Mixed base pyridine (py)/triphenylphosphine adducts of the silver(I) halides, AgX (X = Cl, Br, I), have been synthesized for 1 : 1 : 1 stoichiometry. The three complexes are isomorphous and isostructural, being monoclinic, P21/c, a ≈ 11.2, b ≈ 16.8, c ≈ 16.5 � , β ≈ 122 � ; the complexes are centrosymmetric �, �?- dihalo -bridged dimers , [(PPh3)( py )AgX2Ag( py )(PPh3)1 (Z = 2 dimers ). Although the stoichiometry of the complex itself is as above, an additional unit of pyridine per silver atom is found as solvent in the lattice, implying the unlikelihood of the existence of an independent 1 : 2 : 1 AgX : py : PPh3 molecular series. In addition, the iodide has been isolated as a different C2/m (?) disordered polymorph.

The mononuclear adducts chloro - and bromo-pyridinebis (triphenylphosphine)silver have been synthesized and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The two complexes are isomorphous, monoclinic, space group P21 or P21/m, a ≈ 9.8, b ≈ 20.0, c ≈ 9.1 � , β ≈ 97.5�, Z 2; in space group P21/m, they were refined to residuals of 0.038, 0.036 for 2392, 2157 'observed' reflections respectively. No comparable iodide adduct has been isolated. In both structures the silver atom is four-coordinate; Ag-Cl,Br are 2.511(2), 2.629(1) �; Ag-P, 2.472(1), 2.476(1) �, and Ag-N, 2.585(5), 2.570(5) � respectively, the Ag-N distance being longer than Ag-P, indicating very weak coordination of the pyridine.

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.

Mixed base pyridine (py)/triphenylphosphine adducts of the copper(1) halides, CuX, have been synthesized for 1 : 1 : 1 stoichiometry for X = chloride and iodide; single-crystal X-ray structure determinations of these show them to be isomorphous and isostructural with that of the bromide recorded elsewhere, being �,�′- dihalo-bridged dimers , [(PPh3)( py )CuX2Cu( py )(PPh3)], monoclinic, C2/c, a ≈ 26.2, b ≈ 14.3, c ≈ 11 .2 � , β ≈ 95, Z = 4 dimers. The bromide has been isolated as a new monoclinic C 2/m polymorph, a 11 .279(8), b 14.268(6), c 13.858(4) �, β 109.33(6)�, Z=4 dimers, and details of its structure are also recorded. The structures of their pyridine-4-carbonitrile (pycn) analogues have also been determined and found to be also binuclear, with no cyano-copper interactions; these also are an isomorphous, isostructural series, monoclinic P21/n, a ≈ 15.4, b ≈ 8.1, c ≈ 17.9 � , β ≈ 101 �, Z = 2 dimers. In each series of dimers, one half of the dimer is crystallographically independent, the generators of the other half being twofold rotor (C2/c phase), mirror (C2/m phase) and inversion centre (P21/n phase) respectively.

The lead atom is seven-coordinate [Pb-N 2.49(1)-2.60(1) (phen), 2.89(1) (NCS); Pb-O 2.75(1), 2.89(1) �] with a large vacancy in the coordination sphere, possibly indicative of a stereochemically active lone pair.

The syntheses and room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structural characterization of 1 : 3 adducts formed between silver(I) (pseudo-) halides, AgX, and triphenylstibine, SbPh3, are described for X = Cl, I, SCN, NCS, CN, NO3 (1)-(6). The chloride, as its methanol solvate (1a), is isomorphous with the arsine analogue: triclinic, P-1, a 13·373(4), b 14·48(6), c 14·702(3) Å, α 83·49(3), β 87·76(2), γ 76·45(3)°; Z = 2, conventional R on F being 0·046 for No 5514 independent ‘observed’ reflections (I > 3σ(I )). A new form (1b) of the chloride has also been authenticated: monoclinic, P 21/c, a 12·832(2), b 54·24(1), c 18·519(8) Å, β 129·68(3)°; Z = 8 (R 0·065 for No 5672). No bromide has been obtained; the iodide (2) is described as monoclinic, P 21/n, a 19·611(4), b 14·473(6), c 17·74(1) Å, β 98·28(3)°; Z = 4 (R 0·036 for No 6769). The thiocyanate crystallizes from acetonitrile or pyridine as an S-bonded form (3) isomorphous with the arsine analogue: monoclinic, P 21/n, a 19·143(7), b 14·288(5), c 18·694(6) Å, β 98·81(2)°; Z = 4 (R 0·037 for No 4482). From 2-methylpyridine, remarkably, a solvate is obtained in which the thiocyanate is N-bonded (4): triclinic, P-1, a 27·261(5), b 14·767(3), c 13·319(1) Å, α 91·53(1), β 101·58(1), γ 92·29(2)°; Z = 4 (R 0·045 for No 6900). The cyanide is also monoclinic, P 21/n, a 19·442(7), b 14·267(3), c 17·741(6) Å, β 97·63(3)°, z = 4; R 0·057 for No 2487. The unsolvated 1 : 3 nitrate complex (6a) is monoclinic, P 21/n, a 19·602(5), b 14·455(1), c 17·727(2) Å, β 97·19(2)°, Z = 4; R was 0·034 for No 6522. The complex is isomorphous with the arsenic and phosphorus analogues, being mononuclear [(Ph3Sb)3Ag(O2NO)]. The ethanol solvate (6b) is triclinic, P-1, a 13·352(5), b 14·548(9), c 14·701(4) Å, α 81·64(4), β 84·45(3), γ 75·32(4)°, Z = 2; R was 0·058 for No 4702. Ag-Sb range between 2·6980(8) and 2·843(3) Å in the precise determinations; Ag-X are 2·481(4) and 2·52(1) Å (the two chlorides), 2·757(1) (I), 2·533(3) (SCN), 2·21(1) (NCS), 2· 09(3) (CN), 2·377(7) Å (unidentate ONO2)

Reaction of 2,6-bis[l-phenyl-1-(pyridin-2-yl)ethyl]pyridine, L, with copper(1) chloride, bromide, and iodide in acetonitrile solution has been shown to yield salts, structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods as [( MeCN ) CuL ]+ [ ClCuCl ]-, (1), [( MeCN ) CuL ]+2 [XCuX2CuX]2-, X = Br (2), I (3) (both isomorphous ), all as yellow needles, and a form of (3), orange blocks, as the hemiacetonitrile solvate, (4), [( MeCN ) CuL ]+2 [IcuI2Cul]2-. MeCN . The same cation is common to all four species, containing four-coordinate copper(r), with L as meso -tridentate ligand; in (4), the most precisely defined example, Cu-N( MeCN ) is 1.919(5) �, the shortest copper(1) acetonitrile distance known, while Cu-N(L) are 2.065(5)-2.073(5) �. The reason for non-formation of species of the type [ LCuX ] appears to lie in the tridentate ligand conformation which permits coordination of acetonitrile but not larger halide species.

The syntheses and room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structural characterization of binuclear 1 : 2 adducts formed between silver(I) (pseudo-)halides, AgX, and triphenylarsine, AsPh3, for X = Cl, Br, I, SCN (1)–(4), are described. The chloride (1), obtained from 2-methylpyridine, is triclinic, P-1, a 10·410(2), b 12·716(2), c 14·196(6) Å, α 113·38(2), β 109·41(2), γ 75·08(1)°, Z = 1 (dimer); conventional R on F was 0·037 for No 3979 independent ‘observed’ (I > 3σ(I)) reflections. The bromide (2a), obtained from 2,6-dimethylpyridine, and iodide (3), obtained from a mixture of AgI/saturated KI in MeOH solutions, are isomorphous, monoclinic, P 21/c a≈ 24·2, b ≈ 13·9, c ≈ 20·2 Å, β ≈ 109·5°, Z = 4 dimers; R was 0·046 and 0·044 for No 5670 and 6039 respectively. The thiocyanate (4) has a similar cell, a 24·12(1), b 12·558(8), c 23·244(4) Å, β 110·11(3)°, Z = 4 dimers, R being 0·044 for No 7956; one of the thiocyanate ligands (which bridge in Ag-SCN-Ag mode) is disordered. A second polymorph of the bromide (2b) (from a mixture of AgBr/saturated KBr in H2O) is also monoclinic, P 21/c, a 14·121(8), b 25·577(3), c 21·968(2) Å, β 125·54(3)°, Z = 4 dimers (R was 0·047 for No 5715). Ag–As range between 2·568(1) and 2·633(1) Å throughout the series; in the isomorphous bromide and iodide, values increase slightly: 2·578(1)–2·611(1), cf. 2·601(2)-2·633(1) Å respectively. Ag–X are 2·568(2)-2·670(2) (Cl); 2·688(2)–2·715(2) (Br); 2·828(2)–2·856(1) Å (I); Ag-S, N for the ordered SCN group are 2·646(3), 2·255(6) Å. A redetermination of improved precision (R 0·035, No 6030) is reported for the triphenylphosphine/thiocyanate analogue. The far-infrared spectra of [(Ph3As)2Ag(µ-X)2Ag (AsPh3)2] show v(AgX) bands at 185, 145 (X = Cl), 145, 130, 106 (X = Br) and 121 cm-1 (X = I). The splittings and band widths reflect a decrease in the degree of distortion of the Ag(µ-X)2Ag units from a symmetrically bridged structure from X = Cl to I.
