Tetrakis­(pyridinium‐2‐thiol­ato)­zinc(II) dinitrate

The crystal structure of the title compound, [Zn(C₅H₅NS)₄](NO₃)₂, consists of a [Zn(C₅H₅NS)₄]²⁺ (C₅H₅NS is pyridinium‐2‐thiol­ate) cation and two nitrate anions. The central Zn^II atom lies at a site with imposed symmetry and is surrounded by four S atoms [Zn—S = 2.3371 (5) Å] from four symmetrical pyridinium‐2‐thiol­ate ligands in a distorted tetrahedral geometry. There are N—H⋯O hydrogen‐bonding interactions between the pyridinium‐2‐thiol­ate ligands and nitrate O atoms. In addition, π–π interactions via aromatic N‐containing ligands are discussed.     

Synthesis of 3‐phenyl‐5‐(trifluoromethyl)isoxazole and 5‐phenyl‐3‐(trifluoromethyl)isoxazole

Reaction of 4,4,4‐trifluoro‐1‐phenyl‐1,3‐butanedione with hydroxylamine led to the formation of 5‐hydroxy‐3‐phenyl‐5‐(trifluoromethyl)‐4,5‐dihydroisoxazole which was dehydrated to 3‐phenyl‐5‐(trifluoro‐methyl)isoxazole. This isomer can also be synthesized by reaction of 4‐chloro‐4‐phenyl‐1,1,1‐trifluoro‐3‐buten‐2‐one with sodium azide. The regioisomer, 5‐phenyl‐3‐(trifluoromethyl)isoxazole was synthesized by reaction of 1,1,1‐trifluoro‐4‐phenylbut‐3‐yn‐2‐one with hydroxylamine and by the reaction of 3‐chloro‐1‐phenyl‐4,4,4‐trifluorobut‐2‐en‐1‐one with sodium azide. Both isomers were characterized by mass and NMR spectroscopy.     

[2,6‐Bis(5‐methyl‐2‐pyridyl)phenyl‐κ3N,C1,N′]chloridoplatinum(II)

In the title compound, [Pt(C₁₈H₁₅N₂)Cl], the Pt^II centre adopts a distorted square‐planar coordination geometry due to the pincer‐type monoanionic N–C–N tridentate ligand. The planar complexes stack viaπ–π interactions to form two‐dimensional accumulated sheets. This packing pattern is in contrast to that in related pincer‐type N–C–N complexes, which exhibit a one‐dimensional columnar stacking.     

4‐Amino‐3‐methyl‐6‐phenyl‐1,2,4‐triazin‐5(4H)‐one (metamitron) and 4‐amino‐6‐methyl‐3‐phenyl‐1,2,4‐triazin‐5(4H)‐one (isometamitron)

The title structures, both C₁₀H₁₀N₄O, are substitutional isomers. The N—N bond lengths are longer and the C=N bond lengths are shorter by ca 0.025 Å than the respective average values in the C=N—N=C group of asymmetric triazines; the assessed respective bond orders are 1.3 and 1.7. There are N—H⋯O and N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds in both structures, with 4‐­amino‐3‐methyl‐6‐phenyl‐1,2,4‐triazin‐5(4H)‐one containing a rare bifurcated N—H⋯N,N hydrogen bond. The structures differ in their mol­ecular stacking and the hydrogen‐bonding patterns.

The cation and free chloride ion in (II) have fourfold crystallographic symmetry. Hydro­gen‐bonding associations from the 2‐amino H atoms dominate both structures, with the principal acceptors being the chlorides, although in (I), the N4 atoms are also involved. Furthermore, (I) is a hydrate, with the water mol­ecule participating in the hydrogen‐bonding network.

The reaction of 1‐methyl‐1,3‐imidazole‐2‐thione (meimtH) with mercury(II) iodide in methanol in a 2:1 molar ratio resulted in the formation of single crystals of the title compound, [HgI₂(C₄H₆N₂S)₂]. The Hg atom is coordinated by two I [2.7809 (9) and 2.7999 (8) Å] and two thione S atoms [2.520 (3) and 2.576 (3) Å] with irregular tetrahedral coordination geometry. The NH groups of the imidazole ring take part in intra‐ and intermolecular hydrogen bonds with I atoms [N?I 3.596 (8) and 3.611 (9) Å, respectively] joining mol­ecules into infinite chains parallel to the z axis.     

Pseudohalide‐directed Assembly of Two Zinc(II) Coordination Polymers with a 3,4‐Bis(3‐pyridyl)‐5‐(4‐pyridyl)‐1,2,4‐triazole Tecton

The zinc(II) pseudohalide complexes {[Zn(L³³⁴)(SCN)₂(H₂O)](H₂O)₂}_n ( 1 ) and [Zn(L³³⁴)(dca)₂]_n ( 2 ) were synthesized and characterized using the ligand 3,4‐bis(3‐pyridyl)‐5‐(4‐pyridyl)‐1,2,4‐triazole (L³³⁴) and ZnCl₂ in presence of thiocyanate (SCN^–) and dicynamide [dca, N(CN)₂^–] respectively. Single‐crystal X‐ray structural analysis revealed that the central Zn^II atoms in both complexes have similar octahedral arrangement. Compound 1 has a 2D sheet structure bridged by bidentate L³³⁴ and double μ_N,S‐thiocyanate anions, whereas complex 2 , incorporating with two monodentate dicynamide anions, displays a two‐dimensional coordination framework bridged by tetradentate L³³⁴ ligand. Structural analysis demonstrated that the influence of pseudohalide anions plays an important role in determining the resultant structure. Both complexes were characterized by IR spectroscopy, microanalysis, and powder X‐ray diffraction techniques. In addition, the solid fluorescence and thermal stability properties of both complexes were investigated.     

Bis[N‐(4‐nitrophenyl)thiobenzamidato]mercury(II)

The molecule of the title compound, [Hg(C₁₃H₉N₂O₂S)₂], has approximate twofold rotation symmetry, with the Hg atom in an essentially linear two‐coordinate HgS₂ environment supported by secondary π interactions with the nitrophenyl rings of both ligands. The ligands are in the imine–thiolate rather than the amine–thione tautomeric form.     

3‐Methylamido‐3′,4′‐ethyl­enedithiotetra­thia­fulvalene­(+) potassium tetra­isothio­cyanato­mercury(II)

In the title compound, (C₁₀H₉NOS₆)K[Hg(SCN)₄] or (EDT–TTF–CONHMe)K[Hg(SCN)₄)], fully oxidized organic (EDT–TTF–CONHMe)^+· radical cations form quasi‐one‐dimensional stacks running along the monoclinic 2₁ axis and alternating along the crystallographic [101] direction with inorganic anion stacks made from mixed K⁺–[Hg(SCN)₄]²⁻ ribbons. For each anion, three essentially collinear SCN ligands inter­act with the K⁺ ions via short N⋯K contacts, while the terminal N atom of the fourth SCN group is engaged in a number of hydrogen‐bond contacts with the –CH, –NH and –CH₂ hydrogen‐bond donors of the amide function. Radical cations are dimerized along the stacks and the crystal conductivity is activated.     

Chloro(η6‐p‐cymene)(2‐methyl‐5‐oxo‐7‐phenyl‐5,6‐di­hydro‐2H‐1,2,4‐triaz­epine‐3‐thiol­ato‐κ2N4,S)­ruthenium(II)

The novel title ruthenium(II) complex, [RuCl(C₁₀H₁₄)(C₁₀H₁₀N₃OS)], was synthesized from the reaction of 1,2,4‐triazepine, a new class of bidentate ligands, with [Ru(p‐cymene)Cl₂]₂. The 1,2,4‐triazepine ligand is coordinated to the metal centre through the N‐4 and S atoms, forming a four‐membered chelate ring. This is the first structural example of a transition metal complex containing a 1,2,4‐triazepine ligand.

Compared with compound (I), compound (III) is a structurally different dinuclear complex. Extensive N—H…O, N—H…N, O—H…N and O—H…O hydrogen bonding occurs in the structure, leading to the formation of the three‐dimensional supramolecular structure.
