Two series of complexes have been prepared by reaction of 2,5-dimethyl-2,5-diisocyanohexane (TMB) with AgX [Formula: see text]. Complexes of the first series, Ag(TMB)X, have been obtained with [Formula: see text]. The structures have been determined by X-ray diffraction for [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. The crystals contain infinite chains of silver atoms alternating with bridging TMB ligands. When [Formula: see text], the Ag atom is best described as (2 + 2)-coordinated, with two of the coordination sites filled by [Formula: see text] acting as a bidentate ligand. When [Formula: see text], the Ag—TMB chain is of a different type and Ag can be considered two-coordinated and weakly interacting with a monodentate [Formula: see text] ion. The second series includes Ag2(TMB)3X2 complexes whose structure consists of pairs of chains cross-linked by extra TMB ligands leading to a ladder-like pattern. A weak unidentate interaction involving [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text] is also apparent. The infrared data are in agreement with the X-ray results, since the highest v(C≡N) value is obtained for Ag(TMB)BF4, where Ag—CN distance is the shortest. The conformation of TMB is always trans about the central CH2—CH2 bond. The methyl groups render one of the staggered orientations of the —C(CH3)2(NC) groups unfavorable, leaving two conformations for coordinated TMB, both of which are observed in the Ag complexes.

Abstract(±)-1-oxoferruginol and (±)-shonanol, two potential intermediates in the synthesis of tricyclic diterpenoid ferruginol, have been prepared and crystal structures of the compounds have been investigated using single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. The methyl groups of the isopropyl moiety in (±)-shonanol are disordered over two positions with occupation factors 0.65(1) and 0.35(1), respectively. Although the chemical structures of two compounds are very similar, a C—C single bond in the terminal six-membered ring of (±)-1-oxoferruginol is replaced by a C=C bond in (±)-shonanol, the quantitative isostructurality index calculations indicate that the structures are not isostructural. Intermolecular O—H…O hydrogen bonds between pairs of molecules in the compounds related by center of inversion lead to characteristic dimers forming R

The crystal structures of racemic bis [α-(9-anthryl)] ether and its meso form have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods at 295 K, being refined by least squares to residuals of 0.053 and 0.041 for 1868 and 3568 independent 'observed' reflections respectively. Crystals of the racemate are orthorhombic, Pcab, a 23.07(1), b 19.85(2), c 10.241(8) Ǻ, Z 8. Crystals of the meso form are triclinic, Pī , a 19.032(12), b 14.207(11), c 9.451(8) Ǻ, α 79.46(6), β 89.68(6), γ 68.97(5)°, Z 4. In the racemate , the dihedral angle between the methyl groups along the ether bonds is 12°, and the short axes of the anthracene moieties lie at an angle of about 120°. In the meso compound, for the two molecules the dihedral angles between the methyl groups along the ether bonds are 90 and 93°, the angle between the two anthracene moieties is 90°, and the interplanar angles between the partly overlapping aromatic systems are 46 and 43°.

Abstract The reactions of N-alkyl-N′-picolyl-benzimidazolium bromides or N,N′-dipicolyl-benzimidazolium bromide with silver oxide yielded the silver dicarbene complexes of the type [Ag(NHC)2][AgBr2] 1–4 (NHC = picoline-functionalized benzimidazolin-2-ylidene). The silver complexes 1–4 have been used in carbene transfer reactions to yield the gold(I) complexes of the type [AuCl(NHC)] 5–8 in good yields. A halide exchange at the metal center of complexes 5–8 with lithium bromide yielded the gold bromide complexes 9–12. Finally, the oxidation of the gold(I) centers in complexes 9–12 with elemental bromine gave the gold(III) complexes of the type [AuBr3(NHC)] 13–16. Molecular structures of selected Au(I) and Au(III) complexes have been determined by X-ray diffraction studies.

The molecular structure of N,N,N',N',2,2-hexamethylpropanediamide has been determined in the solid state by X-ray diffraction methods. The structure of Me2NCOCMe2CONMe2 may be broadly described as two planar Me2NCO entities intersecting at the tetrahedral -CMe2- site. The angle between the normals to the two Me2NCO planes is 104.6�, and the two oxygen atoms are disposed outwards from the molecule and away from each other. Proton (270-MHz) n.m.r. studies yield k(320 K) 32.0 � 3.2 s-1, ΔH‡ 69.5 � 0.4 kJ mol-1 and ΔS‡ 0.6 � 1.1 J K-1 mol-1 for rotation of the N-methyl groups about the carbon-nitrogen bonds in CD3NO2 solution. Similar magnitudes for the kinetic parameters characterizing this process are obtained in CDCl3, and CD3CN solutions.

Starting from 4-bromoacetophenone 1, the 4-bromo-β -hydroxydithiocinnamic acid 2 and the 4-bromo-β -hydroxydithiocinnamic acid hexyl ester 3 were prepared using carbon disulfide and potassium-tert-butylate as a base. Acting as a ligand, the acid gives 1,1-ethenedithiolato complexes with (Ph3P)2Pt(II) (4a), (Et3P)2Pt(II) (4b), dppePt(II) (4c), (Ph3P)2Pd(II) (4d), dppePd(II) (4e), and dppeNi(II) (4f). In contrast to the acid, the deprotonated ester 3 forms a monoanionic bidentate ligand. [O,S] Complexes of Pt(II) (5a), Pd(II) (5b) and Ni(II) (5c) were obtained. All complexes have been fully characterised using 1H NMR, 13C NMR and 31P NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, infrared spectroscopy and elemental analyses. The molecular structures of the complexes 4b and 5a - 5c were determined by X-ray diffraction analyses.

CH3HgN3 crystallizes in the space group P21/c with four molecules per unit cell. The structure was solved by common crystallographic methods using X-ray diffraction data that were collected at a temperature of 100°K. The cooling was necessary to limit the radiation damage of the crystals. The molecules possess an essentially linear C-Hg-N group; in the crystals they are associated to layers bearing the methyl groups on their outer side.

The crystal structure of 3,4,7,8-tetramethylglycoluril (5) was determined by X-ray diffraction. The structure reveals a hydrogen-bonding motif in the crystal lattice that differs from that present in related glycolurils. The two sides of each molecule form part of two independent, but parallel, infinite helical chains. These chains are formed by the NH donor and C==O acceptor on one side of a glycoluril molecule, forming H-bonds to two different molecules at adjacent positions within the helix. On the other side of the same molecule, a similar motif generates another helix of opposite helicity to the first. The molecule has a crystallographic plane of symmetry through the two bridgehead carbon atoms and the two bridgehead methyl groups, which are syn-periplanar. Thus, 5 is similar to 3,4-dimethylglycoluril (3), but differs from some glycolurils, where there is a significant dihedral angle between the two bridgehead-to-bridgehead substituent bonds. Bond lengths and angles in 5 resemble those reported for 3, but bond lengths around the bridgehead positions are slightly lengthened relative to 3.Key words: glycoluril, 1,2,5,8-tetramethyl-2,6,7,8-tetraazabicyclo[3.3.0]octane-3,7-dione, X-ray diffraction, crystal structure, hydrogen-bond array.

The dicarbene silver complexes 1a, b of the type [Ag(NHC)2][AgBr2] (NHC = N,N'-dialkylbenzimidazolin- 2-ylidene) have been prepared from the parent benzimidazolium salts by reaction with silver oxide. The silver complexes have been used for the transfer of the carbene ligand to gold(I) giving the gold complexes [AuCl(NHC)] 2a, b in good yields. Crystals of 2a, b have been obtained from chloroform/pentane solutions, and X-ray diffraction structure analyses revealed gold(I) atoms coordinated in a linear fashion by an NHC carbon atom and a chloro ligand

Abstract The 5,5′-bibenzimidazolium dibromide salts 2 and 3 have been prepared by fourfold N-alkylation of 5,5′-bibenzimidazole (2: R=Pr; 3: R=Bu). The diazolium salts were treated with silver oxide, and the in situ-formed silver complexes were subsequently reacted with [AuCl(SMe2)] to give the dinuclear gold complexes 4 and 5. The molecular structure of complex 5 has been determined by X-ray diffraction showing linearly coordinated gold(I) centers and, most likely due to steric crowding around the metal centers, no aurophilic interactions.
