catena‐Poly­[[silver(I)‐μ‐ethane‐1,2‐diamine‐κ2N:N′] 3‐fluorobenzoate monohydrate]

The title compound, {[Ag(C₂H₈N₂)](C₇H₄FO₂)·H₂O}_n, has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. The Ag atom is bicoordinated in a linear configuration by two N atoms from two symmetry‐related ethyl­enedi­amine ligands, giving linear polymeric chains with [–Ag—N—C—C—N–]_n backbones running parallel to the b axis. In the crystal packing, these linear chains are interconnected by N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, and by weak Ag⋯OW interactions, forming layers parallel to the ab plane.

The Ag^I atom is trigonally coordinated by two N atoms from two 2‐­amino­pyrimidine ligands and one O atom from one benzoate anion, giving zigzag polymeric chains with an [–Ag—N—C—N–]_n backbone running along the a axis. It is proposed that intermolecular hydrogen bonding drives the formation of the chain polymer.     

catena‐Poly­[[di‐μ‐benzoato‐κ4O:O′‐disilver(I)]‐μ‐N,N′‐bis(2‐fluoro­benzyl­idene)­butane‐1,4‐di­amine‐κ2N:N′]

The title complex, [Ag₂(C₇H₅O₂)₂(C₁₈H₁₈F₂N₂)]_n, is a dinuclear silver(I) compound with one inversion centre between pairs of Ag atoms and another at the mid‐point of the central C—C bond in the butane‐1,4‐diamine moiety. Each of the smallest repeat units consists of two silver(I) cations, two benzoate anions and one N,N′‐bis(2‐fluorobenzyl­idene)­butane‐1,4‐di­amine Schiff base ligand. Each Ag^I ion is three‐coordinated in a trigonal configuration by two O atoms from two benzoate anions and one N atom from a Schiff base ligand. The di‐μ‐benzoato‐disilver(I) moieties are linked by the bridging Schiff base ligand, giving zigzag polymeric chains with an [–Ag⋯Ag—N—C—C—C—C—N–]_n backbone running along the b axis.     

catena‐Poly­[[(di‐2‐pyridyl­amine)­silver(I)]‐μ‐nicotinato] and catena‐poly­[[(di‐2‐pyridyl­amine)silver(I)]‐μ‐2,6‐di­hydroxy­benzoato]

In catena‐poly­[[(di‐2‐pyridyl­amine‐κ²N,N′)silver(I)]‐μ‐nico­tinato‐κ²N:O], [Ag(C₆H₄NO₂)(C₁₀H₉N₃)]_n, the Ag^I atom is tetracoordinated by two N atoms from the di‐2‐pyridyl­amine (BPA) ligand [Ag—N = 2.3785 (18) and 2.3298 (18) Å] and by one N atom and one carboxyl­ate O atom from nicotinate ligands [Ag—N = 2.2827 (15) Å and Ag—O = 2.3636 (14) Å]. Bridging by nicotinate N and O atoms generates a polymeric chain structure, which extends along [100]. The carboxyl O atom not bonded to the Ag atom takes part in an intrachain C—H⋯O hydrogen bond, further stabilizing the chain. Pairs of chains are linked by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to generate ribbons. There are no π–π interactions in this complex. In catena‐poly­[[(di‐2‐pyridyl­amine‐κ²N,N′)silver(I)]‐μ‐2,6‐di­hydroxy­benzoato‐κ²O¹:O²], [Ag(C₇H₅O₄)(C₁₀H₉N₃)]_n, the Ag^I atom has a distorted tetrahedral coordination, with three strong bonds to two pyridine N atoms from the BPA ligand [Ag—N = 2.286 (5) and 2.320 (5) Å] and to one carboxyl­ate O atom from the 2,6‐di­hydroxy­benzoate ligand [Ag—O = 2.222 (4) Å]; the fourth, weaker, Ag‐atom coordination is to one of the phenol O atoms [Ag⋯O = 2.703 (4) Å] of an adjacent moiety, and this interaction generates a polymeric chain along [100]. Pairs of chains are linked about inversion centers by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to form ribbons, within which there are π–π interactions. The ribbons are linked about inversion centers by pairs of C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and additional π–π interactions between inversion‐related pairs of 2,6‐di­hydroxy­benzoate ligands to generate a three‐dimensional network.     

Tetra­kis(μ2‐1,8‐naphthyridine)‐1:2κ4N:N′;3:4κ4N:N′‐bis­(μ2‐salicylato)‐1:4κ2O:O′;2:3κ2O:O′‐tetrakis­(salicylic acid)‐1κO,2κO,3κO,4κO‐tetra­silver(I)(4 Ag—Ag)

The title complex, [Ag₄(C₇H₅O₃)₂(C₈H₆N₂)₄(C₇H₆O₃)₄], lies about an inversion centre and has a unique tetra­nuclear structure consisting of four Ag^I atoms bridged by four N atoms from two 1,8‐naphthyridine (napy) ligands to form an N:N′‐bridge and four O atoms from two salicylate (SA) ligands to form an O:O′‐bridge. The Ag atoms have distorted octa­hedral coordination geometry. The centrosymmetric Ag₄ ring has Ag—Ag separations of 2.772 (2) and 3.127 (2) Å, and Ag—Ag—Ag angles of 107.70 (4) and 72.30 (4)°. All SA hydroxy groups take part in intra­molecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonding. In the crystal packing, the napy rings are oriented parallel and overlap one another. These π–π inter­actions, together with weak inter­molecular C—H⋯O contacts, stabilize the crystal structure.     

Low‐dimensional compounds containing cyano groups. I. catena‐Poly[[[dicyanoargentato(I)‐κN]bis(4‐methylpyridine‐κN)copper(II)]‐μ‐dicyanoargentato(I)‐κ2N:N′]

The structure of the title compound, [Cu(C₆H₇N)₂{Ag(CN)₂}₂]_n, is made up of neutral zigzag chains of [–NC–Ag–CN–Cu(4‐Mepy)₂{Ag(CN)₂}–NC–Ag–CN–] (4‐Mepy is 4‐methyl­pyridine). Neighbouring chains are linked by weak argentophilic interactions, with Ag?Ag distances of 3.2322 (12) Å. The Cu atom, which lies on a twofold rotation axis, is pentacoordinated by one monodentate Ag(CN)₂^? anion [Cu—N 1.985 (3) Å], the atoms of which lie on the same rotation axis, and by bridging di­cyano­argentate anions [2 × Cu—N 2.0827 (19) Å], with Ag atoms on inversion centres. The coordination polyhedron is completed by two 4‐Mepy mol­ecules [2 × Cu—N 2.038 (2) Å], which occupy the axial positions of a distorted trigonal bipyramid.

The Ag ions are bridged by the 3‐amino‐2‐chloro­pyridine ligands into helical chains. Adjacent uniform chiral chains are further interlinked through the NO₃ bridges into an interesting two‐dimensional coordination network in the solid.

The crystal structure of catena‐poly­[[tri‐n‐butyl­tin]‐μ‐3‐(1‐naph­thyl­amino­carbonyl)­acrylato‐κ²O¹:O³], [Sn(C₄H₉)₃(C₁₄H₁₀NO₃)]_n, is composed of polymeric chains wherein the metal center exhibits a distorted trigonal‐bipyramidal geometry, with three n‐butyl groups defining the trigonal plane [mean Sn—C 2.133 (7) Å] and the axial positions being occupied by the carboxyl­ate O atoms of two different N‐(1‐naphthyl)­maleamate ligands with inequivalent Sn—O distances [2.167 (4) and 2.457 (4) Å]. The N‐(1‐naphthyl)­maleamate fragment forms an essentially planar seven‐membered ring involving an intramolecular N—H?O hydrogen bond.     

Poly­[[bis­(pyridine‐κN)copper(II)]‐μ3‐5‐hydroxy­isophthalato‐κ3O:O′:O′′]

In the title compound, [Cu(C₈H₄O₅)(C₅H₅N)₂]_n or [Cu(OH‐BDC)(py)₂]_n (where OH‐H₂BDC is 5‐hydroxy­isophthalic acid and py is pyridine), the Cu atoms are coordinated by two N atoms from the pyridine ligands and by three O atoms from hydroxy­isophthalate ligands in a highly distorted triangular bipyramidal environment, with Cu—O distances in the range 1.941 (4)–2.225 (5) Å and Cu—N distances of 2.014 (6) and 2.046 (6) Å. The [Cu(OH‐BDC)]_n two‐dimensional network is built up from interlocking 22‐, 15‐ and eight‐membered rings via sharing of Cu atoms and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. Consolidation of the packing structure is achieved by edge‐ or point‐to‐face C—H⋯π interactions and offset or slipped π–π stacking interactions.     

catena‐Poly[[[N,N′‐bis­(salicyl­idene)propane‐1,3‐diaminato]cobalt(III)]‐μ‐azido] and catena‐poly[[[N,N′‐bis(salicyl­idene)propane‐1,3‐diaminato]cobalt(III)]‐μ‐thio­cyanato]

The two title complexes, catena‐poly[[{2,2′‐[1,3‐propane­diylbis(nitrilo­methyl­idyne)]diphenolato}cobalt(III)]‐μ‐azido], [Co(C₁₇H₁₆N₂O₂)(N₃)]_n, (I), and catena‐poly[[{2,2′‐[1,3‐propane­diylbis(nitrilo­methyl­idyne)]diphenolato}cobalt(III)]‐μ‐thio­cyanato], [Co(C₁₇H₁₆N₂O₂)(NCS)]_n, (II), are isomorphous polynuclear cobalt(III) compounds. In both structures, the Co^III atom is six‐coordinated in an octa­hedral configuration by two N atoms and two O atoms of one Schiff base, and two terminal N or S atoms from two bridging ligands. The [N,N′‐bis­(salicyl­idene)propane‐1,3‐diaminato]cobalt(III) moieties are linked by the bridging ligands, viz. azide in (I) and thio­cyanate in (II), giving zigzag polymeric chains with backbones of the type [–Co—N—N—N—Co]_n in (I) or [–Co—N—C—S—Co]_n in (II) running along the c axis.     

4‐Chloro­aceto­phenone [1‐(4‐methoxyphenyl)­ethyl­idene]­hydra­zone

The crystal structure of the title mixed azine, C₁₇H₁₇ClN₂O, contains four independent mol­ecules, A–D, and mol­ecule B is disordered. All four mol­ecules have an N—N gauche conformation, with C—N—N—C torsion angles of 136.5 (4), 137.0 (4), ?134.7 (4) and ?134.7 (4)°, respectively. The phenyl rings are also somewhat twisted with respect to the plane defined by C_ipso and the imine bond. On average, the combined effect of these twists results in an angle of 64.7° between the best planes of the two phenyl rings. Arene–arene double T‐contacts are the dominant intermolecular inter­action. The methoxy‐substituted phenyl ring of one azine mol­ecule interacts to form a T‐contact with the methoxy‐substituted phenyl ring of an adjacent mol­ecule and, similarly, two chloro‐substituted phenyl rings of neighboring mol­ecules interact to form another T‐contact. The only exception is for mol­ecule B, for which the disorder leads to the formation of T‐­contacts between methoxy‐ and chloro‐substituted phenyl rings. The prevailing structural motif of T‐contact formation between like‐substituted arene rings results in a highly dipole‐parallel‐aligned crystal structure.     

Poly­[[[(1,10‐phenanthroline‐κ2N,N′)­zinc(II)]‐μ3‐5‐hydroxy­isophthalato‐κ4O,O′:O′′:O′′′] monohydrate]

In the title compound, {[Zn(C₈H₄O₅)(C₁₂H₈N₂)]·H₂O}_n or {[Zn(OH‐BDC)(phen)]·H₂O}_n (where OH‐H₂BDC is 5‐hydroxy­isophthalic acid and phen is 1,10‐phenanthroline), the Zn atoms are coordinated by two N atoms from the phen ligands and by four O atoms from hydroxy­isophthalate ligands in a highly distorted octahedral geometry, with Zn—O distances in the range 2.042 (4)–2.085 (5) Å and Zn—N distances of 2.133 (5) and 2.137 (5) Å. The {[Zn(OH‐BDC)(phen)]·H₂O}_n infinite zigzag polymer forms a helical chain of [Zn₂(OH‐BDC)₂]_n units. Face‐to‐face π–π interactions (3.60–3.75 Å) occur between two phen rings belonging to the same helical chain. Consolidation of the packing structure is achieved by O—H⋯O hydrogen‐bonding interactions between the carboxyl­ate O atoms, the hydroxyl group and the water mol­ecule, forming two‐dimensional sheets.     

Poly[tetrasodium(I)‐tetra‐μ2‐bis(butane‐1,4‐diyldioxy)borato‐μ2‐1,4‐butane­diol]

In the title compound, [Na₄(C₈H₁₆BO₄)₄(C₄H₁₀O₂)]_n, there are two coordination types for the four independent Na⁺ cations: two Na⁺ cations bond to six diolate O atoms [Na—O = 2.305 (2)–2.609 (2) Å], while the other two are five‐coordinate via one 1,4‐butane­diol [2.289 (2) and 2.349 (3) Å] and four diolate O atoms [2.295 (2)–2.408 (2) Å]. Corresponding to this, there are three‐ and four‐coordinate diolate O atoms, the latter bridging Na atoms. The 1,4‐butane­diol mol­ecules lie on inversion centres. The boron stereochemistry shows minor local perturbations from its usual tetrahedral state [B—O = 1.457 (4)–1.503 (4) Å]. The resulting polymer packs as sheets parallel to the (10) plane crosslinked by the butane­diol mol­ecules. The structure was solved using data from a multiple crystal.     

Bis{μ‐2‐[(2,3‐dichloro­phenyl)­amino]­benzoato‐κO}di‐μ2‐ethoxo‐octa­methyl­di‐μ3‐oxo‐tetra­tin(IV)

The title compound, [Sn₄(CH₃)₈(C₁₃H₈Cl₂NO₂)₂(C₂H₅O)₂O₂], is a centrosymmetric dimer, with three linearly fused four‐membered Sn—O—Sn—O rings. The coordination poly­hedron of the Sn atom bonded to the carboxyl­ate can be described as trigonal–bipyramidal distorted toward square‐pyramidal. That of the second Sn atom is similar, but the distortion towards square‐pyramidal geometry is greater. The Sn—O and Sn—C distances are 2.020 (2)–2.226 (2) and 2.096 (4)–2.114 (4) Å, respectively. The benzene rings of the 2‐[(2,3‐dichloro­phenyl)­amino]benzoate ligand subtend an angle of 50.49 (17)°; the conformation of the ligand is stabilized by intra­molecular N—H⋯Cl and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The structure is assembled viaπ–π stacking inter­actions to form chains parallel to [10].     

catena‐Poly[[dicyanamido(5,5′‐dimethyl‐2,2′‐bipyridine‐κ2N,N′)copper(II)]‐μ‐dicyanamido‐κ2N1:N5]

In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Cu(C₂N₃)₂(C₁₂H₁₂N₂)]_n, the Cu^II atom adopts a distorted square‐pyramidal geometry, the basal plane of which is formed by two N atoms of the bi­pyridine ligand, one N atom of a bidentate dicyan­amide anion and one N atom of a monodentate dicyan­amide anion [Cu—N = 1.9760 (15)–2.0157 (15) Å]. The apical position is occupied by an N atom of a bidentate dicyan­amide anion, located 2.2468 (16) Å from the Cu atom, thus forming a one‐dimensional polymeric chain.     

Two isomers of 2,4‐di­benzyl‐8‐azabicyclo­[3.2.1]­octan‐3‐ol

The crystal structures of the title compounds, 2α,4α‐di­benzyl‐3α‐tropanol (2α,4α‐di­benzyl‐8‐methyl‐8‐aza­bi­cyclo­[3.2.1]­octan‐3α‐ol), C₂₂H₂₇NO, (I), and 2α,4α‐di­benzyl‐3β‐tropanol (2α,4α‐di­benzyl‐8‐methyl‐8‐aza­bi­cyclo­[3.2.1]­octan‐3β‐ol), C₂₂H₂₇NO, (II), show that both compounds have a piperidine ring in a chair conformation and a pyrrolidine ring in an envelope conformation. Isomer (I) is asymmetric, the benzyl groups having different orientations, whereas isomer (II) is mirror symmetric, and the N and O atoms, the C atom attached to the hydroxy group, and the methyl C atom attached to the N atom lie on the mirror plane. In the crystal structures of both (I) and (II), the mol­ecules are linked together by intermolecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds to form chains that run parallel to the a direction in (I) and parallel to b in (II).     

(E)‐2‐[2‐(1‐Naphthyl)­vinyl]‐3‐tosyl‐2,3‐di­hydro‐1,3‐benzo­thia­zole

The title compound, C₂₆H₂₁NO₂S₂, which consists of a benzo­thia­zole skeleton with α‐naphthyl­vinyl and tosyl groups at positions 2 and 3, respectively, was prepared by palladium–copper‐catalyzed heteroannulation. The E configuration of the mol­ecule about the vinyl C=C bond is established by the benzothiazole–naphthyl C—C—C—C torsion angle of 177.5 (4)°. The five‐membered heterocyclic ring adopts an envelope conformation with the Csp³ atom 0.380 (6) Å from the C₂NS plane. The two S—C [1.751 (4) and 1.838 (4) Å] and two N—C [1.426 (5) and 1.482 (5) Å] bond lengths in the thia­zole ring differ significantly.     

catena‐Poly[[silver(I)‐μ‐[(E)‐1,2‐bis(2‐pyridyl)ethylene‐N:N′]] nitrate]

In the title complex, {[Ag(C₁₂H₁₀N₂)]NO₃}_n, the Ag atom, which is in a linear AgN₂ geometry, is surrounded by two trans‐related N atoms of two bpe ligands [Ag—N = 2.173 (3) and 2.176 (3) Å; bpe is trans‐1,2‐bis(2‐pyridyl)­ethyl­ene]. The bpe ligands bridge neighbouring Ag atoms to form zigzag polymeric chains in the lattice. These adjacent one‐dimensional zigzag chains are extended into a three‐dimensional supramolecular array by strong interchain π?π interactions between the pyridyl rings of adjacent chains.     

catena‐Poly­[[tetrakis(2‐allyl­tetrazole‐κN4)‐tetra‐μ‐chloro‐tricopper(II)]‐di‐μ‐chloro]

In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Cu₃Cl₆(C₄H₆N₄)₄]_n, there are three Cu atoms, six Cl atoms and four 2‐allyl­tetrazole ligands in the asymmetric unit. The polyhedron of one Cu atom adopts a flattened octahedral geometry, with two 2‐allyl­tetrazole ligands in the axial positions [Cu—N4 = 1.990 (2) and 1.991 (2) Å] and four Cl atoms in the equatorial positions [Cu—Cl = 2.4331 (9)–2.5426 (9) Å]. The polyhedra of the other two Cu atoms have a square‐pyramidal geometry, with three basal sites occupied by Cl atoms [Cu—Cl = 2.2487 (9)–2.3163 (8) and 2.2569 (9)–2.3034 (9) Å] and one basal site occupied by a 2‐allyl­tetrazole ligand [Cu—N4 = 2.028 (2) and 2.013 (2) Å]. A Cl atom lies in the apical position of either pyramid [Cu—Cl = 2.8360 (10) and 2.8046 (9) Å]. The possibility of including the tetrazole N3 atoms in the coordination sphere of the two Cu atoms is discussed. Neighbouring copper polyhedra share their edges with Cl atoms to form one‐dimensional polymeric chains running along the a axis.
