An unusual cleavage and macrocyclization in the zinc-aqueous acid reduction of [2-methyl-2-nitro-N,N'-bis(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)-propane-1,3-diamine]copper(II) cation. Crystal structure of the (6,13-dimethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane-6,13-diamine)copper(II) perchlorate product

TL;DR: The macromonocyclic complex (6,13-dimethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane-6, 13-diamine) perchlorate as discussed by the authors was the major product, apparently by cleavage of both pyridine rings from the precursor ligand and direct recombination of two saturated residues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phosphine substituted Ru3(μ-dppm)(CO)10: structural trends within [Ru3(μ-dppm)(PR3)(CO)9] (R=Et, Ph, Cy and Pri)

TL;DR: In this paper, a single crystal X-ray analysis of the RuRu bond adjacent to the phosphine ligand suggests the enhanced reactivity of Ru3(μ-dppm)(CO)10] over the parent carbonyl [Ru3(CO)12] to be consequent on the inability of the bulky, bidentate dppm ligand.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural Systematics of Rare Earth Complexes. XXI Polymeric Sodium Bis(thiodiglycolato)neodymiate(III)

TL;DR: In this paper, a single-crystal, room-temperature, X-ray structure determination is recorded for the title compound, NaNd(tdga)2 (‘tdga2-’ ≡ −OCOCH2SCH2COO-).
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural Studies on the Basic Ionic Liquid 1-Ethyl-1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octanium Bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide and Its Bromide Precursor

TL;DR: The structure of 1-ethyl-1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2] octanium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([C2DABCO][NTf2]) was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction, and its behavior with temperature was examined by synchrotron powder diffraction and Raman spectroscopy as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural and vibrational spectroscopic studies of complexes of trimethylphosphine with copper(I) and silver(I) halides

TL;DR: In this paper, a one-dimensional polymer of quasi-cubanoid Cu4Cl4 units disposed with their body diagonals coincident with the crystallographic 3-axis and linked by Cu-Cl bonds between the four-coordinate apical atoms of successive units was presented.
