The crystal and molecular structures oftrans-[PtCl₂(C₂H₄)(4-MeC₅H₄N)] (I) andtrans-[PtCl₂(C₂H₄)(2,4,6-Me₃C₅H₂N)] (II) have been determined by single-crystal x-ray methods.I crystallizes in space groupP2₁/c witha= 4.991(1), b=21.658(3), c=10.675(3) Å, =110.17(2) °,Z=4;II is orthorhombic (Pbca) witha=10.295(6),b=12.393(8),c=20.370(10) Å,Z=8.Full-matrix least-squares refinements have given finalR factors of 0.053 (1520 reflections) forI and 0.042. (1412 reflections) forII. The intensities were recorded by counter methods, and only those reflections havingI>3(I) were used in the analyses.In both complexes, platinum is four-coordinate with the two chlorine atoms, the double bond of the ethylene, and the nitrogen atom of the substituted pyridine. The two structures are discussed in terms of the arrangement of the pyridine ligand with respect to the PtCl₂(C₂H₄) moiety.     

Crystal and molecular structures of trans-bis(acetonitrile)bis(bipyridine)ruthenium(II) perchlorate and trans-diamminebis(bipyridine)ruthenium(II) perchlorate

The structures of trans-[(MeCN)₂(bpy)₂Ru](ClO₄)₂(I) andtrans-[(NH₃)₂(bpy)₂Ru](ClO₄)₂(II) have been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. (I) forms monoclinic crystals in the space groupP2₁/c witha=8.399(2),b=10.406(2),c=15.590(3) Å,=93.78(2)° andZ=2 atT=293 K. The final refinement gaveR=0.040 for 2448 reflections withF _o ² >3(F _o ² ). (II) crystallizes in the triclinic space groupP¯1 witha=1.702(1),b=8.439(2),c=10.525(2) Å,=107.56(2),=104.63(1), =100.89(2)° andZ=1 atT=293 K. Refinement using 1878 reflections withF _o ² >3(F _o ² ) produced a finalR value of 0.036. Both of these structures have the ruthenium atom located on a crystallographic inversion center. The bipyridine ligands in both structures are in the bowed conformation as a means of circumventing the steric problems associated with the trans arrangement of the bipyridine ligands. The Ru-N(monodentate) distance is longer for the ammonia complex (2.106(3) Å) than for the acetonitrile complex (2.008(4) Å); there are no significant differences in the distances and angles of the two Ru(bpy)₂ frameworks.

X-ray structures of tris(0-cyclohexyl-dithiocarbonato)bismuth(III) and tris(0-benzyl-dithiocarbonato)bismuth(III)

The crystal structures of two Bi tris xanthates are reported, namely [Bi(S₂CO-c-C₆H₁₁)₃ J and [Bi(S₂COCH₂C₆H₅)₃]. They exist as centrosymmetric dimers, owing to the presence of bridging xanthate ligands, with seven-coordinate Bi atoms. The presence of a stereochemically active lonepair of electrons in each structure distorts the coordination geometry defined by seven S atoms and causes the elongation of some of the Bi-S bond distances. Crystals of both compounds are triclinic, space groupP¯1 with unit cell dimensions for [Bi(S₂CO-c-C₆H₁₁)₃]:a=12.417(3),b=13.571(3),c=9.681(4) Å;=102.30(2),=109.21(2), =66.23(2)° andZ=2; and for [Bi(S₂COCH₂C₆H₅)₃]:a=14.747(2),b=15.966(2),c=5.991(1) Å;=95.08(1),=98.51(1), =104.92(1)° andZ=2. The structures were refined by a full-matrix least-squares procedure to finalR=0.045 using 4274 reflections for [Bi(S₂CO-c-C₆H₁₁)₃] and toR=0.027 using 3993 reflections for [Bi(S₂COCH₂C₆H₅)₃].

The synthesis and crystal structures of two copper bromide salts of the 4-dimethylaminopyridinium (4DMAP⁺) cation are reported. The Cu(I) salt, (4DMAP)₂CuBr₃, crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c, with a = 11.724(2), b = 11.055(3), c = 15.763(3) Å, = 107.64(3)°, and Z = 4. It contains isolated planar 4DMAP⁺ cations and trigonal planar CuBr₃ ^2– anions. Small distortions from idealized D _3h symmetry are observed for the anion.

This compound contains discrete planar 4DMAP⁺ cations and flattened tetrahedral CuBr₄ ^2– anions. Small distortions are observed for ideal D _2d symmetry.     

Structures of bis(N-n-butylsalicylideneiminato)cobalt(II) and bis(N-tert-butylsalicylideneiminato)cobalt(II) complexes and reactivity towards oxygen and nitric oxide

The cobalt(II)-Schiff base complexes [Co(nbsal)₂] and [Co(tbsal)₂] [nbsal=N-n-butylsalicylideneiminate and tbsal=N-tert-butysalicylideneiminate,o-OC₆H₄CH=NR,R+Buⁿ and Bu^t, respectively] both have distorted tetrahedral structures, but the presence of thetert-butyl groups in [Co(tbsal)₂] causes much greater angular distortion, of the coordination tetrahedron. Although [Co(nbsal)₂] will react with nitric oxide and oxygen, [Co(tbsal)₂] reacts with neither and this appears to be due to the shielding of the cobalt by thetert-vutyl groups. The reactive complex [Co(nbsal)₂] crystallizes in the tetragonal system,a+14.244,c+5.395, Å,Z+2 and space group $P\bar 4$ . The structure was determined by the heavy-atom method, using MoKα diffractometer data, and refined by full matrix least-squares toR+0.035 for 777 reflections. The unreactive complex [Co(tbsal)₂] crystallizes in the orthorhombic systemPbc2₁,a+10.977,b+20.037,c+9.866 Å,Z+4. The structure was determined as above toR+0.051 for 1458 reflections.     

Structure of dichloroethanolaminecopper(II) and dibromoethanolaminecopper(II)

CuCl₂(NH₂CH₂CH₂OH) is monoclinic, space group C2/c, witha+11.092(2),b+10.012(2),c+6.401(1) Å, =121.71(1)°, andV=604.8(2)ų withZ+4. The structure was refined to a final value ofR+0.27 for 518 unique observed reflections with |F|>3. The ethanolamine and halide ions coordinate to the copper(II) ion forming a pseudoplanar four-coordinate monomeric CuCl₂L² complex (L²+bidentate ligand). The copper ion also interacts with the halides of neighboring complexes through the formation of semi-coordinate Cu-Cl linkages (2.926(1) Å) between oligomers. The copper thus attains a 4+2 elongated octahedral coordination geometry. In this space group, the ligand is statisticallydisordered The Cu-Cl distance is 2.267(1)Å while the Cu-N/O distances are 2.025(2)Å. The dibromide structure is isomorphous with the dichloride structure, with space group C2/c, anda+11.285(2),b+10.218(2),c+6.715(1) Å, =121.65(1)°, andV=659.2(2)ų.

Crystal and molecular structure of bis(tropolonato)-dioxo-(ethanol)uranium(vi)

Crystals of bis(tropolonato)-dioxo(ethanol)uranium(VI) are orthorhombic:a = 12·495(8),b = 8·817(7),c = 15·459(9) Å,Z = 4, space groupPnam. The structure was determined with MoK diffractometer data by standard Patterson and Fourier methods, and was refined by full-matrix least-squares methods toR = 0·049 for 1289 observed reflexions.The coordination plane consists of the four tropolonato oxygen atoms and the oxygen from the ethanol ligand; the uranyl group is perpendicular to it. The molecule lies across the mirror plane, consistent with a boat conformation for the tropolone rings; the dihedral angle between the plane of tropolone ring and the coordination plane is 22·5 °. The deviations of the tropolonato oxygen atoms from the tropolonato plane are 0·08 Å (above) and 0·16 Å (below). It is almost certain that the ethyl group of the ethanol ligand does not lie in the symmetry plane; C(8) is about 0·3 Å on one side of this plane and C(9) is about the same distance on the other, within a satisfactory bonding scheme.
