[5‐Benzyl‐3‐phenyl‐2‐(2‐pyridyl‐κN)thiazolidin‐4‐one‐κS]dichloropalladium(II)

The palladium(II) centre in the title compound, [PdCl₂(C₂₁H₁₈N₂OS)], is coordinated to the pyridyl N atom and to the thia­zolidinone S atom of the 5‐benzyl‐3‐phenyl‐2‐(2‐pyridyl)­thia­zolidin‐4‐one ligand, resulting in a five‐membered chelate ring. Two cis‐chloro ligands complete the square‐planar coordination environment of the metal. Although the geometry at the Pd centre is essentially planar, the N—Pd—S bite angle of 85.20 (8)° causes deviations in the cis angles from the ideal value of 90°. Opposite enantiomers form one‐dimensional chains in the cell via a short S?O intermolecular interaction.     

[Bis(2‐diphenylphosphinoethyl) sulfide‐κ3P,S,P′](triphenylphosphine‐κP)platinum(II) diperchlorate acetone solvate

In the title compound, [Pt(C₁₈H₁₅P)(C₂₈H₂₈P₂S)]­(ClO₄)₂·­C₃H₆O or [Pt(PPh₃)(PSP)](ClO₄)₂·CH₃COCH₃, where PSP is the potentially tridentate chelate ligand bis(2‐di­phenyl­phosphinoethyl) sulfide, all three donor groups of the PSP ligand are coordinated to the central Pt atom, with Pt—P = 2.310 (1) Å and Pt—S = 2.343 (1) Å.

A π–π interaction is present between the phenyl rings of the PPh₃ ligand and the terminal –PPh₂ group of the PSP chelate.     

trans‐Bis[3‐(2‐fluorophenyl)‐1‐(4‐nitrophenyl)triazenido‐κN3]bis(pyridine‐κN)palladium(II)

The coordination geometry about the Pd²⁺ ion is square planar, with two deprotonated 3‐(2‐fluoro­phenyl)‐1‐(4‐nitro­phenyl)­triazenide ions, FC₆H₄N=N—NC₆H₄NO₂^?, acting as monodentate ligands (two‐electron donors), while two neutral pyridine mol­ecules complete the metal coordination sphere. The whole triazenide ligand is not planar, with the largest interplanar angle being 16.8 (5)° between the phenyl ring of the 2‐­fluorophenyl group and the plane defined by the N=N—N moiety. The Pd—N(triazenide) and Pd—N(pyridine) distances are 2.021 (3) and 2.039 (3) Å, respectively.

The Pd atom has a square‐planar environment, coordinated to two S atoms of the di­thia­dioxa macrocycle and to two Cl^? ions. The non‐coordinating O atoms are oriented away from the metal coordination plane. Upon complexation, a bicyclic chelate structure, which consists of a seven‐ and an eleven‐membered ring, is formed.     

[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.

The title compound, [VO(SO₄)(C₆H₆N₄S₂)(H₂O)₂]·4H₂O, displays a distorted octahedral coordination geometry. The 2,2′‐di­amino‐4,4′‐bi­thia­zole ligand is present in the usual chelating bidentate mode. The sulfate ligand coordinates in a monodentate fashion to the V atom. A large displacement of the V atom from the equatorial plane towards the oxo group correlates with the strong V=O double bond. In the crystal structure, a three‐dimensional supramolecular network is formed by hydrogen bonds.     

N‐{4‐Bromo‐2‐[(3‐bromo‐1‐phenylsulfonyl‐1H‐indol‐2‐yl)methyl]‐5‐methoxyphenyl}acetamide

In the title compound, C₂₄H₂₀Br₂N₂O₄S, the indole ring system is planar and the S atom has a distorted tetrahedral configuration. The sulfonyl‐bound phenyl ring is orthogonal to the indole ring system and the conformation of the phenyl­sulfonyl substituent with respect to the indole moiety is influenced by intramolecular C—H⃛O hydrogen bonds involving the two sulfonyl O atoms. The mean plane through the acetyl­amido group makes a dihedral angle of 57.0 (1)° with the phenyl ring of the benzyl moiety. In the crystal, glide‐related mol­ecules are linked together by N—H⃛O hydrogen bonds and C—H⃛π interactions to form molecular chains, which extend through the crystal. Inversion‐related chains are interlinked by C—H⃛π interactions to form molecular layers parallel to the bc plane. These layers are interconnected through π–π interactions involving the five‐ and six‐membered rings of the indole moiety.     

(3,8,9,14‐Tetraethyl‐2,4,13,15‐tetramethyltripyrrinato)(trifluoroacetato)­palladium(II)

This distortion of the organic ligand is considered as the conformational answer to the steric inter­action of the terminal methyl groups of the tripyrrinate ligand with the donor O atom of the trifluoro­acetate group.     

Bis(5‐hydroxy‐2‐hydroxy­methyl‐4‐pyrone‐κ2O4,O5)bis(2‐hydroxy­methyl‐5‐oxido‐4‐pyrone‐κ2O4,O5)­calcium(II) tetrahydrate

The Ni—N_triazenide, Ni—O and Ni—N_py distances are 2.0794 (16), 2.0427 (13) and 2.1652 (18) Å, respectively.

The ligand mol­ecules show great asymmetry in their bonding to the Zn²⁺ ion, with Zn—O bond distances ranging between 2.056 (2) and 2.534 (2) Å. The planar phenyl ring and the trigonal–planar geometry about the triazene N atom bonded to the phenyl ring suggest a resonance interaction extending over adjacent atoms.

In the title complex, [Au(C₁₂H₈N₅O₄)(C₁₈H₁₅P)], the coordination geometry about the Au^I ion is linear, with one deprotonated 1,3‐bis(4‐nitro­phenyl)­triazenide ion, [O₂NC₆H₄N=N–NC₆H₄NO₂]⁻, acting as a monodentate ligand (two‐electron donor), and one neutral tri­phenyl­phosphine mol­ecule completing the metal coordination. The triazenide ligand is almost planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0767 Å), with the largest interplanar angle being 11.6 (7)° between the phenyl ring of one of the terminal 4‐nitro­phenyl substituents and the plane defined by the N=N—N triad. The Au—N and Au—P distances are 2.108 (5) and 2.2524 (13) Å, respectively. Pairs of mol­ecules generated by centrosymmetry are associated into a supramolecular array via intermolecular C—H⋯O inter­actions, and N⋯C and N⋯O π–π interactions.

The 2‐­phenyl substituent is nearly perpendicular to the pyrazo­linone ring, with a dihedral angle of 87.66 (1)°. The aceto­phenone oxime moieties are twisted out of the pyrazolinone‐ring plane by 47.04 (1)°. The mol­ecules in the crystal pack in an antiparallel fashion and are held together by hydrogen‐bonded water mol­ecules and intermolecular O—H⋯O and O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds.     

(2,2′‐Bipyridyl‐κ2N,N′)­bis­(salicyl­ato‐κ2O,O′)­zinc(II)

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Zn(C₇H₅O₃)₂(C₁₀H₈N₂)], contains one monomeric zinc complex. The Zn atom is coordinated to one 2,2′‐bipyridyl ligand via both N atoms and to two salicyl­ate anions (Hsal⁻) in a bidentate chelating manner involving carboxyl­ate O‐atom coordination. The complex exhibits a distorted octahedral geometry about the Zn^II atom, with the `apical' positions occupied by one of the two N atoms of the bipyridyl ligand and an O atom from one Hsal<sup>−</sup> ligand; the Zn atom is 0.168 (1) Å out of the `basal' plane. Two intramolecular six‐membered hydrogen‐bonded rings are present, generated from interactions between the carboxyl and hydroxyl groups of the salicyl­ate ligands. The crystal packing is governed by weak C—H⋯O and C—H⋯π interactions.     

(Z)‐7‐Chloro‐3‐[(3‐chloro­phenyl)­methyl­idene]‐4‐p‐tosyl‐3,4‐di­hydro‐2H‐1,4‐benzoxazine

In the title compound, C₂₂H₁₇Cl₂NO₃S, the mol­ecule is a substituted 3,4‐di­hydro‐2H‐1,4‐benzoxazine compound which has three phenyl rings which are essentially planar. The 3,4‐di­hydro‐2H‐oxazine part of the mol­ecule is fused to the benzo ring and has a half‐boat conformation; the dihedral angle between the planar part of the oxazine ring and the benzo ring is 10.2 (2)°. The (3‐chloro­phenyl)­methyl­idene substituent has a Z configuration in relation to the ring N atom of the oxazine moiety. Interestingly, the p‐toluenesulfonyl (p‐tosyl) substituent on the ring N atom protrudes away from the 3‐­chloro­phenyl substituent thus avoiding any steric interaction.
