Single crystals of rubidium tetrafluoridobromate(III), RbBrF4, were grown by melting and recrystallizing RbBrF4 from its melt. This is the first determination of the crystal structure of RbBrF4 using single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. We confirmed that the structure contains square-planar [BrF4]− anions and rubidium cations that are coordinated by F atoms in a square-antiprismatic manner. The compound crystallizes in the KBrF4 structure type. Atomic coordinates and bond lengths and angles were determined with higher precision than in a previous report based on powder X-ray diffraction data [Ivlev et al. (2015). Z. Anorg. Allg. Chem. 641, 2593–2598].

The structure of the layered noncentrosymmetric titanosilicate AM-1 (also known as JDF-L1, disodium titanium tetrasilicate dihydrate), Na4Ti2Si8O22·4H2O, grown as small single crystals without the use of organics, has been refined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. The H atom has been located for the first time, and the hydrogen-bonding scheme is also characterized by IR and Raman spectroscopy. All atoms are in general positions except for the Na, the Ti, one Ti-bound O, one Si-bound O and the water O atoms (site symmetries 2, 4, 4, 2 and 2, respectively).

Single crystals and powder samples of Ba4ZnTi11O27 and Ba2ZnTi5O13 have been synthesized and studied using single-crystal X-ray precession photographs and X-ray powder diffraction. Unit cell dimensions were calculated from a least-squares refinement with a final maximum Δ2θ of 0.05°. Both phases were found to have monoclinic cells, space group C2/m. The refined lattice parameters for the Ba4ZnTi11O27 compound are a= 19.8687(8) Å, b=11.4674(5) Å, c=9.9184(4) Å, β= 109.223(4)°, and Z=4. The refined lattice parameters for the Ba2ZnTi5O13 compound are a= 15.2822(7) Å, b=3.8977(1) Å, c=9.1398(3) Å, β=98.769(4)°, and Z=2.

Vapours of p-benzoquinone (BQ) have been found to react with solid 2,4,5-trichlorophenol (TCP). The reaction product (BQ-TCP) separated in the form of monoclinic single crystals, the structure of which was determined by X-ray diffraction to reveal that the two molecules are linked by a single hydrogen bond between the carbonyl oxygen of BQ and the phenolic hydrogen of TCP.

Dark red single crystals of the new phases Ba3YRu0.73(2)Al1.27(2)O8 and Ba5Y2Ru1.52(2)Al1.47(2)O13.5 have been grown from powder mixtures of BaCO3, Y2O3, Al2O3, and RuO2 . The compositions given in the formulas result from the refinements of the crystal structures based on single crystal X-ray diffraction data (hexagonal P63/mmc (No. 194), Z = 2, Ba3 YRu0.73(2)Al1.27(2)O8: a = 5.871(1), c = 14.633(3) Å , R1 = 0.035, wR2 = 0.069 and Ba5Y2Ru1.52(2)Al1.47(2)O13.5: a = 5.907(1), c = 24.556(5) Å, R1 = 0.057, wR2 = 0.114). Ba3YRu0.73(2)Al1.27(2)O8 crystallizes in a 6H perovskite structure, Ba5Y2Ru1.52(2)Al1.47(2)O13.5 has been characterized as a 10H Perovskite. Due to similar spatial extensions of (Ru2O9) facesharing pairs of octahedra and (Al2O7) vertex-sharing pairs of tetrahedra, both structures show partial mutual substitution of these units. Consequently, the title compounds may be written as Ba3Y(Ru2O9)1−x(Al2O7)x, x = 0.64(1) and Ba5Y2RuO6(Ru2O9)1−x(Al2O7)x, x = 0.74(1). This interpretation is supported by the results of electron probe microanalysis using wavelength-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. An oxidation state of Ru close to +5 for the (Ru2O9) units, as can be derived from the distances d(Ru-Ru), additionally leads to similar charges of both the (Ru2O9) and the (Al2O7) units.

When crystals of 9-tricyclo[4.4.1.0]undecalyl-4-(carbomethoxy)phenyl ketone (1) were allowed to stand in the dark for extended periods of time at room temperature, the compound underwent a thermal reaction — the enolene rearrangement — to afford enol 2. The crystals remained transparent and appeared unchanged in shape as the reaction proceeded. X-ray diffraction data were collected on single crystals containing 17%, 25%, 66%, and 100% of the enol. The crystal structure of a simple enol was obtained via this novel single-crystal-to-single-crystal enolene rearrangement.Key words: single crystal, thermal, rearrangement, enol, enolene.

Abstract 2-amino-5-nitropyridine 4-chlorobenzoic acid (1:1) (2A5NP4CBA), a potentially useful organic adduct compound has been synthesized and grown as optically transparent single crystals by conventional slow evaporation solution technique (SEST) for the first time in the literature. The formation of the new crystalline material was confirmed by the single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SXRD) analysis and the crystal structure of the grown crystal was found to be monoclinic. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrum has been recorded by the KBr pellet technique to determine the various vibrational functional groups in the title material. The powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and high-resolution X-ray diffraction (HRXRD) analyses have been carried out and the obtained results reveal that the grown crystal has a single-phase and is free from structural grain boundaries. The obtained less value (32 arc-s) of full width at half maximum (FWHM) for (001) plane indicates the excellent crystalline quality of the title 2A5NP4CBA single crystal. The linear optical properties were evaluated by the UV-vis-NIR absorption and transmittance analyses and the obtained results reveal that the grown crystal possesses more than 70% of optical transmittance window with the cut-off edge at 419 nm. The thermal analysis discloses that the grown crystal possesses good thermal stability of about 187°C. To determine the appropriateness of the grown crystal for the high-power laser application, laser damage threshold (LDT) analysis has been carried out by Nd: YAG laser of a wavelength of 1064 nm. The third-order nonlinear optical coefficients such as nonlinear absorption (β), nonlinear refraction (n 2 ) and nonlinear susceptibility (χ (3) ) have been evaluated by utilizing the single beam Z-scan technique using a solid-state laser of wavelength 532 nm. The calculated ꭓ (3) value is found to be reasonably good compared to other organic single crystals which are reported in the literature. The optical limiting (OL) behavior of the title crystal was evaluated using a solid-state laser at 532 nm and the limiting threshold was found to be 7.8 mW/cm 2 .

The crystal structure of strontium diarsenate has been reinvestigated from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. In contrast to the previous determinations of this structure [Weilet al.(2009).Solid State Sci.11, 2111–2117; Edhokkaret al.(2012).Mater. Sci. Eng.,28, 012017] and to all isotypicA2B2O7compounds that crystallize in the space groupP41, the current redetermination revealed theP43enantiomorph of Sr2As2O7with a purity of 96.3 (8)%. The crystal structure is made up from two eclipsed As2O7diarsenate groups (symmetry 1) with characteristically longer As—O bridging bonds [1.756 (4)–1.781 (4) Å] than the terminal As—O bonds [1.636 (4)–1.679 (4) Å] and four Sr2+sites with coordination numbers ranging from seven to nine. The building units are arranged in sheets parallel to (001).

Single crystals of SrPbO3 could be prepared by oxygen-high-pressure-synthesis (PO2 > 3500 at, t = 450°C). Single crystal X-ray diffraction data confirm the space group D2h16-Pnma. SrPbO3 belongs to the orthorhombic distorted Perowskit type with a = 5.964, b = 8.320, c = 5.860 Å. The atomic positions were refined.
