Syntheses and room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structure determinations are recorded for 2: 1 adducts of the N,N′-bidentate aromatic base 2,2′-bipyridine (' bpy ') with lead(II) nitrate and perchlorate. [( bpy )2Pb(NO3)2]2 is triclinic, Pī , a 14.609(6), b 9.400(4), c 8.396(4) Ǻ, α 71.10(3), β 83.53(3), γ 81.72(3)°, Z = 1 dimer; R was 0.037 for No = 3001 independent, 'observed' (I > 3σ(I)) reflections. [( bpy )2Pb(ClO4)2] is monoclinic, P21/c, a 9.8806(6), b 12.198(6), c 19.924(2) Ǻ, β 106.80(1)°, Z = 4, R 0.040 for No 4456. Unlike the two 1,10-phenanthroline (' phen ') systems which are mononuclear with eight-coordinate PbN4O4 environments incorporating a pair of O,O′;- bidentate anions, the bpy systems are centrosymmetric dimers; in each case the coordination environment incorporates a pair of N,N′- bidentate aromatic bases and an O,O′- bidentate anion, but the other anion is not only O,O′- bidentate, but also bridges by a third oxygen atom to the other lead atom so that it is nine-coordinate PbN4O5. Syntheses and room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structure determinations are also recorded for a pair of 2:1 adducts of 2,2?-bipyridine with lead(II) salts of mixed anion stoichiometry , viz. ( bpy )2PbX(ClO4), X = acetate ('ac'), chloride. [( bpy )2Pb(ac)(ClO4)] is triclinic, Pī , a 15.910(6), b 9.067(5), c 8.588(3) Ǻ, α 102.91(4), β 93.64(3), γ 103.41(4)°, Z = 2, R 0.039 for No 5283. [( bpy )2PbCl(ClO4)2 is monoclinic, P 21/c, a 12.923(2), b 8.759(2), c 19.650(2) Ǻ, β 94.776(9)°, Z = 2 dimers (R 0.037 for No 4433). Like the 1:2 oxoanion/phen adducts, the acetate is a discrete molecular species with an eight-coordinate PbN4O4 lead environment, the oxygen array comprising a pair of O,O′- bidentate perchlorate and acetate ligands. The chloride adduct, however, is like the 1:2 oxoanion/bpy adducts, being centrosymmetric binuclear, a pair of μ-chloride ions linking the two lead atoms which have seven-coordinate PbN4(μ- Cl )2O lead environments, the perchlorate species being O-unidentate.

Syntheses and room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structure determinations are recorded for 2:1 adducts of 2-aminomethylpyridine ('amp') with lead(II) nitrate and thiocyanate . [(amp)2Pb(NO3)2]2 is triclinic, Pī, a 11.616(4), b 11.145(6), c 7.341(3) Ǻ, α 83.87(4), β 89.17(3), γ 64.12(3)°, Z = 1 dimer ; R was 0.043 for No 3529 independent 'observed' (I > 3σ(I)) reflections. [(amp)2Pb(SCN)2]2 is also triclinic, Pī , a 12.121(9), b 9.301(14), c 8.615(8) Ǻ, α 70.11(10), β 84.00(7), γ 79.38(10)°, Z = 1 dimer (R 0.033 for No 3467). Both complexes are centrosymmetric dimers ; the coordination environment is made up in each case of a pair of N,N°-bidentate bases, one terminally bound anion (O,O°-chelating nitrate or S-bonded thiocyanate ) and bridging anions. In the case of the thiocyanates, these bridge end-on, so that the lead(II) environment is seven-coordinate PbN5S2; in the nitrate, the anion chelates through two of its oxygen atoms, bridging via the third, so that the lead(II) environment is nine-coordinate PbN4O5. A 'problem structure', [(amp)2Pb(ClO4)2], monoclinic, C2/c (?), a 14.528(3), b 8.203(3), c 15.495(6) Ǻ, β 91.14(3)°, Z = 4 f.u ., R 0.044 for No 1775, is also recorded, the crystal seemingly a disordered aggregate of [(N, N′-amp)2Pb(OClO3)2] moieties.

The crystal structures of [Cu(Pme3)4]X (X = Cl , Br, I) and of [M(PPh3)4] [PF6] (M = Cu, Ag) have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods at 295 K. The former compounds contain nearly tetrahedral [Cu(PMe3)4]+ ions on sites of m symmetry with mean Cu-P bond lengths of 2.270, 2.271 and 2.278 Ǻ for X = Cl , Br and I respectively. The latter compounds contain [M(PPh3)4]+ ions on sites of 3 symmetry. In the M =Ag complex the coordination environment is close to tetrahedral, but in the M =Cu complex the length of the axial Cu-P bond [2.465(2)Ǻ] is significantly shorter than that of the off-axis bonds [2.566(2)Ǻ]. Possible reasons for this are discussed.

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.

Syntheses and room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structure determinations are recorded for 1:1 adducts of 2,2':6',2"-terpyridine (' tpy ') with the lead(II) oxoanion salts perchlorate, nitrate and nitrite, ( tpy ) Pb ( oxoanion )2. All structures are monoclinic, C2/c, Z = 4, with approximate ranges a from 9 to 11 Ǻ, b from 16 to 20 Ǻ, c from 9.8 to 13.8 Ǻ, β from 113 to 130° and V from 1650 to 1850 Ǻ3. In all cases the lead(II) atoms are disposed on crystallographic 2 axes which also pass through the axis of the central tpy ring; a pair of symmetry related oxoanions link successive lead atoms in a one-dimensional polymeric chain parallel to the ac cell diagonal, one pair of oxygen atoms functioning as an O,O'-bidentate with another oxygen (replaced by the nitrogen in the nitrite) bridging to the adjacent lead atom; the third anionic oxygen atom in the nitrate is replaced by a water molecule in the nitrite, which thus becomes a monohydrate. Residuals were 0.030, 0.034 and 0.040 for 2122, 1564 and 2059 independent 'observed' (I > 3σ(I)) reflections respectively. Also recorded are the syntheses and room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structure determinations for 1:1 aducts of 2,2':6',2"-terpyridine with lead(II) chloride, bromide and iodide, the chloride and bromide being hydrated. ( tpy )PbCl2.H2O is monoclinic, P 21/c, a 8.938(1), b 15,210(7), c 13.414(3) Ǻ, β 115.17(1)°, Z = 4 f.u .; R was 0.036 for No = 3346 independent, 'observed' reflections. The complex is centrosymmetric, binuclear [( tpy ) (H2O)( Cl ) Pb (μ- Cl )2Pb( Cl )(OH2)( tpy )], with the two lead atoms linked by bridging chlorine atoms; the lead atoms are seven-coordinate N3,O,ClPb(μ- Cl )2. The bromide ( tpy )PbBr2.2/3H2O, triclinic, Pī, a 12.360(6), b 12.452(4), c 18.372(6) Ǻ, α 108.31(3), β 109.44(3), γ 90.56(3)°, Z = 6 f.u ., R being 0.046 for No 7282, is in fact trinuclear [Pb3Br6( tpy )6].2H2O, a novel and elegant oligomer with quasi-2 symmetry in which a central lead atom (on the quasi-2 axis) is seven-coordinated [( tpy ) Pb (μ-Br)4] with the associated bromides bridging to a pair of peripheral lead atoms, also seven coordinated, [( tpy )(Br) Pb (μ-Br)3]. Unsolvated ( tpy )PbI2, triclinic, Pī , a 10.834(3), b 9.023(3), c 8.906(2) Ǻ, α 80.34(2), β 89.40(2), γ 79.78(2)°, Z = 2 f.u ., R 0.031 for No 2347 is, like the chloride, centrosymmetric binuclear, [( tpy )(I) Pb (μ-I)2Pb(I)( tpy )], but with the lead(II) now six-coordinate N3(I) Pb (μ-I)2. In both chloride and iodide, the tpy plane is approximately normal to the Pb ... Pb line with the water molecule of the chloride approximately trans to the central tpy nitrogen; in the iodide that site is occupied by the terminal halide.

Crystallization of 1 : 2 mixtures of the copper(I) halides CuX, X = Cl, Br, I, with triphenylstibine from acetonitrile yields adducts of 1 : 2 CuX/SbPh3 stoichiometry, confirmed by single-crystal X-ray structure determinations. The three complexes are isomorphous, monoclinic, P 21/c, a ≈ 24·3, b ≈ 14·2, c ≈ 20 Å, β 110°, Z = 4 dimers; conventional R on F were 0·047, 0·044 and 0·045 for No 11247, 4673 and 10418 independent ‘observe’ (I > 3σ(I)) reflections respectively. The complexes, also isomorphous with some related species, e.g. 1 : 2 AgBr,I/AsPh3, are dimers: [(Ph3Sb)2Cu(µ-X)2Cu(SbPh3)2]. The chloride is also recorded as a chloroform disolvate, isomorphous with its arsine analogue, being monoclinic, C 2/c, a 21·486(9), b 17· 925(9), c 19·972(7) Å, β 91·31(3)°, Z = 4 dimers, R 0·057 for No 3756. The far-infrared spectra of [(Ph3Sb)2Cu(µ-X)2Cu(SbPh3)2] (X = Br, I) showed no clear v(CuX) bands, in contrast to the situation reported previously for the corresponding Ph3As compounds. A possible v(CuCl) band is observed in the X = Cl complex at 219 cm-1 , but this occurs in a region where there is also significant absorption in the other two compounds. The absence of strong v(CuX) bands in these complexes is consistent with the situation observed previously for the 3 : 1 compounds [(Ph3Sb)3CuX].

Syntheses and room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structure determinations are recorded for 1:1 adducts of 2,4,6-tris(2-pyridyl) 1,3,5-triazine (' trz ') with lead(II) chloride, bromide, iodide and thiocyanate, the chloride and bromide being methanol monosolvates. [( trz )PbCl2](∞|∞). MeOH is monoclinic, P 2/c, a 9.178(2), b 14.833(3), c 7.347(8) Ǻ, β 93.89(2)°, Z = 2 f.u .; R was 0.042 for No = 1451 'observed' (I > 3σ(I)) reflections; the bromide is related, having a derivative triclinic cell, Pī, a 9.259(3), b 15.153(6), c 7.428(2) Ǻ, α 90.28(3), β 94.62(2), γ 91.15(3)°, Z = 2 f.u .; R was 0.047 for No 2729. [( trz )PbI2](∞|∞), also solvated, is triclinic, Pī , a 15.266(9), b 8.9448(8), c 8.148(11) Ǻ, α 80.60(6), β 77.05(7), γ 83.45(3)°, Z = 2; R was 0.032 for No 3222. In all three compounds an infinite PbX2PbX2Pb polymer is found with the plane of the tridentate trz lying quasi normal to the polymer axis. Pb -N distances lie between 2.63(1) and 2.803(8) Ǻ; Pb-Cl are 2.848(3) and 3.074(3), Pb -Br 2.963(2)-3.257(2) and Pb-I 3.192(3)-3.466(2) Ǻ. The thiocyanate, monoclinic, C 2/c, a 16.974(6), b 6.410(2), c 39.49(2) Ǻ, β 96.33(4)°, Z = 8, R 0.13 for No 2465, is a column of dimeric units stacked up b, successive lead atoms being bridged by thiocyanate sulfur atoms packed in between them, and quasi-parallel to a, and by thiocyanates parallel to b which link pairs of lead atoms in each dimer with the same b coordinate by pairs of bridging nitrogens and bridging sulfurs from the adjacent pair.

Room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structure determinations carried out on ‘maximally’ hydrated rare earth(III) trifluoroacetates, Ln(tfa)3.x H2O, crystallized at room temperature, show the Ln = La, Ce adducts to be isomorphous and monoclinic, P 21/c, a ≈ 11·9, b ≈ 12·8, c ≈ 9·8 8 Å, β ≈ 103·7°, Z = 4; they are trihydrates. The Ln = Pr, Lu (and, implicitly, intermediate Ln) adducts are also monoclinic, P 21/c, Z = 4, and trihydrates, but of a different polymorph, with a ≈ 9·2, b 18·8, c ≈ 9·8 Å, β ≈ 114°. For the four determinations, conventional R values on |F| were 0·038, 0·032, 0·036, and 0·034 for No 2952, 4821, 4544, and 4092 independent ‘observed’ (I > 3σ(I)) diffractometer reflections respectively. The Ln = La, Ce adducts are two-dimensional polymers, the sheets parallel to the bc plane; the other systems are binuclear, the two metal atoms being linked by four bridging carboxylate O-tfa-O′ ligands. In both structural types, the metal atoms are eight-coordinate, but differ in the number of water molecules (2 cf. 3) in the O8 array. Extension of previous studies by single-crystal X-ray methods on the structural characterization of trivalent rare earth trichloroacetates, ‘maximally’ hydrated at local ambience, Ln(tca)3.x H2O, suggests the following arrays to be prevalent. The Ln = La adduct is a pentahydrate, monoclinic, P21/c, a 5·636(7), b 22·454(4), c 16·58(1) Å, β 90·52(8)°, Z = 4 f.u., R 0·035 for No 4154. The compound is a linear polymer along a, successive nine-coordinate La (separated by a) being linked by three O-tca-O′ bridging ligands at the opposite faces of a tricapped trigonal prismatic array, the equatorial sites being filled by water molecules. The Ln = Ce adduct is a trihydrate, monoclinic, P 21/c, a 10·071(2), b 22·973(2), c 20·222(5) Å, b 119·48(2)°, Z= 8 f.u., R 0·050 for No 5019. The array is also linear polymeric, but with successive Ce being linked alternately now by sets of two and then four O-tca-O′ bridging carboxylates along b, the Ln = Ce coordination number being diminished (relative to La) to eight with the coordination of two water molecules to each metal. Ln = Pr, Lu (and, presumptively, intermediate Ln) are dihydrates, triclinic, P 1, a ≈ 11·70, b ≈ 12·8, c ≈ 15·3 Å, α ≈ 71, β ≈ 77·85, γ ≈ 65·5°, Z = 4 f.u., R 0·056, 0·059 for No 5650, 5398. The array is a linear polymer, similar to that of the Ln = Ce adduct but alongside the bridging acetate pair one of the water molecules now bridges, resulting in a stepped Ln 1 array (along c) rather than a quasi-straight one as is found for the Ln = Ce (and La) adduct. Structure determinations are also recorded for rare earth(III) trichloroacetate ethanol trisolvates, Ln(tca)3.3EtOH. Adducts of Ln = La, Yb (and, implicitly, intermediate Ln) are isomorphous, triclinic, P 1, a ≈ 12, b ≈ 11·8, c ≈ 11·4 Å, α ≈ 114, β ≈ 100, γ ≈ 104°, Z = 2 f.u., R 0·056, 0·050 for No 3843, 4171. The complexes are centrosymmetric dimers [(EtOH)3(tca-O)Ln(O-tca-O′)4Ln(O-tca)(HOEt)3], the two metal atoms being linked by four O-tca-O′ bridging carboxylate groups; the metal atoms are eight-coordinate, the other four sites being occupied by four oxygen atoms from unidentate ethanol and carboxylate moieties. Bis(bis(2-pyridyl)aminium) bis(diaquatetrakis(trichloroacetato)lanthanate(III)), 2(dpaH+) [(H2O)2-(tca-O)(tca-O,O′)2La(O-tca-O′)2La(O,O′-tca)2(O-tca)(OH2)2]2-, is triclinic, P 1, a, 13·901(2), b 13·764(3), c 10·073(2) Å, α 104·04(2), β 108·93(2), γ 101·50(2)°, Z = 1 binuclear f.u., R 0·045 for No 4999. The anion is binuclear, the two nine-coordinate lanthanum atoms being linked by a pair of bridging O-carboxylate-O′ groups. The other seven sites of the LaO9 array are occupied by a pair of O,O′ -chelating and one O-unidentate carboxylate groups and a pair of water molecules.

Syntheses and room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structure determinations are recorded for 1 : 1 adducts of (1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane) ('cyclam') with lead(II) perchlorate and (7R*,14R*)-5,5,7,12,12,14-hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane ('tet -b') with lead(II) nitrate, perchlorate and acetate ('ac'). [( cyclam ) Pb (ClO4)2] is orthorhombic, Pb21a, a 16.024(7), b 13.595(4), c 8.6810(5) Ǻ, Z = 4 f.u .; R was 0.055 for No 1318 independent 'observed' (I > 3σ(I)) reflections. [( tet -b) Pb (NO3)2]2 is monoclinic. P 21/a, a 16.15(2), b 14.550(6), c 19.775(2) Ǻ, β 90.86(5)°, Z = 4 dimers ; R 0.074 for No 3184. [( tet -b) Pb (ClO4)2]2.H2O is monoclinic, P 21/c, a 13.663(9), b 9.031(3). c 20.61(1) Ǻ, β 100.40(3)°, Z = 4 f.u .; R 0.044 for No 2857. [( tet -b) Pb (ac)2].2H2O is triclinic, Pī , a 13.138(5), b 10.924(4), c 10.518(3) Ǻ, α 115.48(3), β 91.95(2), γ 102.38(2)°, Z = 2 f.u .; R 0.031 for No 6485. In all complexes, the macrocycle-N4 ligand occupies one 'side' of the coordination sphere of the lead atom, with anionic oxygens opposed; the cyclam/perchlorate complex is, like the nitrate, mononuclear with seven-coordinate (N4)PbO3 with a bidentate O,O'- and a unidentate O- perchlorate . In the tet-b acetate, the anionic oxygen atoms are surprisingly sparse, comprising simply a bidentate acetate in a mononuclear (N4)PbO2 environment with the other (lattice) acetate bonded to the macrocycle axial NH hydrogens . The nitrate and perchlorate complexes involve bridging anions: in the nitrate. a central centrosymmetric PbO2Pb array is found, the lead atoms being bridged by one oxygen of a bidentate nitrate, the other nitrate being unidentate and the coordination sphere (N4)PbO4: in the perchlorate , again a centrosymmetric dimer is found, the lead atoms being linked by O,O'-bridging perchlorates (again with (N4)PbO2 coordination environments), the complex being essentially [( tet -b) Pb (OClO2O)2Pb( tet -b)](ClO4)2H2O. The structure of [cyclamH4]4+ (NO3-)4.2H2O is also recorded [triclinic, Pī , a 8.626(2), b 8.549(1), c 8.400(2) Ǻ, α 80.60(2), β 76.62(2), γ 65.06(1)°, Z = 1; R 0.044 for No 1539], together with that of the diprotonated hexamethyl derivative [tet-bH2]2+(ClO4-)2.CH3OH [monoclinic, P21/c, a 11.296(3), b 8.834(8), c 26.22(1) Ǻ, β 99.05(3)°, Z = 4 f.u .; R 0.063 for No 2583].

The syntheses of adducts, [(Ph3Sb)3CuX], X = Br, I, NO3, obtained by crystallization of 1 : 3 CuX/SbPh3 mixtures from appropriate solvents are described, together with their room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structure determinations. The bromide, obtained as a chloroform monosolvate from that solvent, is triclinic, P-1, a 13·861(4), b 14·306(4), c 14·347(4) Å, α 84·40(2), β 86·93(2), γ 75·56(2)°, Z = 2 f.u., conventional R on F being 0·053 for No = 4136 independent ‘observed’ (I > 3σ(I)) reflections; this solvate is isomorphous with its previously recorded chloride counterpart. The iodide is triclinic, P-1, a 14·55(1), b 14·385(2), c 23·626(6) Å, α 91·78(1), β 90·77(4), γ 92·54(5)°; Z= 4, R 0·050 for No 6917, and isomorphous with its phosphorus counterpart. The nitrate, although a methanol sesquisolvate, is also isomorphous with the chloride and bromide, a 13·369(9), b 14·398(3), c 14· 504(12) Å, α 82·29(5), β 84·39(6), γ 75·11(4)°, R 0·052 for No 5672. Cu-X are (2·235(5) (Cl)), 2·366(3) (Br), 2· 556(2) ( 2 ) (I), 1·98(1) Å (ONO2), appreciably shorter than in their previously recorded EPh3, E = P, As counterparts. The far-infrared spectra of [(Ph3Sb)3CuX] showed no clear v(CuX) bands, in contrast to the situation reported previously for the corresponding Ph3P and Ph3As compounds. It is likely that v(CuCl) is masked by a strong band at 270 cm-1 due to the Ph3Sb ligand. However, the region below 250 cm-1 in which the v(CuX) bands are expected for the X = Br, I complexes contains no strong ligand bands. Possible reasons for the absence of v(CuX) bands in these complexes are considered.

Syntheses and room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structure determinations are recorded for 1 : 1 adducts of lead(II) nitrate with the linear multidentate polyamines ethane-1,2-diamine ('en'(= '2')), H2N(CH2)2NH(CH2)2NH2(' dien ' = '22') and H2N(CH2)xNH(CH2)yNH(CH2)zNH2 ( xyztet = '222tet' (= ' trien '), '232tet', '323tet'). Crystal/refinement data are as follows: [(en) Pb (NO3)2](∞|∞) is monoclinic, P 21/c, a 5.388(2), b 12.440(5), c 13.123(3) Ǻ, β 102.33(3)°, Z = 4 f.u .; R 0.037 for No 2698 'observed' (I > 3σ(I)) reflections. [( dien ) Pb (NO3)2](∞|∞) is orthorhombic, Ccma , a 9.800(2), b 10.840(2), c 20.521(5), Z = 8; R 0.045, No 991. [( trien ) Pb (NO3)2](∞|∞) is orthorhombic, P 212121, a 14.815(3), b 10.975(3), c 8.410(2) Ǻ, Z = 4; R 0.050, No 1360; [(232tet) Pb (NO3)2](∞|∞) is isomorphous, a 14.524(6), b 11.221(1), c 8.860(2) Ǻ, R 0.036, No 2371. [(323tet) Pb (NO3)2](∞|∞) is monoclinic, P21/c, a 8.195(4), b 14.407(7), c 13.312(4) Ǻ, β 91.05(3)°, Z = 4; R 0.049, No 1644. In general, the degree of complexity of the adduct diminishes as the ligand size increases: whereas the en adduct is a compact one-dimensional two stranded polymer with nearly all nitrate oxygens involved in tight bridging interactions, the extent of bridging diminishes in the adducts of the larger amines, until, for the 323tet species, a monomer is obtained involving a lead coordination sphere containing the ligand and a pair of bidentate nitrate groups. The 1 : 2 adduct with en is also recorded, and is a dimer with quasi-i internal symmetry. [(en)2Pb(NO3)2]2 is monoclinic, P21, a 6.661(2), b 14.226(8), C 13.618(4)Ǻ, β 96.51(2)°; R 0.072, No 1713.
