The crystal structure of the new double CuII complex salt, [Cu(L)(H2O)2][Cu(L)]Br4·2H2O (L = 3,14-diethyl-2,6,13,17-tetra­aza­tri­cyclo­[16.4.0.07,12]docosane, C22H44N4) has been determined using synchrotron radiation. The asymmetric unit contains one half of a [Cu(L)(H2O)2]2+ cation, one half of a [Cu(L)]2+ cation (both completed by crystallographic inversion symmetry), two bromide anions and one water solvent mol­ecule. The CuII atom in the first complex exists in a tetra­gonally distorted octa­hedral environment with the four N atoms of the macrocyclic ligand in equatorial and two aqua ligands in axial positions, whereas the CuII atom in the second complex exists in a square-planar environment defined by the four nitro­gen atoms of the macrocyclic ligand. The two macrocyclic rings adopt the most stable trans-III configuration with normal Cu—N bond lengths from 2.016 (3) to 2.055 (3) Å and an axial Cu—O bond length of 2.658 (4) Å. The crystal structure is stabilized by inter­molecular hydrogen bonds involving the macrocycle N—H or C—H groups and the O—H groups of water mol­ecules as donor groups, and the O atoms of water mol­ecules and bromide anions as acceptor groups, giving rise to a one-dimensional network extending parallel to [100].

The crystal structure of the novel hydrated CuII salt, [Cu(L)(H2O)2]Cl2·4H2O (L = 3,14-diethyl-2,6,13,17-tetra­aza­tri­cyclo­[16.4.0.07,12]docosane, C22H44N4) has been determined using synchrotron radiation. The asymmetric unit contains one half of the [Cu(L)(H2O)2]2+ cation (completed by crystallographic inversion symmetry), one chloride anion and two lattice water mol­ecules. The copper(II) atom exists in a tetra­gonally distorted octa­hedral environment with the four N atoms of the macrocyclic ligand in equatorial and two O atoms from water mol­ecules in axial positions. The latter exhibit a long axial Cu—O bond length of 2.7866 (16) Å due to the Jahn–Teller distortion. The macrocyclic ring adopts a stable trans-III conformation with typical Cu—N bond lengths of 2.0240 (11) and 2.0441 (3) Å. The complex is stabilized by hydrogen bonds formed between the O atoms of coordinated water mol­ecules and the NH groups as donors, and chloride anions as acceptors. The chloride anions are further connected to the lattice water solvent molecules through O—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds, giving rise to a three-dimensional network structure. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The crystal structure of title compound, (C14H36N4)[CrO3Cl]2Cl2, has been determined by synchrotron radiation X-ray crystallography at 220 K. The macrocyclic cation lies across a crystallographic inversion center and hence the asymmetric unit contains one half of the organic cation, one chlorochromate anion and one chloride anion. Both the Cl- anion and chlorochromate Cl atom are involved in hydrogen bonding. In the crystal, hydrogen bonds involving the 1,4,8,11-tetramethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazoniacyclotetradecane (TMC) N--H groups and C--H groups as donor groups and three O atoms of the chlorochromate and the chloride anion as acceptor groups link the components, giving rise to a threedimensional network.

The crystal structure of title salt, C14H36N44+·2ClO4-·2Cl-, has been determined using synchrotron radiation at 220-K. The structure determination reveals that protonation has occurred at all four amine N atoms. The asymmetric unit contains one half-cation (completed by crystallographic inversion symmetry), one perchlorate anion and one chloride anion. A distortion of the perchlorate anion is due to its involvement in hydrogen-bonding interactions with the cations. The crystal structure is consolidated by intermolecular hydrogen bonds involving the 1,4,8,11-tetramethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazoniacyclotetradecane N-H and C-H groups as donor groups, and the O atoms of the perchlorate and chloride anion as acceptor groups, giving rise to a three-dimensional network.

The structure of the title compound, [Cr(tacn)2]2[ZnCl4]3·H2O (tacn is 1,4,7-tri­aza­cyclo­nonane; C6H15N3), has been determined from synchrotron X-ray data. Each CrIII cation is coordinated by the six N atoms from the two tacn ligands, displaying a distorted octa­hedral geometry. Three distorted tetra­hedral [ZnCl4]2− anions and one lattice water mol­ecule lie outside this coordination sphere. The Cr—N bond lengths are in the range 2.0621 (11) to 2.0851 (12) Å, while the mean inner N—Cr—N bond angle is 82.51 (5)°. The crystal packing is stabilized by hydrogen-bonding inter­actions with the N—H groups of the tacn ligands and the water O—H groups acting as donors, and the O atoms of the water mol­ecules and Cl atoms of the [ZnCl4]2− anions as acceptors. Overall these contacts lead to the formation of a three-dimensional network. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Ag(C24H46N6O2)](NO3)2 [C24H46N6O2 is (5,16-dimethyl-2,6,13,17-tetra­aza­tri­cyclo­[16.4.0.07,12]docosane-2,13-di­yl)diacetamide, L], consists of one independent half of the [Ag(C24H46N6O2)]2+ cation and one nitrate anion. The Ag atom, lying on an inversion centre, has a square-planar geometry and the complex adopts a stable trans-III conformation. Inter­estingly, the two O atoms of the pendant acetamide groups are not coordinated to the AgII ion. The longer distance of 2.227 (2) Å for Ag—N(tertiary) compared to 2.134 (2) Å for Ag—N(secondary) may be due to the effects of the attached acetamide group on the tertiary N atom. Two nitrate anions are very weakly bound to the AgII ion in the axial sites and are further connected to the ligand of the cation by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The crystal packing is stabilized by hydrogen-bonding inter­actions among the N—H donor groups of the macrocycle and its actetamide substituents, and the O atoms of the nitrate anions and of an acetamide group as the acceptor atoms.

The two [CrO7]2- anions exhibit a nearly staggered conformation, with bridging angles of 133.37 (11) and 136.28 (12)°.

The structure of the title hybrid compound, (C6H16N2)[CrO4], has been determined from synchrotron data. The organic cation adopts a chair conformation. The inorganic CrO42- anion is slightly distorted owing to its involvement in N--H⋯O hydrogen-bonding interactions with neighbouring trans-cyclohexane-1,2-diammonium cations, whereby the two Cr--O bonds to the O atoms acting as acceptor atoms for two hydrogen bonds are slightly longer than the other two Cr--O bonds for which only one acceptor interaction per O atom is observed. In the crystal, cations and anions are packed into layers parallel to (001), held together through the aforementioned N--H⋯O hydrogen bonds. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
