The complex [Na(15-crown-5)][N(SO2CH3)2] crystallizes at —25°C from a methanol solution containing equimolar amounts of NaN(SO2CH3)2 and 15-crown-S. Its crystallographic data at —95°C are: monoclinic, space group P 21/c, a = 852.1(5), b = 2731.9(12), c = 909.2(4) pm, β = 115.53(4)°, V = 1.910 nm3, Z = 4, Dx = 1.445 Mgm3. The structure in the solid state consists of ion pairs. The sodium cation is coordinated to the five oxygen atoms of the crown ether, one oxygen atom of the anion, and to the nitrogen atom of the anion. The bond distances are Na—O(crown) 238.7-247.2, Na—O(sulfonyl) 234.9, Na—N 275.8 pm. The sodium ion lies 78 pm out of the plane of the crown ether oxygen atoms. The conformation of the coronand is described.

Single crystals of the title complex were fortuitously grown from a dichloromethane solution containing 18-crown-6 and sulfur trioxide. Crystallographic data (at -130 °C): triclinic, space group P1̄, a = 819.1(7). b = 860.6(7), c = 905.8(7) pm. a = 63.98(3), β = 66.56(3), y = 74.95(3)°, V = 0.5236 nm3, Z = 1, Dx, = 1.377 Mgm-3. In the centrosymmetric formula unit, the two CH2Cl2 molecules are situated one above and one below the plane of the ether oxygen atoms. They are C-H···O hydrogen-bonded to two opposing oxygen atoms (H-O 237.1 and 270.6 pm, C-O 335.5 and 365.9 pm, C-H···O 171.7 and 161.8°). The crown ether molecule has approximate D3d symmetry

Zinc complexes have been prepared with Schiff bases formed from salicylaldehyde and polymethylenediamines with chains of 2-9 carbon atoms. The anhydrous zinc complexes of ligands with 2-3 carbon chains readily form 1 : 1 adducts with water or bases such as pyridine; the ultraviolet and infrared spectra of these anhydrous compounds indicate that they are polymeric with bridging oxygen atoms, the zinc being 5-coordinate. The zinc complexes of ligands with carbon chains of four or more atoms do not form adducts, even in pyridine solution, and their spectra show that none of the oxygen atoms is bridging, the zinc being 4-coordinate. The stereochemistry of the zinc appears to be determined solely by steric effects: when the ligand is such that 4-coordination can produce a tetrahedral environment, further coordination does not occur; when 4-coordination cannot produce a tetrahedral environment, 5- coordination always occurs.

A new crown ether-POM (POM = polyoxometalate) adduct with the molecular formula [(C14- H20O5)4(H3O)3]PMo12O40 ・ 0.5CH3CN (1) was isolated from the mixed solvent of acetonitrile and methanol. The adduct is constructed from Keggin [PMo12O40]3− anions and [(C14H20O5)- (H3O+)] and [(C14H20O5)2(H3O+)] cations via electrostatic and hydrogen bonding interactions. The supramolecular interactions combine the crown ether with oxonium ions. In the [(C14H20O5)- (H3O+)] moieties, the oxonium ions reside out of the planes defined by the oxygen atoms of the crown ether. The [(C14H20O5)2(H3O+)] moieties exhibit a sandwich structure. There exist hydrogen bonds between the oxonium ions of the [(C14H20O5)(H3O)]+ cations and the acetonitrile molecules and the terminal and bridging oxygen atoms of the [PMo12O40]3− anions. The adduct has been used as a bulk-modifier to fabricate a chemically modified carbon paste electrode (MCPE), which displays well-defined cyclic voltammograms with three reversible two-electron redox couples in acidic aqueous solution, and electrocatalytic activities towards the reduction of H2O2 and NO2−.

[Cs(18-crown-6)(CH3CO3)] (1) has been obtained by the reaction of CsOCH3 with 18-crown-6 (1,4,7,10,13,16-hexaoxacyclooctadecane) in methanol in a CO2 atmosphere. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/n (no. 14) with a = 12.141(3), b = 8.610(1), c = 17.985(4) Å , β = 91.17(2)° and V = 1879.6(7) Å3. Cs is tenfold coordinated by six oxygen atoms of the crown ether and four oxygen atoms of two methyl carbonate anions which act as bidentate ligands. The slow hydrolysis of the methylcarbonate results in the hydrogencarbonate complex {Cs2(18-crown- 6)2 · [H2(CO3)2] · H2O · CH3OH} (2), the basic structural constitution of the starting material being retained. This new compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with a = 8.657 (7), b = 22.601 (2), c = 19.619 (15) Å, β = 92.09 (6)° and V = 3836.5 (6) Å3.

AbstractThe hypothesis that the degree of hydration of poly(oxyethylene) (POE) in aqueous solution depends on the mole ratio of water molecules to ether oxygen atoms in the molecule has been verified by studying the isotropic Raman spectra in the O−H stretching region for four short-chain POEs (C 1EnC 1 withn=1−4). Excellent coincidence of the O−H stretching Raman band for all four POEs studied in the range of mole ratio H2O/Oether from 25 to 0.6 was observed, thus confirming the assumption stated above. A conclusion that all ether oxygen atoms in the POE molecule participate in hydrogen bonding with water molecules has been made.

Single crystals of (18-crown-6) · 2 CH3CN were obtained by cooling a solution of 18-crown-6 in acetonitrile to 4 °C. Space group P21/n, Z = 2, 629 observed independent reflexions, R = 0.062. Lattice dimensions at 19°C: a = 911.7(1), b = 852.0(1), c = 1370.0(2) pm; β = 104.61(1)°. The compound forms a molecular structure with approximate D3d symmetry of the crown ether molecule, and C—H ··· O interactions of the acetonitrile molecules with the crown ether, the Η···Ο distances being 243, 253, and 267 pm, respectively.[Na-15-crown-5][ReO4] · CH3CN is formed as a by-product of the reaction of ReNCl4 with sodium fluoride in acetonitrile in the presence of 15-crown-5 and traces of water. Space group Ρ 1̄ , Ζ = 2, 3107 observed independent reflexions, R = 0.045. Lattice dimensions at 19°C: a = 823.4(1), b = 1078.8(1), c = 1204.0(1) pm; α = 112.40(1)°, β = 94.35(1)°, γ = 104.63(1)°. The compound forms ion pairs, in which the sodium atom is sixfold coordinated by the five oxygen atoms of the crown ether molecule, as well as by one oxygen atom of the ReO4- ion, which is only slightly distorted. The bond length Na—OReO3 is 237.8(8) pm, the bond angle NaORe is 164.3(5)°.[Na-15-crown-5]PF6 is formed in the reaction of [ReCl3(NSCl)2 · POC13] with sodium fluoride in acetonitrile solution in the presence of 15-crown-5. Space group Pna21, Ζ = 4, 1130 observed independent reflexions, R = 0.123. The high R value is due to disorder of the skeletal atoms of the crown ether molecule. The compound forms ion pairs, in which the sodium atom is sevenfold coordinated by the five oxygen atoms of the crown ether molecule, as well as by two fluorine atoms of the PF6- ion with Na—F bond lengths of 240(2), and 246(2) pm, respectively.
