Crystal structures of three salts of the tri­phenylsulfonium ion

The crystal structures of three salts of tri­phenyl­sulfonium ion are reported, namely, tri­phenyl­sulfonium triiodide (I), tri­phenyl­sulfonium perchorate (II), tri­phenyl­sulfonium hexa­fluoro­phosphate (III).

Synthesis, crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 5,5-di­phenyl-2-[2-(propan-2-yl­idene)hydrazin-1-yl]-4,5-di­hydro-1H-imidazol-4-one N,N-di­methyl­formamide hemisolvate

The asymmetric unit consists of two independent mol­ecules of the substituted imidazolone having different conformations, and one mol­ecule of solvent DMF. The two imidazolone mol­ecules are linked by N—H⋯N and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and the DMF is joined to one of these by a N—H⋯O hydrogen bond. Additional N—H⋯N and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link these groups into corrugated layers parallel to the (101) plane with the layers joined by C—H⋯π (ring) inter­actions.

Crystal structure of poly[μ3-acetato-di­aqua-μ3-sulfato-cerium(III)]: serendipidous synthesis of a layered coordination polymer exhibiting inter­layer O—H⋯O hydrogen bonding

In the crystal structure of the title compound, the CeIII cations are ninefold coordinated and linked into chains via the acetate anions and are further connected into layers by the sulfate dianions.

(2,9-Di­methyl-1,10-phenanthroline)bis­[2-(pyridin-2-yl)phen­yl]iridium(III) hexa­fluoro­phosphate and (2,9-di­methyl-1,10-phenanthroline)bis­[5-methyl-2-(pyridin-2-yl)phen­yl]iridium(III) hexa­fluoro­phosphate–di­ethyl ether–aceto­nitrile (1/0.61/0.78)

The title compounds exhibit Ir—C and Ir—N bond lengths typical of cyclo­metallated iridium compounds with phenyl­pyridine ligands. Methyl­ation of the phenanthroline ligand leads to longer Ir—N bond lengths compared to the unmethyl­ated analog.
