The redox-active fac-[Mo(V)(mp)(3)](-) (mp: o-mercaptophenolato) bearing asymmetric O- and S-cation binding sites can bind with several kinds of metal ions such as Na(+), Mn(II), Fe(II), Co(II), Ni(II), and Cu(I). The fac-[Mo(V)(mp)(3)](-) metalloligand coordinates to Na(+) to form the contact ion pair {Na(+)(THF)(3)[fac-Mo(V)(mp)(3)]} (1), while a separated ion pair, n-Bu(4)N[fac-Mo(V)(mp)(3)]...

3,4-Dichlorophenol (1) crystallizes in the tetragonal space group I41/a with a short axis of 3.7926 (9) Å. The structure is unique in that both type I and type II Cl⋯Cl interactions are present, these contact types being distinguished by the angle ranges of the respective C-Cl⋯Cl angles. The present study shows that these two types of contacts are utterly different. The crystal structures of 4-...

The title complex, [CuCl(2)(C(9)H(13)N(3))], is mononuclear and contains a five-coordinate Cu(II) atom. The geometry of the Cu(II) atom can be described as tetra-gonal-pyramidal derived from the calculation of the value τ = 0.102. The three N atoms of the pyridine and ethane-1,2-diamine ligands and one Cl atom belong to the basal plane and the other Cl atom represents the axial position of the ...

The title compound, {[NiCl(2)(C(5)H(6)N(2))(C(3)H(7)NO)]·C(3)H(7)NO}(n), is a two-dimensional polymer in which the Ni(II) atom is coordinated by two N atoms from two 3-amino-pyridine ligands, one O atom from a dimethyl-formamide (DMF) group, one terminal Cl and two bridging Cl atoms in a distorted octa-hedral geometry. The Ni(II) atoms are bridged by the 3-amino-pyridine ligands [Ni⋯N = 6.7048 ...

In the title complex, (C(5)H(6)ClN(2))(C(7)H(8)NO)[CoCl(4)], the Co(II) ions are tetra-hedrally coordinated. The crystal structure is built from hydrogen-bonded centrosymmetric tetra-mers of tetra-chloridocobaltate(II) dianions and 3-amino-2-chloro-pyridinium cations, additionally strengthened by significant π-π stacking of pyridinium rings [interplanar distance 3.389 (3) Å]. The tetra-mers are...

The title dinuclear copper complex, [Cu(2)(C(15)H(15)N(6)O)Cl(2)(CH(3)OH)(2)]ClO(4), was prepared by the reaction of copper(II) chloride with bis-[1-(2-pyrid-yl)ethyl-idene]carbonohydrazide in the presence of sodium perchlorate in a methanol solution. It features a mono-deprotonated bis-tridentate ligand, which coordinates to two independent Cu(II) ions, one of which is coordinated by pyridyl N...

In the title complexes, trans-(2-amino-pyridine-κN)di-chlorido-{4-eth-oxy-carbonyl-meth-oxy-3-meth-oxy-1-[(2,3-η)-prop-2-en-1-yl]benzene}-platinum(II), [PtCl2(C5H6N2)(C14H18O4)], (I), and (2-amino-pyridine-κN)chlorido{5-eth-oxy-car-bon-yl-meth-oxy-4-meth-oxy-1-[(2,3-η)-prop-2-en-1-yl]phenyl-κC1}-platinum(II), [Pt(C14H17O4)Cl(C5H6N2)], (II), the central PtII metal atom displays a distorted squar...

The previously developed enantioselective iodocyclization of gamma-hydroxy-cis-alkenes required 30 mol% of (R,R)-salen-Co(II) complex as chiral catalyst and 0.75 equivalent of N-chlorosuccinimide (NCS) as activator to produce 2-substituted tetrahydrofurans with 61 to 90% ee. Due to the considerable loading amount of the Co(II) complex, another more effective catalyst was pursued by screening (R...

Using a group of six neutral M(II)Cl(2)-containing coordination compounds as building blocks, the first systematic investigation of C-H...Cl hydrogen-bonding interactions was performed. Single-crystal X-ray structural analyses of four new compounds (pseudo-tetrahedral Co(II) and Zn(II); distorted trigonal bipyramidal Zn(II)) authenticate the metal coordination geometry. To provide a unified vie...
