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.     

Preparation and study of hydrogen hexamolybdometallates(III) with the hexamminecadmium cation

Hydrogen hexamolybdogallate and hexamolybdoaluminate with the hexamminecadmium cation [Cd(NH₃)₆] · H[GaMo₆O₁₈(OH)₆] · 6H₂O (I) and [Cd(NH₃)₆] · H[AlMo₆O₁₈(OH)₆] · 6H₂O (II) were synthesized and studied by mass spectrometry, thermogravimetric analysis, powder X-ray diffraction, and IR spectroscopy.

Crystal structures of allyltriphenyl-phosphonium halogenocuprates(I)

Alternating-current electrochemical synthesis is used to obtain for the first time halogenocuprates of an allyl derivative of phosphonium of the composition (CH₂=CHCH₂(C₆H₅)₃P)CuX₂ (X = Br (I), Cl (II)). Compound I crystallizes in the space group P2₁, a = 9.6341(3) Å, b = 12.4167(4) Å, c = 9.9618(4) Å, β = 117.484(5)°, Z = 2. Compound II crystallizes in the space group P2₁/n, a = 9.9725(5) Å, b = 15.4586(8) Å, c = 13.7557(5) Å, β = 90.429(4)°, Z = 4. In the structures of I and II quasilinear CuX ₂ ^? anions are held by C-H…X hydrogen bonds inside a framework formed by the stacking of phenyl groups from CH₂=CHCH₂(C₆P₅)₃P⁺ cations. Allyl groups are not involved in coordination with copper(I) atoms.     

Structural investigation of ethylenediaminium tetrachloroaurates(III)

The (EnH₂)[AuCl₄]₂·2H₂O (I) and (EnH₂)₂[AuCl₄]Cl₃ (II) (EnH ₂ ²⁺ is diprotonated ethylenediamine) complexes are produced and characterized by elemental and thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray diffraction, IR and Raman spectroscopy.

For II, the crystals are orthorhombic, crystallize in the space group Pnma: a = 12.7088(3) Å, b = 17.7435(5) Å, c = 7.4992(2) Å, V = 1691.06(8) ų, Z = 8.     

Synthesis and structure of lithium and rubidium compounds with 2-(diphenylacetyl)-1,3-indanedione

Complexes RbL (I) and [Li₂(C₂H₅OH)L₂] (II) (L = C₂₃H₁₅O₃) have been synthesized and their crystal structures have been studied. Both compounds have monoclinic crystals with space group P2₁/c and Z = 4; I: a = 11.632(2) Å, b = 15.154(3) Å, c = 11.457(2) Å, β = 104.34(3)°; II: a = 12.982(3)Å, b = 12.083(2) Å, c = 25.317(5) Å β = 100.11(3)°. In the structure of I, dimeric groups [Rb₂O₆] with a shared edge are linked by the ligands to give infinite layers perpendicular to the x axis and cavities that form oblong channels. In the structure of II, Li₂O₇ dimers are formed by vertex sharing. The coordination of one of the lithium atoms (Li(1)) is completed to tetrahedral by the oxygen atom of the ethanol molecule. The structure of II, like that of I, is layered.
