Methyl 3-[(trimethylsilyl)ethynyl]benzoate
The title compound was synthesized via a Sonogashira Coupling reaction using cis-[PdCl2 (PPh3)2] and 1 mole % CuI. The two molecules in the unit cell pack utilizing weak intermolecular hydrogen-bonding interactions between carbon H atoms and neighboring oxygen atoms in the methyl benzoate group.
(Acetato-κO)bis(4,4′-dimethoxy-2,2′-bipyridine-κ2N,N′)copper(II) 3,5-bis(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-4-nitropyrazolate monohydrate
The complex cation, with a conordination environment of the CuII atom intermediate between square-pyramidal and trigonal-bipyramidal, crystallizes with a bulky pyrazolato anion and partly disordered solvent molecules.
2-Azido-N-(o-tolyl)acetamide
In the title molecule, the inner C—N—C—C portion is planar and the phenyl ring and azide group are rotated to be well out of this plane. In the crystal, N—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds plus C—H⋯π(ring) interactions form chains of molecules extending along the a-axis direction.
(η6-1-Isopropyl-4-methylbenzene)bis(η1-pyridin-2-ylethynido-κC)(trimethylphosphane-κP)ruthenium(II)
The title complex, [Ru(C7H4N2)2(C10H14)(C3H9P)] or (p-cym)Ru(C2-2py)2(PMe3), where p-cym = η6-1-isopropyl-4-methylbenzene and C2-2py = η1-C-pyridin-2-ylethynide, comprises a pseudo-octahedral RuII atom with p-cym occupying one face of the octahedron and the other face comprised of monodentate PMe3 and two η1-C2-2py ligands. In the crystal, hydrogen bonding involving one nitrogen donor and one C—H acceptor from each pyridine ring generates dimers propagating along the a-axis direction via supporting C—H⋯π interactions.
(5,10,15,20-{2,2′,2′′,2′′′-[(1,21,23,25-Tetrapentyl-2,20:3,19-dimetheno-1H,21H,23H,25H-bis[1,3]dioxocino[5,4-i:5′,4′-i′]benzo[1,2-d:5,4-d′]bis[1,3]benzodioxocin-7,11,15,28-tetrayl)tetrakis(oxyethane-2,1-diyloxy)]tetraphenyl}porphyrinato)nickel(II) chloroform monosolvate
Crystal structure of an NiII–porphyrin-based macrocyclic compound with a chloroform chlathrate.
trans-Diaquabis(pyridin-2-yl thiophen-2-yl ketone-κ2N,O)zinc(II) bis(tetrafluoridoborate)
The ZnII atom in the title complex cation (site symmetry 1) shows a pseudo-octahedral coordination by two aqua ligands and two chelating ligands bound through the carbonyl O and pyridyl N atoms, which is consistent with other late first-row transition-metal structures of this ligand with CoII, NiII, and CuII.
