The conformation of the anions have been analysed using torsion angles, displacement asymmetry parameters, and puckering parameters. The trimetaphosphimate ions act as bidentate ligands of Cu²⁺. With additionally coordinated water molecules, anionic complexes {Cu[(PO₂NH)₃]₂ · 2 H₂O}^4– are formed. In the crystal these complexes are interconnected by N–H…O und O–H…O hydrogen bonds and they coordinate the Na⁺. Thus, a three‐dimensional network is formed.     

Structures of substituted di-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives: 2,5-bis(pyridyl)- and 2,5-bis(aminophenyl)-substitution

Crystal structures of four different di-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazole compounds (aryl = 2-pyridyl-, 3-pyridyl-, 2-aminophenyl-, 3-aminophenyl-) are determined. Crystallization of di(2-pyridyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole yielded monoclinic and triclinic polymorphs. The structures are characterized by the occurrence of π–π interactions. Additionally, in case of the aminophenyl compounds intra- as well as intermolecular hydrogen bonds are found that influence the packing motif as well. Since these molecules are often used as ligands in metal–organic complexes similarities and differences of the molecular conformation between the molecules in the pure crystals and that of the ligands in the complexes are discussed.     

Cyclic porphyrin dimers as hosts for coordinating ligands

Bicovalently linked tetraphenylporphyrins bearing dioxypentane groups at the opposite (transoid, H₄A) and adjacent (cisoid, H₄B) aryl groups have been synthesised. Protonation of the free-base porphyrins leads to fully protonated species H₈A⁴⁺/H₈A⁴⁺ accompanied by expansion of cavity size of the bisporphyrins. The electrochemical redox studies of these porphyrins and their Zinc(II) derivatives revealed that the first ring oxidation proceeds through a two-electron process while the second ring oxidation occurs at two distinct one-electron steps indicating unsymmetrical charge distribution in the oxidized intermediate. The axial ligation properties of the Zinc(Il) derivatives of H₄A/H₄B with DABCO and PMDA investigated by spectroscopic and single crystal X-ray diffraction studies showed predominant existence of 1: I complex. The Zn₂A.DABCO complex assumes an interesting eclipsed structure wherein DABCO is located inside the cavity between the two porphyrin planes with Zn-N distances at 2.08 and 2.22 ?. The Zn atoms are pulled into the cavity due to coordination towards nitrogen atoms of DABCO and deviate from the mean porphyrin plane by 0.35 ?. The electrochemical redox potentials of the axially ligated metal derivatives are found to be sensitive function of the relative coordinating ability of the ligands and the conformation of the hosts.

Weak interactions involving organic fluorine: a comparative study of the crystal packing in substituted isoquinolines

Weak interactions involving fluorine have been analyzed in the structure of 6-methoxy-1,2-diphenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline with fluorine substitution at para-, meta- and ortho- positions, respectively, on the 1-phenyl ring. The packing modes in the crystalline lattice as determined by X-ray diffraction techniques generate motifs via F?F, C-H?F and C-F?π interactions. The three structures as compared to the parent compound depict conformational changes in the saturated tetrahydroisoquinoline moiety. The salient features of the four structures in terms of weak interactions involving fluorine suggest that organic fluorine does resemble the other halogens.
