AbstractCd3(BO3)2 was prepared by a solid state reaction between B(OH)3 and Cd(OH)2 at low temperatures ranging between 523° and 623° and at a pressure of 10−4 – 10−5 Hg mm. The crystal structure has been refined by Rietveld analysis of X-ray powder diffraction data. The compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, space group Pnnm, Z = 2, with cell parameters of a = 5.967(5) Å, b = 4.78 (0) Å and c = 9.009(5) Å.

The first metal complexes comprising amidinoguanidinate ligands have been prepared and structurally characterized, namely bis[μ-N,N′,N′′,N′′′-tetraisopropyl-1-(1-butylamidinato)guanidinato-κ3N1,N2:N2]bis[(tetrahydrofuran)lithium], [Li2(C18H37N4)2(C4H8O)2], (2), and [bis(tetrahydrofuran)lithium]-di-μ-chlorido-{(N,N′-dicyclohexyl-1-butylamidinato-κ2N1,N2)[N,N′,N′′,N′′′-tetracyclohexyl-1-(1-butylamidinato)guanidinato-κ2N1,N2]holmate(III)}, [HoLiCl2(C4H8O)2(C17H31N2)(C30H53N4)], (3). The novel lithium amidinoguanidinate precursors Li[nBuC(=NR)(NR)C(NR)2] [1:R= Cy (cyclohexyl),2:R=iPr) were obtained by treatment ofN,N′-diorganocarbodiimides,R—N=C=N—R(R=iPr, Cy), with 0.5 equivalents ofn-butyllithium under well-defined reaction conditions. An X-ray diffraction study of2revealed a ladder-type dimeric structure in the solid state. Reaction of anhydrous holmium(III) chloride within situ-prepared2afforded the unexpected holmium `ate' complex [nBuC(=NCy)(NCy)C(NCy)2]Ho[nBuC(NCy)2](μ-Cl)2Li(THF)2(3) in 71% yield. An X-ray crystal structure determination of3showed that this complex contains both an amidinate ligand and the new amidinoguanidinate ligand.

The reaction of lithium 2-(dimethylamino)ethanolate with Me2SiCl2 yielded a lithium chloride adduct of Me2Si- (OCH2CH2NMe2)2. Despite the application of an excess of Me2SiCl2, the formation of ClMe2SiOCH2CH2NMe2 was not observed. [Me2Si(OCH2CH2NMe2)2・Li2Cl2] was characterised by NMR spectroscopy and determination of its crystal structure by X-ray diffraction. In the solid state it forms endless chains consisting of Li2Cl2 rhombi, with the lithium atoms chelated by the O and N atom of one OCH2- CH2NMe2 substituent of Me2Si(OCH2CH2NMe2)2 units.

The molecular structures of exo-7-methylbicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-3-one, 3, and the endo-7-methyl isomer, 4, have been determined using X-ray-diffraction techniques. Compound 3 crystallizes in the space group [Formula: see text] with a = 15.115(1), c = 7.677(2) Å, and Z = 8 while 4 crystallizes in the space group P21 with a = 6.446(1), b = 7.831(1), c = 8.414(2) Å, β = 94.42(2)°, and Z = 2. The structures were solved by direct methods and refined to final agreement factors of R = 0.041 and R = 0.034 for 3 and 4 respectively. Compound 3 exists in a chair–chair conformation and there is no significant flattening of the chair rings. However, in 4, the non-ketone ring is forced into a boat conformation. These results are significant in interpreting what conformations may be present in the related sp2-hybridized carbocations.

AbstractA new metal-organic framework, [Pb(hmpcaH)2]n (1), has been hydrothermally synthesized from Pb(OAc)2 · 3H2O and 2-hydroxy-6-methylpyridine-4-carboxylic acid (hmpcaH2; 2), and characterized by IR spectroscopy, elemental and thermogravimetric analysis, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In complex 1, each hmpcaH− ligand represents a three-connected node to combine with the hexacoordinated Pb(II) ions, generating a 3D binodal (3,6)-connected ant network. The crystal structure of 2 was determined. The solid-state fluorescence properties of 1 and 2 were investigated.

A new solvatomorph of [Au3(1-Methylimidazolate)3] (Au3(MeIm)3)—the simplest congener of imidazolate-based Au(I) cyclic trinuclear complexes (CTCs)—has been identified and structurally characterized. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction revealed a dichloromethane solvate exhibiting remarkably short intermolecular Au⋯Au distances (3.2190(7) Å). This goes along with a dimer formation in the solid state, which is not observed in a previously reported solvent-free crystal structure. Hirshfeld analysis, in combination with density functional theory (DFT) calculations, indicates that the dimerization is generally driven by attractive aurophilic interactions, which are commonly associated with the luminescence properties of CTCs. Since Au3(MeIm)3 has previously been reported to be emissive in the solid-state, we conducted a thorough photophysical study combined with phase analysis by means of powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), to correctly attribute the photophysically active phase of the bulk material. Interestingly, all investigated powder samples accessed via different preparation methods can be assigned to the pristine solvent-free crystal structure, showing no aurophilic interactions. Finally, the observed strong thermochromism of the solid-state material was investigated by means of variable-temperature PXRD, ruling out a significant phase transition being responsible for the drastic change of the emission properties (hypsochromic shift from 710 nm to 510 nm) when lowering the temperature down to 77 K.
