The title cocrystal, C(18)H(15)OP·C(6)H(6)O(2), belongs to a series of mol-ecular systems based on triphenyl-phosphine P-oxide. The O atom of the oxide group acts as an acceptor for hydrogen bonds from OH groups of two hydro-quinone mol-ecules which lie on inversion centres [O⋯O = 2.7451 (17) and 2.681 (2) Å]. The crystal structure is stabilized by weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a C(2) (1)(...

The reaction of ethyl 3-bromo-3-phenyl-propano-ate with pentane-2,4-dione, in the presence of palladium(II) acetate and triphenyl-phosphine, in dimethyl-formamide, unexpectedly gave the title product, C(16)H(20)O(4). The mol-ecule contains one chiral C atom but the crystal is racemic. In the crystal, neighboring mol-ecules form a chain along [100] through three weak C-H⋯O inter-actions. Further...

The title compound, [Rh(C(10)H(7)N(2)O(2))(C(18)H(15)P)(CO)]·(CH(3))(2)CO, is the second structural report of a metal complex formed with the O,O'-C(10)H(7)N(2)O(2) (neocupferrate) ligand. In the crystal structure, the metal centre is surrounded by one carbonyl ligand, one triphenyl-phosphine ligand and the bidentate neocupferrate ligand, forming a distorted square-planar RhCO(2)P coordination ...

In the title compound, [Ho(C(6)H(12)Cl(3)N(3)O(2)P)(3)(C(18)H(15)OP)], the Ho(III) ion is surrounded by six O atoms from the three bidentate N-[bis-(dimethyl-amino)phosphino-yl]-2,2,2-trichloro-acetamido ligands (L(-)) and by one O atom from the triphenyl-phosphine oxide ligand, with the formation of a distorted monocapped octa-hedron. In one ligand L(-), the trichloro-methyl group is rotationa...

The dinuclear molecule of the title compound, [Cu(2)(C(2)O(4))(C(18)H(15)P)(4)]·2CH(2)Cl(2), lies across an inversion center with a strictly planar bridging oxalate ligand coordinating two Cu(I) ions via two pairs of O atoms. Two triphenyl-phosphine ligands also coordinate each symmetry-related Cu(I) ion, resulting in a distorted tetra-hedral geometry [O-Cu-O = 80.57 (5)° and P-Cu-P = 125.72 (2...

In the title complex, [Cu(C(20)H(13)BrN(4))(C(18)H(15)P)(2)]BF(4)·0.5CH(2)Cl(2), the copper(I) cation adopts a distorted tetra-hedral arrangement, coordinated by two triphenyl-phosphine ligands and two N atoms of the potentially tridentate terpyridine ligand. One half-mol-ecule of dichloro-methane crystallizes with the complex. The chlorine atoms are disordered over two sites with occupancies f...

In the title compound, [Cu(C(18)H(15)P)(2)(H(2)O)]BF(4), the Cu(I) atom is coordinated by two P atoms from triphenyl-phosphine ligands and one water mol-ecule in a distorted trigonal geometry. In the BF(4) (-) anion, three F atoms are disordered over two sites around the B-F bond, the site-occupancy ratio being 0.67 (6):0.33 (6). The Cu⋯F distance of 2.602 (5) Å between the Cu atom and the orde...

The title compound, [CuI(C(18)H(15)P)(3)]·C(2)H(3)N, was obtained from the reaction of triphenyl-phosphine and copper(I) iodide in acetonitrile. The monomeric form of the complex has slightly distorted coordination of Cu by the I atom and three P atoms. The crystal structure is stabilized by C-H⋯π inter-actions between phenyl H atoms and phenyl rings. In addition, the complex mol-ecules exhibit...

The Os(II) atom in the title compound, [OsCl(2)(C(8)H(12))(C(18)H(15)P)(2)], is located on a crystallographic twofold axis and adopts a distorted octa-hedral coordination geometry. The two triphenyl-phosphine ligands are trans to each other, while the two chlorine ligands are cis-disposed. The coordination is completed by the cyclo-octa-diene (COD) ligand with bonding to the two olefin double b...

The title structure,[IrCl(C(8)H(12))(C(14)H(10)F(5)P)], reveals that (C(2)F(5))PPh(2) (penta-fluoro-ethyl-diphenyl-phosphane or pfepp) disrupts the iridium dimer [(cod)IrCl](2) (cod = cyclo-octa-1,5-diene) by rupturing the bridging chloride ligands and binding in the open coordination site to form (cod)Ir(pfepp)Cl with the Ir(I) atom in a distorted square-planar coordination environment. The st...
