Potassium carbamoyldicyanomethanide

The crystal structure of potassium carbamoyldicyano-methanide was investigated. The K atoms were coordinated to four nitrile N atoms and two carbonyl O atoms in a distorted trigonal prismatic fashion, with two further N atoms semicoordinated through the centers of two prism side faces. This coordination led to the formation of mixed anion-cation sheets parallel to the ab plane, which were joined together via hydrogen-bonding interactions. The results show that that the carbamoyldicyanomethanide anion is potentially useful for the formation of transition metal coordination polymers.

Cyano-, Nitro-, and Alkoxycarbonyl-Activated Observable Stable Enols of Carboxylic Acid Amides

A search for the enol structures of several amides YY′CHCONHPh with Y,Y′ = electron-withdrawing groups (EWGs) was conducted. When Y = CN, Y′ = CO2Me the solid structure is that of the enol (8b) MeO2CC(CN)=C(OH)NHPh, whereas in soluti
