AbstractThe γ-region of the Mn–Al phase diagram between 45 and 70 at.% Al was re-investigated by a combination of powder and single crystal X-ray diffraction as well as EDS analysis to establish the distribution of Mn and Al atoms. Single crystals of γ-Mn

Mo3Sb7 was synthesized by heating the elements in the stoichiometric ratio in a sealed silica tube at 700 °C. The title compounds AδMo3Sb7 (A = Mg, Ni, Cu) were prepared by annealing prereacted Mo3Sb7 with different amounts of A in powder form between 500 and 750 °C. According to our single-crystal structure studies, the A atoms can be intercalated in small amounts into the cubic voids of the Mo3Sb7 structure without noticeable symmetry changes (space group Im[Formula: see text]m). The different cations cause different band-gap decreases that depend on the element as well as its concentration.Key words: thermoelectrics, band-gap tuning, intercalation, antimonide, electronic structure.

The crystal structure of 1-(1H-pyrazol-4-yl)ethanone (commonly known as 4-acetylpyrazole; C5H6N2O) was determined from single-crystal X-ray data at 173 K: monoclinic, space group P21/n (no. 14), a = 3.865(1), b = 5.155(1), c = 26.105(8) Å, β = 91.13(1)°, V = 520.0(2) Å3 and Z = 4. The adjacent molecules assemble into a wave-like ribbon structure in the solid state, linked by strong intermolecular N-H...N hydrogen bonds between the pyrazole rings and a weak C-H...O=C hydrogen bond involving the carbonyl group. The ribbons are stacked in the solid state via weak π interactions between the pyrazole rings.

Cr3C2 was obtained from arc-melting of pellets made of carbon and chromium. The structure of Cr3C2 was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction (Pnma, Z = 4, a = 553.99(6), b = 283.27(4), c = 1149.4(1) pm, R1 = 0.019 and wR2 = 0.037 for all collected reflections). The crystal structure contains isolated carbon atoms which reside inside of trigonal prismatic voids of metal atoms. The compound exhibits temperature independent paramagnetism. The electronic structure of Cr3C2 has been investigated using extended Hückel calculations.

The crystal structures of the rare-earth members of the series RMo5O8 (R = Ce to Eu) have been investigated and compared with those of the La and Gd members previously published in order to understand the influences of the size and the charge of the cation on the different Mo—Mo bonds. The RMo5O8 compounds crystallize in the monoclinic space group P21/c. Their crystal structure is characterized by bioctahedral Mo10 clusters forming extended chains. The results of our single-crystal studies show that the modification of charge predominantly affects the Mo—Mo bonds between the Mo10 clusters and, to a lesser extent, the intra-cluster distances, while the cationic size induces only small variations. Theoretical investigations confirm this statement and allow the understanding of the bonding mode in these compounds.
