Ruthenium(II) complexes of the thiacyclophane ligands 2,5,8-trithia[9]-o-cyclophane (TT[9]OC) and 5-oxa-2,8-dithia[9]-o-cyclophane (ODT[9]OC) were synthesized by ligand displacement reactions employing RuCl2(DMSO)4, RuCl2(PPh3)3, and RuHCl(PPh3)3 as starting materials. X-ray crystal structures of two of these complexes, RuCl2(DMSO)(TT[9]OC) and RuCl2(PPh3)(ODT[9]OC), demonstrate how TT[9]OC and ODT[9]OC bind to Ru(II). RuCl2(DMSO)(TT[9]OC) crystallized as the DMSO solvate in the orthorhombic space group Pbca with a = 19.590(5), b = 16.849(4), c = 13.149(4) Å, V = 4340(3) Å3, and Z = 8. The structure refined to R = 5.27% and Rw = 6.27% for 2472 reflections with Fo2 > 3σ(Fo2). RuCl2(PPh3)(ODT[9]OC) crystallized as a ClCH2CH2Cl solvate in the monoclinic space group P21/c with a = 7.912(1), b = 22.419(5), c = 18.794(3) Å, β = 101.12(1),° V = 3271.2(9) Å3, and Z = 4. The structure refined to R = 4.96% and Rw = 5.14% for 1800 reflections with Fo2 > 3σ(Fo2). Both compounds are octahedral with the thiacyclophane ligand bound through three donor atoms in a facial coordination mode, cis chlorine atoms, and the unique ancillary ligand, DMSO or PPh3, bound trans to the central S or O donor of the macrocycle. The X-ray structures support 1H NMR spectral evidence which shows that the ligands are bound in an "endo" mode for L = DMSO and in an "exo" mode when L = PPh3. The reaction of RuHCl(PPh3)3 with TT[9]OC yields the ruthenium hydride complex RuHCl(PPh3)2(TT[9]OC). 1H and 31P NMR spectroscopy are consistent with an octahedral species for which the macrocycle occupies only two coordination sites acting as a bidentate η2-chelating ligand. Keywords: thioether, macrocycle, hydride, crystal structure.

NiCl2 reacts with NaSR in methanol solution to give the black diamagnetic complexes [Ni5(SR)10] (R = Et, 1) and [Ni4(SR)8] (R = C6H11 , 2). Crystals of 1 are monoclinic, space group P21/h with a = 13.149(4), b = 15.571(4), c = 17.917(5) Å , β = 105.31(2)° and Z = 4. 2 crystallizes from methylene chloride with sixteen solvent molecules per unit cell in the orthorhombic space group Ibca with a = 17.902(8), b = 18.289(8), c = 37.99(2) Å and Z = 8. The structures of 1 and [Ni4(SC6HM)8] · 2 CH 2Cl2 (3) have been determined by X-ray crystallography and refined to R(RW) = 0.072 (0.062) and 0.119 (0.128), respectively. Both complexes are cyclic neutral molecules and contain square planar NiS4 coordination sites (1: mean Ni - S 2.200 Å , mean S -Ni -S 81.8 ( 2 x ) . 98.3 ( 2 x ) , 170.8° ( 2 x ) ; 2: mean Ni - S 2.213 Å , mean S - Ni - S 80.9 (2 x ) , 98.2 ( 2 x ) , 167.5°(2 x )) condensed via opposite edges. A s a result, prismatic sulfur frameworks are observed which are pentagonal in the case of 1 and tetragonal in the case of 2. Their lateral faces are centered by Ni atoms. The symmetry of the Ni-S core portion approaches D5h for 1 and D4h for 2. With reference to the toroidal N i-S frameworks, the sulfur-carbon bonds of each pair of opposite ligands are in axial and equatorial positions, respectively. This configuration alternates around the prismatic sulfur arrangement which is completely compatible with the even number of nickel atoms present in 2, but results in a node for 1 due to the five-fold symmetry.

In a systematic search for supramolecular complexes involving all combinations of the cyclic polyethers 12-crown-4 (12C4), 15-crown-5 (15C 5), 18-crown-6 (18C 6) and dibenzo- 18-crown-6 (DB -18C6), and the geminal di- or trisulfones H2C(SO 2Me)2, H2C (SO2Et)2 and HC (SO2Me)3-n (SO2Et)n (n = 0 -3 ) , only the following four complexes could be isolated and unequivocally characterized by elemental analysis and 1H NMR spectroscopy: [(12C4){H2C (SO2Et)2}2] (3), [(18C6){H2C (S O2Me)2}] (4), [(DB -18C 6){H2C (SO2Et)2}] (5) and [(D B -18C 6)2{HC (SO2Me )(SO2Et)2}3] (6). The structure of 3 (triclinic, space group P1̄) consists of crystallographically centrosymmetric formula units, in which the disulfone molecules are bonded on each side of the ring by two C -H ··· O(crown) interactions originating from the central methylene group (H···O 213 pm) and from the methylene group of one EtSO2 moiety ( H ··· O 237 pm). Formula units related by translation are connected into parallel strands by a third type of reciprocal C -H ···O bond (H ···O 232 pm) between the second H atom of the central methylene group and a sulfonyl oxygen atom of the adjacent unit. The structure of 4 (monoclinic, space group C2/c) showed severe disorder of the crown ether and could not be refined satisfactorily. Compounds 5 and 6 crystallized as long and extremely thin fibres, indicative of linear-polymeric supramolecular structures; single crystals for X-ray crystallography were not available.

The structures of two crystalline modifications of mer -(Pme2Ph)3H-cis-Cl2IrIII, (1), have been determined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. Modification (A) is monoclinic, space group P21/c with a 12.635(1), b 30.605(3), c 14.992(2)Ǻ, β 110.01(2)° and Z = 8. Modification (B) is orthorhombic, space group Pbca with a 27.646(3), b 11.366(1), c 17.252(2)Ǻ and Z = 8. The structures were solved by conventional heavy atom techniques and refined by full-matrix least- squares analyses to conventional R values of 0.037 [(A), 8845 independent reflections] and 0.028 [(B), 5291 independent reflections]. Important bond lengths [Ǻ] are Ir -P(trans to Cl ) 2.249(1) av. (A) and 2.234(1) (B), Ir -P(trans to PMe2Ph) 2.339(2) av. (A) and 2.344(1), 2.352(1) (B), Ir-Cl (trans to H) 2.492(2), 2.518(2) (A) and 2.503(1) (B) and Ir-Cl (trans to PMe2Ph)2.452(2) av. (A) and 2.449(1)(B). Differences in chemically equivalent metal- ligand bond lengths emphasize the importance of non-bonded contacts in determining those lengths.

Reaction of (1) in CH2Cl2 with benzimidazole yields . The salt [4]+BPh4- has been prepared in THF by metathesis of [4]+Cl- with NaBPh4. Deprotonation of the cationic ring in [4]+BPh4- was accomplished using 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.01,7]undec-7-ene and resulted in the six-membered carbacyclophosphazene (6). Treating 1 with 8 -hydroxyquinoline in CH2Cl2 yields the octahedral cis-complex = 8-oxyquinolinate group). The com pounds [4]+BPh4-, 6 and 7 are characterized by their IR, Raman, 31P{1H} NMR, 13C{1H} NMR, 1H NMR and mass spectra. Crystals suitable for X-ray structure analyses have been obtained for [4]+BPh4- and 7×0.5 CH2Cl2.

The crystal structures of the title compounds were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. The molecule of the Z isomer, which crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with Z = 4 in a cell of dimensions a = 14.891 (2), b = 10.780(2), c = 8.769(1) Å, β = 97.47(2)°, V = 1395.7(7) Å3 has crystallographic twofold symmetry. The E form crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbca with a = 11.730(1), b = 6.932(1), c = 16.841(1) Å, V = 1369.4(2) Å3 and Z = 4. Its molecules have crystallographically dictated [Formula: see text] symmetry. In both isomers the phenyl rings are roughly perpendicular to the average ethylene plane. The atoms characterizing this plane show significant deviations from planarity in the Z isomer. Marked bond-angle distortions at the ethene carbons of both structures are observed. The 1H and 13C NMR spectra of the compounds were measured and, particularly in the case of the 1H chemical shifts, fall into two quite separate spectral regions. At low temperature, two conformational isomers, those with different relative orientation of the C—Cl bonds of the phenyl rings, are observed in the spectrum of each compound. Keywords: chlorostilbenes, overcrowded molecules. X-ray structure, conformations, NMR spectroscopy.

Abstract The molecular motion in (CH3)3XCl, X = Sn and Pb has been investigated by measurement of the second moment M2(1H) as function of temperature in the range 95 < T,/K<345. The methyl groups in both compounds rotate freely over the whole temperature range studied. In (CH3)3SnCl the C'3-rotation of (CH3)3Sn-group about the Sn CI axis sets in above 273 K. To explain the NMR and INS results, the crystal structures of (CH3)3PbCl and CH3SnBr3 were determined by single X-ray diffraction. (CH3)3PbCl crystallizes in a monoclinic space group C32-C2, a = 1276.7(3) pm, b = 982.3(3) pm, c = 547.0(2) pm, ß = 91.12(1)°; Z = 4, R = 0.035. CH3SnBr3 crystallizes in an orthorhombic space group D162h-Pnma, a = 643.0(3) pm, b= 1005.3(4) pm, c= 1148.0(4) pm; Z = 4, R =0.057
