A novel one‐dimensional zigzag coordination polymer of copper(II) with di­methyl­glyoxime

A novel metal‐organic based polymeric complex, namely catena‐poly­[[bis(μ₄‐di­methyl­glyoximato)­bis(μ₂‐di­methyl­gly­oxi­mato)­bis­(di­methyl­glyoxime)­tetracopper(II)] diperchlorate dihydrate], {[Cu₄(dmg)₂(Hdmg)₂(H₂dmg)₂](ClO₄)₂·2H₂O}_∞ (H₂dmg is di­methyl­glyoxime, C₂H₈N₂O₂), has been synthesized and characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction methods. The complex is a one‐dimensional zigzag chain coordination polymer, in which the tetranuclear repeat unit is a centrosymmetric Cu₄ moiety coordinated to di­methyl­glyoxime ligands only. These units are linked by double Cu—O—Cu bridges in a centrosymmetric rectangular ­junction.     

A 1:1 adduct between di­methyl­tin dibromide and N‐methyl­pyrrolidinone (NMP)

The title compound, di­bromo­di­methyl(N‐methyl­pyrrolidin‐2‐one‐O)­tin(IV), [SnBr₂(CH₃)₂(C₅H₉NO)], exhibits pentacoordination of the Sn atom, with long and short Sn—Br bonds [2.6737 (4) and 2.5256 (4) Å, respectively]. The distorted trigonal–bipyramidal coordination polyhedron has two methyl groups and one Br atom in the equatorial plane, the second Br atom and the N‐methyl­pyrrolidinone (NMP) ligand occupying the apical positions.     

Bis(3,5‐di­methyl­pyrazole‐κN2)silver(I) nitrate

The two independent bis(3,5‐di­methyl­pyrazole)silver(I) cations in crystalline [Ag(C₅H₇N₂)₂]NO₃ display N—Ag—N angles of 175.51 (14) and 174.44 (13)°, and an average Ag—N distance of 2.124 (5) Å. The nitrate anion is situated between [Ag(C₅H₇N₂)₂]⁺ units and interacts via hydrogen bonds with the NH groups. The two 3,5‐di­methyl­pyrazole ligands are trans about the silver center. Only a small deviation from linearity is observed in the coordination around silver.     

[5‐Bromo‐N‐(2‐carboxylatophenyl)salicylideniminato]dimethyltin(IV)

The structure of the title di­methyl­tin(IV) complex, [2‐(5‐bromo‐2‐oxido­benzyl­idene­amino)­benzoato‐κ³O,N,O′]di­methyl­tin(IV), [Sn(CH₃)₂(C₁₄H₈BrNO₃)], features centrosymmetric dimers disposed about a central Sn₂O₂ core. Each Sn centre has seven‐coordinate pentagonal–bipyramidal geometry, taking into account two moderately long Sn—O contacts about an inversion centre [2.679 (4) and 2.981 (4) Å]. The methyl groups are in an axial orientation.     

1,6‐Interactions between di­methyl­amino and aldehyde groups in two bi­phenyl derivatives

The title compounds, 2‐(di­methyl­amino)­bi­phenyl‐2′‐carbox­aldehyde, C₁₅H₁₅NO, and 2‐(di­methyl­amino)­bi­phenyl‐2′,6′‐dicarbox­aldehyde, C₁₆H₁₅­NO₂, show similar 1,6‐interactions [N?C=O 2.929 (3) to 3.029 (3) Å] between the di­methyl­amino and aldehyde groups located in the ortho positions of the two rings, which lie at 58.1 (1)–62.4 (1)° to each other.     

2′‐Hydroxy‐4′′‐dimethylaminochalcone

The title compound, 3‐[4‐(di­methyl­amino)­phenyl]‐1‐(2‐hydroxy­phenyl)­prop‐2‐en‐1‐one, C₁₇H₁₇NO₂, is a chalcone derivative substituted by 2′‐hydroxyl and 4′′‐di­methyl­amino groups. The crystal structure indicates that the aniline and hydroxy­phenyl groups are nearly coplanar, with a dihedral angle of 10.32 (16)° between their phenyl rings. The molecular planarity of this substituted chalcone is strongly affected by the 2′‐hydroxyl group.     

Di­chloro­bis(3,5‐di­methyl­pyrazole‐N2)methyl­phenyl­tin(IV)

The title compound, [SnCl₂(CH₃)(C₆H₅)(C₅H₈N₂)₂], was obtained by reaction of di­chloro­methyl­phenyl­tin(IV) and 3,5‐di­methyl­pyrazole (dmpz) in chloro­form, and was recrystallized from acetone. The structure consists of octahedral all‐trans [SnMePhCl₂(dmpz)₂] mol­ecules, with the Sn atom coordinated to two C [Sn—C 2.127 (5) and 2.135 (4) Å], two Cl [Sn—Cl 2.5753 (8) Å] and two N atoms [Sn—N 2.357 (3) Å]. The dmpz ligands, bound to the metal through their unprotonated N atoms, form weak intra‐ and intermolecular hydrogen bonds with the Cl ligands via their NH groups, giving rise to a polymeric chain along the c axis.     

Ranitidine hydro­chloride,a polymorphic crystal form

In the title compound, di­methyl­({5‐[2‐(1‐methyl­amino‐2‐nitro­eth­enyl­amino)­ethyl­thio­methyl]‐2‐furyl}­methyl)­ammon­ium chloride, C₁₃H₂₃N₄O₃S⁺·­Cl^?, protonation occurs at the di­methyl­amino N atom. The ranitidine mol­ecule adopts an eclipsed conformation. Bond lengths indicate extensive electron delocalization in the N,N′‐di­methyl‐2‐nitro‐1,1‐ethenedi­amine system of the mol­ecule. The nitro and methyl­amino groups are trans across the side chain C=C double bond, while the ethyl­amino and nitro groups are cis. The Cl^? ions link mol­ecules through hydrogen bonds.     

[N,N′‐Bis(5‐bromo­salicyl­idene)‐1,3‐di­amino­propane]­nickel(II) and [N,N′‐­bis(5‐chloro­salicyl­idene)‐1,3‐­di­amino­propane]copper(II)

The title compounds, {4,4′‐di­bromo‐2,2′‐[1,3‐propane­diyl­bis(nitrilo­methyl­idyne‐N)]­diphenolato‐O,O′}nickel(II), [Ni(C₁₇­H₁₄­Br₂­N₂O₂)], and {4,4′‐di­chloro‐2,2′‐[1,3‐pro­pane­diyl­bis­(ni­trilo­methyl­idyne‐N)]­di­phen­ol­ato‐O,O′}­copper(II), [Cu­(C₁₇­H₁₄­Cl₂­N₂O₂)], lie on crystallographic twofold axes. In both structures, the metal coordination sphere is a tetrahedrally distorted square plane formed by the four‐coordinate N₂O₂ donor set of the Schiff base imine–phenol ligands. In the Ni compound, the Ni—O and Ni—N distances are 1.908 (3) and 1.959 (4) Å, respectively, while in the Cu compound, the Cu—O and Cu—N distances are 1.907 (2) and 1.960 (2) Å, respectively. The two Schiff base moieties, which themselves are nearly planar, are inclined at an angle of 29.26 (7)° for the Ni compound and 29.26 (5)° for the Cu compound.     

A benzopyran derivative substituted at position 3

In (E)‐3‐{[(di­phenoxy­phospho­ryl)­methyl­hydrazono]­methyl}‐4H‐1‐benzo­pyran‐4‐one, C₂₃H₁₉N₂O₅P, the benzo­pyran–methyl­hydrazone moiety is planar and the two phenoxy phenyl rings are inclined at angles of 21.29 (6) and 89.33 (5)°. Weak C—H?O and C—H?N intramolecular interactions exert some influence on the planarity and orientation of that moiety.     

Di­chloro­bis­(di­benzyl­amino)­bis­(tetra­hydro­furan)­zirconium(IV) toluene hemisolvate

The title complex, [ZrCl₂(C₄H₈O)₂(C₁₄H₁₄N)₂]·0.5C₇H₈, was prepared in an unusual manner by utilizing [Mg{N(CH₂Ph)₂}₂] as a ligand transfer reagent. The Zr atom lies in a distorted octahedral environment where steric repulsion from the large di­benzyl­amino ligands leads to a widening of the N—Zr—N angle [99.95 (9)°] and corresponding compression of other angles [Cl—Zr—Cl 160.95 (3)° and O—Zr—O 78.22 (7)°]. This distortion is compared with those found in the previously determined structures of the di­methyl­amino and diethyl­amino analogues.     

The pentacoordinate titanium complex [TiCl2(NMe2)2(HNMe2)]

Amido complexes of titanium are useful reagents in a variety of syntheses and as precursors for chemical vapour deposition of TiN. The title compound, di­chloro­bis­(di­methyl­amido)(di­methyl­amine)­titanium(IV), [TiCl₂(C₂H₆N)₂(C₂H₇N)], crystallizes with one mol­ecule in the asymmetric unit. The neutral complex shows an unusual fivefold coordination of the titanium centre with a distorted trigonal–bipyramidal geometry and the di­methyl­amine mol­ecule occupying an axial position.     

trans‐[1,3‐Bis(2,4‐di­methyl­phenyl)­imidazolidin‐2‐yl­idene]­di­chloro­(tri­phenyl­phosphine‐κP)­palladium(II)

The title complex, [PdCl₂(C₁₉H₂₂N₂)(C₁₈H₁₅P)], shows slightly distorted square‐planar coordination of the palladium(II) metal center. The Pd—C bond distance between the N‐heterocyclic ligand and the metal atom is 2.008 (3) Å. The dihedral angle between the two di­methyl­phenyl ring planes is 33.17 (13)°.     

Charge‐transfer complexes of 4‐(di­methyl­amino)­pyridine with 2,4‐, 3,4‐ and 3,5‐di­nitro­benzoic acid

In the three title crystal structures 4‐(di­methyl­amino)­pyridinium 2,4‐di­nitro­benzoate, (I), 4‐(di­methyl­amino)­pyri­dinium 3,4‐di­nitro­benzo­ate, (II), and 4‐(di­methyl­amino)pyri­din­ium 3,5‐di­nitro­benzo­ate, (III), all C₇H₁₁N₂⁺·C₇H₃N₂O₆^?, the ions are connected by an N—H?O hydrogen bond. Dihedral angles between the pyridine and phenyl rings are 69.9 (1), 26.7 (1) and 56.2 (1)° in (I), (II) and (III), respectively. Donor–acceptor π–π stacking is observed in (II) and (III), but not in (I).     

2,4‐Di­nitro­phenyl­hydrazones of 2,4‐di­hydroxy­benz­aldehyde, 2,4‐di­hydroxy­aceto­phenone and 2,4‐di­hydroxy­benzo­phenone

In 2,4‐di­hydroxy­benz­aldehyde 2,4‐di­nitro­phenyl­hydrazone N,N‐di­methyl­form­amide solvate {or 4‐[(2,4‐di­nitro­phenyl)­hydrazono­methyl]­benzene‐1,3‐diol N,N‐di­methyl­form­amide solvate}, C₁₃H₁₀N₄O₆·C₃H₇NO, (X), 2,4‐di­hydroxy­aceto­phenone 2,4‐di­nitro­phenyl­hydrazone N,N‐di­methyl­form­am­ide solvate (or 4‐{1‐[(2,4‐di­nitro­phenyl)hydrazono]ethyl}benzene‐1,3‐diol N,N‐di­methyl­form­amide solvate), C₁₄H₁₂N₄O₆·C₃H₇NO, (XI), and 2,4‐di­hydroxy­benzo­phenone 2,4‐di­nitro­phenyl­hydrazone N,N‐di­methyl­acet­amide solvate (or 4‐­{[(2,4‐di­nitro­phenyl)hydrazono]phenyl­methyl}benzene‐1,3‐diol N,N‐di­methyl­acet­amide solvate), C₁₉H₁₄N₄O₆·C₄H₉NO, (XII), the molecules all lack a center of symmetry, crystallize in centrosymmetric space groups and have been observed to exhibit non‐linear optical activity. In each case, the hydrazone skeleton is fairly planar, facilitated by the presence of two intramolecular hydrogen bonds and some partial N—N double‐bond character. Each molecule is hydrogen bonded to one solvent mol­ecule.     

[N,N′‐Bis­(salicyl­idene)‐2,2‐di­methyl‐1,3‐propane­diaminato]­nickel(II) and [N,N′‐bis­(salicyl­idene)‐2,2‐di­methyl‐1,3‐propane­diaminato]copper(II)

In the title compounds, {2,2′‐[2,2‐di­methyl‐1,3‐propane­diyl­bis­(nitrilo­methyl­idyne)]­diphenolato‐κ⁴N,N′,O,O′}nickel(II), [Ni(C₁₉H₂₀N₂O₂)], and {2,2′‐[2,2‐di­methyl‐1,3‐propane­diyl­bis­(nitrilo­methyl­idyne)]­diphenolato‐κ⁴N,N′,O,O′}copper(II), [Cu(C₁₉H₂₀N₂O₂)], the Ni^II and Cu^II atoms are coordinated by two iminic N and two phenolic O atoms of the N,N′‐bis­(salicyl­idene)‐2,2‐di­methyl‐1,3‐propane­diaminate (SALPD^2?, C₁₇H₁₆N₂O₂^2?) ligand. The geometry of the coordination sphere is planar in the case of the Ni^II complex and distorted towards tetrahedral for the Cu^II complex. Both complexes have a cis configuration imposed by the chelate ligand. The dihedral angles between the N/Ni/O and N/Cu/O coordination planes are 17.20 (6) and 35.13 (7)°, respectively.     

{2,6‐Bis­[(di­methyl­amino)­methyl]­phenyl‐N2,C1,N6}di­phenyl­tin(II) bromide monohydrate

In the title compound, [Sn(C₆H₅)₂(C₁₂H₁₉N₂)]Br·H₂O, the Sn^IV atom lies on a twofold axis and is coordinated by a C and two N atoms from the 2,6‐bis­[(di­methyl­amino)­methyl]­phenyl ligand in a tridentate fashion and by two phenyl groups. The resulting geometry is intermediate between square pyramidal and trigonal bipyramidal, with three C atoms in equatorial and the two N atoms in axial positions. The main deformation from ideal trigonal‐bipyramidal geometry is seen for the N—Sn—N angle [152.18 (7)°]. The Br^? anion and the water solvate mol­ecule are on an inversion centre and twofold axis, respectively. They form an infinite chain of Br?H—O—H?Br hydrogen bonds [Br?O 3.529 (2) Å] without contributing to the primary coordination sphere of the Sn atom.     

rac‐ and meso‐3,3′‐Bis(3,5‐di­methyl­phenyl)‐3H,3′H‐2,2′‐biindenyl­idene‐1,1′(2H,2′H)‐dione

In the rac isomer of the title compound, C₃₄H₂₈O₂, the two C—Ph_{di­methyl­phenyl} bond axes make an angle of 58.7 (1)°. There is no short contact between the two 3,5‐di­methyl­phenyl rings, although the dihedral angle between them is 4.93 (7)°. The meso isomer has a center of symmetry at the middle of the C=C bond, and the two C—Ph_{di­methyl­phenyl} bond axes are antiparallel to one another.     

The chloro­(diethyl­amino)­di­methyl­tin dimer

The title compound, di‐μ‐diethyl­amido‐N:N‐bis­[chloro­di­methyl­tin(IV)], consists of discrete [Sn₂Cl₂(CH₃)₄(C₄H₁₀N)₂] dimer mol­ecules, with Sn atoms linked by bridging diethyl­amido groups. The coordination geometry about the metal atom is distorted trigonal bipyramidal, with the two methyl C atoms and one N atom in the equatorial plane, and the Cl and second N atom in axial positions.     

Dichloro[1,1′‐(5,9‐dithia‐2,12‐diazoniatrideca‐1,12‐diene‐1,13‐diyl)dinaphthalen‐2‐olato‐κ2O,O′]dimethyltin(IV) acetonitrile solvate

Reaction of the potentially hexadentate ligand 1,9‐bis(2‐hydroxy‐1‐naphthalene­methyl­imino)‐3,7‐di­thia­nonane with di­methyl­tin chloride gave the title 1:1 adduct, in which the long ligand wraps around the SnCl₂Me₂ unit and in which the stereochemistry is fully trans. This compound crystallizes from aceto­nitrile as the 1:1 solvate [Sn(CH₃)₂(C₂₉H₃₀N₂­O₂S₂)Cl₂]·­C₂H₃N. During the reaction, the hydroxyl protons move to the N atoms. Most of the chemically equivalent bond lengths agree to within experimental uncertainty, but the Sn—Cl bond that is inside the ligand pocket is substantially longer than the Sn—Cl bond that points away from the long ligand [2.668 (1) versus 2.528 (1) Å]. The O—Sn—O angle is 166.0 (1)°. Comparison of the Sn—O, C—O and aryl C—C bond lengths with those of related compounds shows that the most important resonance forms for the Schiff base aryl­oxide ligand are double zwitterions, but that the uncharged resonance forms having carbonyl groups also contribute significantly.
