The salt crystallizes in the P-1 space group with a = 7.9174(13) ?, b = 11.1583(18) ?, c = 11.2600(18) ?, α = 107.490(3)°, β = 91.631(3)°, and γ = 94.980(3)°. The stoichiometry between TTF and [Pt(mnt)₂] is 1:1. The structure of (TTF)[Pt(mnt)₂] consists of alternating stacks of dimerised TTF⁺ cations and dimerised [Pt(mnt)₂]⁻ anions, linked together by many kinds of short contacts and hydrogen bonds.

Abstract  

The synthesis and Crystal structure are given for the bis (N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylendiammonium) octaiodo pentachloroantimonate (III) salt. An X-ray investigation has shown that the title compound crystallizes in a monoclinic system, space group P2₁/m with the following lattice parameters a = 9.786(2) Ǻ, b = 14.024(5) Ǻ, c = 14.336(3) Ǻ, β = 91.35(2)° and Z = 2. The structure was solved from 3085 independent reflections with R ₁ = 0.0402 and wR ₂ = 0.0952 and refined with 152 parameters. The structure shows a layer arrangement perpendicular to the [(b)\vec] \vec{b} -axis: planes of [SbCl₅]²⁻, I₃ ⁻ and I₅ ⁻ anions alternate with planes of [(CH₂)₂(NH(CH₃)₂)₂]²⁺ cations. The [SbCl₅]²⁻ square pyramids present an active lone electron pair (LEP) on the Sb atoms and they are interconnected by means of N–H···Cl hydrogen bond originating from [(CH₂)₂(NH(CH₃)₂)₂]²⁺ entities. The polyiodides (I₃ ⁻ and I₅ ⁻) anions form a planer zigzag polymeric chains via I···I linking interactions. These chains are linked to the [SbCl₅]²⁻ anions by a long range contact.

Abstract  

The new hybrid material, cobalt selenate templated by 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (abbreviated dabco), has been synthesised by the slow evaporation method at room temperature. Its crystal structure was investigated using single crystal X-ray diffraction data. It crystallises in the monoclinic system (space group P2₁/c) with the following unit-cell parameters: a = 12.9169(2) ?, b = 11.9101(2) ?, c = 12.4951(2) ?, β = 108.484(1)°, V = 1823.10(5) ?³ and Z = 4. The supramolecular structure of (C₆H₁₄N₂)[Co(H₂O)₆](SeO₄)₂ consists of isolated [Co(H₂O)]²⁺ and (C₆H₁₄N₂)²⁺ cations and (SeO₄)²⁻ anions linked together by three dimensional hydrogen-bond network. The infrared spectroscopy confirmed the presence of these different entities. The thermal behaviour of the precursor, studied by thermodiffractometry and thermogravimetric analyses, indicates that its decomposition proceeds through three stages giving rise to the cobalt oxide.

The crystal structure determination was carried out with MoKα X-ray data measured at 120(2) K. In the final refinement cycle the data/restraints/parameter ratios were 4124/0/258 and goodness-of-fit on F<sup>2</sup> = 1.0008. Final R indices for [I > 2σ(I)] were R<sub>1</sub> = 0.0501, wR<sub>2</sub> = 0.1007 and R indices (all data) R<sub>1</sub> = 0.0864, wR<sub>2</sub> = 0.11180. The largest electron density difference peak and hole were 0.241 and −0.232 e ?<sup>−3</sup>, respectively. The DKP rings in both molecules A and B have boat conformations with pseudo mm2 (C<sub>2v</sub>) symmetry if the N atoms and CH<sub>2</sub> groups are considered identical. In each case, the prow and stern of the boat are the α-carbons C(3) and C(6). The overall molecular symmetry of molecules A and B is approximately C<sub>2</sub> with the twofold symmetry axis of the DKP boat being maintained through the centre of the DKP ring. Details of the molecular geometry are compared with that of the parent compound cyclo(Gly-Gly) in which the DKP ring is planar with exact symmetry [`1] \bar{1} (C_i).     

Self-Assembly of One-Dimensional Coordination Polymer from Nickel(II) Macrocyclic Complex and Malonate Ligand

Abstract  

The reaction of [Ni(L)]Cl₂·2H₂O (L = 3.14-dimethyl-2,6,13,17-tetraazatricyclo[14,4,0^1.18,0^7.12]docosane) with malonic (H₂mal) acid yields a one-dimensional coordination polymer [Ni(L)(mal)₂]_n (1). The structure was characterized by X-ray crystallography, spectroscopic and magnetic susceptibility. Each nickel(II) ion has a distorted octahedral coordination environment with the four secondary amines of the macrocycle in which two carboxylate anions of the malonate ligand have assembled around each nickel center. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system C2/c with a = 19.487(4), b = 8.4143(12), c = 14.6036(18) ?, β = 102.232(11)°, V = 2340.2(6) ?³, Z = 4. Electronic spectrum of 1 exhibits a high-spin octahedral environment. The magnetic behavior of 1 reveals a weak intramolecular antiferromagnetic interaction with J values of −1.91(1) cm⁻¹.

Abstract  

A new coordination polymer [Ni₂(L)(H₂btec)]_n, (1) was obtained from the reaction of NiSO₄·6H₂O, macrocyclic ligand 3,6,9,17,20,23-hexaaza-29,30-dihydroxy-13,27-di-tert-butyl-tricyclo[23,3,1,1^11,15]triaconta-1(28),11,13,15(30),25,26-hexaene (H₂L), and 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid (H₄btec) in methanol. Its structure was determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. The crystal is monoclinic C2/c space group with cell parameters a = 20.4923(3) ?, b = 14.2389(3) ?, c = 14.5130(2) ?, β = 97.441(2)°, V = 4199.05(12) ?³, and Z = 8. The X-ray analysis shows that each Ni (II) cation is six-coordinated by an O₃N₃ donor set. The macrocyclic complex [Ni₂L] ²⁺ are bridged by H₂btec²⁻ anions to form 1D chains, which are further joined via N–H···O hydrogen bonds to yield a 3D supramolecular structure. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) for the complex is discussed.
