Tris­(ethyl­enedi­amine‐N,N′)cobalt(III) oxalate perchlorate dihydrate

The crystallization behavior of the title compound, [Co(C₂H₈N₂)₃](C₂O₄)(ClO₄)·2H₂O, has been studied in order to evaluate the effect of the counter‐anion on the crystalline structures of [Co(en)₃](C₂O₄)·X (en = ethyl­enedi­amine). Two‐dimensional intermolecular hydrogen‐bonding networks are formed between the amine protons of the [Co(en)₃]³⁺ cations and the O atoms of the oxalate anions. Perchlorate and water mol­ecules fill in the channels between the two‐dimensional networks and form hydrogen‐bonding interactions with the two‐dimensional layers, thus constructing a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonding network.     

trans‐Chloro­bis­(ethyl­enedi­amine‐N,N′)­nitro­cobalt(III) perchlorate

In the title compound, trans‐[CoCl(NO₂)(C₂H₈N₂)₂]ClO₄, there are two independent Co^III complexes with a distorted octahedral coordination, and they show an orientational disorder such that the positions of the nitro and chloro ligands are exchanged. As a result, the averaged structure has inversion centres at the Co atoms. The perchlorate‐O atoms are disordered over two sites.     

trans‐Chloro­bis­(ethyl­enedi­amine‐N,N′)­nitro­cobalt(III) nitrate

In the title compound, trans‐[CoCl(NO₂)(C₂H₈N₂)₂]NO₃, a distorted octahedral Co^III complex shows an orientational disorder such that the positions of the nitro and chloro ligands are exchanged. The occupation factors of the major and minor orientations are 84 and 16%, respectively. The O atoms of the nitrate ion are disordered over two sites.     

Rubidium bis­(tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonyl)­imidate dioxane disolvate

The bis­(tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonyl)­imidate anion crystallizes with Rb as the title dioxane 1:2 solvate, Rb⁺·CF₃SO₂NSO₂CF₃⁻·2C₄H₈O₂, with the anion in a transoid conformation, as opposed to the cisoid form typically seen when there are significant cation–anion interactions. The Rb^I cation is eight‐coordinate, interacting with one anion in a chelating fashion and with two other anions through the remaining sulfonyl O atoms. The latter interactions link ion pairs through the formation of Rb₂O₂ dimers about inversion centers at (0, , 0) and (, , 0), forming extended columns which run parallel to the a axis of the unit cell. Rb–dioxane bridges crosslink these salt columns in the (010), (001) and (011) directions, resulting in a three‐dimensional network solid. One dioxane solvent mol­ecule is disordered over two half‐occupancy sites.     

Potassium bis­(carbonato‐O,O′)(ethylenedi­amine‐N,N′)­cobaltate(III) monohydrate at 173 K

The title salt, K[Co(C₂H₈N₂)(CO₃)₂]·H₂O, consists of a distorted octahedral cobalt complex anion and a seven‐coordinate potassium cation. Both metal atoms have crystallographic twofold symmetry, one C₂ axis passing through the Co atom and C—C bond, and another along a short K—O (water) bond of 2.600 Å (corrected for libration). The carbonate is bidentate to both cobalt and potassium and the water forms a hydrogen bond to a carbonate O atom.     

Bis­[N,N′‐bis­(di­phenyl­methyl­ene)ethyl­enedi­amine‐κ2N,N′]copper(I) di­chloro­cuprate(I)

The 1:1 adduct of N,N′‐bis­(di­phenyl­methyl­ene)­ethyl­enedi­amine (bz₂en) with copper(I) chloride, viz. [Cu(C₂₈H₂₄N₂)₂][CuCl₂], has been synthesized. The structure contains cationic moieties of Cu^I ions (Cu on a twofold axis) coordinated to four N atoms of two bz₂en mol­ecules (in a distorted tetrahedron) and linear di­chloro­cuprate(I) anions (with Cu on an inversion centre). These cations and anions are packed in columns along b. The packing of the cation and anion columns involves a significant C—H⋯Cl interaction and four short intermolecular C—H⋯π contacts, two of which are between cation columns.     

Bis­(pyridine­carboxyl­ato‐O,N)­(pyri­dine­carboxyl­ic acid‐O,N)­manganese(III) hy­drox­ide

The title complex, [Mn(C₅H₄NCO₂)₂(C₅H₄NCOOH)]OH, consists of a cation and a hydro­xide ion. The Mn atom is coordinated by three N atoms and three O atoms from three pyridine­carboxyl­ate ligands, and has a distorted octahedral geometry, with Mn—N distances ranging from 2.157 (1) to 2.233 (1) Å and Mn—O distances from 1.910 (1) to 1.927 (4) Å. One ligand is protonated as the acid form. This forms one of two independent hydrogen bonds, to the anion.     

Bis­(acetone‐κO)­bis(N,N′‐di­methyl­ethyl­enedi­amine‐κ2N,N′)copper(II) diperchlorate

The title compound, [Cu(C₄H₁₂N₂)₂(C₃H₆O)₂](ClO₄)₂, is the first structurally characterized Cu^II complex having acetone as axial ligands. The complex adopts an elongated octahedral trans‐[CuN₄O₂] coordination geometry, with the Cu atom having 222 site symmetry. The axial Cu—O(acetone) and in‐plane Cu—N bond lengths are 2.507 (5) and 2.041 (3) Å, respectively.     

trans‐Bis­[N‐(2‐hydroxy­ethyl)­ethyl­ene­di­amine‐κ2N,N′]­bis­(iso­thio­cyanato‐κN)­nickel(II)

The crystal structure of the title compound, [Ni(NCS)₂(C₄H₁₂N₂O)₂], has two crystallographically independent half‐mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit, with each Ni atom residing on a centre of symmetry. The two mol­ecules exhibit similar coordination geometry but display differences with regard to other structural features. Each Ni^II centre is octahedrally coordinated by two mutually trans chelating hydroxy­ethyl­ethyl­ene­di­amine ligands and two mutually trans iso­thio­cyanate ions. The two independent mol­ecules form chains through different types of non‐covalent interactions. In the case of one of the mol­ecules, only NCS and free OH groups participate in hydrogen bonding, while in the chain based on the second mol­ecule, the NCS, NH, NH₂ and free OH groups are involved in intermolecular hydrogen bonding. The two chains interact with one another through hydrogen bonding, forming planar sheets. The third packing direction is mediated only by van der Waals interactions.     

N,N′‐Bis­[1‐(pyrazin‐2‐yl)­ethyl­idene]­hydrazine

Molecules of the title compound, C₁₂H₁₂N₆, contain both a di­imine linkage and an N—N bond, and assume a planar structure. The compound lies about an inversion centre and there are three intramolecular C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds.     

[N‐(Carboxyl­ato­methyl)­aspartato(3–)](ethyl­enedi­amine)­cobalt(III) trihydrate

The mononuclear title complex, [Co(C₆H₆NO₆)(C₂H₈N₂)]·3H₂O, contains an octahedrally coordinated Co^III atom. The N‐(carboxy­methyl)­aspartate moiety is coordinated as a tetradentate ligand, providing an OONO‐donor set and forming two trans five‐membered chelate rings and one six‐membered chelate ring. A seven‐membered chelate ring is also formed, which consists of part of the six‐membered chelate ring and part of one of the five‐membered chelate rings. The crystal structure of the complex is stabilized by hydrogen bonds with three water mol­ecules.     

Bis­[tris­(ethyl­enedi­amine)­cobalt(III)] di­chloro­bis­[μ‐(1‐hydroxy­ethyl­idene)­di­phospho­nato(4–)]­di­ruthenium(II,­III)­(Ru–Ru) chloride trihydrate

In the title compound, [Co(C₂H₈N₂)₃]₂[Ru₂(C₂H₄O₇P₂)₂Cl₂]Cl·3H₂O, the building unit contains two crystallographically independent dinuclear [Ru₂(hedp)₂Cl₂]⁵⁻ anions, where hedp [viz. (1‐hydroxy­ethyl­idene)­di­phospho­nate] serves as a bis‐chelating bridging ligand, two types of [Co(en)₃]³⁺ cations, one uncoordinated Cl⁻ anion and five water mol­ecules of crystallization. The [Ru₂(hedp)₂Cl₂]⁵⁻ anions are connected to one another, forming one‐dimensional chains along the a axis. The [Co(en)₃]³⁺ cations are located between these chains and lie across inversion centres. An extensive series of hydrogen bonds lead to the formation of a three‐dimensional supramol­ecular network structure, with channels generated along the [100] direction. The uncoordinated water mol­ecules and Cl⁻ anions reside in these channels.     

Bis­(aceto­nitrile‐N)(o‐benzoquinone di­imine‐N,N′)‐trans‐bis­(tri­phenyl­phosphine‐P)­ruthenium(II) bis(hexa­fluoro­phosphate) methanol solvate

The title complex, [Ru(C₂H₃N)₂(C₆H₆N₂)(C₁₈H₁₅P)₂](PF₆)₂.CH₄O, is the third of a series of ruthenium complexes containing two tri­phenyl­phosphine groups in a trans arrangement, o‐benzoquinone di­imine and two other non‐redox active ligands to been characterized. The effect of electron donor–acceptor properties of the two non‐redox active ligands does not change the quinone arrangement for the o‐benzoquinone di­imine ligand, as can be seen from the bond distances of the quinone ring. The asymmetric unit contains half a mol­ecule of complex cation (on a twofold rotation axis), one hexa­fluoro­phosphate anion and half a mol­ecule of methanol in a general position close to a twofold rotation axis.     

N,N,N′,N′‐Tetra­methyl­ethyl­enedi­ammonium dichloride

The structure of the title compound, C₆H₁₈N₂²⁺.2Cl^?, has been determined and has a centre of symmetry. The mol­ecule has strong intermolecular hydrogen bonding between each Cl^? and an N—H bond [Cl?N = 3.012 (3) Å].     

Polymeric aqua­(nitrato‐κ2O,O′)(1,10‐phenanthroline‐κ2N,N′)(2,3‐pyrazine­di­carboxyl­ato‐κ2N,O)­europium(III) monohydrate

In polymeric {[Eu(pzdc)(NO₃)(phen)(H₂O)]·H₂O}_n [pzdc is 2,3‐pyrazine­di­carboxyl­ate (C₆H₂O₄) and phen is 1,10‐phenanthroline (C₁₂H₈N₂)], each europium(III) ion is coordinated by seven O atoms (from three pzdc anions, a nitrate anion and a water mol­ecule) and the two N atoms of the phen ligand, resulting in a nine‐coordinated europium(III) center with a distorted monocapped square‐antiprismatic coordination polyhedron. Four pzdc anions bridge four europium(III) ions, forming a parallelogram unit, the four vertices of which are occupied by the four pzdc anions. Moreover, each parallelogram unit links six other adjacent parallelogram units, forming a two‐dimensional network with disordered lattice water mol­ecules.     

[N′‐Benzoyl‐N,N‐bis(2‐pyridylmethyl‐κN)­ethyl­enedi­amine‐κN]chloro­copper(II) hexa­fluoro­phosphate

The title mononuclear copper(II) complex, [CuCl(C₂₁H₂₂­N₄O)]­PF₆, shows a distorted square‐planar coordination and the benzoyl­amino N atom does not coordinate to the Cu atom.     

trans‐Bis­[2,3‐di­amino‐(R,S)‐propion­ato‐N,N′]­di­aqua­copper(II) dihydrate

The title copper complex, [Cu(dl ‐DAP)₂(H₂O)₂]·2H₂O or [Cu(C₃H₇N₂O₂)₂(H₂O)₂]·2H₂O, prepared from the non‐protein amino acid dl ‐2,3‐di­amino­propionic acid (dl ‐HDAP), has a center of symmetry and a distorted octahedral coordination, with four N atoms in equatorial positions and two water mol­ecules in apical sites. The water mol­ecule of crystallization is hydrogen bonded to the deprotonated carboxyl­ate group of the ligand.     

Ammonium di­chloro­bis­(di­methyl­glyoximato‐N,N′)­iridate(III)

In the title compound, (NH₄)[IrCl₂(C₄H₇N₂O₂)₂], (I), the Ir atom is octahedrally coordinated by two trans Cl^? and two di­methyl­glyoximate chelate ligands in the equatorial plane. A two‐dimensional hydrogen‐bond network between ammonium cations NH₄⁺ and anionic [IrCl₂(C₄H₇N₂O₂)₂]^? complexes is extended along the bc plane.     

catena‐Poly­[[[μ‐pyrazine‐κ2N:N′‐disilver(I)]‐di‐μ‐pyrazine‐κ4N:N′] bis­(tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate) dihydrate]

The title compound, {[Ag₂(C₄H₄N₂)₃](CF₃SO₃)₂·2H₂O}_n, is a polymeric pyrazine–silver(I) complex. Each Ag^I ion is three‐coordinated by N atoms of three different pyrazine ligands, forming a T‐shaped coordination configuration. In the crystal structure, uncoordinated water mol­ecules are linked to tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate anions through intermolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. There are weaker Ag⋯O interactions involving the water and sulfonate O atoms.     

Bis[bis­(methoxy­carbimido)amine‐κ2N,N′]bis­(perchlorato‐κO)copper(II) bis­[bis­(methoxy­carbimido)amine‐κ2N,N′]bis­(methanol‐κO)copper(II) bis­(perchlorate) methanol disolvate

The title compound, [Cu(ClO₄)₂(C₄H₉N₃O₂)₂][Cu(C₄H₉N₃O₂)₂(CH₄O)₂](ClO₄)₂·2CH₃OH, comprises two independent Cu^II species lying on different inversion sites. In the Cu complexes, a distorted octa­hedral geometry arises (from basic square‐planar N₄ coordination) from the weak coordination of two perchlorate ions (as Cu—O) in one species and two methanol mol­ecules in the other (also as Cu—O). Inter­actions between the O atoms of the perchlorate anions or methanol groups and the imide or amine NH groups afford an extensive inter­molecular hydrogen‐bonding network.
