Project description:Single crystals of the title compound, tetra-lutetium(III) tris-(cyclo-tetra-phosphate), Lu(4)(P(4)O(12))(3), were obtained by solid-state reaction. The cubic structure is isotypic with its Al(III) and Sc(III) analogues and is built up from four-membered (P(4)O(12))(4-) phosphate ring anions ( symmetry), isolated from each other and further linked through isolated LuO(6) octa-hedra (.3. symmetry) via corner sharing. Each LuO(6) octa-hedron is linked to six (P(4)O(12))(4-) rings, while each (P(4)O(12))(4-) ring is linked to eight LuO(6) octa-hedra.
Project description:In the title compound, [Lu(C7H7)3(C4H8O)2] (1), the Lu ion is coordinated by three benzyl and two tetra-hydro-furan ligands. Two of the benzyl groups are bonded in a classical η1-fashion through the methyl-ene via the ipso-carbon atom of the benzyl ligand in addition to bonding through the methyl-ene C atom, resulting in a modified trigonal-bipyramidal coordination geometry about the Lu center.
Project description:The crystal structure of the title compound containing lutetium, the last element in the lanthanide series, was determined using a single crystal prepared by heating a pressed pellet of a 2:1 molar ratio mixture of Lu2O3 and Al2O3 powders in an Ar atmosphere at 2173?K for 4?h. Lu4Al2O9 is isostructural with Eu4Al2O9 and composed of Al2O7 di-tetra-hedra and Lu-centered six- and sevenfold oxygen polyhedra. The unit-cell volume, 787.3?(3)?Å3, is the smallest among the volumes of the rare-earth (RE) aluminates, RE 4Al2O9. The crystal studied was refined as a two-component pseudo-merohedric twin.
Project description:The title compound, [FeCl2(C14H30N4)]PF6, contains Fe(3+) coordinated by the four nitro-gen atoms of an ethyl-ene cross-bridged cyclam macrocycle and two cis chloride ligands in a distorted octa-hedral environment. In contrast to other similar compounds this is a monomer. Inter-molecular C-H⋯Cl inter-actions exist in the structure between the complex ions. Comparison with the mononuclear Fe(2+) complex of the same ligand shows that the smaller Fe(3+) ion is more fully engulfed by the cavity of the bicyclic ligand. Comparison with the μ-oxido dinuclear complex of an unsubstituted ligand of the same size demonstrates that the methyl groups of 4,11-dimethyl-1,4,8,11-tetra-aza-bicyclo-[6.6.2]hexa-decane prevent dimerization upon oxidation.
Project description:The title compound, poly[(μ2-hydrazine)(μ4-phosphato)iron(III)], [Fe(PO4)(N2H4)] n , was prepared under hydro-thermal conditions. Its asymmetric unit contains one Fe(III) atom located on an inversion centre, one P atom located on a twofold rotation axis, and two O, one N and two H atoms located on general positions. The Fe(III) atom is bound to four O atoms of symmetry-related PO4 tetra-hedra and to two N atoms of two symmetry-related hydrazine ligands, resulting in a slightly distorted FeO4N2 octa-hedron. The crystal structure consists of a three-dimensional hydrazine/iron phoshate framework whereby each PO4 tetra-hedron bridges four Fe(III) atoms and each hydrazine ligand bridges two Fe(III) atoms. The H atoms of the hydrazine ligands are also involved in moderate N-H⋯O hydrogen bonding with phosphate O atoms. The crystal structure is isotypic with the sulfates [Co(SO4)(N2H4)] and [Mn(SO4)(N2H4)].
Project description:In the complex cation of the title salt, [CrCl(C2H6OS)5]Cl2, the Cr(III) ion is coordinated by one chloride ligand and five O atoms from dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) ligands, leading to a slightly distorted octa-hedral coordination environment [O-Cr-O angles range from 86.69 (16) to 92.87 (16)°]. In the crystal, complex cations are arranged in hexa-gonally packed rows parallel to [010], with the chloride counter-anions situated in between. The inter-actions between cations and anions are mainly ionic in nature.
Project description:In the title compound, [Ho(C(6)H(12)Cl(3)N(3)O(2)P)(3)(C(18)H(15)OP)], the Ho(III) ion is surrounded by six O atoms from the three bidentate N-[bis-(dimethyl-amino)phosphino-yl]-2,2,2-trichloro-acetamido ligands (L(-)) and by one O atom from the triphenyl-phosphine oxide ligand, with the formation of a distorted monocapped octa-hedron. In one ligand L(-), the trichloro-methyl group is rotationally disordered between two orientations in a 1:1 ratio, while two dimethyl-amino groups in another ligand L(-) are disordered between two conformations, each with the same 1:1 ratio.
Project description:In the crystal structure of the title compound, discrete centrosymmetric complexes are observed, in which the Ni cations are octahedrally coordinated by two terminal N-bonded selenocyanate anions and four pyridine coligands. The reaction of nickel chloride hexahydrate with potassium selenocyanate and pyridine in water leads to the formation of crystals of the title complex, [Ni(NCSe)2(C5H5N)4], which were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Its crystal structure consists of discrete complexes, located on centers of inversion, in which the Ni cations are sixfold coordinated by two terminal N-bonded selenocyanate anions and four pyridine ligands within a slightly distorted octahedral coordination. In the crystal, the complexes are connected by weak C—H⋯Se interactions. PXRD investigations revealed that a pure crystalline phase has formed. In the IR and Raman spectra, the C—N stretching vibrations are observed at 2083 and 2079 cm−1, respectively, in agreement with the presence of only terminally bonded anionic ligands. Upon heating, one well-resolved mass loss is observed, in which two of the four pyridine ligands are removed, leading to a compound with the composition Ni(NCSe)2(C5H5N)2. In this compound, the C—N stretching vibration is shifted to 2108 cm−1 (Raman) and 2115 cm−1 (IR), indicating the presence of μ-1,3-bridging anionic ligands. In its PXRD pattern, very broad reflections are observed, indicating for poor crystallinity and/or very small particle size. This crystalline phase is not isotypic to its Co and Fe analogs.
Project description:The title compound, C12H14N6O, consists of three pyrazole rings bound via nitro-gen to the distal ethane carbon of meth-oxy ethane. The dihedral angles between the three pyrazole rings are 67.62 (14), 73.74 (14), and 78.92 (12)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by bifurcated C-H,H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming double-stranded chains along [001]. The chains are linked via C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional framework structure. The crystal was refined as a perfect (0.5:0.5) inversion twin.
