Cover illustration: The molecular structures of the molybdenum(II) cyclopentadienyl complexes [Mo(C5H5)(COCH3)P(CH3)2(C6H5)(CO)2], (1), and [Mo(C5H5)(COCH3)P(C2H5)(C6H5)2)(CO)2], (2), exhibit a four-legged piano-stool geometry with trans-disposed carbonyl ligands. The steric demands of the different phosphine ligands in (1) and (2) have a minor effect on bond lengths and angles within the complex molecule whereas the crystal packing in both structures is markedly different, with the acetyl oxygen atom playing a crucial role as an acceptor of non-classical C---H...O hydrogen bonds. See: Whited, Hofmeister, Hodges, Jensen, Keyes, Ngamnithiporn & Janzen [Acta Cryst. (2014). E70, 216-220].

The title compounds are the 3-ethyl, (I), and 3-isopropyl, (II), derivatives of (1-methyl-2,6-diphenylpiperidin-4-ylidene)amino phenyl carbonate. The main difference in the conformation of the two compounds is the angle of inclination of the phenoxycarbonyl ring with respect to the piperidine ring mean plane, with a dihedral angle of 2.05 (8)° in (I) and 45.24 (13)° in (II).

The title salts, C8H13N4+·Cl−, (I), and C8H13N4+·NO3−, (II), contain linked pyridinium–piperazine heterocycles. In the crystal of (I), weak N—H⋯Cl interactions lead to zigzag chains along [100] while in the crystal of (II), bifurcated N—H⋯(O,O) hydrogen bonds and weak C—H⋯O interactions collectively link the components into infinite chains along [100].

The MnIII ion in the title compound shows a slightly distorted octahedral coordination geometry with two O and four N atoms of the pyrrolyl derivative ligand. In the crystal, intermolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the pyrrole group of the ligand and the uncoordinated nitrate ion give a chain structure along [10].

The title molecule, a rare example of a π-conjugated triazene, crystallized with two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. In the crystal, the two independent molecules stack head-to-tail probably due to the presence of the dipole moment of the meta nitro group.
