Crystal structure of bromido-fac-tricarbon-yl[5-(3,4,5-tri-meth-oxy-phen-yl)-3-(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-1,2,4-triazole-κ2N2,N3]rhenium(I) methanol monosolvate.

In the title compound, [ReBr(C16H16N4O3)(CO)3]·CH3OH, the ReI atom adopts a distorted octa-hedral coordination sphere with a facial arrangement of the three carbonyl ligands. Two N atoms of the chelating 5-(3,4,5-tri-meth-oxy-phen-yl)-3-(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-1,2,4-triazole ligand and two carbonyl ligands define the equatorial plane of the complex, with the third carbonyl ligand and the bromide ligand in axial positions. Conventional hydrogen bonds including the methanol solvent mol-ecules assemble the complex mol-ecules through mutual N-H⋯O-H⋯Br links [N⋯O = 2.703 (3) Šand O⋯Br = 3.255 (2) Å] into centrosymmetric dimers, whereas weaker C-H⋯O and C-H⋯Br hydrogen bonds [C⋯O = 3.215 (3)-3.390 (4) Šand C⋯Br = 3.927 (3) Å] connect the dimers into double layers parallel to the (111) plane.

Crystal structure of fac-aquatricarbonyl[(S)-valin-ato-κ(2) N,O]-rhenium(I).

In the mol-ecule of the title compound, [Re(C5H10NO2)(CO)3(H2O)], the Re(I) atom adopts a distorted octa-hedral coordination sphere defined by one aqua and three carbonyl ligands as well as one amino N and one carboxyl-ate O atom of the chelating valinate anion. The carbonyl ligands are arranged in a fac-configuration around the Re(I) ion. In the crystal, an intricate hydrogen-bonding system under participation of two O-H, two N-H and one C-H donor groups and the carboxyl-ate and carbonyl O atoms as acceptor groups contribute to the formation of a three-dimensional supra-molecular network.
