The reaction of MgCl(2), NiCl(2), and Na(2)(i-mnt) (i-mnt is 1,1-dicyano-thene-2,2-dithiol-ate) with 15-crown-5 (15-C-5) leads to an infinite chain polymer, {[NiMg(2)(C(4)N(2)S(2))(2)(C(10)H(20)O(5))(2)]Cl(2)}(n) or {[Mg(15-C-5)](2)[Ni(i-mnt)(2)]Cl(2)}(n), which consists of two [Mg(15-C-5)](2+) complex cations, one [Ni(i-mnt)(2)](2-) complex anion and two Cl(-) ions per formula unit. In the [Ni...

The Sn(IV) atom in the title compound, 2[Sn(CH(3))(2)(C(6)H(5))Cl(H(2)O)]·C(10)H(20)O(5), exists in a trans-C(3)SnClO trigonal bipyramidal geometry in which the organo substituents occupy the equatorial sites. The coordinated water mol-ecule forms two hydrogen bonds to the 15-crown-5 mol-ecule, which is disordered about a center of inversion.

Complex formation between the silver(I) ion and monoazaand diaza-crown ethers has been studied in five polar, nonaqueous solvents using potentiometric techniques. The stability constants are spread over seven orders of magnitude, and the major contributor to this variation is the solvation of the silver(I) cation. The ring-size dependence of the stability constants is determined both by the cor...

Compounds consisting of [M(1,2-disila-[3n]crown-n)]2+ (M = Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba; n = 5, 6) and [Ba(1,2-disila-benzo[18]crown-6)]2+ cations and different anions were obtained by equimolar reaction of the hybrid disila-crown ethers 1,2-disila[15]crown-5 (1), 1,2-disila[18]crown-6 (2) and 1,2-disila-benzo[18]crown-6 (7) with alkaline earth metal salts. Even with strongly coordinating anions such as Br- ...
