RESUMEN
The crystal structures of two inter-mediates, 4-amino-3,5-di-fluoro-benzo-nitrile, C7H4F2N2 (I), and ethyl 4-amino-3,5-di-fluoro-benzoate, C9H9F2NO2 (II), along with a visible-light-responsive azo-benzene derivative, diethyl 4,4'-(diazene-1,2-di-yl)bis-(3,5-di-fluoro-benzoate), C18H14F4N2O4 (III), obtained by four-step synthetic procedure, were studied using single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The mol-ecules of I and II demonstrate the quinoid character of phenyl rings accompanied by the distortion of bond angles related to the presence of fluorine substituents in the 3 and 5 (ortho) positions. In the crystals of I and II, the mol-ecules are connected by N-Hâ¯N, N-Hâ¯F and N-Hâ¯O hydrogen bonds, C-Hâ¯F short contacts, and π-stacking inter-actions. In crystal of III, only stacking inter-actions between the mol-ecules are found.
RESUMEN
The title compound, systematic name tris-(µ2-perfluoro-o-phenyl-ene)(µ2-3-phenyl-4H-chromen-4-one)-triangulo-trimercury, [Hg3(C6F4)3(C15H10O2)], crystallizes in the monoclinic P21/n space group with one flavone (FLA) and one cyclic trimeric perfluoro-o-phenyl-enemercury (TPPM) mol-ecule per asymmetric unit. The FLA mol-ecule is located on one face of the TPPM acceptor and is linked in an asymmetric coordination of its carbonyl oxygen atom with two Hg centers of the TPPM macrocycle. The angular-shaped complexes pack in zigzag chains where they stack via two alternating TPPM-TPPM and FLA-FLA stacking patterns. The distance between the mean planes of the neighboring TPPM macrocycles in the stack is 3.445â (2)â Å, and that between the benzo-γ-pyrone moieties of FLA is 3.328â (2)â Å. The neighboring stacks are inter-digitated through the shortened Fâ¯F, CHâ¯F and CHâ¯π contacts, forming a dense crystal structure.
RESUMEN
A CuII coordination polymer, catena-poly[[[aqua-copper(II)]-bis-(µ-4-amino-benz-o-ato)-κ2 N:O;κ2 O:N] monohydrate], {[Cu(pABA)2(H2O)]·H2O}n (pABA = p-amino-benzoate, C7H4NO2 -), was synthesized and characterized. It exhibits a one-dimensional chain structure extended into a three-dimensional supra-molecular assembly through hydrogen bonds and π-π inter-actions. While the twinned crystal shows a metrically ortho-rhom-bic lattice and an apparent space group Pbcm, the true symmetry is monoclinic (space group P2/c), with disordered Cu atoms and mixed roles of water mol-ecules (aqua ligand/crystallization water). The luminescence spectrum of the complex shows an emission at 345â nm, cf. 349â nm for pABAH.
