Analysis of the weak interactions within the crystal structures of 33 complexes of various 4′-aromatic derivatives of 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine (tpy) shows that interactions that exceed dispersion are dominated, as expected, by cation⋯anion contacts but are associated with both ligand–ligand and ligand–solvent contacts, sometimes multicentred, in generally complicated arrays, probably largely determined by dispersion interactions between stacked aromatic units. With V(V) as the coordinating cation, there is evidence that the polarisation of the ligand results in an interaction exceeding dispersion at a carbon bound to nitrogen with oxygen or fluorine, an interaction unseen in the structures of M(II) (M = Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ru and Cd) complexes, except when 1,2,3-trimethoxyphenyl substituents are present in the 4′-tpy.

Alkali metal thallides go back to the investigative works of Eduard Zintl about base metals in negative oxidation states. In 1932, he described the crystal structure of NaTl as the first representative for this class of compounds. Since then, a bunch of versatile crystal structures has been reported for thallium as electronegative element in intermetallic solid state compounds. For combinations of thallium with alkali metals as electropositive counterparts, a broad range of different unique structure types has been observed. Interestingly, various thallium substructures at the same or very similar valence electron concentration (VEC) are obtained. This in return emphasizes that the role of the alkali metals on structure formation goes far beyond ancillary filling atoms, which are present only due to charge balancing reasons. In this review, the alkali metals are in focus and the local surroundings of the latter are discussed in terms of their crystallographic sites in the corresponding crystal structures.

AbstractThe crystal structures of the salts [Li(1,2-F2C6H4)] [B(C6F5)4] (1) and Cs[B(C6F5)4] (2) comprise six Li···F contacts (1.965(3) − 2.312(3) Å) and twelve Cs···F contacts (3.0312(1) − 3.7397(2) Å), respectively, which are significantly shorter than the sum of van der Waals radii (3.29 and 4.90 Å).

Low-temperature X-ray crystal structures were determined on a range of derivatives of 4-thiacyclohexanol 5a of varying electron demand with a view to finding evidence for a through-bond interaction between the sulfur lone pair and the oxygenated substituent. In contrast to earlier suggestions, plots of C–OR bond distance versus pKa (ROH) showed that any interaction between the sulfur and the OR group is unlikely to be of a through-bond origin. Furthermore, unimolecular solvolysis rate measurements on the nosylate ester derivative 5g showed that the sulfur actually retards the reaction slightly in comparison with the corresponding sulfur-free analogue 6.
