Crystal structure of Ti4Ni2C

Single crystals of the inter­metallic phase with composition Ti4Ni2C were serendipitously obtained by high-pressure sinter­ing of a mixture with initial chemical composition Ti2Ni. The Ti4Ni2C phase crystallizes in the Fdoverline{3}m space group and can be considered as a partially filled Ti2Ni structure with the C atom occupying an octa­hedral void. Ti4Ni2C is isotypic with Ti4Ni2O, Nb4Ni2C and Ta4Ni2C, all of which were studied previously by means of powder diffraction.

A new square-planar palladium complex salt hydrate, (C9H12NO)2[PdCl4]·0.5H2O, has been characterized. The asymmetric unit of the complex salt comprises two [PdCl4]2− dianions, four 2-hy­droxy-2,3-di­hydro-1H-inden-1-aminium cations, each derived from (1R,2S)-(+)-1-amino­indan-2-ol, and one water mol­ecule of crystallization. In the crystal, a two-dimensional layer parallel to (001) features a number of O—H⋯O, N—H⋯O, O—H⋯Cl and N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds.

Several nonclassical C—H⋯F hydrogen-bonding inter­actions help to consolidate the packing. Two of the F atoms of one of the anions are disordered over adjacent sites in a 0.814 (4):0.186 (4) ratio.

Bis[2,6-bis­(benzimidazol-2-yl)pyridine-κ3N,N',N'']nickel(II) bis­(tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate) diethyl ether monosolvate

In the title complex, [Ni(C19H13N5)2](CF3SO3)2·(CH3CH2)2O, the central NiII atom is sixfold coordinated by three nitro­gen atoms of each 2,6-bis­(2-benzimidazol­yl)pyridine ligand in a distorted octa­hedral geometry with two tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate ions and a mol­ecule of diethyl ether completing the outer coordination sphere of the complex. Hydrogen bonding contributes to the organization of the asymmetric units in columns along the a axis generating a porous supra­molecular structure. The structure was refined as a two-component twin with a refined BASF value of 0.4104 (13).

(2,2'-Bi­pyridine-κ2N,N')(4,4'-dimeth­oxy-2,2'-bipyridine-κ2N,N')palladium(II) bis­(tri­fluoro­meth­anesulfonate)

In the title complex salt, [Pd(C10H8N2)(C12H12N2O2)](CF3SO3)2, the palladium(II) atom is fourfold coordinated by two chelating ligands, 2,2'-bi­pyridine and 4,4'-dimeth­oxy-2,2'-bi­pyridine, in a distorted square-planar environment.

Bis[μ-bis­(pyridin-2-yl)methanone oxime-κ3N:,N',N'']bis­[di­acetato-κ2O,O';κO-zinc(II)]

The structure of the title complex, [Zn2(C2H3O2)4(C11H9N3O)2], is triclinic containing half of the mol­ecule in the asymmetric unit. Each zinc atom is coordinated to a pyridyl and oxime nitro­gen from one di-2-pyridyl ketone oxime (dpko) ligand and a third nitro­gen from the other dpko pyridyl ring. Additionally, each zinc is coordinated to two acetato anions, one of which is bidentate and the other monodentate. The uncoordinated oxygen of the monodentate acetato group is involved in a hydrogen bond with the oxime hydrogen. The packing in the crystal is assisted by weak C—H⋯O inter­actions between acetato groups and neighboring pyridyl rings.

Bis[S-octyl 3-(2-methyl­propyl­idene)di­thio­carb­az­ato-κ2N3,S]nickel(II)

The central NiII atom in the title complex, [Ni(C13H25N2S2)2], is located on an inversion center and adopts a roughly square-planar coordination environment defined by two chelating N,S donor sets of two symmetry-related ligands in a trans configuration. The Ni—N and Ni—S bond lenghts are 1.9193 (14) and 2.1788 (5) Å, respectively, with a chelating N—Ni—S bond angle of 86.05 (4)°. These data are compared with those measured for similar di­thio­carbazato ligands that bear n-octyl or n-hexyl alkyl chains. Slight differences are observed with respect to the phenyl­ethyl­idene derivative where the ligands are bound cis relative to one another.

4-Fluoro-2-(phenyl­amino)­benzoic acid

The title compound, C13H10FNO2, was obtained by the reaction of 2-bromo-4-fluoro­benzoic acid with aniline. There are two independent mol­ecules, A and B, in the asymmetric unit, with slight conformational differences: the dihedral angles between the aromatic rings are 55.63 (5) and 52.65 (5)°. Both mol­ecules feature an intra­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bond. In the crystal, the mol­ecules are linked by pairwise O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to form A–B acid–acid dimers and weak C—H⋯F inter­actions further connect the dimers.




2

5-Bromo-2-(phenyl­amino)­benzoic acid

The title compound, C13H10BrNO2, was obtained by the reaction of 2,5-di­bromo­benzoic acid and aniline. The mol­ecule is twisted with a dihedral angle between the aromatic rings of 45.74 (11)° and an intr­amolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bond is seen. In the crystal, pairwise O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds generate carb­oxy­lic acid inversion dimers.

Methyl N-{(1R)-2-[(meth­oxy­carbon­yl)­oxy]-1-phenyleth­yl}carbamate

The title mol­ecule, C12H15NO5, is a methyl carbamate derivative obtained by reacting (R)-2-phenyl­glycinol and methyl chloro­formate, with calcium hydroxide as heterogeneous catalyst. Supra­molecular chains are formed in the [100] direction, based on N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the amide and carboxyl­ate groups. These chains weakly inter­act in the crystal, and the phenyl rings do not display significant π–π inter­actions.

{N-[1-(2-Oxidophen­yl)ethyl­idene]-dl-alaninato}(pentane-1,5-di­yl)silicon(IV)

The title SiIV complex, C16H21NO3Si, is built up by a tridentate dinegative Schiff base ligand bound to a sila­cyclo­hexane unit. The coordination geometry of the penta­coordinated SiIV atom is a distorted trigonal bipyramid. The presence of the sila­cyclo­hexane ring in the complex leads to an unusual coordination geometry of the SiIV atom with the N atom from the Schiff base ligand and an alkyl-C atom in apical positions of the trigonal bipyramid. There is a disorder of the methyl group at the imine bond with two orientations resolved for the H atoms [major orientation = 0.55 (3)]. In the crystal, C—H⋯O inter­actions are found within corrugated layers of mol­ecules parallel to the ab plane.

One of the methyl­ene groups is disordered over two sites with occupancies of 0.782 (13):0.218 (13). In the crystal, cyclo­penta­dienyl-C—H⋯O(morpholin­yl) inter­actions feature within helical chains parallel to the c-axis direction.

trans-Di­bromido­tetra­kis­(5-methyl-1H-pyrazole-κN2)manganese(II)

The title compound, trans-di­bromido­tetra­kis­(5-methyl-1H-pyrazole-κN2)manganese(II), [MnBr2(C4H6N2)4] or [Mn(3-MePzH)4Br2] (1) crystallizes in the triclinic Poverline{1} space group with the cell parameters a = 7.6288 (3), b = 8.7530 (4), c = 9.3794 (4) Å and α = 90.707 (4), β = 106.138 (4), γ = 114.285 (5)°, V = 542.62 (5) Å3, T = 120 K. The asymmetric unit contains only half the mol­ecule with the manganese atom is situated on a crystallographic inversion center. The 3-MePzH ligands are present in an AABB type manner with two methyl groups pointing up and the other two down. The supra­molecular architecture is characterized by several inter­molecular C—H⋯N, N—H⋯Br, and C—H⋯π inter­actions. Earlier, a polymorphic structure of [Mn(3-MePzH)4Br2] (2) with a similar geometry and also an AABB arrangement for the pyrazole ligands was described [Reedijk et al. (1971). Inorg. Chem. 10, 2594–2599; a = 8.802 (6), b = 9.695 (5), c = 7.613 (8) Å and α = 105.12 (4), β = 114.98 (4), γ = 92.90 (3)°, V = 558.826 (5) Å3, T = 295 K]. A varying supra­molecular pattern was reported, with the structure of 1 featuring a herringbone type pattern while that of structure 2 shows a pillared network type of arrangement along the a axis. A nickel complex [Ni(3-MePzH)4Br2] isomorphic to 1 and the analogous chloro derivatives of FeII, CoII and CuII are also known.

4-Fluoro­benzyl (Z)-2-(2-oxoindolin-3-yl­idene)hydrazine-1-carbodi­thio­ate

The title compound, C16H12FN3OS, a fluorinated di­thio­carbazate imine derivative, was synthesized by the one-pot, multi-component condensation reaction of hydrazine hydrate, carbon di­sulfide, 4-fluoro­benzyl chloride and isatin. The compound demonstrates near-planarity across much of the mol­ecule in the solid state and a Z configuration for the azomethine C=N bond. The Z form is further stabilized by the presence of an intra­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bond. In the extended structure, mol­ecules are linked into dimers by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and further connected into chains along either [2overline{1}0] or [100] by weak C—H⋯S and C—H⋯F hydrogen bonds, which further link into corrugated sheets and in combination form the overall three-dimensional network.

Poly[(μ-2,3-diethyl-7,8-di­methyl­quinoxaline-κ2N:N)(2,3-diethyl-7,8-di­methyl­quinoxaline-κN)-μ-nitrato-κ2O:O'-nitrato-κ2O,O'-disilver(I)]

The structure of the title compound, [C14H18N2)2Ag2](NO3)2, contains subtle differences in ligand, metal, and counter-anion coordination. One quinoxaline ligand uses one of its quinoxaline N atoms to bond to one silver cation. That silver cation is bound to a second quinoxaline which, in turn, is bound to a second silver atom; thereby using both of its quinoxaline N atoms. A nitrate group bonds with one of its O atoms to the first silver and uses the same oxygen to bond to a silver atom (related by symmetry to the second), thereby forming an extended network. The second nitrate group on the other silver bonds via two nitrate O atoms; one silver cation therefore has a coordination number of three whereas the second has a coordination number of four. One of the quinoxaline ligands has a disordered ethyl group.

Bis[2,6-bis­(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)pyridine]ruthenium(II) bis(hexa­fluorido­phosphate) diethyl ether tris­olvate

The title compound, [Ru(C19H13N5)2](PF6)2·3C4H10O, was obtained from the reaction of Ru(bimpy)Cl3 [bimpy is 2,6-bis­(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)pyridine] and bimpy in refluxing ethanol followed by recrystallization from diethyl ether/aceto­nitrile. At 125 K the complex has ortho­rhom­bic (Pca21) symmetry. It is remarkable that the structure is almost centrosymmetric. However, refinement in space group Pbcn leads to disorder and definitely worse results. It is of inter­est with respect to potential catalytic reduction of CO2. The structure displays N—H⋯O, N—H⋯F hydrogen bonding and significant π–π stacking and C—H⋯π stacking inter­actions.

The AgI atom is coordinated by pyrido N atoms and is two-coordinate; however, the AgI atom has nearby O atoms that can be assumed to be weakly bonded – one from the perchlorate anion and one from the methanol solvate molecule. One of the thienyl groups on a 2,3-bis­(thio­phen-2-yl)pyrido[3,4-b]pyrazine is flipped disordered and was refined to occupancies of 68.4 (6) and 31.6 (6)%.

At 100 K, the crystal symmetry is monoclinic (space group P21/n). A mixture of water and methanol crystallizes with the title complex, and one of the ethyl groups in the coordinating ligands is disordered over two positions, with an occupancy ratio of 58:42. There is inter­molecular hydrogen bonding between the solvent mol­ecules and the amine and thiol­ate groups in the ligands. No other significant inter­actions are present in the crystal packing.

The heterocyclic mol­ecule is quasi-planar with a dihedral angle between the phenyl rings on the periphery of the mol­ecule of 1.73 (19)°. Short H⋯S (2.92 Å) and C—H⋯π [2.836 (3) Å] contacts are observed in the crystal with shorted π–π stacking distances of 3.438 (3) Å along the b axis. Surprisingly, and unlike a closely related material, this mol­ecule readily forms large crystals by sublimation and by slow evaporation from di­chloro­methane. The maximum absorbance in the UV-Vis spectrum is at 533 nm. Emission was measured upon excitation at 533 nm with a fluorescence λmax of 658 nm and cutoff of 900 nm.

(SC,RS)-Bromido­(N-{4-methyl-1-[(4-methyl­phenyl)sul­fan­yl]­pentan-2-yl}-N'-(pyridin-2-yl)imidazol-2-yl­idene)palladium(II) bromide

The mol­ecule of the title NCNHCS pincer N-heterocyclic carbene palladium(II) complex, [PdBr(C21H25N3S)]Br, exhibits a slightly distorted square-planar coordination at the palladium(II) atom, with the five-membered chelate ring nearly planar. The six-membered chelate ring adopts an envelope conformation. Upon chelation, the sulfur atom becomes a stereogenic centre with an RS configuration induced by the chiral carbon of the precursor imidazolium salt. There are intra­molecular C—H⋯Br—Pd hydrogen bonds in the structure. The two inter­stitial Br atoms, as the counter-anion of the structure, are both located on crystallographic twofold axes and are connected to the complex cations via C—H⋯·Br hydrogen bonds.

In the structure of the title complex, [Zn(C4H2FN2O2)(C10H24N4)]ClO4, the zinc(II) ion forms coordination bonds with the four nitro­gen atoms of cyclam (1,4,8,11-tetra­aza­cyclo­tetra­decane or [14]aneN4) as well as with the nitro­gen atom of a deprotonated 5-fluoro­uracil ion (FU−). Cyclam adopts a trans-I type conformation within this structure. The coordination structure of the zinc(II) ion is a square pyramid with a distorted base plane formed by the four nitro­gen atoms of the cyclam.

Chlorido­(2-{(2-hy­droxy­eth­yl)[tris­(hy­droxy­meth­yl)meth­yl]amino}­ethano­lato-κ5N,O,O',O'',O''')copper(II)

The title complex, [Cu(C8H18NO5)Cl] or [Cu(H4bis-tris­)Cl], was obtained starting from the previously reported [Cu(H5bis-tris­)Cl]Cl compound. The deprotonation of the amino­polyol ligand H5bis-tris {[bis­(2-hy­droxy­eth­yl)amino]­tris­(hy­droxy­meth­yl)methane, C8H19NO5} promotes the formation of a very strong O—H⋯O inter­molecular hydrogen bond, characterized by an H⋯O separation of 1.553 (19) Å and an O—H⋯O angle of 178 (4)°. The remaining hy­droxy groups are also engaged in hydrogen bonds, forming R22(8), R44(16), R44(20) and R44(22) ring motifs, which stabilize the triperiodic supra­molecular network.

Tetra­kis(2,4,6-tri­methyl­anilido)tin(IV)

Transamination of Sn(NMe2)4 with H2NMes (Mes is 2,4,6-tri­methyl­phenyl, C9H11) led to the formation of the title compound, [Sn(C9H12N)4] or Sn(NHMes)4, which crystallizes in the tetra­gonal space group Poverline{4}21c, with four formula units per unit cell. The mol­ecular structure consists of a central tin(IV) atom, which is surrounded by four NHMes groups. Sn(NHMes)4 possesses crystallographically imposed overline{4} symmetry.

Both the carboxyl groups and the amino group are involved in an extensive multicentered inter­molecular hydrogen-bonding scheme. In the crystal, the diperiodic network of hydrogen bonds propagates parallel to (101) and involves inter­connected heterodromic R43(10) rings. Electrostatic forces are major contributors to the structure energy, which was estimated by DFT calculations as Etotal = −333.5 kJ mol−1.

Ilmenite-type Na2(Fe2/3Te4/3)O6

Na2(Fe2/3Te4/3)O6 (Z = 3) or Na3(FeTe2)O9 (Z = 2), tris­odium iron(III) ditellurium(VI) nona­oxide, adopts the ilmenite (FeTiO3, Z = 6) structure type with the Ti site (site symmetry 3.) replaced by Na and the Fe site (site symmetry 3.) replaced by a mixed-occupied (FeIII,TeVI) site in a Fe:Te ratio of 1:2. Whereas the [(Fe,Te)O6] octa­hedron is only slightly distorted, the [NaO6] octa­hedron shows much stronger distortions, as revealed by a larger spread of the bond lengths and some distortion parameters.
