Abstract:
Three salts containing the 4-(4-fluoro-phen-yl)piperazin-1-ium cation have been prepared and structurally characterized. In 4-(4-fluoro-phen-yl)piperazin-1-ium 2-hy-droxy-3,5-di-nitro-benzoate, C10H14FN2 +·C7H3N2O7 -, (I), the anion contains an intra-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bond, and it has a structure similar to that of the picrate ion. The cations and anions are linked into [001] chains of rings by a combination of two three-centre N-H⋯(O)2 hydrogen bonds. The anion in 4-(4-fluoro-phen-yl)piperazin-1-ium hydrogen oxalate, C10H14FN2 +·C2HO4 -, (II), is planar, and the cations and anions are linked into (100) sheets by multiple hydrogen bonds including two-centre N-H⋯O, three-centre N-H⋯(O)2, O-H⋯O, C-H⋯O and C-H⋯π(arene) types. In 4-(4-fluoro-phen-yl)piperazin-1-ium hydrogen (2R,3R)-tartrate monohydrate, C10H14FN2 +·C4H5O6 -·H2O, (III), the anion exhibits an approximate non-crystallographic twofold rotation symmetry with anti-periplanar carboxyl groups. A combination of eight hydrogen bonds, encompassing two- and three-centre N-H⋯O systems, O-H⋯O and C-H⋯π(arene) types, link the independent components into a three-dimensional framework. Comparisons are made with some related structures.

Most monatomic ions behave as charged spheres, and their attraction for ions of opposite charge is the same in every direction. Consequently, stable structures for ionic compounds result (1) when ions of one charge are surrounded by as many ions as possible of the opposite...

02:34Structural Isomerism
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula. Structural isomerism of coordination compounds can be divided into two subcategories, the linkage isomers and coordination-sphere isomers.
Linkage isomers occur when the coordination compound contains a ligand that can bind to the transition metal center through two different atoms. For example, the CN− ligand can bind through the carbon atom or through the nitrogen atom. Similarly, SCN− can...
