Crystallographic information files of all the crystal structures well described in the dissertation titled "Structures and solid-state fluorescence of coordination compounds of metal halides and naphthalimide derivatives".  The complexes are formed from a combination of imnap and CoCl2, CoBr2, CuBr2, ZnBr2, ZnI2, CdBr2, CdI2, HgBr2 or HgI2 and they display a distorted tetrahedral geometry, with no solvent incorporated into the structures. The combination of imnap and CuCl2 results in a complex with a severely distorted tetrahedral geometry. When self-assembled from dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), ten new complexes are formed from the combinations of imnap and CoCl2, CuCl2, CuBr2, ZnCl2, ZnBr2, CdCl2, CdBr2, HgCl2, HgBr2 or HgI2, all exhibiting tetrahedral geometries, with DMSO molecules incorporated into the crystal structures.
