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.

Ethidium benzoate methanol monosolvate

In the title salt solvate (systematic name: 8-amino-5-ethyl-6-phenyl­phenanthridin-5-ium benzoate methanol monosolvate), C21H20N3+·C6H5CO2−·CH3OH, two ethidium cations, C21H20N3+, dimerize about a twofold axis through π–π inter­actions [inter-centroid separation = 3.6137 (4) Å]. The benzoate anions are connected through hydrogen bonding with the –NH2 groups of the ethidium cations and the –OH group of the MeOH mol­ecule. The MeOH mol­ecule also accepts a hydrogen bond from the –NH2 group of the ethidium cation. The result is a one-dimensional hydrogen-bonded chain along the b-axis direction.

Methyl 2-[(Z)-5-bromo-2-oxoindolin-3-yl­idene]­hydrazinecarbodi­thio­ate

The title compound, C10H8BrN3OS2, a brominated di­thio­carbazate imine deriv­ative, was obtained from the condensation reaction of S-methyl­dithio­carbazate (SMDTC) and 5-bromo­isatin. The essentially planar mol­ecule exhibits a Z configuration, with the di­thio­carbazate and 5-bromo­isatin fragments located on the same sides of the C=N azomethine bond, which allows for the formation of an intra­molecular N—H⋯Ob (b = bromo­isatin) hydrogen bond generating an S(6) ring motif. In the crystal, adjacent mol­ecules are linked by pairs of N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming dimers characterized by an R22(8) loop motif. In the extended structure, mol­ecules are linked into a three-dimensional network by C—H⋯S and C—H⋯Br hydrogen bonds, C—Br⋯S halogen bonds and aromatic π–π stacking.

The Ni atoms are bridged by the nitro­gen atom of a deprotonated 2-PyPz ligand. Compound 1 exhibits various inter- and intra­molecular C—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

Poly[tris­(2-amino­butan-1-ol)copper(II) [hexa­kis-μ2-cyanido-κ12C:N-tetra­copper(I)] bis­(2-amino­butan-1-olato)aqua­copper(II) monohydrate]

The title structure, {[Cu(C4H11NO)3][Cu4(CN)6]·[Cu(C4H10NO)2(H2O)]·H2O}n, is made up of diperiodic honeycomb CuICN networks built from [Cu4(CN)6]2− units, together with two independent CuII complexes: six-coord­inate [Cu(CH3CH2CH(NH2)CH2OH)3]2+ cations, and five-coordinate [Cu(CH3CH2CH(NH2)CH2O)2·H2O] neutral species. The two CuII complexes are not covalently bonded to the CuICN networks. Strong O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the CuII complexes into pairs and the pairs are hydrogen bonded into chains along the crystallographic b axis via the hydrate water mol­ecule. In addition, O—H⋯(CN) and N—H⋯(CN) hydrogen bonds link the cations to the CuCN network. In the honeycomb polymeric moiety, all bridging cyanido ligands are disordered over two orientations, head-to-tail and tail-to-head, with occupancies for C and N atoms varying for each CN group.

The CoII atom exhibits a distorted octa­hedral [CoN6] coordination geometry with a bidentate 8-amino­quinoline ligand and four azide ligands. Bridging azide ligands result in chains extending along [100]. N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds join the chains to give an extended structure with sheets parallel to (002).
