Crystal and molecular structure of bis[pyridine-2-(N-cyanocarboxamidato)]aquocopper(II), Cu(C5H4NCONCN)2(OH2)

Bis[pyridine-2-(N-cyanocarboxamidato)]aquocopper(II), Cu(C₅H₄NCONCN)₂(OH₂), has been prepared and its i.r. spectrum and crystal structure have been determined. The crystals are triclinic (P¯1):a = 11·45(1),b = 10·35(1),c = 7·48(1) Å, = 110·9(1), = 102·2(2), = 108·9(1)°,Z = 2. The X-ray analysis, carried out using three-dimensional Patterson, Fourier and least-squares methods (finalR = 5·7%), showed copper(II) to be pentacoordinated, with two organic ligands chelating through their pyridine [Cu-N = 1·997(4), 1·989(4) Å] and amide nitrogen atoms [Cu-N = 1·980(7), 2·006(6) Å], and with one water molecule at a distance [Cu-OH₂ = 2·335(4) Å] sensibly longer than the usual Cu-O(2·0 Å) coordinate bonds. The coordination polyhedron can be described either as a distorted tetrahedron formed by the nitrogen atoms with an extra position occupied by water or as a trigonal bipyramid having water and two nitrogen atoms in the equatorial plane. The packing determining interactions are the hydrogen bonds formed by water, and a long Cu...N (3·420 Å) contact between the metal and a nitrogen atom from an adjacent molecule.The authors are indebted to Prof. Immirzi who kindly supplied his computer programmes.

Crystal Structure of pyridinium isopolymolybdate (C5H6N)2n[Mo4O13]n

Synthesis and crystal structure are described for pyridinium isopolymolybdate of chemical composition (C₅H₆N)_2n[Mo₄O₁₃]_n. The crystals are triclinic, space group P1, with the following unit‐cell parameters: a =8.2695(11) Å, b =10.544(4) Å, c =11.177(4) Å, α = 71.76(5)°, β = 89.68(3)°, γ = 78.79(3)°, V =906.4(4) ų, Z = 2 (chemical formula (C₅H₆N)₂[Mo₄O₁₃]), D _calcd = 2.755 g·cm^–3. Crystal structure was solved by Patterson methods and refined to a final R value 0.085 for 4045 independent reflections. The studied compound, considered in analogy to triclinic (NH₄)₂Mo₄O₁₃ as pyridinium polyoctamolybdate, is proposed to be better described as pyridinium isopolytetramolybdate (C₅H₆N)_2n[Mo₄O₁₃]_n. It seems that the proper coordination number of molybdenum (VI) ions is five, resulting in pyramidal coordination polyhedra [MoO₅]. Coordination polyhedra joined by common edges form tetramolybdate monomeric unit [Mo₄O₁₃]. The mers are connected by oxygen bridges Mo ‐ O ‐ Mo into infinite ribbon chains. Each two infinite chains are hold together by weaker intermolecular interactions. (© 2007 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Polymeric copper(II)-orotato complexes, [(C5H2N2O4)Cu(H2O)2]n

The compound [(C₅H₂N₂O₄)Cu(H₂O)₂]_n has been synthesized and its structure determined at room temperature. The primary coordination sphere at the Cu ion is square planar with the orotate dianion coordinating at the metal through heterocyclic nitrogen atom and adjacent oxygen of the carboxylate group, the remaining coordination sites are occupied by two water molecules. The orotate dianion is tricoordinated to one copper via N₁ and one oxygen of the carboxylato group and to another copper atom via the other oxygen of the carboxylato group. The coordination at copper is extended to five by the other oxygen of the carboxylate group of another orotate molecule. Thus, the molecules are associated to form chains, the carboxylato group acting as a bridge between the metal ions, the orotato-group being tridentate. The title compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group. P2₁/n₁ with a = 9.515(5), b = 6.925(2), c = 11.861(6) Å, = 95.285(9)°, D _calc = 2.17 g cm^–3, and z = 4.

The configuration about each N atom is planar rather than pyramidal. The two C-N bond lengths adjacent to the C=S bonds are both very short 1.330(4) and 1.336(4) Å indicating the influence of the C=S bond on C-N bond lengths. The six-membered piperidine ring has a classical chair conformation with average C-C distance of 1.511 (5)Å.     

Linear Optical Properties of the Nonlinear Optical Calcium and Strontium Tartrato-Antimonates (III), Ca[Sb2 {(+) - C4H2O6}2] x2H2O and Sr[Sb2{(+) - C4H2O6}2 ] x2H2O

The study of nonlinear optical properties of crystals requires a thorough knowledge of the linear optical properties: knowledge of the transparency range is necessary, some information about the optical activity is useful. Above all, high quality refractive indices (with errors less than 10^-4) and their dispersion are the most important basic data, as they enable a detailed analysis of phase-matching conditions of nonlinear optical processes and an estimation of the nonlinear optical potential of a new non-centrosymmetric crystal. Such high quality refractive indices are also necessary in other areas of nonlinear optics, for example for the evaluation of nonlinear optical measurements like measurements of Maker fringes. In this short communication we present the linear optical basis for nonlinear optical investigations of the title compounds. The Sr compound has been known for a long time; its morphological crystallography is already presented in the famous Chemische Krystallographie by Paul Groth (1910). The Ca salt was first synthesized 1983 by one of us (L.B.).
