Six phenyl-flanked benzodipyrrolidone-based copolymers are designed, synthesised and characterised. Three exhibit backbone in-plane curvature or out-of-plane twisting, while the other three remain planar and co-linear. While the first three appear less crystalline by X-ray diffraction, they afford a smoother solid-state film surface topology and increased electron mobility in top-gate, bottom-contact OFETs.

The oxypentafluorouranates(VI) MUOF5, where M = NH4, K, Rb, Cs, have been synthetized from reaction of UOF4 with the ammonium or corresponding alkali metal fluoride in liquid SO2. According to X-ray diffraction, Raman and infrared spectroscopy, and from an isomorphism with the corresponding hexafluorouranates(V) MUF6, two different environments around the uranium atom are observed. In CsUOF5 the five fluorine atoms and the oxygen around the uranium result in a pseudo-octahedral surrounding whereas for the other complexes (M = NH4, K, Rb) each uranium is surrounded by eight light atoms forming a dodecahedron. In this structure the dodecahedra are linked together by fluorine atoms to form infinite chains. The UOF5− ion has been characterized by vibrational spectroscopy in the solid state. The proposed assignment, which was made with the assumption of a C4v symmetry of the UOF5− ion, was confirmed by a force constant calculation. From these data and contrary to the values reported for comparable oxypentafluoroanions, the axial fluorine is found to be less ionic than the equatorial ones.

AbstractA systematic survey of phase formation in the Na2O-ZrO2-SiO2 system has revealed inconsistencies in the number and identity of ternary phases, and of their X-ray powder data. The phases Na2ZrSiO5, Na4Zr2Si3O12, Na2ZrSi2O7 and Na2ZrSi4O11 were prepared by solid-state reaction and their experimental X-ray diffraction patterns measured. Calculated X-ray diffraction patterns were generated by computer, using published crystallographic data, and critically compared with the experimentally observed values. The unit-cell constants were redefined to a greater accuracy than the presently accepted values published in the Powder Diffraction File. Only Na4Zr2Si3O12 produced an X-ray diffraction pattern which agreed with that previously published; those from the other phases were significantly different in both the intensities and positions of the reflections. Data for synthetic Na2ZrSi4O11 identical to the mineral vlasovite are reported.

Powder x-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman evidence are presented for the formation of crystalline diamond in the “hydrothermal” pressure-temperature regime 1–5 kbars, <1000 °C. Two different methods appear to enable diamond to nucleate and grow. One—a Low Pressure Solid-State Source (LPSSS) route—utilizes special solid precursors, especially low temperature glassy carbon (GC-500), with very fine diamond seeds in sealed gold capsules with H2O at, say, 800 °C and 1 kbar. The other includes pyrolysis of highly selected organic solid/liquid precursors (halogenated aliphatics such as iodoform) onto similar diamond seeds. In all the cases, powder x-ray diffraction evidence shows a marked increase of the diamond XRD peaks, likewise the Raman spectrum shows a strong increase of the 1331 cm−1 line. However, the crystals apparently are too small to be seen in the SEM. TEM diffraction data, on the other hand, seem to lend support to the possibility of all the grown diamonds being very small.

The patterns adopted in the solid state structures of over 300 cyclic NH carboximides as determined by X-ray diffraction are reviewed. While the analysis shows that the majority of these fit into just a few common patterns, a significant number exhibit more complex and interesting patterns involving the other functional groups present in addition to the cyclic imide.

The crystal and molecular structures of the phosphinomethyl-substituted lithium cyclopentadienides [Li(tmeda)][R2PCMe2C5H4], R = Ph (1), Me (2) (tmeda = N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine) were determined as their tmeda adducts on the basis of low temperature single crystal X-ray diffraction. (Crystal data: 1: monoclinic, space group P21/n, a = 8.511(5), b = 11.936(2), c = 24.20(1) Å, β = 90.02(3)°, Z = 4.2: monoclinic, space group P21/n, a = 10.887(2), b = 13.326(2), c = 13.131(2) Å, β= 92.872(6)°, Z = 4). In both compounds lithium has a slightly distorted 17 coordination to the cyclopentadienide (Cp) ring. There are no interactions between lithium and the phosphine donors in the solid state as the phosphinomethyl substituents are oriented to the other side of the Cp ring for steric reasons. The isopropene-substituted lithium cyclopentadienide, which is formed as a by-product in the synthesis of phosphinomethyl cyclopentadienides containing a CMe2 bridge, was also structurally characterized as its tmeda adduct [Li(tmeda)][H2C=CMeC5H4] (3). (Crystal data: monoclinic, P21/c, a = 8.00(2), b = 16.701(2), c = 11.942(6) Å, β= 112.68(7)°, Z = 4). As in 1 and 2, lithium is η5 -coordinated to the Cp ring, and there is no interaction of the functional group (isopropene) with lithium.

Sr2B5O9Cl:Eu phosphor with high efficient luminescent material was synthesized by solid-state reaction method in air. The result of X-ray diffraction showed that the pure Sr2B5O9Cl phase forms at 900°C. The emission spectrum of Sr2B5O9Cl:Eu under 254nm excitation contained two parts. One part was constituted by a strong peak located at 417nm due to the d→f transition of Eu2+ ion, and the other part contained five weak peaks between 580-660nm due to the 5D0→7FJ(J=1,2,3) of Eu3+ ion. The infrared spectrum revealed that both BO3 unites and BO4 unites coexisted in the resultant product. The Eu2+ was surrounded and protected from being oxidized by the BO4 unites. Both red and blue visible lights were observed under ultraviolet excitation as a result of the coexistence of Eu2+ ion and Eu3+ ion.

4-CF3—C6H4—CN3S2, 1, forms symmetrical sulfur-bound adducts with norbornene (NBE), norbornadiene (NBD), and 1-heptene (C7H14), which were studied by 1H, 13C, COSY-45, and HETCORR NMR. 1•NBE exists in solution in a single isomeric form which corresponds to that found in the solid state for 4-CH3O—C6H4—CN3S2•NBE by single-crystal X-ray diffraction: orthorhombic, P212121 with Z = 4, a = 10.224(3), b = 10.369(5), c = 14.075(5). R = 0.0475 and Rw = 0.0492 for 634 data. 1•NBD exists in solution in two isomeric forms which are not interchangeable. One of these corresponds to that found in the NBE adduct, i.e. exo addition; the other is the first example of endo addition. Two bis adducts of stoichiometry NBD•21 have been prepared and separated. They are isomers exhibiting exo-exo and exo-endo addition. The structure of the latter was confirmed by X-ray diffraction: orthorhombic, Pcab with Z = 8, a = 7.816(2), b = 17.264(3), c = 36.842(5). R = 0.068 and Rw = 0.106 for 1506 data. 1•C7H14 exists as a mixture of syn and anti isomers. NMR structure parameters derived here have been applied to published data on over 15 thiazene NBE and NBD adducts.

Two ferrocenyl-substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazoles, 2-ferrocenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole (1) and 2,5-diferrocenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole (2), have been prepared from the corresponding hydrazides, (ferrocenecarbonyl)hydrazine (3) and 1,2-bis(ferrocenecarbonyl)hydrazine (4), and characterized by conventional spectroscopic methods (IR, NMR, MS) and elemental analyses. The solid-state structures of 1, 2 and 4 have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The redox behavior of 1 and 2 was studied by electrochemical methods. Compound 1 underwent a reversible one-electron oxidation attributed to the ferrocene/ ferrocenium couple (Eo′ = +0.28 V vs ferrocene/ferrocenium). On the other hand, compound 2 showed two closely separated anodic waves corresponding to two consecutive redox changes, indicating some degree of electronic communication between the ferrocenyl moieties in positions 2 and 5 at the 1,3,4-oxadiazole ring.

The texture of the Ni monostanogermanide phase on a Ge(100) substrate was evaluated during a solid-state reaction, with a focus on the impact of Sn addition. Complementary X-ray diffraction analyses involving in situ X-ray diffraction, in-plane reciprocal space maps (RSMs) and pole figures were used to that end. A sequential growth of the phases for the Ni/Ge(Sn) system was found. An Ni-rich phase formed first, followed by the NiGe(Sn) phase. The NiGe and NiGe(Sn) layers were polycrystalline with different out-of-plane orientations. The number of out-of-plane diffraction peaks decreased with the Sn content, while the preferred orientation changed. In-plane RSM analyses confirmed these results. Sn addition modified the out-of-plane and in-plane orientations. Pole figure analysis revealed that numerous epitaxial texture components were present for the Ni/Ge system, while Sn addition reduced the number of epitaxial texture components. On the other hand, segregated Sn crystallized with an epitaxial alignment with the Ge substrate underneath.

The structural unit of solid state collagen complexes has been reported by Porter and Vanamee via EM and by Cowan, North and Randall via x-ray diffraction to be an ellipsoidal unit of 210-270 A. length by 50-100 A. diameter. It subsequently was independently demonstrated by us in dog tendon, dermis, and induced complexes. Its detailed morphologic, dimensional and molecular weight (MW) aspects have now been determined. It is pear-shaped in long profile with m diameters of 57 and 108 A. and m length of 263 A. (Fig. 1, tendon, KMnO4 fixation, Na-tungstate; Fig. 2a, schematic of unit in long, C, and x-sectional profiles of its thin, xB, and bulbous, xA portions; Fig. 2b, tendon essentially unmodified by ether and 0.4 N NaOH treatment, Na-tungstate). The unit consists of a uniquely coild cable, c, of ṁ 22.9 A. diameter and length of 2580-3316 A. The cable consists of three 2nd-strands, s, each of m 10.6 A.
