The structure of the title compound, (Ag0.79Co0.11)Co(H2O)2[BP2O8]·0.67H2O is isotypic to that of its recently published counterparts AgMg(H2O)2[BP2O8]·H2O and (Ag0.57Ni0.22)Ni(H2O)2[BP2O8]·0.67H2O. It consists of infinite borophosphate helical ribbons [BP2O8]3−, built up from alternate BO4 and PO4 tetrahedra arranged around the 65 screw axes. The vertex-sharing BO4 and PO4 tetrahedra form a spiral ribbon of four-membred rings in which BO4 and PO4 groups alternate. The ribbons are connected through slightly distorted CoO4(H2O)2 octahedra whose four O atoms belong to the phosphate groups. The resulting three-dimensional framework is characterized by hexagonal channels running along [001] in which the remaining water molecules are located. The main difference between the Mg-containing and the title structure lies in the filling ratio of Wyckoff positions 6a and 6b in the tunnels. The refinement of the occupancy rate of the site 6a shows that it is occupied by water at 67%, while the refinement of that of the site 6b shows that this site is partially occupied by 78.4% Ag and 10.8% Co, for a total of 82.2%. The structure is stabilized by O—HO hydrogen bonds between water molecules and O atoms that are part of the helices.

The title compound, Co2Pb(HPO4)(PO4)OH·H2O, which was synthesized under hydrothermal conditions, crystallizes in a new structure type. Except for two O atoms in general positions and two Co atoms on centres of symmetry, all other atoms in the asymmetric unit (1 Pb, 2 Co, 2 P, 8 O and 4 H) are located on mirror planes. The structure is built up from two infinite linear chains, viz. 1∞[CoO2/1(H2O)2/2O2/2] and 1∞[CoO2/1(OH)2/2O2/2], of edge-sharing CoO6 octahedra running along [010]. Adjacent chains are linked to each other through PO4 and PO3(OH) tetrahedra, leading to the formation of layers parallel to (100). The three-dimensional framework is formed by stacking along [100] of adjacent layers that are held together by distorted PbO8 polyhedra. Hydrogen bonds of the type O—HO involving the water molecule are very strong, while those O atoms involving the OH groups form weak bifurcated and trifurcated hydrogen bonds.

The structure of the title compound, NaK5Ni5(P2O7)4, is characterized by the presence of two crystallographically independent P2O7 groups with different conformations. The conformation of the first P2O7 group is eclipsed, whereas that of the second is staggered. All atoms are in general positions except for two nickel and one potassium ions which lie on symmetry centers. Moreover, the structure exhibits disorder of the cationic sites with one general position fully occupied equally by Na+ and Ni2+ cations. This mixed site is surrounded by five O atoms forming a square-based pyramid. The crystal structure consists of edge-sharing [NiO6] octahedra forming infinite zigzag chains [Ni3O14] running parallel to [100]. Adjacent chains are connected through apices to P2O7 groups and to another [NiO6] or to a [KO6] octahedron. The resulting three-dimensional framework presents intersecting tunnels running along the [010] and [001] directions in which the seven- and nine-coordinated potassium cations are located. The crystal structure of this new phosphate represents a new structural type.

The title compound, Pb2Mn3(HPO4)2(PO4)2, was synthesized by a hydrothermal method. All atoms are in general positions except for one Mn atom which is located on an inversion center. The framework of the structure is built up from PO4 tetrahedra and two types of MnO6 octahedra, one almost ideal and the other very distorted with one very long Mn—O bond [2.610 (4) Å compared an average of 2.161 Å for the other bonds]. The centrosymetric octahedron is linked to two distorted MnO6 octahedra by an edge common, forming infinite zigzag Mn3O14 chains running along the b axis. Adjacent chains are linked by PO4 and PO3(OH) tetrahedra through vertices or by edge sharing, forming sheets perpendicular to [100]. The Pb2+ cations are sandwiched between the layers and ensure the cohesion of the crystal structure. O—HO hydrogen bonding between the layers is also observed.

2,5-Bis(pyridin-2-yl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole (denoted L) has been found to act as a bidentate ligand in the monomeric title complex, [Cu(CF3O3S)(C12H8N4S)2(H2O)](CF3O3S). The complex shows a distorted octahedrally coordinated copper(II) cation which is linked to two thiadiazole ligands, one water molecule and one trifluoromethanesulfonate anion. The second trifluoromethanesulfonate anion does not coordinate the copper(II) cation. Each thiadiazole ligand uses one pyridyl and one thiadiazole N atom for the coordination of copper. The N atom of the second non-coordinating pyridyl substituent is found on the same side of the 1,3,4-thiadiazole ring as the S atom. The trifluoromethanesulfonate ions are involved in a three-dimensional network of O—HO hydrogen bonds. C—HN interactions also occur.

The title compound, C25H33ClN2O5, was synthesized from 9α-hydroxyparthenolide (9α-hydroxy-4,8-dimethyl-12-methylene-3,14-dioxatricyclo[9.3.0.02,4]tetradec-7-en-13-one), which was isolated from the chloroform extract of the aerial parts of Anvillea radiata. The molecule is built up from fused five- and ten-membered rings with two additional epoxy ring systems and a chlorophenylpiperazine group as a substituent. The ten-membered ring adopts an approximate chair–chair conformation, while the piperazine ring displays a chair conformation and the five-membered ring shows an envelope conformation with the C atom closest to the hydroxy group forming the flap. The molecular conformation is stabilized by an intramolecular O—HN hydrogen bond between the hydroxy group and a piperazine N atom. The crystal structure is stabilized by weak C—HO interactions.

The molecular conformation is stabilized by an O—HN hydrogen bond, which generates an S(7) loop, and the crystal structure features weak C—HO interactions.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Zn(HPO4)(C2H3N3)]n, contains one Zn2+ cation, one (HPO4)2− anion and a 1,2,4 triazole ligand. The Zn2+ cation is coordinated in a quite regular tetrahedral geometry by O atoms from three phosphate groups and a tertiary N atom from the triazole ring. Each phosphate anion is connected to three ZnII cations, leading to a series of corrugated organic–inorganic layers parallel to the ac plane. The overall structure involves stacking of complex hybrid organic–inorganic layers along the b axis. Cohesion in the crystal is ensured by an infinite three-dimensional network of N—HO and O—HO hydrogen bonds between the phosphate groups and the triazole ligands.
