    The reactions of M-II sulfates (M = Zn, Cd) with the flexible ligand 1,4-bis(imidazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene (bix) yield the novel interesting coordination networks [M-2(bix)(3)(SO4)(2)], containing 1D polymeric motifs of alternating rings and rods, which show extended rotaxane-like mechanical links producing 2D sheets via unprecedented parallel (M = Zn) or inclined (M = Cd) interlacing modes of the chains

    The structure of the title compound, RhCl(CO)(PPh3)2, has been investigated in its monoclinic modification. It belongs to space group P21/n (No. 14), with cell constants a 12.182(3), b 24.285(5), c 11.894(3) Å, β 113.10(2)°, Z = 4. The structure was solved by conventional Patterson and Fourier methods, on the basis of 4295 significant counter data, by least-squares methods to a final conventional R values of 0.051. The complex exhibits a square planar coordination, with the two bulky phosphine ligands in mutually trans positions. The mean value of the RhP bond lengths is 2.326 Å. The RhCl, RhC and CO bond lengths are 2.371(2), 1.810(7), and 1.144(8) Å, respectively. The structure is compared with those of similar species and the small differences observed between the monoclinic and triclinic modifications of this compound are discussed. © 1973

    The title compound, [N(CH3)4]4[Rh13H(CO) 24]·3C5H9NO, crystallises in the triclinic space group P1 with unit-cell dimensions a = 22.596(11), b = 14.263(7), c = 14.512(8) Å, α = 65.56(3), β = 107.58(4), γ = 100.86(5)°, and Z = 2. The structure has been solved by conventional Patterson and Fourier methods from single-crystal X-ray counter data and refined by least-squares methods to R 0.061 for 3 680 significant reflections. The anion, of idealised Cs symmetry, containing a centred twinned-cuboctahedron of metal atoms, is similar to that of the other members of the family [Rh13H5-n(CO)24]n- already studied. The mean value of the Rh-Rh bond lengths, ranging from 2.718(3) to 2.894(3) Å, is 2.782 Å. The Rh-C and C-O interactions for the 12 terminal and for the 12 edge-bridging CO groups have mean values of 1.80, 1.18, and 1.97, 1.21 Å, respectively. The hydride atom has been located in a semi-octahedral cavity, i.e. on a square face of the cluster, bisected by the ideal mirror plane

    Crystal and molecular structure of bis(tetraethylammonium) 1,2;2,3;3,1-tri-μ-hydrido-μ 3,-oxo-1,1,1,2,2,2,3,3,3-enneacarbonyl-triangulo-trirhenate(2-)

    The title compound, [NEt4]2[Re3H3O(CO)9], crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pnma with cell constants a = 15.05(2), b = 12.32(1), c = 18.35(2) Å, Z = 4. The structure has been determined by vector methods from single-crystal X-ray counter data and refined by block-diagonal least squares to a conventional R value of 0.032 for 1 147 independent reflections. The anion contains an equilateral triangle of metal atoms (mean Re-Re 2.968 Å) capped by a symmetric triply bridging oxo-ligand (mean Re-O 2.12 Å). The carbonyl groups are all terminally bonded, three for each rhenium atom (mean Re-C and C-O 1.88 and 1.18 Å). The overall idealized anion symmetry is C3v. The carbonyl disposttion implies that the three hydrido-ligands lie in bridging positions on the Re3 triangular edges
