Reduction of Zr(IV) metallocenium cations with sodium amalgam (NaHg) produces EPR signals assignable to Zr(III) metallocene complexes. The chloro-bridged heterodinuclear ansa-zirconocenium cation [(SBI)Zr(μ-Cl)2AlMe2](+) (SBI = rac-dimethylsilylbis(1-indenyl)), present in toluene solution as its B(C6F5)4(-) salt, thus gives rise to an EPR signal assignable to the complex (SBI)Zr(III)(μ-Cl)2AlMe...

Azo-ligand-(HL)([4-((2-hydroxyquinolin-3-yl)diazenyl)-N-(5-methylisoxazol-3-yl)benzenesulfonamide] ) , (2- hydroxy quinolin derivative),reacts with the next metal ions (Cr (III), Fe (III),Co (II) and Cu(II)) forming stable complexes unique geometries such as(tetrahedral for bothCo Cu (II), octahedral both Cr (III) (III)). The creation of was detected by employing spectroscopic means involving u...

In the title compound, [In(C(11)H(10)N(2))Cl(3)(C(2)H(6)OS)], the In(III) cation is six-coordinated in a distorted octa-hedral configuration by two N atoms from the chelating 6-methyl-2,2'-bipyridine ligand, one O atom from a dimethyl-sulfoxide group and three Cl(-) anions.

In the crystal structure of the title complex, [YbCl(2)(C(18)H(15)N(5))(CH(3)OH)(2)]Cl, the pseudo-penta-gonal-bipyramidal coordination geometry of the Yb(III) cation is composed of three N atoms from one cis-(±)-2,4,5-tris-(pyridin-2-yl)imidazoline (HL) ligand, two O atoms from two methanol mol-ecules and two Cl(-) anions. Chains are formed along [010] through N-H⋯Cl, O-H⋯Cl and O-H⋯N hydrogen...

1, 8-Dioxo-octahydroxanthene derivatives have efficiently been synthesized from dimedone and aromatic aldehydes using [Fe(III)(salen)Cl] complex as an efficient and homogeneous catalyst in molten tetrabutyl ammonium bromide. This methodology offers several advantages, such as good yields, short reaction times, simple procedure, and mild conditions.

The asymmetric unit of the title salt, (C8H10N3)[FeCl4], contains one 1,3-dimethyl-1H-1,2,3-benzotriazol-3-ium cation and one tetra-chloridoferrate anion. The Fe(III) atom in the anion is tetra-hedrally coordinated by four Cl atoms. In the crystal, inter-actions are observed between the Cl atoms and the triazolium ring [Cl⋯centroid distances = 3.587 (3) and 3.866 (3) Å].

In the title compound, [CoCl(C(2)H(8)N(2))(2)(C(7)H(9)N)]Cl(2)·H(2)O, the Co(III) ion has a distorted octa-hedral coordination environment and is surrounded by four N atoms in an equatorial plane, with the other N and Cl atoms occupying the axial positions. The crystal packing is stabilized by N-H⋯O, N-H⋯Cl and O-H⋯Cl inter-actions.

In the cation of the title compound, [AuCl(2)(C(24)H(16)N(2))][AuCl(4)], the Au(III) atom is four-coordinated in a distorted square-planar configuration by two N atoms from a 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline ligand and two terminal Cl atoms. In the anion, the Au(III) atom has a square-planar coordination. In the crystal structure, intra- and inter-molecular C-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds are found.
