    Notes: The hydrogen-bond networks and crystal packing of 81 unique secondary di- and polyamides in the Cambridge Structural Database are investigated. Graph-set analysis, as implemented in the RPluto program, is used to classify network motifs. These have been rationalized in terms of the relative dispositions of the amide groups. Peptide and retropeptides exhibit significant conformational flexibility, which permits alternative hydrogen-bonding patterns. In peptides, dihedral angles of −ψ ∼ φ ∼ 105° allow an antiparallel ladder arrangement, containing rings of either the same or alternating sizes. For retropeptides, and diamides with an odd number of CH2 spacers, this conformation leads to a parallel ladder with rings of equal size. If φ approaches −60° and ψ 180°, ladders adopt a helical twist, and if the conformation is distorted further, a three-dimensional network is usually adopted. Diamides with aromatic or an even number of CH2 spacers generally form either antiparallel ladders or sheets, although some exhibit both polymorphs. Symmetry relationships within and between hydrogen-bonded chains, ladders and sheets in the crystal packing have also been analysed. Polyamides form considerably more complex networks, although many of the structural motifs present in the diamides occur as components of these networks.

    Notes: A method for the detection of approximate molecular symmetry in crystal structures has been developed. The point-group symmetry is assigned to each molecule and the relevant symmetry elements can be visualized, superimposed on the molecule. The method has been validated against reference structures with exact symmetry subjected to small random perturbation.

    Notes: A method of visualizing intermolecular networks (for example, hydrogen-bonded networks) in the crystalline state has been developed, based on the concept of link atoms, i.e. those atoms deemed to be in contact with each unique molecule or ion in the crystal chemical unit (CCU). Extension of a structure using each of these primary links can be achieved, enabling the generation and investigation of extended networks. Algorithms have been developed for the automatic assignment of graph-set notation for patterns up to second level, i.e. those involving one or two crystallographically independent non-covalent bonds, in the absence of internal crystallographic symmetry in the unique molecules of the CCU. The self, ring, chain and discrete motifs may be displayed by highlighting the atoms and bonds comprising the pattern. These methodologies have been implemented in the Cambridge Structural Database program PLUTO.

    Notes: Algorithms for the automatic assignment of graph-set notation for intermolecular networks have been extended to molecules having internal crystallographic symmetry, for patterns up to the second level. This provides a means of achieving systematic and consistent assignments for networks containing symmetric molecules. These methodologies have been implemented in the program RPLUTO. Examples are given of the application of the method to a number of molecules with hydrogen-bonded and other intermolecular networks, illustrating the diversity of the patterns that occur.

    Notes: A methodology has been developed for the semi-automatic assignment and checking of formal oxidation states for metal atoms in the majority of metallo-organic complexes stored in the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD). The method uses both chemical connectivity and bond-length data, via ligand donor group templates and bond-valence sums, respectively. In order to use bond-length data, the CSD program QUEST has been modified to allow the coordination sphere of metal atoms to be recalculated using user-defined criteria at search time. The new methodology has been used successfully to validate the +1, +2 and +3 oxidation states in 743 four-coordinate copper complexes in the CSD for which atomic coordinates are available in ca 99% of structures using one or other method, and both succeed for 〉86% of structures.

    Notes: The geometries of four-coordinate CuI and CuII complexes in the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) have been analysed systematically and compared using symmetry-deformation coordinates and principal component analysis. The observed stereochemistries have been rationalized in terms of the d-electron configurations, interligand repulsion and π-bonding effects. The results confirm that the majority of four-coordinate copper(I) complexes in the CSD adopt tetrahedral geometries and deviations from tetrahedral symmetry are caused by the presence of chelating ligands or by the incorporation of copper centres into dimeric or polymeric structures. Four-coordinate copper(II) complexes generally adopt geometries close to square planar; this is particularly evident for bis(chelate) complexes where π-bonding is important. Distortions towards tetrahedral geometries are attributable to steric interactions of bulky substituents in the bidentate ligands.

    Notes: A systematic survey of the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) has identified all intramolecular hydrogen-bonded ring motifs comprising less than 20 atoms with N and O donors and acceptors. The probabilities of formation Pm of the 50 most common motifs, which chiefly comprise five- and six-membered rings, have been derived by considering the number of intramolecular motifs which could possibly form. The most probable motifs (Pm 〉 85%) are planar conjugated six-membered rings with a propensity for resonance-assisted hydrogen bonding and these form the shortest contacts, whilst saturated six-membered rings typically have Pm 〈 10%. The influence of intramolecular-motif formation on intermolecular hydrogen-bond formation has been assessed for a planar conjugated model substructure, showing that a donor-H is considerably less likely to form an intermolecular bond if it forms an intramolecular one. On the other hand, the involvement of a carbonyl acceptor in an intramolecular bond does not significantly affect its ability to act as an intermolecular acceptor and thus carbonyl acceptors display a substantially higher inclination for bifurcation if one hydrogen bond is intramolecular.

    Notes: Abstract The reaction of the di-gold cation [Au2(dppx)]2+ with the heptanuclear cluster dianion [Os7(CO)20]2− affords the mixed metal cluster [Os7(CO)20{Au2(dppx)}] (x=m (1), e (2), b (3)). On standing, in solution, this complex undergoes decarbonylation to give the cluster [Os7(CO)19{Au2(dppx)}] (x=m (4), e (5), b (6)). The complexes have been characterised spectroscopically, and an X-ray structure determination of the dppm derivative shows that it contains a metal core based on an Os7 edge-bridged bicapped tetrahedron with the two μ 3-Au atoms capping adjacent triangular Os3 faces of the central tetrahedron. In an analogous reaction, the carbido anion [Os7(H)C(CO)19]− affords the neutral cluster [Os7C(CO)19{Au2(dppm)}] (7) when treated with [Au2(dppm)]2+ in the presence of base.
