molecules. The sulfate ion acts as a bidentate ligand bridging the two neighboring atoms Np(1) and Np(2). Six water molecules are revealed in the structure; one of them is a crystallization water molecule. Hydrogen bonds link cationic ribbons into a three-dimensional network.

Crystal and molecular structures of potassium cobalt hydrogen phthalate K2[Co(H2O)6](C8H5O4)4 ⋅ 4H2O and mechanism of Co2+ impurity trapping in KAP crystals

The single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of K₂[Co(H₂O)₆](C₈H₅O₄)₄ ? 4H₂O has been carried out. The K₂[Co(H₂O)₆](C₈H₅O₄)₄ ? 4H₂O single crystals are obtained in attempting to grow the KAP crystals with the maximum possible content of Co²⁺ impurity cations. The crystals are isostructural to the earlier-studied similar crystals with Ni(II). The structure is formed by double layers of biphthalate anions and the Co²⁺ and K⁺ cations in between. The Co²⁺ cations are coordinated only by water molecules, whereas the coordination of the K⁺ cations involves both the biphthalate anions and water molecules. A detailed crystal chemical analysis, together with the data on the growth kinetics of KAP crystals in the presence of Co²⁺ and the mass-spectrometric data obtained earlier for the KAP crystals, leads to the conclusion that the Co²⁺ impurity cations should be located in the form of the [Co(H₂O)₆]²⁺ cationic complexes in the interblock layers of the KAP crystals.
