A complex of buckminsterfullerene with sulfur,C60·2S8: synthesis and crystal structure

The C₆₀·2S₈ complex was prepared by reaction of buckminsterfullerene C₆₀ with sulfur in trichloroethylene and its single-crystal X-ray structure was studied at room temperature. Crystals of this compound are monoclinic, space groupC 2/c, a=20.90(1),b=21.10(1),c=10.537(9) Å, =111.29(7)°,Z=4,d _calc=1.89 g·cm^–3. The crystal structure of the C₆₀·2S₈ complex consists of packed fullerene molecules that form hexagonal channels along thec axis with eight-membered crown-shaped S₈ cyclic molecules inside the channels. The distances between the centers of neighboring fullerene molecules are 10.036(7), 10.636(7), and 10.537(9) Å. Each C₆₀ molecule is linked to eight S₈ molecules with ten shortened intermolecular contacts C...S 3.41(1)–3.52(2) Å. The average values of the C=C and C-C bond lengths are 1.32(3) and 1.47(3) Å, which attest to a significant degree of localization of electron density in the c₆₀ molecule.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

A neutral metal complex, [Pt(dddt)₂]° (1), has been obtained by oxidation of the [Pt(dddt)₂]^– anion with excess (Bu₄N)AuBr₄ in nitrobenzene. Crystallographic data for 1a=17.854(9) Å,b=18.409(9) Å,c=4.717(5) Å, =68.83(2)°, space group P2₁/n,Z=4,d _calc=2.55 g/cm³.

Summary The structure of [S(CH₂CH₂)₃S]₂[Re₂O₃(CN)₈]·4H₂O has been determined from three-dimensional x-ray diffraction data. The blue crystals are monoclinic, space group P2₁/c, with cell dimensionsa=9.431(2),b=10.879(2),c=16.217(3)Å, =110.84(2)°,Z=2 andD _m=2.11 gcm^–3. Anisotropic refinement by least-squares methods of 2483 observed reflections converged toR=0.050.The centrosymmetric binuclear anion has a linear O=Re–O–Re=O grouping with an eclipsed configuration for the cyano ligands. Bond distances: Re–O (terminal)=1.69(1), Re–O (bridging)=1.921(1) and Re–C_av=2.12(2)Å. Each Re atom is displaced by 0.11(2)Å towards the terminal oxygen atom giving a slight square-pyramidal distortion of the octahedral environment. The ring-constrained cation has C–S_av=1.82(2)Å with averaged bond angles C–S–C=101(1) and S–C–C=113(1)°.     

Solid-state structure of (+)-phendimetrazine bitartarate,an anorexic drug

The anorexic drug (+)-(2S, 3S, 4S)-phendimetrazine-2R, 3R)-bitartarate crystallized in the orthorhombic space groupP2₁2₁2₁ and at 293 Ka=7.7710(4),b=13.1379(7),c=15.9913(9) Å,V=1632.6(2) ų,Z=4,R(F)=0.062, andR _w (F)=0.026. A chair conformation 2,3-trans-1,4-oxazine ring with equatorially oriented 2-phenyl,3-methyl, andN-methyl substituents was found as predicted by an earlier reported solid-state CP-MAS¹³C-NMR investigation of crystalline (±)-phendimetrazine bitartarate. The O-CH₂-CH₂-N torsion angle of –58.4(6)° in the solid-state agrees nicely with the 56.0(7)° dihedral angle value estimated by¹H NMR spectroscopy for the major (equatorialN-methyl) phendimetrazine mesylate species in CD₂Cl₂ solution. A common solid-state conformational arrangement was found for (+)-phendimetrazine and a series of six other anorexic drugs structurally analogous to (+)-(2S, 3S)-pseudoephedrine. In this arrangement, NCH(Me)CPh has (S)-configuration, there is a (–)-gaucheMe-CH-C-Ph torsion angle, an antiperiplanarN-CH-C-Ph torsion angle, and the phenyl ring approximately eclipses the C-H bond of the attached carbon (e.g., H-C-C_ipso-C_ortho ca. 4° for 2,3-transphendimetrazine). Nonbonded interactions involving the 3-methyl and the 2-phenyl groups open up the H-C-C_ipso-C_ortho angle in a series of solid-state structures containing the epimeric (–)-(2R, 3S)-ephedrine moiety (e.g., ca. 45° for molecular mechanics calculated 2,3-cis-phendimetrazine model).

Hydrogen positions could be determined from differenceFourier syntheses. Strong weakening of some intense low order reflections by extinction was observed, their anisotropy depends on the crystal and on temperature.

Coordination chemistry of alkali and alkaline earth cations: Synthesis and crystal structure of potassium(benzo-15-crown-5)2 [3,5-dinitrobenzoate(3,5-dinitrobenzoic acid)2]

The interaction of K(35-Dnb) (35-Dnb=3,5-dinitrobenzoate) with benzo-15-crown-5 (B15C5) in ethanol yields a charge-separated sandwich structured complex [K(B15C5)₂]⁺[35-Dnb(35-DnbH)₂]^– even when equimolar amounts of reactants were used and no external 35-DnbH was added to the reaction mixture. The complex (KC₄₉H₅₁O₂₈N₆, FW=1211.1), is monoclinic,P2₁/c,a=11.063(2),b=10.680(1),c=46.548(8) Å, =91.629(2)⁰,Z=4,D ₀=1.485 g/cm³,D _c=1.468 g/cm³, CuK =1.5418 Å, =17.01 cm^–1, 2<130⁰,F(000)=2520,T=298 K. FinalR for the 6618 observed reflections was 0.071. In the sandwich moiety, the K⁺ is 10-coordinated through all the oxygens of the crown molecules (K⁺–O, 2.76–3.11 Å). The 35-Dnb anion lies 5.3 Å below the lower crown mean plane and is charge separated with respect to K⁺ (K⁺–O^–>7 Å) but undergoes strong hydrogen bonding (2.59 and 2.49 Å) through each carboxylate oxygen with the carboxylic protons of two separate 35-DnbH molecules.

Binding of calcium to amino acids (2)

Crystal structures ofN-acetyl-(DL)-methionine and its calcium adduct have been determined in order to examine possible calcium coordination through sulfur atom and conformation changes in the molecule upon calcium coordination. Crystals of the Ca adduct ofN-acetyl-(DL)-methionine are triclinic, space groupP¯1, a=11.356(2) Å,b=13.556(2) Å,c=15.035(3) Å,=95.42(1)°,=103.66(1)°, and=103.66(1)°, withZ=4 andd _o= 1.40 g cm^–3; 5834 reflections were collected at –125°C. TheN-acetyl-(DL)-methionine was also crystallized so that changes induced by the calcium coordination could be observed. TheN-acetyl-(DL)-methionine crystals are monoclinic, space groupP2₁/c,a=5.885(1) Å,b=9.290(1) Å,c=18.024(2) Å,=92.51 (1)°, withZ=4 andd _o=1.30 g cm^–3. Both structures were solved using direct methods and refined using full matrix least squares. The final values ofR andR _w were 0.051 and 0.053 for the Ca adduct and 0.048 and 0.039 for the free amino acid. All hydrogen atoms were located and included in the final calculations. Interatomic distances and angles of the four crystallographically independentN-acetylmethionine molecules in the Ca adduct are comparable to those of the free molecule, but the torsion angles change drastically. Calcium coordination through the sulfur atom is not found. The binding modes of all four independentN-acetylmethionine molecules in the Ca adduct are different. Of the two crystallographically independent calcium atoms one is 6 and the other is 7 coordinated. The calcium adduct shows several Ca-Ca bridges (with distances 4.722, 4.746, 5.503, and 6.265 Å) which can be described as a zigzag calcium chain or alternatively as slightly puckered sheets of calcium atoms parallel to theab plane atz O.

The Mg(II) cation is octahedrally coordinated to theN-atoms of four 4-methylpyridine and twotrans-coordinated isothiocyanato ligands in the host molecule. The conformations of the molecule are considerably different both in symmetry and in geometry in these two structures. The guest 4-methylpyridine molecules are disordered into channels which have different topology in these two clathrates resulting in different thermal stability.

The crystal structures of these four compounds were determined (respectively refined: 2-hydroxy-benzamide) by single crystal X-ray data. The refinements of the structure parameters by least squares methods yielded in all casesR<0.056. The hydrogen atoms were located by means of difference Fourier summations. The O-H ... O distances are 2.513 (1) Å in 2-hydroxy-benzamide (intramolecular) and 2.625 (1) Å in 2-hydroxy-N,N-dimethyl-benzamide (intermolecular). The two O-H ... S distances in 2-hydroxy-thiobenzamide are 2.904 (2) Å and 2.918 (2) Å (intramolecular, two molecules in the asymmetric unit) and 3.228 (2) Å in 2-hydroxy-N,N-dimethyl-thiobenzamide (intermolecular). Clear N-H ... O hydrogen bonds with 2.926 (1) Å and 3.006 (1) Å occur only in the structure of 2-hydroxy-benzamide (intermolecular).

The crystal structure of 4,4′-dipyridinium tetracyanooxothiocyanatorhenate(V)

Summary The light purple crystals of (4,4-dipyridinium) [ReO(NCS)(CN)₄] crystallize in the monoclinic space group P2₁/m witha=6.615(1),b=16.043(1),c=8.405(1) Å,=93.20(1)°,z=2. The anisotropic refinement of the 1770 observed reflections converged to R=0.041.The [ReO(NCS)(CN)₄]^2– ion has a distorted octahedral geometry. The rhenium atom is displaced by 0.30 Å out of the plane formed by the four carbon atoms towards the terminal oxo ligand. Bond distances: Re=0 =1.67(1), Re–N=2.12(1) and Re–C_av=2.11(1)Å. The thiocyanate ion is nitrogen bonded to the rhenium atom.
