In contrast to 1 the structure of 2 contains a [Sb₈S₁₃]^2– chain anion with Sb₁₂S₁₂ pores measuring about 8.9 × 11.5 Å. Only if longer Sb–S distances are considered as bonding interactions a layered anion is formed. The chain anion [Sb₆S₁₀]^2– in compound 3 is unique and is constructed by corner‐sharing SbS₃ pyramids. Two symmetry‐related single chains consisting of alternating SbS₃ units and Sb₃S₃ rings are bound to Sb₄S₄ rings in chair conformation. Finally, in the structure of 4 the SbS₃ and SbS₄ moieties are joined corner‐linked to form a chain of alternating SbS₄ units and (SbS₃)₃ blocks. Neighboring chains are connected into sheets that contain relatively large Sb₁₀S₁₀ heterorings. The sheets are further connected by sulfur atoms generating four atoms thick double sheets.

The structural unit of NDUSe is a two‐dimensional uranyl selenate‐selenite sheets with a U/Se ratio of 1/2. In‐situ reaction of the L ‐cystine ligands gives two distinct products for the different acids used here. Where sulfuric acid is used, only H₃O⁺ cations are located in the interlayer space, where they balance the charge of the sheets, whereas where selenic acid is used, interlayer C₅H₆N⁺ cations result from the cyclization of the carboxyl groups of L ‐cystine, balancing the charge of the sheets.

Single crystals of two new modifications of [P(C₆H₅)₄]₂[Cu₂I₄] were obtained by reaction of granulated copper with iodine and [P(C₆H₅)₄]I in dry acetone under nitrogen atmosphere. They crystallise monoclinically, space group P2₁/n (No. 14), a = 11.550(6), b = 7.236(2), c = 27.232(13) Å, β = 98.13(3)°, V = 2253(2) ų, and Z = 2 ([P(C₆H₅)₄]₂[Cu₂I₄]-C), and space group Cc (No. 9), a = 17.133(5), b = 15.941(5), c = 18.762 (6) Å, β = 114.02(1)°, V = 4681(3) ų, and Z = 4 ([P(C₆H₅)₄]₂[Cu₂I₄]-D), respectively. In these compounds the [CuI₂]^? anions form dimers di-μ-iodo-diiodocuprate(I), which are either planar ( C ) or folded ( D ).

Two coordination polymers {[Cd(phen)](C₆H₈O₄)_3/3} ( 1 ) and {[Cd(phen)](C₇H₁₀O₄)_3/3} · 2H₂O ( 2 ) were structurally characterized by single crystal X‐ray diffraction methods. In 1 (C2/c (no. 15), a = 16.169(2)Å, b = 15.485(2)Å, c = 14.044(2)Å, β = 112.701(8)°, U = 3243.9(7)ų, Z = 8), the Cd atoms are coordinated by two N atoms of one phen ligand and five O atoms of three adipato ligands to form mono‐capped trigonal prisms with d(Cd‐O) = 2.271‐2.583Å and d(Cd‐N) = 2.309, 2.390Å. The [Cd(phen)] moieties are bridged by adipato ligands to generate {[Cd(phen)](C₆H₈O₄)_3/3} chains, which, via interchain π—π stacking interactions, are assembled into layers. Complex 2 (P1¯(no. 2), a = 9.986(1)Å, b = 10.230(3)Å, c = 11.243(1)Å, α = 66.06(1)°, β = 87.20(1)°, γ = 66.71(1)°, U = 955.7(2)ų, Z = 2) consists of {[Cd(phen)](C₇H₁₀O₄)_3/3} chains and hydrogen bonded H₂O molecules. The Cd atoms are pentagonal bipyramidally coordinated by two N atoms of one phen ligand and five O atoms of three pimelato ligands with d(Cd‐O) = 2.213—2.721Å and d(Cd‐N) = 2.329, 2.372Å. Through interchain π—π stacking interactions, the {[Cd(phen)](C₇H₁₀O₄)_3/3} chains resulting from [Cd(phen)] moieties bridged by pimelato ligands are assembled in to layers, between which the hydrogen bonded H₂O molecules are sandwiched.

Syntheses and crystal structures of [(C6H5CH2C5H4)2GdCl.THF]2 and (C6H5CH2C5H4)2ErCl.THF

[(C₆H₅CH₂C₅H₄)₂GdCl.THF]₂ (1) and (C₆H₅CH₂C₅H₄)₂ErCl.THF (2) were prepared by the reaction of LnCl₃ (Ln? Gd, Er) with benzylcyclopentadienyl sodium in THF and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, MS and thermal gravimetry. The crystal structures of both compounds were determined. Complex 1 is dimeric and its structure belongs to the monoclinic, P2₁/c space group with a=1.1432(2), b=1.2978(2), c=1.7604(3) nm, β=108.75(2), V=2.4732(9) nm³, Z=2(four monomers), D_c“1.54 g.cm^?3. R=0.0342 and R_w“0.0362. Complex 2 is monomer and its structure belongs to the orthorhombic, P2₁2₁2₁ space group with a=0.8645(2), b=1.1394(3), c=2.5289(4) nm, V=2.4919(9) nm³, Z=4, D_c“1.56 g.cm^?3. R=0.0514, R_w“0.0529. The determination of the crystal structure shows that in complex 1 the benzyl groups on the cyclopentadienyls coordinated to Gd³⁺ are located in the opposite direction (139°); in complex 2 the benzyl groups on the cyclopentadienyls coordinated to Er³⁺ are located in the same direction (6.5°).

Crystal Structures of Acid Hydrates and Oxonium Salts. 36 [1]. Selenic Acid Tetrahydrate. Ionic as (H₅O₂)₂SeO₄ in an Orthorhombic as well as a Tetragonal Form Low-melting selenic acid tetrahydrate has been studied for the first time by crystal structure analysis. Two forms have been observed, an orthorhombic one with space group Pnma and Z = 4 and a tetragonal one with space group P4 2₁c and Z = 2. The lattice parameters at ?150°C are a = 6.130(3), b = 12.776(6) and c = 9.299(5) Å for the orthorhombic and a = 7.676(4) and c = 6.378(3) Å for the tetragonal form. Both forms are oxonium salts, corresponding to (H₅O₂)₂SeO₄. The ions are hydrogen-bonded into a three-dimensional array. The bonds within the diaquahydrogen cations have O ?O distances of 2.422(5) and 2.425(4) Å. The tetragonal form is isotypic to the tetrahydrate of sulfuric acid.     

m -Terphenyl derivative of titanium(III): Cp2TiR (Cp=C5H5; R =2,6-(4-MeC6H4)2C6H3)

The title compound, Cp₂TiR (Cp=C₅H₅; R=2,6-(4-MeC₆H₄)₂C₆H₃), 1, was prepared by reaction of RLi with [Cp₂TiCl]₂. Compound 1 was characterized by elemental analysis, EPR, and single crystal X-ray crystallography. The title compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with the following unit cell dimensions: a=11.1466(7) Å, b=16.4429(11) Å, c=13.0786(8) Å; b=106.2040(10)^°;V=2301.9(3) ų. The EPR spectrum of 1 displays two signals, a high field signal at g=1.979 and a lower field signal at g=1.959. Significantly, 1 is a sterically encumbered m-terphenyl-stabilized trivalent titanocene paramagnetic complex and may be a practical one-electron reducing reagent.
