Crystals of the pyridine solvate of bis(8-hydroxyquinoline)silver(I), Ag(C9H9NO)C9H6NOHO•C5H5N, are monoclinic, space group P21/a, with cell dimensions a = 10.87 ± 0.01 Å, b = 10.65 ± 0.01 Å, c = 16.70 ± 0.01 Å, β = 92.6 ± 0.2°, Z = 4. Atomic parameters have been determined from a three-dimensional analysis using 2163 independent intensities to which no absorption corrections were applied. Refinement was by observed and calculated differential syntheses using isotropic temperature factors. The final discrepancy index is R = 0.116.The coordination of the silver atom is distorted tetrahedral, with bonds to the phenolic oxygen and ring nitrogen atoms of both 8-hydroxyquinoline molecules. Adjacent bis(8-hydroxyquinoline)silver molecules are linked by a hydrogen bond between two oxygen atoms. The pyridine molecules are held in the lattice by van der Waals' forces.

Crystals of thioformaldehyde trimer, (CH2S)3 are orthorhombic, space group Pmn21 with a = 7.697 Å [Formula: see text], b = 7.067 Å [Formula: see text], c = 5.323 Å [Formula: see text]. There are two molecules in the unit cell with sulfur and carbon atoms in positions (4b) and (2a). The atomic parameters for sulfur and carbon have been determined from a three-dimensional analysis using observed and calculated differential syntheses with isotropic temperature factors. No absorption corrections were applied to the intensity data and no attempt has been made to establish the hydrogen positions. The final discrepancy index is R = 0.093. The molecule has the chair configuration and shows no significant difference between the lengths of any S—C bonds. The mean S—C bond distance is 1.818 Å and the standard deviation of the mean is 0.003 Å. This value is in good agreement with the commonly accepted value of 1.817 ± 0.005 Å for the S—C paraffinic bond.

Copper(I) perchlorate, nitrate, and acetylacetonate complexes of the types Cu(triphos)ClO4 (triphos = CH3C(CH2PPh2)3), Cu(Cy3P)2ClO4 (Cy3P = P(C6H11)3), Cu(triphos)NO3, Cu(Cy3P)2(HFac)(HFac = hexafluoroacetylacetonate), and Cu (Cy3P)2(TtFac) (TtFac = thienyltrifluoroacetylacetonate) have been synthesized by reduction of the corresponding perchlorate, nitrate, and acetylacetonates with tertiary phosphines. Infrared spectra indicate the presence of monodentate perchlorate groups in Cu(triphos)ClO4 and in Cu(Cy3P)2ClO4 and the crystal structure of the latter has been determined by a three-dimensional X-ray analysis using diffractometer data. The crystals are monoclinic, space group C2/c, with cell dimensions a = 18.159(6), b = 9.493(2), c = 22.182(3) Å, and β = 95.41(2)° and four molecules per unit cell. The structure was refined by block-diagonal least squares methods to a final R of 0.051 for 2617 reflections using anisotropic thermal parameters for the nonhydrogen atoms. The structure consists of discrete Cu(Cy3P)2ClO4 molecules with symmetry C2 separated by normal van der Waals distances. The copper atom is three-coordinate and the perchlorate anion is monodentate but disordered over two sites. Principal dimensions include: Cu—P 2.262(1) Å, Cu—O 2.220(7) Å, [Formula: see text][Formula: see text] and 99.8(2)°, and [Formula: see text]

Crystals of the synthetic intermediate, 2-bromo-3-methoxy-5-hydroxy-5,6,7,8,9,10,13,14-octahydro-8-methyl-10,13-N-acetyl aminomethano-phenanthrene, C19H24O3NBr, are monoclinic, space group P21/n, unit cell dimensions a = 10.62(1), b = 14.47(2), c = 23.88(2) Å, β = 99.4(2)°, z = 8 with two molecules in the asymmetric unit. The structure was solved by the heavy atom method and refined by full matrix least squares to R = 0.096 for 2120 observed reflections. The conformation was found to be cis at the junction between rings A and B making further cyclization to obtain an A ring nitrogen bridge not possible.

Abstract The crystal and molecular structure of the monoclinic phase of 1,3-di-tert-butyl-2,2-dimethyl-1,3,2,4λ2 -diazasilastannetidine has been determined from three-dimensional X-ray data collected on a two-circle diffractometer at -120 °C (MoKa radiation, 2623 reflexions, R - 0,050). The crystals are monoclinic, space group C2/c, with cell dimensions a = 10.655(5), b = 25.75(1), c = 17.33(1) Å, β = 106.8(1)° and Z = 12. Four monomeric (crystal site symmetry 2 (C2)) and four dimeric units (crystal site symmetry 1̄ (Ci)) are present in the structure interacting over tin-tin (3.68 Å). Remarkable are the very short Sn-N bond (2.09 Å) in the monomer and the donation bond Sn-N (2.39 Å) in the dimer. The coordination of the tin atoms in the different units is discussed in detail.

Hydrothermal reaction of Zn(NO3)2 · 6H2O and 2-hydroxypyridine-3-carboxylic acid afforded a novel supramolecular complex, [Zn(C6H4NO3)2(H2O)2] (1). The complex has been characterized by macroanalysis, IR spectra, and thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis (TG/DTA). Single crystal X-ray analysis shows that complex 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with the cell dimensions a = 7.534(6), b = 12.289(1), c = 7.534(6) Å, β = 100.51°, V = 685.85(1) Å3, and Z = 2. The six-coordinated Zn atom is in a severely distorted octahedral geometry. The complex molecules are assembled via strong O-H· · ·O and N-H· · ·O hydrogen bonding interactions into a three-dimensional supramolecular framework. Compared with the free ligand, complex 1 exhibits strong fluorescence in the solid state at room temperature.

The manganese(II) complex [Mn(picl)2,2H2O]n of the herbicide picloram has been prepared and the crystal and molecular structure determined from three-dimensional X-ray data collected by counter methods. The crystals of the complex are monoclinic, space group 12/a with two complex units in a cell of dimensions a 23·052(5), b 13·840(2), c 6·441(1) �, β 98·20(1)�. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined by full matrix least squares to unweighted and weighted Rfactors of 0·035 and 0·038 respectively for 887 'observed' reflections. The polymer is best described as having a centrosymmetric two-molecule unit [Mn-O, 2·162(3), 2·246(3) �] with two oxo bridges between manganese centres through two single carboxylate oxygens of the four substituted picolinate ligands. The two molecules are related by a twofold axis. The units form infinite one-dimensional polymer chains in the c direction through oxo bridges involving one oxygen from the other two picolinate ligands [Mn-Mn 3·636(1)�]. The bis(bidentate)picolinate bites are completed by the pyridlne nitrogens [Mn-N, 2·313(4) �] giving a very distorted octahedral MnO4N2 coordination sphere about each manganese [N-Mn-N', 97.0(3)�; O-Mn-O range, 68·9-168.2(3)�; O-Mn-Nrange, 69·9-138·5(3)�]. The lattice waters are involved in hydrogen-bonding interactions which link the polymer in the a crystallographic direction with the uncoordinated carboxylate oxygen ( O···O,2·824, 2·936 �) and the 4-amino groups from the adjacent picolinate ligand (N· ··0, 2·852, 3·030�).

The three-dimensional structure of L-thyronine, the non-iodinated physiologically inactive analog of thyroxine, has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction and compared to the active thyroid hormones. The compound crystallized as the monohydrate of thyronine hydrochloride ethyl ester in the monoclinic space group P21 with cell dimensions a = 10.502, b = 5.165, c = 17.940 Å, β = 109.74°. The structure was solved by Patterson methods to find the chloride ion and iterative Fourier maps to locate the rest of the atoms. Refinement was by anisotropic full-matrix least squares to convergence at R = 0.048.The two phenyl rings adopt a twisted orientation with respect to each other with angles of −37° and −67° between the plane of the inter-ring ether linkage and the planes of the α- and β-rings, respectively. This orientation differs considerably from that found in the iodinated thyronines. The conformation of the alanine side chain is remarkably similar to that of the alanine in the iodinated thyronines.

The three-dimensional structure of 5-methoxyuridine (mo5U) was determined with much higher precision than in a previous study (Hillen etal. J. Carbohydr. Nucleosides Nucleotides, 5, 23 (1978)). The crystals belong to the monoclinic space group P21 and the cell dimensions are a = 8.916(2), b = 14.372(2), c = 4.714(1) Å, β = 97.44(2)°. Intensity data were measured with a diffractometer and the structure was solved by direct methods. Least-squares refinement, which included all hydrogen atoms, converged at R = 0.031. The conformation about the glycosyl bond is anti (χCN = 23.1°), the pucker of the ribose ring is C(3′)endo, and the conformation of the —CH2OH side chain is gauche+. A comparison of the bond lengths N(3)—C(4) and C(4)—O(4) with those in uridine does not support the conclusion of Hillen etal. about a shift to the enol tautomer in mo5U. However, there are other changes in the geometry of the pyrimidine ring due to substitution at C(5). A conformational analysis, based on 1H and 13C nmr data, shows that the preferred conformation in solution is that observed in the solid state.

The crystal and molecular structure of a cobalt(III) ammine complex of 2-amino-4-imino-2-methyl-pentanoic acid, [Co(NH3)3{HN=C(CH3)CH2C(CH3)(NH2)(CO2)}]S2O6, has been determined from three-dimensional X-ray data collected by counter methods. The complex crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c (C52h, No. 14), with a = 7.576(4), b = 18.209(7), c = 14.068(6) Ǻ, β = 125.25(2)�, Z = 4. The structure was solved by conventional Patterson and Fourier methods, and was refined by block-diagonal least-squares methods to weighted and unweighted 12-factors of 0.041 and 0.040 respectively, for the 1479 unique reflections having I/σ(I) ≥ 3.0. All hydrogen atoms have been located and refined. The complex cation is essentially octahedral about the central cobalt atom with three amine groups occupying mutually cis coordination sites; the three remaining sites at the cobalt atom are occupied by the tridentate 2-amino-4-imino-2-methylpentanoic acid ligand. The Co-O distance is 1.914(4) Ǻ, while the Co-N(imine) distance is 1.924(5) Ǻ. The Co-N(NH3) distances range from 1.968(5) to 1.979(5) Ǻ, and are equal within experimental error. Within the tridentate 2- amino-4-imino-2-methylpentanoic acid ligand, the C=N distance is 1.252(7) Ǻ, while at the carboxyl group the ?free? C-O distance [1.233(6) Ǻ] is significantly shorter than the distance from the carbon to the coordinated oxygen atom [1.270(7) Ǻ]. In the S2O6 counter anion, the S-S distance is 2.112(2) Ǻ, and the S-O distances range from 1.434(6) to 1.457(4) Ǻ, averaging 1.439 Ǻ.
