    (S)-Alanine ethyl ester tetra­cyanidoborate, (C5H12NO)[B(CN)4]
    (Chester : IUCr, 2021) Peppel, T.; Köckerling, M.
    The title mol­ecular salt, C5H12NO+·C4BN4− or (C5H12NO)[B(CN)4], was obtained as single crystals by slow evaporation of a solution of the compound in aceto­nitrile over several weeks. The asymmetric unit contains two (S)-alanine ethyl ester cations and two tetra­cyanidoborate anions, which are linked by N—H...N hydrogen bonds. The compound exhibits a relatively low melting point of 110°C and shows a solid–solid phase transition near room temperature (Ts–s = 29°C) on the basis of DSC measurements.

    1-Butyl-3-methyl­imidazolium tri­bromido­(tri­phenyl­phosphane-κP)nickelate(II) butan-1-ol hemisolvate
    (Chester : IUCr, 2021) Peppel, T.; Köckerling, M.
    The solvated title salt, (C8H15N2)[NiBr3(P(C6H5)3)]·0.5C4H10O, was obtained in the form of single crystals directly from the reaction mixture. The mol­ecular structure consists of separated 1-butyl-3-methyl­imidazolium cations, tri­bromido­(tri­phenyl­phosphane)nickelate(II) anions and half a solvent mol­ecule of 1-butanol, all connected via multiple hydrogen contacts to form a three-dimensional network. The co-crystallized 1-butanol mol­ecule is disordered and adopts two orientations. The central C—C bonds of both orientations are located on an inversion centre (Wyckoff site 2b of space group P21/n). Thereby, each orientation has again two orientations with the OH group being located either on one or the other side of the C4 alkyl chain. The dried solvent-free compound exhibits a relatively low melting point (m.p. = 412 K).
