RESUMEN

A new strontium uranyl oxyfluoride, [(UO2)4F13][Sr3(H2O)8](NO3)·H2O, was synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. The single-crystal X-ray structure was determined. This compound crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1̅ (No. 2), with unit cell parameters a = 10.7925(16) Å, b = 10.9183(16) Å, c = 13.231(2) Å, α = 92.570(8)°, ß = 109.147(8)°, γ = 92.778(8)°, V = 1468.1(4) Å3, and Z = 2. The structure is built from uranyl-containing [Formula: see text] chains of tetrameric units of corner-sharing UO2F5 pentagonal bipyramids. These chains are linked through trimeric strontium units to form strontium-uranyl oxyfluoride layers further assembled by nitrate groups. The interlayer space is occupied by free water molecules. This compound was characterized by spectroscopic methods, especially 19F NMR highlighting the many different fluoride sites. Structural relationships with other uranyl oxyfluorides were investigated through the different F/O ratios, the structural building unit, and the structural arrangement.

RESUMEN

In the monomeric title complex, [Co(C6H8O4)(C10H9N3)(H2O)2]·3H2O, the distorted octa-hedral CoN2O4 coordination environment comprises two N-atom donors from the bidentate di-pyridyldi-amine ligand, two O-atom donors from one of the carboxyl-ate groups of the bidentate chelating adipate ligand and two water mol-ecules. In addition, there are three solvent water mol-ecules which are involved in both intra- and inter-unit O-H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter-actions, which together with an amine-water N-H⋯O hydrogen bond produce a three-dimensional framework.

RESUMEN

In the title hydrated mol-ecular salt, [Fe(C12H8N2)3](C9H5N4O)2·0.5H2O, the water mol-ecule site is half-occupied. The Fe-N bond lengths within the octa-hedral tris-chelate [Fe(phen)3](2+) ion (phen is 1,10-phenantroline) are indicative of a low-spin d(6) electronic configuration for the metal ion. The C-N, C-C and C-O bond lengths in the polynitrile anions indicate extensive electronic delocalization. In the crystal, the components are linked through O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming [100] chains, as well as through Coulombic inter-actions.

RESUMEN

In the structure of the title compound, (C5H7N2)[Cr(C2O4)2(H2O)2], two crystallographically independent formula units are present. Both chromium atoms are six-coordinated in a distorted octa-hedral geometry by two chelating equatorial oxalato ligands and two axial water mol-ecules. The [Cr(C2O4)2(H2O)2]⁻ anions and C5H7N2 ⁺ cations are linked through a complex three-dimensional hydrogen-bonding network consisting of N-H⋯O and O-H⋯O inter-actions.

RESUMEN

Single crystals of Ca(5)Zr(3)F(22), penta-calcium trizirconium docosafluoride, were obtained unexpectedly by solid-state reaction between CaF(2) and ZrF(4) in the presence of AgF. The structure of the title compound is isotypic with that of Sr(5)Zr(3)F(22) and can be described as being composed of layers with composition [Zr(3)F(20)](8-) made up from two different [ZrF(8)](4-) square anti-prisms (one with site symmetry 2) by corner-sharing. The layers extending parallel to the (001) plane are further linked by Ca(2+) cations, forming a three-dimensional network. Amongst the four crystallographically different Ca(2+) ions, three are located on twofold rotation axes. The Ca(2+) ions exhibit coordination numbers ranging from 8 to 12, depending on the cut off, with very distorted fluorine environments. Two of the Ca(2+) ions occupy inter-stices between the layers whereas the other two are located in void spaces of the [Zr(3)F(20)](8-) layer and alternate with the two Zr atoms along [010]. The crystal under investigation was an inversion twin.

RESUMEN

A new strategy was developed for the modification of silver(I) and gold(I) N-heterocyclic carbenes. Azido groups were grafted and used either by copper-catalysed azide-alkyne cycloaddition before metallation or by thermal and "strain-promoted" 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition after metallation to functionalise the metal-NHCs.

RESUMEN

We have previously demonstrated that pyrrolo[2,3-a]carbazole-3-carbaldehydes are potent Pim kinase inhibitors with in vitro antiproliferative activities. In the present study, we report the synthesis of new pyrrolocarbazoles substituted at the N-10 position. When their ability to inhibit Pim kinase activities were evaluated in in vitro assays, we observed that this nitrogen atom can be substituted without loss of Pim-1 and Pim-3 inhibitory potencies. Moreover, when we added a fluorescent dansyl group (compound 13), we were able to show that 13 penetrates the plasma membrane and enters the cytoplasm.

RESUMEN

The title compound, C(19)H(29)O(4), was synthesized from 9α-hy-droxy-parthenolide (9α-hy-droxy-4,8-dimethyl-12-methylen-3,14-dioxatricyclo-[9.3.0.0(2,4)]tetra-dec-7-en-13-one), which was isolated from the chloro-form extract of the aerial parts of Anvillea radiata. The mol-ecule is built up from two fused five- and ten-membered rings with the pyrrolidin-1-ylmethyl group as a substituent. The five-membered lactone ring has an envelope conformation, whereas the ten-membered and pyrrolidine rings display approximate chair-chair and twisted conformations, respectively. The dihedral angle between the ten-membered ring and the lactone ring is 18.01 (19)°. An intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bond occurs. The crystal structure is stabilized by weak inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter-actions.

The dihedral angle between the least-squares planes through the ten- and five-membered rings in the two mol-ecules are similar [22.54 (17) and 23.39 (14)°]. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by O-H⋯O, O-H⋯N and N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

RESUMEN

The title compound, C(16)H(23)Cl(2)NO, was synthesised from ß-himachalene (3,5,5,9-tetra-methyl-2,4a,5,6,7,8-hexa-hydro-1H-benzocyclo-heptene), which was isolated from the essential oil of the Atlas cedar (Cedrus Atlantica). The mol-ecule contains a seven membered ring, which is fused to a five- and a three-membered ring. The five-membered ring has a twisted conformation, whereas the seven-membered ring displays a chair conformation. The dihedral angle between the five- and seven-membered rings is 45.26 (9)°. The absolute structure was established unambiguously from anomalous dispersion effects. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked into chains propagating along the b axis by inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds; an intramolecular N-H⋯O link also occurs.

RESUMEN

The crystal structure of the new Li(5.5)Ce(12)F(50) compound has been fully characterized by single-crystal and synchrotron powder X-ray diffraction. An accurate pseudotetragonal structure was described in the monoclinic P2(1) space group with 68 independent crystallographic sites. The Li(5.5)Ce(12)F(50) composition belongs to the Li(2+x)Ce(x)(3+)Ce(12-x)(4+)F(50) solid solution. Its structure consists of an opened fluorine framework where a channel network allows the intercalation of relatively mobile lithium cations, inducing the formation of the mixed-valence cerium (the intercalation of Li(+) leads to the reduction of a part of Ce(4+) to Ce(3+)). One part of the lithium ions, necessary for the electroneutrality of the tetravalent equivalent cerium fluoride (Li(2)Ce(12)F(50) composition), is in a locked fluorine polyhedron. Only the supplementary x amount of lithium is able to be exchanged in Li(2+x)Ce(x)(3+)Ce(12-x)(4+)F(50). The structure of Li(2+x)Ce(x)(3+)Ce(12-x)(4+)F(50) is a rearrangement, due to lithium intercalation, of the base CeF(4) structure. Bond valence calculation on Ce sites, Ce coordination polyhedra volumes, and a calculated Ce cationic radius give the indication of a partial long-range ordering of trivalent and tetravalent cerium cations in specific slabs of the structure. (7)Li NMR spectroscopy and XPS analyses have confirmed all of the structure details.

Each LuO(6) octa-hedron is linked to six (P(4)O(12))(4-) rings, while each (P(4)O(12))(4-) ring is linked to eight LuO(6) octa-hedra.

RESUMEN

Single crystals of the title compound, Al(2)P(6)O(18), were obtained by solid-state reaction. The monoclinic structure is isotypic with its Cr(III), Ga(III) and Ru(III) analogues and is built up of six-membered phosphate ring anions, P(6)O(18) (6-), isolated from each other and further linked by isolated AlO(6) octa-hedra by sharing corners. Each AlO(6) octa-hedron is linked to four P(6)O(18) (6-) rings. More accurately, two rings are linked through bidentate diphosphate groups attached in the cis-positions to the AlO(6) octa-hedron. The other two rings are linked to the two remaining corners, also in cis-positions of the AlO(6) octa-hedron.
