The crystal structure of Co2SiO4 (olivine structure type) was solved by Patterson and Fourier synthesis and refined by the full matrix least squares method. A final value of the R factor of 0.057 was obtained from 911 independent reflection intensities. The structure symmetry corresponds to space group Pnma with lattice parameters a = 1032.8(3), b = 601.9(2) and c = 478.2(1) pm. The unit cell contains four formula units. The Si-O distance in isolated SiO4 tetrahedra varies from 162.1(3) to 165.9(3) pm. Both cobalt atoms are octahedrally surrounded by oxygen atoms with Co-O distances of 208.0(3)-223.1(2) pm.

The crystal structures of the title compounds have been determined from X-ray data collected on a four-circle diffractometer and refined by the full-matrix least-squares method. The former compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, space group Pbcn, with a = 14.346(8), b = 7.239(1), c = 17.276(2) Å, and has been refined to a conventional R factor of 0.043 for 890 observed reflections. Corresponding results for the latter compound are monoclinic, P21/n, a = 12.222(4), b = 7.482(2), c = 14.170(8) Å, β = 94.06(4)°, R = 0.060 for 2128 observed data. The triazine rings of both compounds exhibit short N(1)—N(2) bonds and tetrahedral geometry at C(4); however, the ring is puckered in the first compound but flat in the second. Molecules in both crystals are linked by [Formula: see text] hydrogen bonds.

α-VPO5 crystallizes in the tetragonal space group P4/n with a = 6.014(7) and c = 4.434(2) Å. The structure, isotypic with that of α-VSO5, was refined by full-matrix least-squares method to an R value of 0.089 using 239 independent reflections. The vanadium ion lies on a crystallographic four-fold axis, as does one of the oxygen atoms, and the P on a site of [Formula: see text] symmetry. A second oxygen atom, as a result of disorder, occurs in two positions which are mirror reflected with respect to the ac plane. The structure consists of highly distorted VO6 groups with bond lengths along the c axis of 1.580(11) and 2.853(11) Å while the remaining four V—O bond lengths are all 1.858(8) Å. The P—O bond lengths in the PO4. tetrahedron are 1.541(8) Å with the PO4 groups bridging across four chains of VO6 groups.

The reaction of K2PtCl4 with CH3—CH=CH—CH2—OH yields the complex cis-[PtCl2((CH2=CH—CH(CH3))2O)]. The crystals are triclinic, space group [Formula: see text], a = 9.420(2) Å, b = 8.359(4) Å, c = 7.837(4) Å, α = 91.10(4)°, β = 62.13(4)°, γ = 80.80(5)°, and Z = 2. The structure, solved by standard methods, has been refined anisotropically by full matrix least-squares methods to a R factor of 0.052 by use of 2441 independent observed reflections. The complex is a monomer, where both double bonds of the diolefin ether are coordinated to the platinum atom as in Zeise's salt. The usual square planar coordination of platinum(II) is completed by two chlorine atoms. The (=CH2) groups of both double bonds are found on the same side of the coordination plane. Various possible conformations of the coordinated ligand in the complex are discussed.

The synthesis and coordinating properties of the tridentate tris-chelating ligand, methyl tris(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)gallate, MeGa(N2C5H7)3−, are described. Carbonyl and nitrosyl carbonyl compounds of manganese, molybdenum, and tungsten incorporating this ligand are detailed. The ready conversion of the above ligand to the less sterically demanding tris-chelating 'hydroxy' ligand [MeGa(N2C5H7)2(OH)]− occurs in attempted syntheses of the 'η3-allyl' complexes, [MeGa(N2C5H7)3]M(CO)2'η3-allyl', (where M = Mo or W, 'η3-allyl' = η3-C3H5, η3-C4H7). The tridentate chelating nature of this 'hydroxy' ligand is conclusively demonstrated in the crystal structure determination of the complex, [MeGa(N2C5H7)2(OH)]-Mo(CO)2(η3-C4H7). Crystals of this complex are monoclinic, a = 14.020(4), b = 10.110(1), c = 15.493(7) Å, β = 111.58(3)°, Z = 4, space group P21/n. The structure was solved by Patterson and Fourier syntheses and was refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to a final R of 0.40 and Rw of 0.043 for 3374 reflections with I ≥ 3.5σ(I).

AbstractCrystal structure of the ζ2' martensite in a Au-49.5at%Cd ally has been analyzed by the single crystal x-ray diffraction method. The crystal lattice was trigonal and the lattice constants were a:0.8095(3) and c=o.57940(6) nm. There were 18 atoms in a unit cell. The space group was P3, which was different from that previously determined by Vatanayon and Hehemann. The structure was refined by the full matrix least squares method to a final R factor of 7.8% and a weighted R factor of 4.1%.

KAlP2O7 crystallizes as monoclinic crystals with a = 7.308(8), b = 9.662(6), c = 8.025(4) Å, β = 106.69(7)°, z = 4 and space group P21/c. The structure was refined from 1394 observed reflections by full-matrix least-squares method to a final R value of 0.032. The P2O74− anion consists of a pair of corner-sharing PO4 groups in a nearly staggered configuration. The mean bridging and terminal P—O bond lengths are 1.607 and 1.509 Å, respectively, and the P—O—P angle is 123.2°. The anions lie in planes parallel to (001). The Al ions are bonded to six oxygen atoms contributed by anions in three layers of P2O7 groups. The average Al—O bond length is 1.889 Å. The potassium ion is coordinated to ten oxygen atoms lying within a spherical shell with inner and outer radii of 2.739 and 3.185 Å.

The complex [ Ru (NH3)3( acac )(OH2)]2+ was obtained by the reaction of [ Ru (NH3)3(H2O)3][CF3SO3]3 with pentane-2,4-dione. The crystals are orthorhombic, space group P212121, with a 7.805(4), b 12.997(4), c 17.479(13) Ǻ, U 1773.1 Ǻ3 with Z 4. The structure was refined by a full-matrix least-squares method on 827 reflections [for which I ≥ 2.5σ(I)] to final R 0.042 and Rw 0.043. The structure analysis reveals an almost perfect octahedral coordination around the ruthenium atom with the three ammine ligands attached in a facial arrangement. Spectroscopic and electrochemical studies are consistent with the same species being present in dilute solution.

SummaryThree-dimensional counter-diffractometer data and a full-matrix least-squares method have been used to refine the crystal structure of a sub-silicic hastingsite in the space group C2/m. The chemical composition of the amphibole is with ceil parameters a = 9·8659(4), b = 18·0139(8), c = 5·3545(2)Å, and β = 105·082(1)°. Unit weights were used throughout the refinement and the final R-factor for 1263 observed non-equivalent reflections was 4.1%. The mean tetrahcdral bond length for aluminous amphiboles varies linearly with the total amount of tetrahedral A1. Curves are derived relating individual mean bond lengths with A1 occupancy. The positional disorder on the A-site of the aluminous amphiboles appears to be partly related to the amount of substitution of A1 into the T(2) tetrahedron.
