A room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structure determination of the 1 : 1 adduct of 1,10-phenanthroline (`phen") with lutetium(III) acetate (as its dihydrate) is recorded. Crystals are triclinic, P 1, a 12·430(8), b 10·681(4), c 8·134(8) Å, α 74·76(6), β 84·81(7), γ 74·29(4)°, Z = 2 f.u.; conventional R on |F| was 0·031 for No 3939 independent ‘observed’ (I > 3σ(I)) diffractometer reflections. The complex [(N,N′-phen)(O,O′-ac)Lu(O-ac-O′)4Lu(O,O′-ac)(N,N′-phen)].2H2O is binuclear, the lutetium being eight-coordinated by bidentate phen and ac (acetate) ligands and four oxygen atoms from the bridging acetate ligands. Also recorded is the structural characterization of 1 : 1 Lu(ac)2Cl/tpy (tpy = 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine) as its pentahydrate; this complex is triclinic, P 1, a 12·410(3), b 11·559(4), c 9·976(4) Å, α 85·19(3), β 70·30(3), γ 65·70(2)°, Z = 2, R 0·049 for No 4717. The complex is shown to be [(tpy)(H2O)2Lu(O2CCH3)2]Cl.3H2O, with the lutetium nine-coordinated by tridentate tpy, a pair of bidentate acetates and two unidentate water molecules, with the chloride uncoordinated. Structural characterizations of a number of 1 : 1 adducts of variously solvated lanthanoid(III) trichloroacetates, Ln(tca)3, with tpy are also recorded. Yb(tca)3/tpy/MeOH (1 : 1 : 1) is triclinic, P 1, a 14·016(4), b 12·951(5), c 9·604(3) Å, α 73·89(3), β 76·56(3), γ 69·20(3)°, Z = 2 f.u., R 0·057 for No 4465. The complex is mononuclear, the eight-coordinate N3YbO5 array containing tridentate tpy, unidentate methanol, and two unidentate and one bidentate chelating anions. 1 : 1 : 1 Ln(tca)3/tpy/OH2 adducts for Ln = La(-)Nd are triclinic, P 1, a ≈ 13·4, b ≈ 12·47, c ≈ 11·5 Å, α ≈ 114·5, β ≈ 89·9, γ ≈ 115·6°, Z = 1 binuclear array, R 0·061, 0·071 for No 3240, 2394. The two Ln atoms are O,O′-bridged by a pair of anions, the N3LnO6 nine-coordinate lanthanoid environment being completed by a tridentate tpy, one water, one unidentate and one bidentate anion. A 1 : 1 : 1 Lu(tca)3/tpy/OH2 array, by contrast, is triclinic, P 1, a 16·569(8), b 14·815(5), c 14·375(6) Å, α 62·05(3), β 81·35(4), γ 77·97(3)°, Z = 4 ‘mononuclear’ f.u., R 0·067 for No 6710. The array, remarkably, contains species of both of the above types in a 1 : 2 binuclear-to-mononuclear ratio, but with water replacing methanol in the mononuclear array.

Single-crystal room-temperature X-ray structure determinations of the title compounds have been carried out. The two compounds are isomorphous, and isomorphous with the previously determined iodide analogue, being monoclinic, P 21/c, a ≈ 10.0, b ≈ 14.9, c ≈ 7.8 Ǻ, β ≈ 92°, Z = 4 formula units; residuals were 0.037, 0.036 for 2197, 1654 'observed' reflections for X = Cl , Br respectively. As in the iodide, the complexes are infinite polymers, with successive bismuth atoms bridged by the two halides and one sulfur atom of the ligand , which also chelates each bismuth. The structure determination of C5H5NCONEt2]2 [Cl5Bi(NC5H5)], isostructural with its thiocarbamoyl analogue, is also recorded.

The room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structural characterization of the title compound (tpyH2)2[Tb(OH2)8]Cl7.~2⅓H2O is recorded. Crystals are triclinic, Pī , a 17.063(5), b 16.243(3), c 7.878(3) Ǻ, α 84.78(2), β 84.39(3), γ 87.81(2)°, Z = 2 formula units; 3167 'observed' diffractometer reflections were refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to a residual of 0.057. Notable features of interest of the compound are the 'chelation' of chloride ions by the terpyridinium cations , and the existence of a free [Tb(OH2)8]2+ cation in the presence of an abundance of chloride ions.

Room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structural characterizations of two oxidation products of triphenylstibine of the form XPh3SbOSbPh3X are recorded for X = Cl, NO3. ClPh3SbOSbPh3Cl is monoclinic, P 21/c, Z = 4 f.u., a 9·109(4), b 19·809(8), c 19·30(2) Å, β 109·27(5)°, conventional R on F being 0·038 for No 4431 ‘observe’ (I > 3σ(I)) independent reflections. In this complex, Sb-O-Sb is quasi-linear, 173·1(3)°, in contrast to the previously recorded benzene solvate, in which it is 139·0(3)°; in the nitrate, [(O2NO)Ph3SbOSbPh3(ONO2)], triclinic, P-1, Z = 2 f.u., a 15·609(5), b 13·238(4), c 10·140(2) Å, α 87·11(2), β 88·46(7), γ 72·93(2)°, R 0·036 for No 5275, it is also bent (137·0(2)°). The anionic substituent is opposed to the oxo bridge in the trigonal bipyramidal five-coordinate array about the metal in both complexes. A redetermination of the structure of Ph8Sb4O6 is recorded, presenting a non-disordered model in a triclinic P-1 cell, a 19·98(3), b 11·635(2), c 9·739(2) Å, α 92·28(1), β 98·98(1), γ 99·74(1)°, Z = 2 f.u., R 0·046 for No 3578. A new (‘β’) phase of triphenylstibine, crystallized from hexane/toluene is also recorded: monoclinic, P 21/c, a 15·386(8), b 11·304(5), c 19·078(8) Å, β11·64(4)°, Z = 8, R 0·045 for No 3393.

Room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structural characterizations are recorded for hydrated lan- thanoid(III) bromide/2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine (tpy) (1 : 1) complexes, showing all to be ionic and of the form [(tpy)Ln(OH2)x]Br3.yH2O, where x and y are 6 and 1 for the isomorphous series Ln = La(-)Er (and intermediate members, by presumption), and 5 and various values for Ln = Tm, Yb, Lu. Crystals of [(tpy)Ln(OH2)6]Br3.H2O are monoclinic, P 21/c, a ≈ 8·5, b ≈ 18, c ≈ 16·3 Å, β ≈ 108°, Z = 4; for Ln = La, Er, conventional R values on |F| were 0·048, 0·080 for No 4027, 1347 ‘observed’ (I > 3σ(I)) diffractometer reflections respectively. The complex [(tpy)Tm(OH2)5]Br3.H2O is monoclinic, P 21/c, a 8·506(4), b 17·376(1), c 15·951(6) Å, β 106·87(3)°, Z = 4, (quasi-)isomorphous with the Ln = La-Er array, R 0·065 for No 2067. [(tpy)Yb(OH2)5]Br3.4H2O is triclinic, P 1, a 11·902(2), b 11·639(3), c 9·831(2) Å, α 98·92(2), β 106·84(2), γ 92·42(2)°, Z = 2, R 0·062 for No 3422, while [(tpy)Lu(OH2)5]Br3.H2O is monoclinic, P 21/n, a 13·635(8), b 9·022(5), c 19·03(1) Å, β 99·02(5)°, Z = 4, R 0·043 for No 3139. Despite a common N3LnO5 coordination sphere in the last three compounds, subtle differences are found in stereochemistry; in the N3LnO6 array, one of the outer water molecules becomes progressively detached as the lanthanoid radius contracts. Some tendency is found toward the end of the lanthanoid series toward the formation of di(hydroxy-bridged) neutral dimers, Ln(OH)Br2/tpy/H2O(1 : 1 : 8)(×2), [(tpy)(H2O)3Ln(µ-OH)2Ln(OH2)3(tpy)]Br4.10H2O, monoclinic, C 2/c, a ≈ 19·5, b ≈ 14·5, c ≈ 17·1 Å, β ≈ 92°, Z = 4 dimers, thus far defined by full determinations for the extrema Lu = Er, Lu (and Y), R 0·055, 0·043, (0·047) for No 3141, 4591, (2991) respectively; the dimer is disposed about a crystallographic 2 -axis. An Ln = Dy example, seemingly isomorphous, has also been characterized by cell determination.

The room temperature X-ray single-crystal structural characterization of a protonated copper(II) complex of a ligand artefact, L′, of L = N-Me6sar (described in an accompanying paper) is recorded, the new ligand L′ being generated formally by elimination of a CH2CH2 bridge between a pair of nitrogen donor atoms of L. The complex, [ ClCu (H2L′) (ClO4)3.2H2O, is orthorhombic, Pccn , a 22.528(7), b 10.544(3), c 13.748(6) Ǻ, Z = 4 formula units, R being 0.053 for 1133 independent 'observed' [I > 3σ(I)] reflections. The cation, containing five-coordinate square-pyramidal ClCuN4 copper, is disposed with the Cu- Cl bond [2.458(3)Ǻ] lying on a crystallographic 2 axis; Cu-N distances are 2.094(8) and 2.093(8)Ǻ.

Complexes [ XCu ( py )(PPh3)2], X = Cl, Br, I, py = pyridine, have been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray structure determination. Chloride and iodide derivatives have similar cells [ isomorphous (?) but not isostructural ], triclinic, pi, a = 19.5 A, b = 10.5, c = 9.6 � , α ≈ 66, β ≈ 86, γ ≈ 83�, Z = 2; the bromide is monoclinic, Cc, a 13.568(9), b 15.760(12), c 16.545(8) � , β 95.65(5)�, Z = 4. Cl, Br, I structures were refined to residuals of 0.042, 0.055, 0.039 for 4288, 2241, 4808 'observed' reflections. In all cases, the copper atom is four-coordinate; for such an array, Cu-X lengths are unusually short [2.318(2), 2.459(2), 2.636(1) � (Cl, Br, I) and Cu-N unusually long (2.14(1) � ], while (Cu-P) increase from 2.264 to 2.288 � across the series. The dominant aspect of the complexes is thus that of XCu (PPh3)2 solvated by pyridine.
