The synthesis and full characterization of two tetrathiafulvalene-appended azine ligands, namely 2-([2,2’-bi(1,3-dithiolylidene)]-4-yl)-6-((2,4-dinitrophenyl)hydrazono)methyl)pyridine (L1) and 5-([2,2’-bi(1,3-dithiolylidene)]-4-yl)-2-((2,4-dinitrophenyl)hydrazono)methyl)pyridine (L2) are described. The crystal structure of ligand L1 indicates that the ligand is completely planar with the presence of a strong intramolecular N3–H3···O1 hydrogen bonding. Titration experiments with inorganic anions showed that both ligands are suitable candidates for the sensing of fluoride anions. Ligand L2 was reacted with a Re(I) cation to yield the corresponding rhenium tricarbonyl complex 3. In the crystal structure of the newly prepared electroactive rhenium complex the TTF is neutral and the rhenium cation is hexacoordinated. The electrochemical behavior of the three compounds indicates that they are promising for the construction of crystalline radical cation salts.

Abstract Purpose The aim of the study was to present the spectroscopic characteristics and crystal structure of the etazene—a benzimidazole opioid, which appeared on the illegal drug market in Poland in the last weeks. Methods The title compound was analyzed by X-ray crystallography as well as gas and liquid chromatography combined with mass spectrometry. Spectroscopic techniques have also been used, such as nuclear magnetic resonance, infrared and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopies. Results We presented the identification and the broad chemical characterization of etazene, a synthetic opioid that has recently been introduced on the illegal drug market. Conclusions In this paper, we described single-crystal X-ray, chromatographic and spectroscopic characterization of a synthetic opioid that emerged on the new psychoactive substance (NPS) market in Poland. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first full characterization of etazene. Analytical data presented in the work can be helpful in identification and detection of the NPS in forensic and clinical laboratories.

We report the synthesis and characterization of a novel 4-(dimethylamino)pyridinium-substituted η3-cycloheptatrienide–Pd complex which is free of halide ligands. Diacetonitrile{η3-[4-(dimethylamino)pyridinium-1-yl]cycloheptatrienido}palladium(II) bis(tetrafluoroborate), [Pd(C2H3N)2(C14H16N2)](BF4)2, was prepared by the exchange of two bromide ligands for noncoordinating anions, which results in the empty coordination sites being occupied by acetonitrile ligands. As described previously, exchange of only one bromide leads to a dimeric complex, di-μ-bromido-bis({η3-[4-(dimethylamino)pyridinium-1-yl]cycloheptatrienido}palladium(II)) bis(tetrafluoroborate) acetonitrile disolvate, [Pd2Br2(C14H16N2)2](BF4)2·2CH3CN, with bridging bromide ligands, and the crystal structure of this compound is also reported here. The structures of the cycloheptatrienide ligands of both complexes are analogous to the dibromide derivative, showing the allyl bond in the β-position with respect to the pyridinium substituent. This indicates that, unlike a previous interpretation, the main reason for the formation of the β-isomer cannot be internal hydrogen bonding between the cationic substituents and bromide ligands.

A new bi-capped Keggin heteropoly molybdovanadated derivative, [Co (en)3]2[SiMo8V6O42]∙6H2O (1) (en = ethylendiamine) has been hydrothermally synthesized and structurally characterized by the elemental analysis, IR, XPS and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal structure analysis reveals that compound 1 consists of [Co (en)3]2+transition metal coordination fragment and the [SiMo8V6O42]4-building blocks, which are linked together via hydrogen-bonding interactions to form a new 3-D supramolecular networks.

Improvements in the syntheses of the carboxamide-substituted tris(pyrazolyl)borate ligands TpCONHPh,Me[tris(3-anilinocarbonyl-5-methylpyrazol-1-yl)borate] and TpCONHt-Bu,Me[tris(3-tert-butylaminocarbonyl-5-methylpyrazol-1-yl)borate] are reported. Their TlIsalts, namely [tris(3-anilinocarbonyl-5-methylpyrazol-1-yl-κN2)borato]thallium(I), [Tl(C33H31BN9O3)], (II), and [tris(3-tert-butylaminocarbonyl-5-methylpyrazol-1-yl-κN2)borato]thallium(I), [Tl(C27H43BN9O3)], (III), as well as the CuIcarbonyl complexes (TpCONHPh,Me)Cu(CO), namely carbonyl[tris(3-anilinocarbonyl-5-methylpyrazol-1-yl-κN2)borato]copper(I) tetrahydrofuran trisolvate, [Cu(C33H31BN9O3)(CO)]·3C4H8O, (IV), and (TpCONHt-Bu,Me)Cu(CO), namely carbonyl[tris(3-tert-butylaminocarbonyl-5-methylpyrazol-1-yl-κN2)borato]copper(I) tetrahydrofuran hemisolvate, [Cu(C27H43BN9O3)(CO)]·0.5C4H8O, (V), have been prepared. Their spectroscopic properties and structures are compared with those of related compounds. The molecules of (II)–(V) show hydrogen bonding to either solvent molecules or neighboring complex moleculesviaamide groups. The title compounds feature the ability to engage other ligands in hydrogen bonding and they show strong electron-withdrawing character. Compound (V) displays voids ofca800 Å3in the crystal structure.

The reaction of Ga2(SO4)3·18H2O and excess 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine (terpy) in MeOH / H2O leads to [Ga(OH)(SO4)(terpy)(H2O)]·H2O (1·H2O] in good yield. The structure of the complex has been determined by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. The GaIII atom in 1·H2O is 6-coordinate and ligation is provided by one terdentate terpy molecule, one monodentate sulfate, one terminal hydroxide and one terminal H2O molecule; the coodination polyhedron about the metal is described as a distorted octahedron. There is an extensive hydrogen-bonding network in the crystal structure which generates corrugated layers parallel to bc. The new complex was characterized by IR and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The spectroscopic data are discussed in terms of the nature of bonding

Some new N-benzyl phosphoramidic acid (4-methylphenyl)ester derivatives were synthesized and characterized by 1H, 13C, 31P NMR and IR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The structure of [(C6H5)(CH3)CH-NH]P(O)(p-OC6H4CH3)2 (2) was investigated. This compound exists in polymeric zigzag chains in the crystalline lattice produced by hydrogen bonding built from two alternating independent molecules. NMR data indicate two diastereotopic p-cresol groups as confirmed by Xray crystallography. Ab initio calculations were performed on the geometry of compound 2 at the UHF/6-311G** and B3LYP/6-311G** levels. The optimized structure of each independent molecule contains two different p-cresol groups, in agreement with the experimental results.

The synthesis and characterization of two new tetronic acid zinc (II) complexes of the empirical formulae [Zn(L–H)2(H2O)2] (1) and [Zn(L–H)2(H2O)(MeOH)]H2O(2) found within the same crystal are reported. The zinc ions bind through alkoxide and carbonyl groups of the ligand 3-methoxycarbonyl-5-phenyl tetronic acid (LH) as indicated byHNMR and X-ray crystallographic studies. These complexes promote intra- and intermolecular interactions, such as hydrogen bonding andπstacking, giving place to the formation of molecular aggregates.

The synthesis, reactivity and full characterization of a series of meso-tetraalkyl porphyrins and metalloporphyrins with R ≡ n-butyl (6), 2-methyl-propyl (7), isopropyl (8), l-ethyl-propyl (10) and tert-butyl (11) groups are reported. Derivatives of the last of these show considerably bathochromically shifted absorption bands and the crystal structure of Zn ( II )11(pyr) exhibits a severely ruffled macrocycle conformation. Systematic crystallographic studies of the porphyrins showed that the free base porphyrins with R ≡ n-butyl ( H 26), 2-methyl-propyl ( H 27) and 1-ethyl-propyl ( H 210) are planar. A larger conformational variety was found for the metal complexes. While most Ni ( II ) derivatives and Pd ( II )8 showed a ruffled macrocycle conformation with a degree of ruffling exceeding that of meso-unsubstituted porphyrins, both planar and non-planar forms were found for the related Cu ( II ) derivatives. The Zn ( II ) complexes of porphyrins with isopropyl or 1-ethyl-propyl exhibited conformations with variable degree of distortion. Together with comparative structures from the literature, this study provides experimental evidence that considerable conformational flexibility exists for meso-alkylporphyrins with substituents less bulky than tert-butyl groups.
