Ion selective and complexing properties of 1,5-bis[2-(dioxyphosphoryl-4-methoxy)phenoxy]-3-oxapentane dihydrate H₄M² · 2H₂O (I) were described. X-ray diffraction analysis for compound I was performed. The crystals are orthorhombic, a = 7.9818(16) ?, b = 30.553(6) ?, c = 9.0559(17) ?, V = 2208.5(8) ?³, Z = 4, space group Pnma, R = 0.0500 over 1372 reflections with I > 2??(I). In I, the H₄M² molecules are combined by hydrogen bonds (HB) with two crystallographically independent H₂O(7) and H₂O(8) molecules to give neutral H₄M² · 2H₂O aggregates. The HB between the phosphoryl and hydroxyl oxygen atoms of the aggregates and the donor O(7)-H??O(8) HB give rise to a layered structure. Conclusions about the Cu(H₂M²) compound structure were drawn based on the X-ray diffraction, DTA, and vibrational spectroscopy data.

Tin(IV) complexes with 2-hydroxybenz-(2-hydroxynaphth)aldehyde picolinoylhydrazones (H2Ps, H2Pnf). Crystal structure of [SnCl3(Ps · H)] · CH3OH and [SnCl3(Pnf · H)] · CH3OH

The reactions of SnCl₄ with picolinoylhydrazones of 2-hydroxybenz-(2-hydroxynaphth)aldehydes (H₂Ps, H₂Pnf) in CH₃OH gave non-electrolyte complexes [SnCl₃(Ps · H)] · CH₃OH (I) and [SnCl₃(Pnf · H)] · CH₃OH (II). The imide form of the ligand coordinated to Sn(IV) through the azomethine nitrogen atom and oxyazine and oxy oxygen atoms was proved by UV/Vis, IR, and ¹H NMR spectroscopy. The negative charge on the coordination unit thus arising is counterbalanced by the positive charge caused by the protonation of ligands at the pyridine nitrogen atom of the heterocycle. It was shown that dehydrochlorination of the complexes affords tin-containing species, which correlates with the presence of the corresponding peaks [SnCl₂(Ps)]⁺ and [SnCl₂(Pnf)]⁺ in their mass spectra. The molecular and crystal structures of complexes I and II were determined by X-ray diffraction.

Crystal structure and Raman spectra of [Fe(H2O)6]3+(ClO 4 ? )3·3H2O

Single crystal X-ray diffraction is used to study the structure of colorless crystals isolated from the saturated aqueous solution of trivalent iron perchlorate (TIP) in 67.5% perchloric acid. It is found that the compound crystallizes in the trigonal crystal symmetry; parameters of the hexagonal unit cell: a = b = 16.079(2) ?, c = 11.369(2) ?, ?? = ?? = 90°, ?? = 120°, space group R{ie907-1}(S ₆), Z = 6, ??_calc = 2.021 g/cm³. The structural form of the crystal hydrate is [Fe(H₂O)₆]³⁺(ClO ₄ ^? )₃·3H₂O. The structure contains two independent complex iron cations. Each of them is in the special position {ie907-2}, but retains the regular octahedral structure: average bond lengths are r(Fe-O) = 1.997(1) ?, {ie907-3}O-Fe-O bond angles differ from 90° by only 0.93°. Independent [Fe(H₂O)₆]³⁺ cations form short H-bonds (O??O 2.64 ?) with three crystallization water molecules and somewhat longer H-bonds (O??O 2.73 ?) with three ClO ₄ ^? anions. The ClO ₄ ^? anion is disordered over two positions with occupancies of 0.62(2) and 0.37(2). Both positions correspond to the general position. The outer-sphere crystallization water molecule is characterized by the tetrahedral direction of H-bonds, which it forms with two anions and two independent [Fe(H₂O)₆]³⁺ cations. All water molecules are in the general position. The Raman spectroscopic study of polycrystalline samples reveals weak bands belonging to the internal vibrations of two types of water molecules. The least broad bands are assigned to the transitions of crystallization water molecules whose symmetry is insignificantly lowered by two anion-molecular Hbonds. Anomalously broad bands are assigned to the transitions of a coordinated water molecule whose symmetry is more lowered by intermolecular and anion-molecular H-bonds.
