Abstract  The gold(III) atom in [Au(NH₂CH₂CH₂NH₂)Cl₂]NO₃ is chelated by the ethylenediamine (en) ligand and the approximately square planar geometry is completed by two chloride atoms. Weak Au···O and Au···Cl contacts are noted above and below the square plane leading to a tetragonally distorted octahedron for the gold(III) center. Extensive charge-assisted hydrogen bonding of the type N–H···O leads to the formation of a 2-D array and layers are consolidated into a 3-D network via C–H···O and C–H···Cl contacts. The compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbca with a = 10.3380(11) ?, b = 8.2105(7) ?, c = 19.625(2) ?, and Z = 8. Index Abstract  Square planar complex cations form additional Au···O and Au···Cl interactions to form a tetragonally distorted octahedron for gold. The ionic components are connected into a 2-D array via charge-assisted N–H···O hydrogen bonding interactions.

Abstract  A single crystal structure determination of the complexes (2,2′-bipyridinium)[MBr₄], M = Zn, Hg and Co, have been carried out. It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁ /c. The structures consist of alternating stacks of anions and cations. They demonstrate a supramolecularity represented by the inter anion···cation, N–H···Br and C–H···Br interactions. The N–H···Br hydrogen bonding interactions, ca. 3.306(3)–3.213(7) ? and with angles spanning the range 154–156°, tying the MBr₄ anions to the cations. Intra- and interstack anion···anion interactions represented by Br···Br interactions, also exist. All these interactions lead to a 3D-network. Index Abstract
