Cover illustration: [CoFe(C5H5)(C16H14N2O2)(C11H9N2O)] combines the functionalities of ferrocene and Co(salen) complexes and may serve as a model compound for oxygen transport. The compound crystallized as disordered and
conformers, but a careful analysis of the diffraction data allowed the different salen ring conformations to be established (almost planar in the
conformer and puckered in the
conformer). See: Brautigam, Herholdt, Farnsworth, Brudi, McDonald, Wu & Contakes [Acta Cryst. (2015). E71, 1100-1104].

In this first crystal structure of an Ru complex with 6′,6"-bis(pyridin-2-yl)-2,2′:4′,4":2",2"'-quaterpyridine, a `half' of the ligand (one of the two terpyridyl units) is N^N^N mer-coordinated, whereas the other is free and adopts a trans,trans conformation about the interannular C—C bonds. The crystal packing features π–π stacking interactions between tpy–tpy ligands.

A pentacoordinated Zn2+ ion is found in each independent complex molecule of the title compound; the asymmetric unit is completed by three conformationally flexible non-coordinating benzylamine molecules. Supramolecular layers sustained by N—H⋯N and N—H⋯π interactions are found in the crystal packing; these are connected by π–π contacts.

A novel hexamolybdate(VI) polyanion protonated by an extra H atom is an unexpected polyanion species among the B-series Anderson-type polyoxometalates (POMs). The extra (seventh) H atom does not lie on a crystallographic centre of symmetry, but is located at the mid-point between two μ2-O atoms of adjacent polyanions, and forms a very short hydrogen bond.

In contrast to other similar compounds, [FeCl2(C14H30N4)]PF6 is a monomer. Comparison with the mononuclear Fe2+ complex of the same ligand shows that the smaller Fe3+ ion is more fully engulfed by the cavity of the bicyclic ligand. Comparison with the μ-oxo dinuclear complex of an unsubstituted ligand of the same size demonstrates that the methyl groups of 4,11-dimethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazabicyclo[6.6.2]hexadecane prevent dimerization upon oxidation.

In the solvated dinuclear complex [Cu2Br2(ATU)(dppm)2]·2CH3CN, both Cu+ ions adopt distorted tetrahedral geometries, being coordinated by one terminal Br atom, one μ2-S atom of the bridging ATU ligand and two P atoms of the bridging dppm ligands. Within the complex, intramolecular C—H⋯S, C—H⋯π, N—H⋯Br and π–π stacking interactions are observed. In the crystal, the components are linked by N—H⋯Br and C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds and weak π–π stacking interactions, generating chains propagating in the [100] direction.

The title cobalt(II) complex was prepared by mixing equimolar amounts of {2,2′-[ethane-1,2-diylbis(nitrilomethanylylidene)]diphenolato}cobalt(II) and N-ferrocenylisonicotinamide in dry dichloromethane under nitrogen and subsequently characterized by ESI–MS, IR, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The structure at 100 K has triclinic (P
) symmetry and indicates that the complex crystallizes as a mixture of λ and δ conformers. It exhibits the expected square-pyramidal geometry about the CoII atom, and forms hydrogen-bonded dimers through the amide N—H group and one of the phenolate O atoms on adjacent molecules.

Single crystals of CaIrO3 were grown from a CaCl2 flux at atmospheric pressure and crystallized with the post-perovskite type of structure. The crystal structure is reinvestigated on the basis of single-crystal X-ray diffraction data measured using a high-power X-ray source, and the atomic thermal vibration behavior is discussed in terms of the coordination environments.
