Characterization and crystal structure of cadmium(II) halide complexes with amino acids and their derivatives: VII. Crystal structures of aquadibromo(3-aminopropanoic acid)cadmium(II), dichloro(4-aminobutanoic acid)cadmium(II), diaquabis(aminohexanoic acid)cadmium(II) tetrachlorocadmium(II), and dibromo(azetidine-3-carboxylic acid)cadmium(II).

Seven cadmium complexes: [CdX2(Hapro)(H2O)n] (X: Cl(1), Br(2)), [CdX2(Hgaba)] (X: Cl(3), Br(4)), [Cd(Hahex)2(H2O)2][CdCl4] (5), and [CdX2(Haze-3)](H2O)n (X: Cl(6), Br(7)) have been prepared and investigated by means of IR and FT Raman spectra. The crystal and molecular structures of 2, 3, 5 and 7 were determined by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction method. In complex 2, the cadmium atom is in a distorted octahedral geometry, ligated by two carboxyl oxygen atoms of Hapro, a water molecule, and three bromine atoms; one is terminal and each of the other two is bridging two cadmium atoms to make a polymer.

Spontaneous resolution of binary copper(II) complexes with racemic dipeptides: crystal structures of glycyl-L-alpha-amino-n-butyrato copper(II) monohydrate, glycyl-D-valinato copper(II) hemihydrate, and glycyl-L-valinato copper(II) hemihydrate.

Copper(II) complexes with glycyl-DL-alpha-amino-n-butyric acid (H2gly-DL-but), glycyl-DL-valine (H2gly-DL-val), glycyl-DL-norleucine (H2gly-DL-norleu), glycyl-DL-threonine (H2gly-DL-thr), glycyl-DL-serine (H2gly-DL-ser), glycyl-DL-phenylalanine (H2gly-DL-phe), and glycyl-L-valine (H2gly-L-val), have been prepared and characterized by IR, powder diffuse reflection, CD and ORD spectra, and magnetic susceptibility measurements, and by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal structures of the copper complex with H2gly-DL-but, the copper complex with H2gly-DL-val, and [Cu(gly-L-val)]n.0.

Characterization and crystal structure of cadmium(II) halide complexes with amino acids and their derivatives VI. The comparison of crystal structures of cadmium(II) halide complexes with three kinds of piperidine carboxylic acids.

Six cadmium(II) halide complexes with dl-piperidine-2-carboxylic acid (DL-Hpipe-2), dl-piperidine-3-carboxylic acid (DL-Hpipe-3), and piperidine-4-carboxylic acid (Hpipe-4), have been prepared and characterized by means of IR and Raman spectra and thermal analysis. The crystal structures of [CdCl2(DL-Hpipe-2)(H2O)], [CdBr2(DL-Hpipe-3)], and [CdCl2(Hpipe-4)] have been determined by X-ray diffraction. These three complexes have one-dimensional polymer structures bridged by halide atoms.
