Lead(II) perchlorate crystallizes from aqueous ethanol with 2,4,6-tris(2-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazine (trz) as a 1 : 2 trihydrate adduct, [(trz)2Pb(OH2)(O2ClO2)](ClO4)�2H2O, as has been confirmed by a low temperature (ca .153 K) single crystal X-ray structure determination. The lead(II) environment is derivative of that of the previously recorded hydrated (rather than the methanol solvated) nitrate complex, comprising a pair of tridentate trz ligands, and, in place of the pair of bidentate nitrates, a unidentate water and an unsymmetrically bidentate perchlorate ion. A redetermination of the structure of bis(2-aminomethylpyridine)lead(II) bis(perchlorate) has resulted in a non-disordered model, still based upon the [Pb(amp)2(OClO3)2] entity, where amp = 2-aminomethylpyridine, but with eight independent molecules, devoid of any crystallographic symmetry, comprising the asymmetric unit of the structure, which is described in a larger unit cell of lower symmetry.

A low-temperature single-crystal X-ray structure determination of the 1 : 1 adduct of copper(II) nitrate with 2,2′-diphenyl-4,4′-bithiazole (L) shows it to be a molecular complex with L behaving as a symmetrical N,N′ chelate, and the nitrate groups as unsymmetrical O,O′ chelates: [LCu(O2NO)2]. Two polymorphs, both monoclinic P21/c, have been obtained from acetonitrile (‘α’) and methanol (‘β’), respectively, with one molecule, devoid of crystallographic symmetry, in the asymmetric unit of each structure. The copper environments are distorted planar four-coordinate, cis-N2CuO2 (Cu–N 2.011(1), 1.973(1), Cu–O 1.995(1), 1.962(1) Å), ‘in-plane’ angle sum Σ 369.5°, with longer trans, axial contacts (Cu–O 2.455(1), 2.458(2) Å) for the α-form; respective values are 1.995(5), 1.991(4), 1.997(4), 1.973(3) Å, 360.4°, 2.500(4), and 2.396(4) Å for the β-form.

The 1 : 1 adducts between the copper(I) halides, CuX , X = Cl , Br, I, and the title ligand, 'triphos', Ph2P(CH2)2P(Ph)(CH2)2PPh2, have been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray structure determination. The three complexes are isomorphous : monoclinic P21/c, a ≈ 14.5, b ≈ 20.5, c ≈ 24.5 Ǻ, β ≈ 118.5°; the asymmetric unit of each structure is the binuclear [Cu2X2( triphos )2] unit (with one acetonitrile solvate). Residuals were 0.047, 0.049 and 0.065 for 6006, 4832 and 5108 'observed', independent reflections respectively. About each copper atom, the four-coordinate environment comprises a terminal halogen [Cu- Cl,Br,I , 2.305(3), 2.311(2); 2.441(2), 2.443(2); 2.614(2), 2.614(2)Ǻ], two phosphorus atoms (central and distal) from the same ligand , and one distal phosphorus atom from the other ligand.

The isolation of trans-1-(2'-hydroxyethyl)cyclohexane-1,4-diol from the flowers of Millingtonia hortensis and its characterization, including a single-crystal X-ray structure determination at 295 K, is described. Crystals are triclinic, P1, a 12.348(5), b 11 .390(5), c 6.575(3) � , α 112.16(3), β 90.79(4), γ°, Z 4. R was 0.045 for 1475 independent 'observed', diffractometer reflections. In the two independent molecules of the asymmetric unit, the cyclohexane ring is in the usual 'chair' conformation with the ring hydroxy substituents occupying axial positions. The hydroxyethyl groups, however, adopt different orientations in the two molecules.

1,1-Dimethyl-1-germa (and-1-sila) -6,7-cycloundecanediol (C12H26O2Ge and C12H26O2Si) are isostructural as established by their X-ray powder patterns. The dimensions of the triclinic cells are as follows: for the silicon derivative, a = 10.53, b = 12.45, and c = 12.43 Å, α = 81.5°, β = 67.0°, and γ = 76.3°; for the germanium derivative, a = 10.56, b = 12.50, and c = 12.58 Å, α = 82.1°, β = 67.8°, and γ = 76.1°. If the space group is [Formula: see text] there will be two independent molecules in each asymmetric unit.

The β_1^{\prime}-2 crystal structures of a series of mixed-chain saturated and trans-mono-unsaturated triacylglycerols containing palmitoyl, stearoyl and elaidoyl acyl chains have been solved from high-resolution powder diffraction data, from synchrotron as well as laboratory X-ray sources. The structures crystallized in the space group I2 with two independent molecules forming a dimer in the asymmetric unit, and packed in double-chain length layers. Unlike the corresponding β-2 structures the solved β_1^{\prime}-2 structures have different molecular conformations for the symmetric and the asymmetric mixed triacylglycerols, both with the sn-2 chain in a leg position of the chair-shaped conformation. A transformation to the β-2 structure with the sn-2 chain in the back position is complicated and unlikely to take place in the solid state. A novel β′-2 polymorph of PSS has been crystallized and its structure has been solved. The melting point (239 K) of this so-called β_0^{\prime}-2 polymorph is 2 K above that of the β_1^{\prime}-2 polymorph and almost equal to that of the β-2 polymorph of PSS. The difference in packing of the β_0^{\prime}-2 versus β_1^{\prime}-2 structure explains the slow β_1^{\prime}-2 to β_0^{\prime}-2 phase transition. The transition is strikingly similar to the β2-3 to β1-3 transition in cis-mono-unsaturated triacylglycerols.

N,N′-Dibutyl-terephthaldiamide (1), N,N′-dihexyl-terephthaldiamide (2), N,N′-di(tert-butyl)- terephthaldiamide (3), N,N,N′,N′-tetrabutyl-terephthaldiamide (4), 1,1′-terephthaloylbis- pyrrolidine (5), 1,1′-terephthaloyl-bis-piperidine (6), and 4,4′-terephthaloyl-bis-morpholine (7) have been synthesised and physicochemically characterised. The X-ray structure determinations reveal imposed inversion symmetry for compounds 1-6; compound 3 has two independent molecules with inversion symmetry in the asymmetric unit. Compounds 1-3 form classical hydrogen bonds of the type N-H···O=C, leading to a ribbon-like arrangement of molecules (1 and 2) or a layer structure (3). Compound 3 also displays a very short C-H···O interaction, a type of hydrogen bond that is also observed in compounds 4-7, which lack classical donors; thereby compounds 4-6 form layer structures and 7 a complex threedimensional network.

Abstract The Compound [S(AUPPh3)2] · CH2Cl2 was prepared from Ph3PAuCl and H2S in CH2Cl2 and characterised by X-ray structure determination [P21/c, a = 1851.6(4), b = 2225.1(6), c = 880.3(2) pm, β = 96.32(1)°, Z = 4, R = 0.053]. A constrained refinement of the light atom positions was necessary because of pseudosymmetry. Ph3PAuPF6 reacts with Se(Sn)(CH3)3)2 to give [Se(AuPPh3)3]+PF6- which was also characterised by X-ray methods [P1̄, a = 1539.5(6), b = 1800.5(7), c = 2289.5(9) pm, α = 89.35(3), β = 72.44(3), γ = 69.75(3)°, Z = 4, R = 0.061]. There are two formula units in the asymmetric unit. Both structures show short Au···Au contacts (ca. 300-340 pm).

Hydrolysis of 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone in aqueous ethanol gives the deep-red coloured ammonium salt of a monocyano-dichloro-monohydroxy-benzoquinone which crystallizes in the tetragonal space group I41 /a, a 20.832(5), c 8.618(2) �, Z 16. Single-crystal X-ray structure determination (R 0.036 for 1185 'observed' reflections) show the presence of ammonium cations forming hydrogen bonds in the lattice alternatingly with the tautomeric anion of 2-cyano-5,6-dichloro-3-hydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone and 3-cyano-5,6-dichloro-4-hydroxy-1,2-benzoquinone.

Diosgenone [(20S,22R,25R)-spirost-4-en-3-one, C27H40O3] has been proposed as a new therapeutic alternative for the treatment of malaria. The first X-ray structure report for diosgenone was by Piroet al.[(2002).Z. Naturforsch. Teil C,57, 947–950] in the space groupP21(Z′ = 2). We now report a new polymorph in the same space group, with two molecules in the asymmetric unit. Both molecules have similar conformations, characterized by a skewed envelopeAring, which contains the C=C bond conjugated with the ketone functionality at C3. The dimorphism results from a modification of the relative orientation of the molecules in the asymmetric unit: two independent molecules were arranged antiparallel in the Piro report, while they are parallel in the present determination.

The crystal and molecular structures of 3(5),4-dimethylpyrazole, C5H8N2, (I), and of 3,4,5-trimethylpyrazole, C6H10N2, (II), have been determined at 200 K. In (I) the 4,5-dimethylpyrazole tautomer is present in the solid state and the six independent molecules in the asymmetric unit form trimers via NH...N hydrogen bonds related by a pseudo centre of symmetry. The asymmetric unit of (II) contains one and a half molecules: these exhibit NH proton disorder and are hydrogen bonded to each other via their respective NH groups to form chains. Ab initio calculations at HF and B3LYP/6-31G** levels indicate that the 3,4-dimethylpyrazole tautomer is more stable than the 4,5-dimethylpyrazole tautomer by only approximately 0.5  kcal  mol−1 (1 kcal mol−1 = 4.184 kJ mol−1).
