(Azido‐κN)bis­(di‐2‐pyridylamine)­copper(II) hexa­fluoro­phosphate and (azido‐κN)bis­(di‐2‐pyridylamine)­copper(II) chloride tetra­hydrate

The two new title complexes, [Cu(N₃)(dpyam)₂]PF₆ (dpyam is di‐2‐pyridylamine, C₁₀H₁₁N₃), (I), and [Cu(N₃)(dpyam)₂]Cl·4H₂O, (II), respectively, have been characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. Both complexes display a distorted square‐pyramidal geometry. Each Cu atom is coordinated in the basal plane by three dpyam N atoms and one azide N atom in equatorial positions, and by another N atom from the dpyam group in the apical position. In complex (I), the one‐dimensional supra­molecular architecture is assembled via hydrogen‐bonding inter­actions between the amine N atom and terminal azide N atoms and the F atoms of the PF₆⁻ anion. For complex (II), hydrogen‐bonding inter­actions between the amine N atom, the Cl⁻ anion and water O atoms result in a two‐dimensional lattice.     

{N‐[2‐(η5‐Cyclopentadienyl)ethyl]‐4‐toluenesulfonamido‐N,O}(tetrahydrofuran‐O)bis(trifluoromethanesulfonato‐O)titanium(II)

The title compound, [Ti(CF₃O₃S)₂(C₁₄H₁₅NO₂S)(C₄H₈O)], contains a unique ligand system in which the Ti ion is bound to the N and O atoms of a 2‐p‐toluene­sulfon­amide ligand, which is linked by an ethyl group to a coordinated cyclo­penta­diene moiety. The distorted octahedral geometry about the Ti ion is completed by two tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate ligands and a tetra­hydro­furan mol­ecule. Comparison with related compounds shows that both the Ti—N and Ti—O bonds of the sulfon­amide, although longer than normal values, indicate significant bonding interactions.

Inter­molecular hydrogen‐bond inter­actions between the uncoordinated N atoms of the tetra­zolate anions and the H atoms of the water mol­ecules lead to the formation of a three‐dimensional network.

The carboxyl O atom not bonded to the Ag atom takes part in an intrachain C—H⋯O hydrogen bond, further stabilizing the chain. Pairs of chains are linked by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to generate ribbons. There are no π–π interactions in this complex. In catena‐poly­[[(di‐2‐pyridyl­amine‐κ²N,N′)silver(I)]‐μ‐2,6‐di­hydroxy­benzoato‐κ²O¹:O²], [Ag(C₇H₅O₄)(C₁₀H₉N₃)]_n, the Ag^I atom has a distorted tetrahedral coordination, with three strong bonds to two pyridine N atoms from the BPA ligand [Ag—N = 2.286 (5) and 2.320 (5) Å] and to one carboxyl­ate O atom from the 2,6‐di­hydroxy­benzoate ligand [Ag—O = 2.222 (4) Å]; the fourth, weaker, Ag‐atom coordination is to one of the phenol O atoms [Ag⋯O = 2.703 (4) Å] of an adjacent moiety, and this interaction generates a polymeric chain along [100]. Pairs of chains are linked about inversion centers by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to form ribbons, within which there are π–π interactions.

Adjacent mol­ecular dimers are connected by π–π stacking inter­actions between pyridine rings to form a zigzag mol­ecular chain. The mol­ecular chains are also enforced by N—H⋯Cl and C—H⋯Cl inter­actions.

Bis(acesulfamato‐κ2N3,O4)bis­(2‐amino­pyrimidine‐κN1)copper(II)

In the crystal structure of the title compound, bis­(2‐amino­pyrimidine‐κN¹)bis­[6‐meth­yl‐1,2,3‐oxathia­zin‐4(3H)‐one 2,2‐dioxide(1−)‐κ²N³,O⁴]copper(II), [Cu(C₄H₄NO₄S)₂(C₄H₅N₃)₂], the first mixed‐ligand complex of acesulfame, the Cu^II centre resides on a centre of symmetry and has an octa­hedral geometry that is distorted both by the presence of four‐membered chelate rings and by the Jahn–Teller effect.

In the title dinuclear acetate‐bridged complex, [Cu₂(C₂H₃O₂)₃(NCS)(C₁₀H₉N₃)₂], the two Cu atoms are five‐coordinated, with a basal plane consisting of two N atoms of a di‐2‐pyridylamine (dpyam) ligand and two O atoms of two different acetate ligands. The axial positions of these Cu atoms are coordinated to N and O atoms from thio­cyanate and acetate mol­ecules, respectively, leading to a distorted square‐pyramidal geometry with τ values of 0.30 and 0.22. Both Cu^II ions are linked by an acetate group in the equatorial–equatorial positions and have syn–anti bridging configurations. Hydrogen‐bond inter­actions between the amine H atom and the coordinated and uncoordinated O atoms of the acetate anions generate an infinite one‐dimensional chain.

Each di­thio­dibenzoate ion links two Ni^II cations through its carboxyl­ate O atoms, making the structure polymeric. Hydro­gen‐bond interactions between two shoulder‐to‐shoulder chains lead to the formation of a ladder‐like structure.
