HgCl2 and CdCl2 form 1:1 complexes with 1,4,7,10,13,16-hexaoxacyclooctadecane (18-crown-6). The complexes are isostructural. The metal coordination is hexagonal bipyramidal, with chlorine atoms strongly coordinated in the axial positions and the 18-crown-6 in the equatorial place. The symmetry of the complex is crystallographically required to be [Formula: see text], but is very nearly [Formula: see text]. The Hg—Cl, Hg—O, Cd—Cl, and Cd—O distances are 2.314(1), 2.825(4), 2.3645(5), and 2.752(1) Å, respectively. Crystals of HgCl2•18-crown-6 are rhombohedral, space group [Formula: see text], a = 7.746(2) Å, α = 95.26(3)°, Z = 1 unit of HgCl2C12H24O6, R = 0.026 for 543 independent reflections with θ < 25°, I > 3σ(I).

Abstract Crystals of both complexes were obtained by evaporation of the ethanol solvent. The crystals of [{CuCl(C10N4H24)}2][CdCl4] are tetragonal, space group I4̄2d, Z = 4, a = b = 1784.1(11), c = 1101.1(8) pm. Each copper atom is bonded to one cyclam ligand and two chlorine atoms which are acting as bridging ligands and connect the copper atoms to chains of distorted octahedra. Distorted tetrahedra of CdCl4 are situated in cavities between these chains. The crystals of [Cu(C10N4H24)][CdCl3(H2O)2]Cl are monoclinic (b), space group C2/c, Z = 4, a = 1581.9(8), b = 1323.3(7), c = 924.0(5) pm, β = 94.31(5)°. Cadmium is coordinated to four chlorine atoms and two water molecules, while all of the chlorine atoms act as bridging ligands connecting every cadmium atom to two adjacent cadmium atoms and to two copper atoms which lie in plane with the N atoms.

The tridentate macrocyclic ligands 1,4,7-triazacyclononane, its thia analogue 1,4,7-trithiacyclononane, 1-oxa-4,7-diazacyclononane, and N,N′,N″-trimethyl-1 ,4,7-triazacyclononane react with Re(CO)5Br in dimethylformamide to yield colorless, air-stable [LRe(CO)3]Br complexes (L = tridentate macrocycle). With Mn(CO)5Br only the cyclic amines react to afford yellow-orange [LMn(CO)3]Br complexes whereas 1,4,7-trithiacyclononane does not give stable complexes of manganese. The crystal structures of [([9]aneN3)Re(CO)3](NCS) and [([9]aneS3)Re(CO)3]Br · 1/2 H2O have been determined. The former crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P bca (a = 12/763(4), b = 12.662(5), c = 17.472(9) Å; Z = 8); whereas the latter crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c (a = 9.444(1). b = 11.797(2), c = 28.095(3) Å. β = 90,86(1); Z = 8).
