Abstract

Two compounds, 7,13,16,21,24-hexaoxa-1,10-diazoniabicyclo[8.8.8]hexacosane bis(tribromide) and bis(bromodiiodide) — [H₂(Crypt-222)]²⁺·2Br ₃⁻ (I) and [H₂(Crypt-222)]²⁺·1.45(BrI₂)⁻·0.4(Br₂I)⁻·0.15 I ₃⁻ (II) — are prepared and characterized by single crystal XRD; the refinement of the second compound was more accurate. Isomorphous monoclinic structures (I, space group C2/c, Z = 4, a = 12.090, b = 15.833 Å, C = 15.732 Å, β = 95.83°; II, a = 12.548 Å, b = 16.417 Å, C = 15.748 Å, β = 94.53°) are solved by a direct method and refined in the anisotropic full-matrix approximation to R = 0.057 (I) and 0.044 (II) using all 2635 (I) and 2852 (II) measured independent reflections (automated CAD-4 diffractometer, λMoK _α). In the structures of I and II one of the trihalide anions sits at the inversion center i(000), and the second trihalide anion and the dication [H₂(Crypt-222)]²⁺ are situated at crystallographic axis 2. In the structure of II iodine is located in the center of trihalide anions, while the terminal atoms are disordered and are represented by a statistical combination of iodine and bromine atoms.
