Cu(II) and Pb(II) complexes of 4,4′-bipyridine-N,N′-dioxide have been prepared using a solvent-layering system. [Cu₂Cl₄(bpdo)₃(H₂O)₂] . 2(CH₃)₂SO (1) crystallises in P-1, a=8.731(2), b=8.943(2), c=14.408(3) ?, α=102.85(3), β=97.49(3), γ=109.77(3)°. The Cu(II) complex is a z-shaped discrete molecule with a DMSO molecule hydrogen bonded to the host through coordinated water molecule. Crystallisation of PbCl₂, PbBr₂ and PbI₂ with bpdo afforded isostructural 2D coordination polymers. [PbCl₂(bpdo)]_n is monoclinic, C2/c with a=16.3274(7), b=4.0708(1), c=18.6146(8) ?, β=93.73(1)°; [PbBr₂(bpdo)]_n is monoclinic, C2/c with a=16.403(3), b=4.2412(8), c=18.846(4) ?, β=92.59(3)° and [PbI₂(bpdo)]_n is monoclinic, C2/c with a=16.438(3), b=4.538(1), c=18.973(4) ?, β=91.04(3)°. The adjacent metal centres of these polymers are bridged by coordinated Cl⁻, Br⁻ or I⁻ anions as well as by bpdo ligands. These polymers possess no conventional hydrogen bonds.     

Nickel(II) and cobalt(II) nitrate and chloride networks with 2-aminopyrimidine

The coordination chemistry of 2-aminopyrimidine (PymNH₂) with nickel(II) and cobalt(II) nitrate and chloride is reported, including seven new X-ray crystal structures. Two [Ni(NO₃)₂(PymNH₂)₂(OH₂)] isomers were found (A: C2/c, a=13.3006(5), b=7.9727(3), c=28.5453(11), β=101.758(2), V=2963.48(19), Z=8 and B·1/2 acetone: P2₁/c, a=7.66060(10), b=10.6792(2), c=20.6790(3), β=100.2970(10), 1664.48(5), Z=4). In both cases one nitrate is monodentate and the other is chelating and the PymNH₂ ligands coordinate through ring nitrogen atoms. Hydrogen bonding results in double sheet structure for isomer A, and a three dimensional channeled network for isomer B. [Co(NO₃)₂(PymNH₂)₂(OH₂)] (C2/c, a=13.3507(2), b=7.99520(10), c=28.6734(3), β=102.3540(10), V=2989.77(7), Z=8) is isostructural to Ni isomer A. [CoCl₂(PymNH₂)] (Cmcm, a=3.6139(2), b=14.3170(7), c=12.9986(7), V=672.55(6), Z=4) is a sheet coordination network, consisting of corner-sharing chains of Co₂(μ-Cl)₂ bridged by PymNH₂ through ring nitrogen atoms; [CoCl₂(PymNH₂)₂] (C2/c, a=11.2774(6), b=6.5947(4), c=16.5687(9), β=92.269(3), V=1231.27(12), Z=4) is a tetrahedral molecule knit into a ribbon structures through pairs of hydrogen bonds. Isostructural trans-[NiCl₂(PymNH₂)₄] (C2/c, a=7.67760(10), b=18.7224(3), c=15.0418(2), β=99.6740(10), V=2131.41(5), Z=4) and trans-[CoCl₂(PymNH₂)₄] (C2/c, a=7.69120(10), b=18.5957(2), c=15.1091(2), β=99.5280(10), V=2131.14(5), Z=4) are simple octahedral molecules, with hydrogen-bonding producing sheet structures.

Abstract  

The addition of the N–H bond of the formamidine, ArN(H)C=NAr (Ar = C₆H₃Pr₂ⁱ-2,6), to the gallium(I) center of [K(tmeda)][:Ga(Ar-DAB)] (Ar-DAB={(Ar)NC(H)}₂) yields K[(Ar-DAB)Ga^III(H){N(Ar)C=NAr}] 1. The crystal structure of this and two other related anionic compounds, [K(18-crown-6)][(Ar-DAB)Ga^III{N(H)N=Fl}{(H)Fl}] (Fl = fluorendiyl) 2 and [K(OEt₂)₃][(Ar-DAB)Ga^II(CH₂Ph)Ga^II(Ar-DAB)] 3, have been determined.

The crystal structures of all complexes exhibit distorted tetrahedral gallium centers, and interactions between anion aryl substituents and the potassium cations.     

Histamine Molecule and Dianion Oxalate are Efficient Blocks for Building 2D Supramolecular Networks

Abstract  

One salt and two Cu(II) complexes (H₂hsm)(ox), 1, [Cu(hsm)(ox)], 2, and [Cu(hsm)(ox)H₂O], 3, have been synthesized and X-ray characterized (hsm is histamine and ox²⁻ is the oxalate dianion). Starting from the prochiral tetracoordinated complex 2, pentacoordinated complex 3 crystallizes as a racemic mixture of the enantiomeric Δ and Λ isomers, in space group P2₁/c. In all cases, the side chain of the hsm group is gauche, allowing the formation of strong hydrogen bonds in the salt 1, and to chelate the metal center in complexes 2 and 3. The combination hsm/ox seems to favor the formation of 2D supramolecular structures (planes or wavy planes), through efficient networks of N–H···O hydrogen bonds. Cell parameters: 1, P2₁/c, a = 6.260 (2) ?, b = 11.500 (4) ?, c = 12.525 (4) ?, β = 104.047 (17)o; 2, C2/c, a = 10.7966 (13) ?, b = 15.5622 (16) ?, c = 11.3996 (15) ?, β = 106.261 (11)o; 3, P2₁/c, a = 7.0627 (6) ?, b = 7.1323 (6) ?, c = 20.0296 (19) ?, β = 91.529 (7)o.     

Structural Investigations of Novel Indoloacridines

Abstract  5,6-Dihydro-9-chloro-7-phenylindolo[3,2-c]acridinium sulfates (3a-c) were formed from 2,3,4,9-tetrahydro-1H-carbazol-1-ones (1a-c) on reaction with 2-amino-5-chlorobenzophenone. 3b and 3c are isostructural and all three sulfates crystallize in the triclinic system with the space group P each with two crystallographically independent organic cations and one sulfate anion in the asymmetric unit. 3a exhibits the parameters a = 9.8896(17), b = 14.165(2) and c = 14.583(2) ?, α = 83.184(3)°, β = 78.985(3)° and γ = 75.903(3)°; 3b a = 10.5713(9), b = 14.5667(12) and c = 14.9947(13) ?, α = 90.916(1)°, β = 97.153(1)° and γ = 97.208(1)°; and 3c a = 10.5505(10), b = 14.6090(13) and c = 15.2960(14) ?, and α = 91.4310(10)°, β = 98.8630(10)° and γ = 98.9100(10)°. The structure of 3c exhibits voids of 286 ?³ of ill defined and disordered solvate molecules. The structure of 3a is both non-merohedrally twinned and also exhibits an interesting type of pseudosymmetry. All but the sulfate ion and the ethylene moieties also fit with a unit cell half the size with only one independent cation, and disordered ethylene moieties and sulfate anions. The choice of unit cell was made based on the diffraction pattern and the absence of disorder in the larger cell, pointing towards alternating ordered ethylene and sulfate units rather than randomly disordered ones. Index Abstract  [The structures of three indoloacridines 3a, 3b, and 3c with similar packing motifs are described. The structure of 3a is both non-merohedrally twinned and also exhibits an interesting type of pseudosymmetry by being a double volume ordered supercell of an alternative cell with disordered ethylene and sulfate anion moieties.]      

Absence of Platinophilic Interactions in a Series of Tetracyanoplatinates Incorporating Cyclic Amines

Abstract  

Three novel compounds have been synthesized and structurally characterized: [1,10-Hphen]₂Pt(CN)₄·2H₂O (1a) space group P2₁/n, a = 8.73070(17) ?, b = 15.4609(2) ?, c = 9.82661(19) ?, β = 103.252(2)°; [2,2′-Hbipy]₂Pt(CN)₄·2H₂O (1b) space group P2₁/n, a = 7.0859(14) ?, b = 12.940(2) ?, c = 13.7486(19) ?, β = 100.708(16)°; K₂[Pt(CN)₄]·2phen (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) (2) space group P2₁/c, a = 8.1393(4) ?, b = 20.4050(9) ?, c = 8.4085(4) ?, β = 105.284°. All three structures contain isolated [Pt(CN)₄]²⁻ ions and they all illustrate the absence of Pt⋯Pt interactions due to the presence of bulky cyclic amines or ammoniums. The structures of 1a and 1b contain large organic cations, 2,2′-bipyridinium and 1,10-phenanthrolinium, respectively while compound 2 contains neutral 1,10-phenanthroline molecules co-crystallized between the potassium tetracyanoplatinate framework.     

Refinement of the structure of cyclohexylammonium chloride (cyclohexylamine·HCl)

The crystal structure of cyclohexylammonium chloride has been refined to a conventionalR value of 0.029 using X-ray data obtained with molybdenum radiation. The title compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pca2₁ witha=9.339(2),b=11.449(2),c=7.546(1) Å, andD _c=1.117 g cm^–3 forZ=4. An earlier structure determination has been essentially verified with the exception of some important features: a significantly longer and more reasonable C(1)–N bond distance, increased values for all the endocyclic torsion angles and an increase in the length of thea axis.     

Complexes formed by the reactions of fluorinated and non-fluorinated organonitriles with [Zn(SO2)2][AsF6]2: A structural study

[Zn(SO₂)₂][AsF₆]₂ (1) has been prepared from zinc metal and AsF₅ in liquid sulfur dioxide, and crystallized from sulfur dioxide giving crystals of [Zn(SO₂)₄(AsF₆)₂] (1a). The compound 1 forms the homoleptic complexes [Zn(NCR)₆](AsF₆)₂ (R: CH₃ (2a), C₆H₅ (3a), C₆F₅ (3b)) with the corresponding nitriles. In these complexes, the metal center is octahedrally surrounded by six ligands (average Zn–N 2.13 ?). Reaction of 1 with the weaker ligand F₃CCN results in dicoordination at the metal center complemented by a two-dimensional polymeric network (2b) containing bridging AsF₆ ⁻ anions. [Zn(SO₂)₄(AsF₆)₂] (1a): monoclinic, P2₁/c, a=8.5176(8) ?, b=13.5787(14) ?, c=14.7661(15) ?, β=99.296(2)°; [Zn(NCCH₃)₆][AsF₆]₂ (2a): rhombohedral, R-3, a=11.2225(8) ?, b=11.2225(8) ?, c=16.9393(14) ?; [Zn (NCCF₃)₂][μ-FAsF₅)₂( (2b): monoclinic, P2₁/c, a=11.226(3) ?, b=6.6147(19) ?, c=10.460(3) ?, β=104.028(5)°; [Zn(NCC₆H₅)₆][AsF₆]₂ (3a): monoclinic, P2₁/n, a=13.7968(10) ?, b=19.8861(15) ?, c=16.1692(12) ?, β=91.563(2)°; [Zn(NCC₆F₅)₆][AsF₆]₂·2SO₂ (3b): monoclinic, P2₁/n, a=10.8448(9) ?, b=154456(13) ?, c=17.5206(15) ?, β=104.158(1)°.     

X-ray diffraction, DFT, and spectroscopic study of N , N ′-difluoroboryl-5-(2-thienyl)dipyrrin and fluorescence studies of related dipyrromethanes, dipyrrins and BF2-dipyrrins and DFT conformational study of 5-(2-thienyl)dipyrrin

To explore the characteristics of potential fluorescent probes that could be used to screen prospective HDS catalysts, new 5-thienyl dipyrromethene derivatives have been prepared. 5-(2-thienyl)- (1a), 5-(3-thienyl)- (1b), and 5-(3-(2,5-dibromothienyl))-dipyrromethane (1c), were oxidized with DDQ (2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone) separately to give the corresponding dipyrrins 2a–2c. These were subsequently treated with F₃B·OEt₂ to afford the respective N,N′-difluoroboryl-5-(thienyl)dipyrrin compounds, 3a–3c; the latter two may serve as polymer precursors. Significant fluorescence signal enhancement is achieved with 3a–3c over 2a–2c. Orange fluorescence is observed for 3a whereas its isomer 3b gives green fluorescence (365 nm). An X-ray diffraction study of 3a was performed (orthorhombic, P2₁2₁2₁, a=10.684(10) ?, b=15.208(13) ?, c=7.256(6) ?, V=1179.0(17) ?³, Z=4, R ₁=0.0428, wR ₂=0.0686) and its geometry was studied by way of DFT (Gaussian 03; B3LYP/6-31G^*) to give a HOMO/LUMO energy level difference of 414 nm, and a 2-thienyl group rotational barrier of ∼6 kcal/mol, compared to that of ∼12 kcal/mol for the phenyl derivative. Theoretical modeling of 2a demonstrated that the [N–H⋯N] interaction is favored by ca. 10 kcal/mol, whereas [N–H⋯S] bonding is sterically unattainable.

Abstract  

Dipyridylamine has been coupled with phenyl groups to yield new organic ligands. During the course of one reaction a lithium salt of dipyridylamine was isolated as the product. These new compounds were characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction, which reveals that π–π stacking interactions as well as hydrogen bonding permeate the isolated compounds in the solid state. BrPhDPA, compound 1, crystallizes in the monoclinic P2₁ space group with cell parameters a = 5.8291(1), b = 8.8504(2), c = 13.2341(3) ? and β = 91.928(1)°. 3-ThPh(DPA)₂, compound 4, crystallizes in the orthorhombic C2/c space group with cell parameters a = 14.8033(7), b = 11.4124(4), c = 16.11780(7) ? and β = 115.911(3)°. Finally the lithium salt, [Li(HDPA)(H₂O)₂](H₂DPA)(Cl)₂(H₂O), compound 5, crystallizes in the monoclinic Cmcm space group with cell parameters a = 14.043(3), b = 12.370(3) and c = 13.389(3) ?.

The structures are composed of alternating layers of octahedral metal–aqua complexes and sulfonate anions linked by hydrogen bonds. The three water molecules of crystallization are associated with the hexaaquametal cations and sulfonate O atoms. The repeat unit along the a-axis is a single layer. The Ni salt [crystal data for tetraaquabis(5-aminonaphthalene-2-sulfonato-N)nickel(II) dihydrate, [Ni(H₂O)₄(H₂NC₁₀H₆SO₃)₂]·2H₂O: triclinic, , Z=1, a=6.8524(10) ?, b=8.3094(12) ?, c=11.4832(17) ?, α=69.003(2)°, β=76.570(3)°, γ=83.952(2)°, V=593.56(15) ?³] has a very different structure with direct coordination of the amine N atom to Ni, a modified stacking pattern, and fewer free water molecules. Ag and Ni salts of an amine-substituted naphthalenedisulfonate have also been characterized.

The silver salt contains six coordinate metal centers each of which bonds to four sulfonate O atoms from three different anions and two water molecules. The nickel salt contains octahedral cations with four water molecules and two trans sulfonate O atoms. Both structures are layered, but differently from each other and from those of the monofunctional naphthalenesulfonate salts.Unusual coordination of a sulfonate group to a transition metal and coordination of an amine group to nickel but not to cobalt or manganese have been observed in a series of metal aminonaphthalenesulfonate salts

The phenyl rings in 2,3-diphenylquinoxaline form torsion angles of 36.88(5)° and 53.32(4)° with the plane defined by the quinoxaline moiety. Yellow plates of 2,3-diphenylbenzo[g]quinoxaline crystallize in the monoclinic space group C2/c with Z = 8 and a = 25.0621(16) Å, b = 7.7190(5) Å, c = 21.2225(14) Å, and β = 123.674(2)°. The phenyl rings in 2,3-diphenylbenzo[g]quinoxaline form torsion angles of 46.89(3)° and 43.42(3)° with the plane defined by the benzo[g]quinoxaline moiety. Packing in 2,3-diphenylquinoxaline can best be described as following the herringbone motif; whereas the packing in 2,3-diphenylbenzo[g]quinoxaline crystals can also be described as herringbone—albeit a herringbone pattern made up of head-to-tail oriented neighbors.

Intramolecular Carbonyl–Carbonyl Interaction as the Directing Motif of the Opposed Conformational Preferences Among [4?+?2] Cycloadducts of 3-Ethoxycarbonyl- and 3-Acetyl-Coumarins with 2,3-Dimethyl-1,3-Butadiene

Abstract  

In this work, the molecular structures of the Diels–Alder adducts: ethyl (6aR/S,10aR/S)-6a,7,10,10a-tetrahydro-8,9-dimethyl-6-oxodibenzo[b,d]pyran-6a-carboxylate C₁₈H₂₀O₄ 1 and (6aR/S,10aR/S)-6a-acetyl-6a,7,10,10a-tetrahydro-8,9-dimethyl-6-oxodibenzo[b,d]pyran C₁₇H₁₈O₃ 2; and the epoxide of this last (6aR/S,7aR/S,8aS/R,9aR/S)-6a-acetyl-6a,7,7a,8a,9,9a-hexahydro-7a,8a-dimethyl-6-oxo-6H-5,8-dioxacyclopropa[b]phenanthrene C₁₇H₁₈O₄ 3, are comparatively analyzed. Compound 1 is triclinic, space group P-1 with a = 7.7529(6) ?, b = 9.8625(8) ?, c = 11.3103(9) ?, α = 109.387(9)°, β = 95.484(1)°, γ = 99.753(1)°, Z = 2. Compound 2 is monoclinic, space group Cc, a = 7.7285(7) ?, b = 16.6813(15) ?, c = 11.3213(10) ?, β = 92.470(2)°, Z = 4. Compound 3 is monoclinic, space group P2 ₁ /c a = 11.2036(10), b = 15.8326(14), c = 8.3182(7), β = 90.600(2)°, Z = 4. The molecular structures of compounds 1–3 show conformational differences between lactone and 6a-acyl carbonyls. CO···CO dipolar interactions stabilize the less favoured syn conformation in 2–3, conclusions are supported on theoretical calculations. The molecular structure of compound 3 demonstrates that epoxidation of 2 leads to the stereo-selective addition of the oxygen atom.     

Hydrogen bonding in proton-transfer compounds of 5-sulfosalicylic acid with ortho-substituted monocyclic heteroaromatic Lewis bases

The crystal structures of the 1:1 proton-transfer compounds of 5-sulfosalicylic acid with the ortho-substituted monocyclic heteroaromatic Lewis bases, 2-aminopyridine, 2-hydroxypyridine and 2-aminopyrimidine, viz. 2-aminopyridinium 5-sulfosalicylate (1), 2-hydroxypyridinium 5-sulfosalicylate monohydrate (2) and 2-aminopyrimidinium 5-sulfosalicylate monohydrate (3) have been determined and their hydrogen-bonding patterns described. All compounds are monoclinic, space group P2₁/c, with Z=4 in cells with dimensions a=7.898(5), b=11.159(11), c=14.912(7) ?, β=96.849(11)° (1);=7.260(2), b=15.292(3), c=12.615(2) ?, β=102.45(5)° (2) and a=7.0430(7), b=12.1871(16), c=16.2825(12) ?, β=101.364(7)° (3). All three compounds show some molecular disorder, in 1 within the cation species and with both 2 and 3, a similar rotational disorder in the anion sulfonate group. Hydrogen bonding in all three compounds together with significant cation-anion or cation-cation inter-ring π–π interactions generate three-dimensional layered polymer structures.
