An X-ray analysis of single crystals of bis[1,1,1- tris(diphenylphosphinomethyl)ethane]platinum(O) is described. The crystals are triclinic, space group Aī, a 15.018(5), b 25.937(9), c 22.722(8) Ǻ; α 104.16(2)�, β 115.80(2)�, γ 88.65(2)�, Z4. ��� The diffraction data (Mo Kα; automatic diffractometry) have provided all atomic positions (with the exception of hydrogen atoms) and the scattering model has been refined by least-squares methods to R 0.084 (4774 independent reflections). The platinum has a distorted tetrahedral stereochemistry (with mean Pt-P 2.287 Ǻ), only four of the six phosphorus ligand atoms being coordinated. This stereochemistry is preserved in solution. A discussion of the metal-phosphorus bond in low-valent metal complexes is provided, it being concluded that π- bonding effects on bond lengths have been overemphasized in the past.

The crystal and molecular structure of dithiocyanato(triphenylarsine)mercury(II) has been determined from X-ray diffraction data. The crystals are monoclinic, space group P21/c, with a = 10.290(7), b = 21.199(23), c = 10.719(7) Å, β = 112.00(2)°, and Z = 4. The structure has been solved by the heavy-atom method and refined by block-diagonal least-squares calculations. The agreement factor R obtained for 2607 'observed' reflections is 0.030. The crystal consists of single molecules. The 'characteristic' coordination number of mercury is three, with two sulfur and one arsenic atoms at the apexes of a triangle. The nitrogen atoms of the thiocyanate groups are at 2.67 and 2.74 Å from the adjoining mercury atoms and therefore link the different molecules together.

The crystal and molecular structure of β-bromo(diethylaminoethanolato)copper(II) has been determined from three dimensional X-ray diffractometer data. The compound crystallizes in the triclinic space group Pï with one dimer in a unit cell of dimensions α=10.180(II), b=7.999(9), c=6.227(7) Å and a=110.69(4), β=103.12(4), γ=73.82(4)[°]. The structure was refined by least-squares methods using 1944 independent reflexions to give a final R-index of 0,05. The molecule consists of dimeric Cu2O2-units with Cu—O distances of 1.900(4) Å and 1.914(4) A, respectively. The dimers are additional bridged by bromines, so that a “polymeric” structure results; Cu—Br distances are 2.357(2) and 3.660(2) A, respectively. The Cu—Cu distances are 3.003(2) (oxygen bridges) and 4.506(2) Å (bromine bridges).

Fusion invacuo of complexes of the type P2Pt(SR)2 is a facile route to dimers of the type [PPt(SR)(μ-SR)]2; thus, the compounds cis-P2Pt(SR)2, where P = PPh3, PMePh2, R = CH2Ph and trans-P2Pt(SR)2, where P = PPh3, PMePh2, PMe2Ph, R = 4-C6H4CH3 gave the appropriate dimers 1–5. A three-dimensional X-ray structure analysis of the complex [(PMePh2)Pt(SCH2Ph)(μ-SCH2Ph)]2, 2, has shown that it has cis geometry with the benzyl groups of the bridging thiolato ligands oriented anti with respect to each other. The dihedral angle between the two square planes is 138.8°. Crystals of 2 are triclinic, space group [Formula: see text], with two molecules in a cell of dimensions a = 10.856(3) Å, b = 19.935(5) Å, c = 12.202(4) Å, α = 82.52(2)°, β = 105.18(2)°, and γ = 92.35(2)°. Full-matrix least-squares refinement converged at R = 0.052.

The crystal structure of the complex Mn2(CO)8(dam) (dam = Ph2AsCH2AsPh2) has been determined by three-dimensional X-ray diffraction methods. The crystals are triclinic, space group P1, with a 11.191(1), b 16.498(5), c 9.455(1) �, a 93.64(2), β 109.08(2), γ 89.36(2)� and contain two discrete, binuclear molecules of Mn2(CO)8(dam) per unit cell. The structure, solved by direct and Fourier methods, was refined by a least-squares procedure to R and Rw of 0.065 and 0.082 respectively for 1907 independent, statistically significant reflections collected by counter methods. The feature of particular interest in this compound is the accommodation of the bridging bidentate dam ligand [As.. .As separation 3.242(2) �] across a shorter Mn�-Mn� bond [2.962(3) �] which constrains the molecule so that a much less staggered configuration of the two manganese coordination octahedra is observed relative to the parent compound Mn2(CO)10, the rotation of the two equatorial planes in the former being 30�.

The crystal and molecular structure of trans-dichloro(bis(isopropyl)sulfoxide-S)(1-methylcytosine-N)platinum(II) has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystals are triclinic with a = 16.205(5), b = 8.078(2), c = 6.776(2) Å, α = 106.53(2), β = 96.35(2), γ = 98.54(2)°. The space group is [Formula: see text] and there are two molecules per unit cell. A total of 2294 independent reflections, of which 2023 were observed, were examined on a Syntex [Formula: see text] diffractometer. The structure was refined by full matrix least squares analysis to an R2 value of 0.0427. The ligands form a rough square around the platinum atom with Pt—Cl(1), 2.304(3), Pt—Cl(2), 2.287(4), Pt—S, 2.232(2), Pt—N, 2.058(7). Distances within the ligands are normal. The plane of the cytosine ring is at 84.4° to the plane formed by the ligands around platinum.

The crystal and molecular structure of cyclopentadienylcarbonyl-bis(triphenylphosphine)-manganese(benzenate), MnC5H5CO[P(C6H5)3]2•C6H6, has been obtained from analysis of three dimensional X-ray data obtained with a precession camera. The red, rectangular crystals are triclinic, space group [Formula: see text] and have a unit cell with the following parameters: a = 9.83(2) Å, b = 14.79(1) Å, c = 11.36(2) Å, α = 69.44(8)°, β = 66.48(8)°, γ = 67.57(10)°, and z = 2. The final residual factor is 0.087 for the 4554 independent reflections used in the least squares refinement. The structure consists of individual molecules of Mn(C5H5)CO[P(C6H5)3]2. The distance [Formula: see text] is 2.16(1) Å. The coordinate CO (Mn—C: 1.748(9) Å, C—O: 1.172(11) Å) is perpendicular to the plane of the phosphorous and manganese atoms.The important characteristic is the angle P—Mn—P of 104(1)° (Mn—P: 2.237(3) Å). The angular opening of 14° is considered to be a consequence of an electrostatic repulsion between the two donor P atoms. [Journal translation]

Neutron diffraction data obtained with single crystals of potassium pentaborate tetrahydrate have been analyzed using least squares methods. Apart from significant differences in the atomic coordinates of the hydrogen atoms, the structure is in agreement with recent X-ray work. The O—H distances in the hydroxyl groups are 1.012 ± 0.018 and 0.955 ± 0.020 Å. In contrast to the X-ray results, the geometry of the water molecule is normal for an inorganic hydrate with O—H distances of 0.954 ± 0.026 and 1.004 ± 0.018 Å and an H—O—H angle of 108 ± 2°.

A low temperature (-90 °C) X-ray structural analysis of S6 single crystals yielded improved data for the bond distances (206.8 pm), bond angles (102.6°), and torsion angles (73.8°) of the D3d molecule which are in agreement with current theories of homonuclear sulfur bonds.
