The title binuclear Zn(II) compound, [Zn(2)(C(12)H(9)O(3))(4)(H(2)O)(2)], is centrosymmetric. Each Zn atom is coordinated by two bridging 2-naphthoxyacetate anions, one terminal 2-naphth-oxy-acetate anion and one water mol-ecule in a distorted ZnO(4) tetra-hedral geometry. The naphthalene system of the bridging ligand is nearly perpendicular to the naphthalene of the terminal ligand, with a dih...

The structure of the title compound, [Li(C(5)H(3)N(2)O(2))(H(2)O)](n), is composed of centrosymmetric dimers in which two Li(I) ions are bridged by a carboxyl-ate O atom, each donated by a ligand, acting in a bidentate mode. The second carboxyl-ato O atoms bridge the dimers to Li(I) ions in adjacent dimers, forming mol-ecular layers parallel to (001). Each Li(I) ion is coordinated by two bridgi...

The title compound, [Na(2)(C(10)H(16)Cl(3)N(3)O(4)P)(2)(H(2)O)(2)](n), can be considered as a two-dimensional coordination polymer in which one-dimensional chains are connected to each other by inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds involving the water mol-ecules. The Na(I) ion is five-coordinated in a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal geometry. The connection between the two Na(I) ions is facilitat...

The title compound, [Li(C(5)H(4)N(3)O(2))(H(2)O)](n), is composed of centrosymmetric dinuclear units, in which the Li(I) ions are bridged by two carboxyl-ate O atoms donated by two ligands. The dinuclear unit is nearly planar [r.m.s. deviation = 0.0125 (2) Å]. The Li(I) ion is coordinated by an N,O-chelating ligand, a bridging carboxyl-ate O atom from another ligand and two bridging water O ato...

In the title complex, [La(C₇H₄BrO₃)Cl₂(C₁₂H₈N₂)](n), the La(III) ion is eight-coordinated by two carboxyl-ate O atoms from two 5-bromo-salicylate ligands, two N atoms from a chelating 1,10-phenanthroline ligand and four bridging Cl atoms in a distorted square-anti-prismatic geometry. The La(III) ions are linked by bridging carboxyl-ate groups and chloride anions into a chain along [100]. An int...

The title compound, [Cu(2)(C(9)H(12)N(4))(3)](CF(3)SO(3))(2), contains two Cu(I) ions, three bis-(1-methyl-imidazol-2-yl)methane (Me(2)BIM) ligands, and two trifluoromethanesulfonate anions in the asymmetric unit. Each Cu(I) ion has a distorted trigonal-planar geometry and is coordinated by two N atoms from the Me(2)BIM ligand and another N atom from the Me(2)BIM that acts as a bridging ligand,...

In the title complex, [Cd(2)(CH(3)COO)(2)Cl(2)(C(16)H(14)N(4))(CH(3)OH)(2)](n), the Cd(II) atom is six-coordinated by one N atom from a centrosymmetric bridging 1,2-bis-(2,2'-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)ethane (bbe) ligand, two O atoms from a chelating acetate ligand, one O atom from a methanol mol-ecule and two bridging Cl atoms in a distorted octa-hedral geometry. The Cd(II) atoms are connected alte...

In the centrosymmetric dinuclear title compound, [Cd2(C7H4ClO2)4(C6H6N2O)2(H2O)2], the Cd(II) atom is coord-inated by one N atom from one bridging nicotinamide ligand and one O atom from another symmetry-related bridging nicotinamide ligand, four O atoms from two 3-chloro-benzoate ligands and one water mol-ecule in an irregular geometry. The dihedral angles between the carboxyl-ate groups and t...

The centrosymmetric title complex, [μ-ethane-1,2-diylbis(di-phenyl-phosphane)-κ2P:P']bis-[penta-carbonyl-tungsten(0)], [W2(C26H24P2)(CO)10], consists of two W(CO)5 moieties bridged by a bis-(di-phenyl-phosphan-yl)ethane (dppe) ligand. The W0 atom has a slightly distorted octa-hedral coordination environment consisting of 5 carbonyl ligands and one P atom from the bridging dppe ligand with the n...

Two silver(I) coordination architectures with the flexible ligand 1,6-bis(phenylthio)hexane (L) have been synthesized and their crystal structures determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. Different frameworks were observed in the two complexes due to variation of the counter anions. The dinuclear complex [Ag(L)(ClO4)]2 (1) has a cage structure with the perchlorate anions coordinated to the two...
