Di­propyl 3,6‐di­phenyl‐1,2‐di­hydro‐1,2,4,5‐tetrazine‐1,2‐di­carboxyl­ate

The title compound, C₂₂H₂₄N₄O₄, was prepared from propyl chloro­formate and 3,6‐di­phenyl‐1,2‐di­hydro‐s‐tetrazine. This reaction yields the title compound rather than di­propyl 3,6‐di­phenyl‐1,4‐di­hydro‐s‐tetrazine‐1,4‐di­carboxyl­ate. The 2,3‐di­aza­buta­diene group in the central six‐membered ring is not planar; the C=N double‐bond length is 1.285 (2) Å, and the average N—N single‐bond length is 1.401 (3) Å, indicating a lack of conjugation. The ring has a twist conformation, in which adjacent N atoms lie 0.3268 (17) Å from the plane of the ring. The mol­ecule has twofold crystallographic symmetry.     

Di‐μ‐sulfido‐bis[diaqua(18‐crown‐6)­barium(II)]–saccharin (1/2)

The mol­ecule of the title compound {systematic name: di‐μ‐sulfido‐bis[di­aqua(1,4,7,10,13,16‐hexaoxa­cyclo­octade­cane‐κ⁶O)barium(II)] bis­[1,2‐benzisothiazol‐3(2H)‐one 1,1‐dioxide]}, [Ba₂S₂(C₁₂H₂₄O₆)₂(H₂O)₄](C₇H₅NO₃S)₂, lies on an inversion centre. The Ba^II atom encapsulated by the 18‐crown‐6 ring is coordinated by the six O atoms of the crown, two water O atoms and two bridging S atoms. The four‐membered ring composed of the Ba^II atoms and the bridging S atoms makes a dihedral angle of 67.1 (1)° with the crown‐ether ring. The aromatic ring system of the saccharin moiety is essentially planar. The packing is built up from layers of the mol­ecules and is stabilized by three intermolecular O—H?O hydrogen bonds.     

Calcium(II) meso‐2,3‐di­phenyl­succinate heptahydrate

The title compound, [Ca(C₁₆H₁₂O₄)(H₂O)₆]·H₂O, adopts a conformation about the central C—C bond that places the two carboxylate groups in an anti orientation. The crystal consists of layers of two‐dimensional arrays of 2,3‐di­phenyl­succinate dianions which are linked by bridging Ca²⁺ cations. The unit cell contains two Ca²⁺ cations in an unusual four‐membered Ca—O—Ca—O ring in which the bridging O atoms belong to water mol­ecules rather than carboxyl­ates, i.e. poly­[[[di‐μ‐aqua‐bis­[penta­aqua­calcium(II)]]‐μ‐(meso‐2,3‐di­phenyl­succinato‐O:O′)] succinate dihydrate].     

cis‐[1,4‐Bis(di­phenyl­phosphino)­butane](μ‐tetra­thio­tungstato)­palladium(II) N,N′‐di­methyl­form­amide hemisolvate hemihydrate

In the title compound, [1,4‐bis(di­phenyl­phosphino)­butane‐2κ²P,P′]­di‐μ‐thio‐1:2κ⁴S‐di­thio‐1κ²S‐palladium(II)­tung­sten(VI) N,N′‐di­methyl­form­amide hemisolvate hemihydrate, [PdWS₄­(C₂₈H₂₈P₂)]·0.5C₃H₇NO·0.5H₂O, the Pd atom is coordinated by two S atoms from the distorted‐tetrahedral [WS₄]²⁻ anion and two P atoms from the dppb mol­ecule [dppb is 1,4‐bis(di­phenyl­phos­phino)­butane] in an approximately square‐planar configuration. A puckered seven‐membered ring is formed by the Pd atom and the dppb ligand.     

cis‐Di­chloro(5,8‐dioxa‐2,11‐dithia[12]‐o‐cyclo­phane)­palladium(II)

The preparation and crystal structure of the title compound, cis‐di­chloro­[6,9‐dioxa‐3,12‐di­thia­bi­cyclo­[12.4.0]­octadeca‐14,‐16,­18(1)‐tri­ene‐S,S′]­palladium(II), [PdCl₂(C₁₄H₂₀O₂S₂)], are described. The Pd atom has a square‐planar environment, coordinated to two S atoms of the di­thia­dioxa macrocycle and to two Cl^? ions. The non‐coordinating O atoms are oriented away from the metal coordination plane. Upon complexation, a bicyclic chelate structure, which consists of a seven‐ and an eleven‐membered ring, is formed.     

N‐Ethylpyridinium bis(2‐thioxo‐1,3‐dithiole‐4,5‐dithiolato)nickelate

The title compound, (C₇H₁₀N)[Ni(C₃S₅)₂] or (Etpy)[Ni(dmit)₂] (where Etpy is the N‐ethyl­pyridinium cation, C₇H₁₀N⁺, and dmit is the 2‐thio­xo‐1,3‐di­thiole‐4,5‐di­thiol­ate dianion, C₃S₅²⁻), crystallizes in the P space group with two mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit. The [Ni(dmit)₂]⁻ monoanion has a planar D_2h conformation, with the central Ni atom and the four coordinated S atoms forming an NiS₄ square plane. The six‐membered ring of the Etpy cation also shows good planarity, as expected. There are two main types of disorder in the two Etpy cations. Several short intermolecular interactions are present, such as S⋯S, Ni⋯S and Ni⋯Ni, which help to form the enhanced three‐dimensional structure of the crystal.     

1,3‐Thia­zolidine derivatives from regioselective [2+3]‐cyclo­additions of azomethine yl­ides with thio­ketones

The title compounds, namely di­methyl (2RS)‐2,3‐di­phenyl‐1,3‐thia­zolidine‐5‐spiro‐2′‐adam­antane‐4,4‐di­carboxyl­ate methanol sol­vate, C₂₈H₃₁NO₄S·0.275CH₄O, and di­methyl (4RS)‐3,4‐di­phenyl‐1,3‐thia­zolidine‐5‐spiro‐9′‐(9′H‐fluorene)‐2,2‐di­car­box­ylate, C₃₁H₂₅NO₄S, were obtained from dipolar [2+3]‐cyclo­additions of an azo­methine yl­ide with adamantane­thione and thio­fluorenone, respectively. The structures show that the choice of thio­ketone affects the regioselectivity of the cyclo­addition. The asymmetric unit of the former structure contains two mol­ecules of the thia­zolidine derivative plus a site for a partial occupancy (55%) methanol mol­ecule. O—H⋯O and C—H⋯O interactions link two of each of these entities into closed centrosymmetric hexamers. The five‐membered ring in each structure has an envelope conformation.     

(E)‐1‐(2′‐Deoxy‐β‐d‐ribo­furan­osyl)‐2,4‐di­fluoro‐5‐(2‐iodo­vinyl)­benzene

This analysis of the title compound, C₁₃H₁₃F₂IO₃, establishes the orientation of (E)‐5‐(CH=CH—I) as antiperiplanar (ap) to the C—C bond (5–6 position) of the 2,4‐di­fluoro­phenyl ring system, with the (E)‐5‐(CH=CH—I) H atom located in close proximity (2.17 Å) to the F4 atom of the 2,4‐di­fluoro­phenyl moiety.     

Derivatives of 4‐(2‐hydro­xy­lphenyl)‐2‐phenyl‐2,3‐di­hydro‐1,5‐benzothiazepine

In the structures of 2‐(4‐chloro­phenyl)‐4‐(2‐hydroxyphenyl)‐2,3‐di­hydro‐1,5‐benzo­thia­zepine, C₂₁H₁₆ClNOS, 4‐(2‐hy­droxy­phenyl)‐2‐(4‐tolyl)‐2,3‐di­hydro‐1,5‐ben­zo­thia­zepine, C₂₂H₁₉NOS, and 4‐(2‐hydroxyphenyl)‐2‐(3‐methoxy­phenyl)‐2,3‐di­hydro‐1,5‐benzo­thia­zepine, C₂₂H₁₉NO₂S, the central seven‐membered heterocyclic rings adopt twist‐boat conformations in which the N atoms are involved in strong intramolecular hydrogen bonds with the hydroxyl H atoms, resulting in six‐membered rings.     

(5S*,6R*)‐1,7‐Dioxa­di­spiro­[4.0.4.4]­tetra­decane‐2,8‐dione

The title compound, C₁₂H₁₆O₄, (I), was prepared by oxidation of (5S*,6R*)‐1,7‐di­oxa­di­spiro­[4.0.4.4]­tetra­decane‐2,8‐diol us­ing silver(I) carbonate and posesses a cis configuration of the two five‐membered‐ring lactones fused spiro to the six‐membered carbocycle, which has a chair conformation. It represents an exceptional structure for bis‐tetra­hydro­furan units, which are interesting building blocks in natural products. The synthesis, spectroscopic data and X‐ray structural analysis are described. The crystal contains discrete mol­ecules separated by normal van der Waals distances.     

Poly[[bis(dimethyl sulfoxide‐κO)tris(thiocyanato‐κN)­manganese(II)]‐μ‐thio­cyanato‐κ2N:S‐mercury(II)]

In the title complex, [MnHg(SCN)₄(C₂H₆SO)₂]_n, each Hg atom is tetrahedrally coordinated to four S atoms of the SCN ions, while each Mn atom is octahedrally coordinated to four N atoms of the SCN ions and two O atoms of the di­methyl sulfoxide mol­ecules which occupy the trans positions. Each pair of Hg and Mn atoms is bridged by one SCN ion. Two Mn atoms, two Hg atoms and four SCN ions make a 16‐membered ring which organises into a two‐dimensional network. The di­methyl sulfoxide ligands are extended perpendicular to the plane on both sides.     

5,5‐Di­methoxy‐2‐phenoxy‐1,3,2‐dioxaphosphorinane 2‐oxide

In the title compound, C₁₁H₁₅O₆P, the six‐membered dioxa­phospho­rinane ring of the cyclic phosphate triester exists in a distorted chair conformation, with the phenoxy group in an axial position. The phenyl ring and both methoxy groups are in a trans–gauche orientation with respect to the 1,3,2‐di­oxa­phospho­rinane ring. In the phosphate group, a significant deformation from the ideal tetrahedral shape is observed. The crystal structure is stabilized by a three‐dimensional network of C—H⋯O interactions.     

A novel gallium arsenate organically templated by propane‐1,3‐diyldi­ammonium with a ULM‐3‐type open framework: [Ga3(AsO4)3(OH)F](C3H12N2)·H2O

Crystals of the title oxy­fluorinated gallium arsenate, viz. tris­(arsenato)­fluoro­hydro­xotrigallium ­propane‐1,3‐diyldiammonium monohydrate, were synthesized hydro­thermally at 453 K under autogenous pressure, using 1,3‐di­amino­propane as the structure‐directing agent. The solid crystallizes in the ortho­rhombic system and its structure was determined from single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis. The structure is similar to that of gallium or aluminium phosphates with the ULM‐3 structural type and is built up from a three‐dimensional anionic framework composed of corner‐linked hexameric Ga₃(AsO₄)₃(OH)F units. The Ga atoms have an octahedral [GaO₄(OH)F] or trigonal‐bipyramidal [GaO₄(OH) and GaO₄F] coordination. These units are connected to one another and to the tetrahedral AsO₄ groups via OH or F bridges. The three‐dimensional framework contains ten‐ring channels along [010], crosslinked by eight‐ring channels along [110] and [10]. The diprotonated organic species and water mol­ecules reside within the ten‐ring channels. The cation is linked to the framework via an N—H⋯F hydrogen bond. A strong N—H⋯O hydrogen bond links the cation and the water mol­ecule.     

A structural hierarchy in the hydrogen‐bonded adduct N,N′‐di­methyl­piperazine–tartaric acid–water (1/2/2): an N‐component N‐dimensional structure (N = 3) with substructures having N = 1 and 2

In the hydrated adduct N,N′‐di­methyl­piperazine‐1,4‐diium bis(3‐carboxy‐2,3‐di­hydroxy­propanoate) dihydrate, [MeNH(CH₂CH₂)₂NHMe]²⁺·2(C₄H₅O₆)^?·2H₂O or C₆H₁₆N₂²⁺·2C₄H₅O₆^?·2H₂O, formed between racemic tartaric acid and N,N′‐di­methyl­piperazine (triclinic P, Z′ = 0.5), the cations lie across centres of inversion. The anions alone form chains, and anions and water mol­ecules together form sheets; the sheets are linked by the cations to form a pillared‐layer framework. The supramolecular architecture thus takes the form of a family of N‐dimensional N‐component structures having N = 1, 2 or 3.     

(Z)‐7‐Chloro‐3‐[(3‐chloro­phenyl)­methyl­idene]‐4‐p‐tosyl‐3,4‐di­hydro‐2H‐1,4‐benzoxazine

In the title compound, C₂₂H₁₇Cl₂NO₃S, the mol­ecule is a substituted 3,4‐di­hydro‐2H‐1,4‐benzoxazine compound which has three phenyl rings which are essentially planar. The 3,4‐di­hydro‐2H‐oxazine part of the mol­ecule is fused to the benzo ring and has a half‐boat conformation; the dihedral angle between the planar part of the oxazine ring and the benzo ring is 10.2 (2)°. The (3‐chloro­phenyl)­methyl­idene substituent has a Z configuration in relation to the ring N atom of the oxazine moiety. Interestingly, the p‐toluenesulfonyl (p‐tosyl) substituent on the ring N atom protrudes away from the 3‐­chloro­phenyl substituent thus avoiding any steric interaction.     

3‐[4‐(3,4‐Di­methyl­phenyl)‐1,3‐thia­zol‐2‐yl]‐2‐(2‐hydroxy­phenyl)‐1,2,3,4‐tetra­hydro­quin­az­olin‐4‐one

The facile one‐pot synthesis of the title compound, C₂₅H₂₁N₃O₂S, is described. The six‐membered 1,3‐di­aza ring is puckered with an axial phenyl group in the 2‐position. Intermolecular hydrogen bonding between hydroxyl and ketonic O atoms produces infinite one‐dimensional chains in the a direction.     

6‐(3,4‐Di­fluoro­benzoyl)‐3‐[2‐(4‐pyridyl)­ethyl]‐1,3‐benzo­thia­zol‐2(3H)‐one

A new type of benzo­thia­zolinone derivative with potential pharmacological activity, viz. 6‐(3,4‐di­fluoro­benzoyl)‐3‐[2‐(4‐pyridyl)­ethyl]‐1,3‐benzo­thia­zol‐2(3H)‐one, C₂₁H₁₄F₂N₂O₂S, has been prepared and studied by NMR, IR and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction techniques. The mol­ecule is not planar, the pyridine and di­fluoro­benzene moieties being located above and below the benzo­thia­zole ring system. The carbonyl O atoms are involved in an intramolecular hydrogen‐bond‐type interaction.     

Diaquabis(1,3‐propanediamine‐κ2N,N′)nickel(II) bis(sulfanilate)

The title compound, [Ni(C₃H₁₀N₂)₂(H₂O)₂](C₆H₆NO₃S)₂, contains alternating layers of sulfanilate anions and di­aqua­bis(1,3‐propane­di­amine)­nickel(II) cations. The Ni atom lies on an inversion centre and is hexacoordinated by the 1,3‐propane­di­amine ligands, which function as N,N′‐bidentate ligands, and the water mol­ecules, which are in a trans arrangement. The sulfanilate anions are arranged in layers, with the sulfonate and amine groups directed towards opposite sides of the layer. The structure is stabilized by a network of hydrogen bonding between the O and N atoms of the sulfanilate anions, the water mol­ecules, and the N atoms of the 1,3‐propane­di­amine ligands.     

Bis[N‐(2‐hydroxy­ethyl)‐β‐alaninato]copper(II)

The Cu^II ion in the title complex, [Cu(C₅H₁₀NO₃)₂] or [Cu(He‐ala)₂] [He‐ala = N‐(2‐hydroxy­ethyl)‐β‐alaninate], resides at the inversion centre of a square bipyramid comprised of two facially arranged tridentate He‐ala ligands. Each He‐ala ligand binds to a Cu^II ion by forming one six‐membered β‐alaninate chelate ring in a twist conformation and one five‐membered ethanol­amine ring in an envelope conformation, with Cu—N = 2.017 (2) Å, Cu—O_COO = 1.968 (1) Å and Cu—O_OH = 2.473 (2) Å. The [Cu(He‐ala)₂] mol­ecules are involved in a network of O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming layers parallel to the (10) plane. The layers are connected into a three‐dimensional structure by van der Waals inter­actions, so that the mol­ecular centres form pseudo‐face‐centered close packing.     

[1,3‐Bis(di­phenyl­phosphino)prop­ane]­tri­chloro­oxorhenium(V)

Tri­chloro­oxo­[1,3‐prop­ane­diyl­bis­(di­phenyl­phosphine)‐P,P′]rhen­ium(V), [Re­Cl₃­O­(C₂₇­H₂₆P₂)], crystallizes with four formula units per unit cell. The crystal structure consists of neutral complexes of [ReOCl₃(dppp)] [dppp is 1,3‐bis(diphenylphosphino)propane] packed by H?π‐ring interactions. The Re atom is octahedrally coordinated to the oxo anion, three Cl atoms and two P atoms from the dppp ligand. The six‐membered ring formed by the bidentate dppp ligand and the rhenium metal centre is in a chair conformation. The title compound is an intermediate in the synthesis of bis(dppp) complexes of rhenium.
