The isolated triiodide ion is almost linear (d(I–I) = 2.936(2) Å). The PNP cation obtains an hybrid conformation (∠(P–N–P) = 157.4(2)°). The asymmetrical Fe-(μ-N)–Fe stretching vibration is observed in the IR spectrum at 997 cm^–1, the symmetrical one is selectively enhanced in the resonance Raman (RR) spectrum at 478 cm^–1. The corresponding I–I stretching vibrations of the triiodide ion are present in the actual spectra at 134 (IR) and 115 cm^–1 (RR). An IR band at 334 cm^–1 is attributed to the asymmetrical Fe–N_azide stretching vibration.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structures of Sodium and Calcium ­Complexes with the Ligand N‐(2,6‐Dimethylphenyl)diphenylphosphinic Amide

The sodium complex [{Ph₂P(O)NH(2,6‐Me₂C₆H₃)}Na{Ph₂P(O)N(2,6‐Me₂C₆H₃)}]₂ ( 2 ) with the ligand N‐(2,6‐dimethylphenyl)diphenylphosphinic amide was synthesized involving the reaction of the neutral ligand [Ph₂P(O)NH(2,6‐Me₂C₆H₃)] ( 1 ) and sodium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide in toluene at 60 °C. The calcium complex [{Ph₂P(O)NH(2,6‐Me₂C₆H₃)CaI(THF)₃}I] ( 3 ) was obtained by the reaction between the neutral ligand 1 and anhydrous calcium diiodide in THF at ambient temperature. The solid‐state structures of the complexes were established by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis. In the solid‐state structure of 2 , the sodium ion is coordinated through the chelation of oxygen atom attached to the phosphorus atom. Two different P–N and P–O bond lengths are observed, which indicates that one ligand moiety is anionic, whereas the second one is neutral. In the solid‐state structure of 3 , the calcium atom adopts distorted octahedral arrangement through the ligation of two phosphinic amide ligands, three THF molecules, and one iodide ion.

Poly[di‐μ2‐methano­lato‐di‐μ2‐tetra­methoxy­borato‐disodium(I)]

In the polymeric title compound, [Na₂(C₄H₁₂BO₄)₂(CH₄O)₂]_n, the two independent sodium cations are bound by five O atoms. All the O atoms of one tetra­methoxy­borate anion bind cations, forming a tetra­meric cluster around a tetra­gonal inversion centre [Na—O = 2.2777 (18)–2.3907 (16) Å]. Two methanol O atoms bridge the two Na atoms [Na—O = 2.3590 (15)–2.4088 (18) Å] and provide the hydrogen‐bonding H atoms. The second tetra­methoxy­borate anion provides two O atoms to one Na atom [mean Na—O = 2.31 (2) Å] and two O atoms as donors for crosslinking hydrogen bonds to adjacent tetra­mers, which complete the three‐dimensional packing. The crystal was a treated as a racemic twin.     

Hexa‐μ2‐chloro‐μ4‐oxo‐tetrakis[(2‐ethyl­tetrazole‐κN4)copper(II)]

In the title molecular complex, [Cu₄Cl₆O(2‐EtTz)₄], where 2‐EtTz is 2‐ethyl­tetrazole (C₃H₆N₄), the central O atom is located on the symmetry site and is tetrahedrally coordinated to four Cu atoms, with Cu—O distances of 1.8966 (4) Å. A very slight distortion of Cu₄O from a regular tetrahedron is observed [two Cu—O—Cu angles are 108.76 (3)° and four others are 109.828 (13)°]. Each Cu atom is connected to three others via the Cl atoms, forming a slightly distorted Cl octahedron around the O atom, with O⋯Cl distances of 2.9265 (7) Å for Cl atoms lying on the twofold axis and 2.9441 (13) Å for those in general positions. The Cu atom has a distorted trigonal–bipyramidal environment, with three Cl atoms in the equatorial plane, and with the N atom of the 2‐ethyl­tetrazole ligand and the μ₄‐O atom in axial positions. The Cu atom is displaced out of the equatorial plane by ca 0.91 Å towards the coordinated N atom of the 2‐­ethyl­tetrazole ligand.     

Synthesis,Crystal Structure and Spectroscopic Properties of [2,13‐Bis(1‐naphthalenylmethyl)‐5,16‐dimethyl‐2,6,13,17‐tetraazatricyclo(14,4,01.18,07.12)docosane]copper(II) Diperchlorate Acetonitrile Disolvate

The N‐functionalized macrocyclic ligand 2,13‐bis(1‐naphthalenylmethyl)‐5,16‐dimethyl‐2,6,13,17‐tetraazatricyclo(14,4,0^1.18,0^7.12)docosane (L³) and its copper(II) complex were prepared. The crystal structure of [Cu(L³)](ClO₄)₂·2CH₃CN was determined by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction at 150 K. The copper atom, which lies on an inversion centre, has a square planar arrangement and the complex adopts a stable trans‐III configuration. The longer distance [2.081(2) Å] for Cu–N(tertiary) compared to 2.030(3) Å for Cu–N(secondary) may be due to the steric effect of the attached naphthalenylmethyl group on the tertiary nitrogen atom. Two perchlorate ions are weakly attached to copper in axial sites and are further connected to the ligand of the cation through NH ··· O hydrogen bonds [N ··· O 3.098 Å]. IR and UV/Vis spectroscopic properties are also described.

The average equatorial Cu—O bond length and the axial Cu—O bond length are 1.928 (3) and 2.486 (3) Å, respectively. The Cu—O(water) bond length is 2.865 (4) Å, so the compound could be described as having a weakly coordinating water molecule at each Cu^II ion and two solvent water molecules per dimetallic unit. The Cu...Cu distance and Cu—O—Cu angle are 3.0901 (10) Å and 87.56 (10)°, respectively. The molecules are linked into a sheet by O—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds parallel to the [001] plane.

The structural data of the distorted tetragonal pyramidale Mg(N_i)₄O moiety in [Mg(L)pc] and the solvates [Mg(L)pc] · S (S = CH₂Cl₂, thf, 2py) generally do not vary significantly: Mg–N_i/2.035(3) –2.061(3) Å, Mg–O/1.955(2)–2.000(3) Å. The Mg atom is displaced by ca. 0.52 Å out of the (N_i)₄ plane towards the O atom and the Mg–O–P moiety is bent (ca. 153°). [Zn(L)pc] · S crystallizes as a mixed crystal of equal parts of the conformer with a bent (155.1(3)°) and that of a quasi linear Zn–O–P moiety (174.2(3)°). Structural data of the Zn(N_i)₄O moiety: (Zn–N_i)_av: 2.024/2.013 Å; Zn–O: 2.050(4)/2.081(4) Å; Zn–(N_i)₄: 0.40/0.33 Å. In the crystal, the Mg and Zn derivates aggregate in double layers forming pairs. The pc ligands in the triclinic complexes with good overlap of the neighbouring pc ligands are in a waving conformation, while those in the monoclinic complexes with weak overlap are in a concave conformation.

Reaction between an aqueous ethanol solution of tin(II) chloride and that of 4‐propanoyl‐2,4‐dihydro‐5‐methyl‐2‐phenyl‐3 H‐pyrazol‐3‐one in the presence of O₂ gave the compound cis‐dichlorobis(4‐propanoyl‐2,4‐dihydro‐5‐methyl‐2‐phenyl‐3 H‐pyrazol‐3‐onato) tin(IV) [(C₂₆H₂₆N₄O₄)SnCl₂]. The compound has a six‐coordinated Sn^IV centre in a distorted octahedral configuration with two chloro ligands in cis position. The tin atom is also at a pseudo two‐fold axis of inversion for both the ligand anions and the two cis‐chloro ligands.

The keto–amine structure is favoured by through‐mol­ecule conjugation between the hydroxy O atom and imine N atom. The dihedral angle between the planes of the two aromatic rings is 10.79 (4)°.     

Cyclotridecanone 2,4‐dinitrophenylhydrazone

In cyclotridecanone 2,4‐dinitrophenylhydrazone, C₁₉H₂₈N₄O₄, the 13‐membered carbocycle exists in the triangular [337] conformation. The 2,4‐dinitrophenylhydrazone group is almost perpendicular to the 13‐membered ring, with a dihedral angle of 82.66 (2)° between the mean planes. The dinitrophenylhydrazone rings are packed parallel to each other and separated by 3.28 (1) Å. The NH group forms an intramolecular hydrogen bond to a nitro O atom, and there is a weaker C—H...O interaction between a cyclotridecane CH group and a symmetry‐related 4‐nitro O atom, with a C...O distance of 3.436 (2) Å and a 150° angle about the H atom. The structure, in combination with additional evidence, indicates that [337] is the preferred conformation of cyclotridecane and other simple 13‐membered rings.

Two cofacial phthalocyaninates are bonded together by a Re–Re bond with a Re–Re distance of 2.285(2) Å. The Re atoms are located distinctly outside the centre of the (N_iso)₄ planes by 0.426(3) Å. The Re–N_iso distance varies from 1.99(1) to 2.04(1) Å (average 2.02 Å). The pc^2– ligands are in an eclipsed conformation and concavely distorted. In the UV-VIS-NIR spectrum the B region is split into two bands of comparable intensity due to strong excitonic coupling. The Re–Re stretching vibration at 240 cm^–1 is selectively enhanced in the resonance Raman spectrum (λ_exc = 488 nm).     

4‐Fluoro‐2‐(phospho­no­methyl)­benzene­sulfonic acid monohydrate

The title compound, C₇H₈FO₆PS·H₂O, contains both phospho­nic and sulfonic acid functionalities. An extensive network of O—H?O hydrogen bonds is present in the crystal structure. The three acidic protons are associated with the phospho­nate group. Two protons experience typical hydrogen‐bond contacts with the sulfonate‐O atoms, while the third has a longer covalent bond of 1.05 (3) Å to the phospho­nate‐O atom and a short hydrogen‐bond contact of 1.38 (3) Å to the water O atom (all O—H?O angles are in the range 162–175°). The sulfonate group is positioned so that one S—O bond is nearly coplanar with the phenyl ring [torsion angle O—S—C—C ?8.6 (2)°]. The phospho­nate group is oriented approximately perpendicular to the ring [torsion angle P—C—C—C 99.2 (2)°] with one P—O bond anti to the benzyl C—C bond. The mol­ecules pack in layers in the b–c plane with the water mol­ecules in between adjacent pairs of inverted layers.     

N‐(2‐Hydroxyethyl)‐N‐methyldithiocarbamato Complexes of Nickel(II) with Phosphorus Donor Ligands

Planar nickel(II) complexes involving N‐(2‐Hydroxyethyl)‐N‐methyldithiocarbamate, such as [NiX(nmedtc)(PPh₃)] (X = Cl, NCS; PPh₃ = triphenylphosphine), and [Ni(nmedtc)(P‐P)]ClO₄(P‐P = 1,1‐bis(diphenylphosphino)methane(dppm); 1,3‐bis(diphenylphosphino)propane (1,3‐dppp); 1,4‐bis(diphenylphosphino)butane(1,4‐dppb) have been synthesized. The complexes have been characterized by elemental analyses, IR and electronic spectroscopies. The increased νC–N value in all the complexes is due to the mesomeric drift of electrons from the dithiocarbamate ligands to the metal atom. Single crystal X‐ray structure of [Ni(nmedtc)(1,3‐dppp)]ClO₄·H₂O is reported. In the present 1,3‐dppp chelate, the P–Ni–P angle is higher than that found in 1,2‐bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane‐nickel chelates and lower than 1,4‐bis(diphenylphosphino)butane‐nickel chelates, as a result of presence of the flexible propyl back bone connecting the two phosphorus atoms of the complex.

μ‐Oxido‐bis[(hexaethyldimethyl‐2,2′‐bidipyrrinato)iron(III)] ( 1 ) crystallizes as a mixed dichloromethane/water solvate as black plates in the triclinic system, space group P\bar{1} , with a = 14.536(3), b = 16.194(3), c = 25.883(5) Å, α = 98.89(3)°, β = 91.28(3)°, γ = 90.56(3)°, and Z = 2. In the crystal structure two distinct solvates 1· CH₂Cl₂ and 1· H₂O are present in equal ratio. In both cases the solvent is found in direct vicinity of the Fe–O–Fe subunit and is located within a binding pocket formed by the two helically distorted tetrapyrroles. Whereas the dichloromethane molecule is oriented within this pocket as a dipole with the positive end pointing towards the oxygen atom of the Fe–O–Fe subunit, the water molecule forms a hydrogen bond with this site, supported by additional weak interactions with adjacent N‐donor atoms.

In accordance to selection rules, data of ν(Re=O/–X) compare well with those of the complementary IR spectra. Because of the trans influence ν(Re=O) depends on the axial ligand X, ranging from 940 to 1010 cm^–1. The crystallographic characterization of [Re(O)(ReO₄)tpp] · CHCl₃ ( 1 ), [{Re(O)tpp}₂(μ‐O)] · py ( 2 ), (ⁿBu₄N)^trans[Re(O)₂tpp] ( 3 ), and (Et₄N)^trans[Re(O)₂tpp] · 2 H₂O ( 4 ) is described. The tpp centered Re atom is in a distorted octahedron of four N atoms of the porphyrinate and two axial O atoms in a mutual trans position. Average Re–N distances are 2.062 Å in 1 , 2.086 Å in 2 , 2.089 Å in 3 , and 2.082/2.086 Å in 4 . The Re–O distance of the terminal rhenyl group varies from 1.64(1) Å ( 1 ), 1.73(1)/1.70(1) Å ( 2 ) to 1.80(1) Å ( 4 ), that of the monodentate rhenate(VII) from 1.70(1) to 1.75(1) Å. The Re–O distances in the bridge of the linear O=Re–O–Re=O skeleton in 2 are 1.95(1)/1.89(1) Å. In 1 , with a bent O=Re–O^ ReO₃ moiety (∢(Re–O^ReO₃) = 143(1)°) and a mostly ionic coordinated rhenate(VII), these distances differ significantly (2.20(1) Å vs 1.75(1) Å). The porphyrinate in 1 is saucer‐shaped with a distal rhenate(VII), and the tpp centered Re atom is displaced by 0.31 Å out of the (N)₄ plane towards the rhenyl‐O atom. The distorted porphyrinates in 2 are rotated by 30.4(4)°, and the Re atoms are 0.1 Å out of their (N)₄ planes towards the terminal O atoms. In 3 and 4 the porphyrinates are almost planar with the Re atom in their centre.

The tris­(phenol) mol­ecules are linked by two O—H?O hydrogen bonds [H?O both 1.90 Å, O?O 2.7303 (14) and 2.7415 (15) Å, and O—H?O 173 and 176°] into sheets built from R(38) rings. Pairs of tris­(phenol) sheets are linked via the di­amine by means of a single O—H?N hydrogen bond [H?N 1.97 Å, O?N 2.7833 (16) Å and O—H?N 163°].
