The synthesis of the triarylphosphine, P(p-C6H4SF5)3 containing a SF5 group, has been achieved. The experimental and theoretical studies showed that P(p-C6H4SF5)3 is a weaker σ-donor when compared with other substituted triarylphosphines, which is consistent with the electron-withdrawing effect of the SF5 moiety. The studies also revealed a moderate air stability of the phosphine. The σ-donor capabilities of P(p-C6H4SF5)3 were estimated from the phosphorus-selenium coupling constant in SeP(p-C6H4SF5)3 and by DFT calculations. The behavior of P(p-C6H4SF5)3 as ligand has been investigated by the synthesis of the iridium and rhodium complexes [MCl(COD){P(p-C6H4SF5)3}], [MCl(CO)2{P(p-C6H4SF5)3}2] (M = Ir, Rh), or [Rh(µ-Cl)(COE){P(p-C6H4SF5)3}]2, and the molecular structures of [IrCl(COD){P(p-C6H4SF5)3}] and [Rh(µ-Cl)(COE){P(p-C6H4SF5)3}]2 were determined by single X-ray diffraction. The structures revealed a slightly larger cone angle for P(p-C6H4SF5)3 when compared to other para-substituted triarylphosphines.

AbstractSingle crystal X-ray diffraction experiments onVolumina of the unit cell were determined to 13.1 GPa, by combining the data with data taken from the literature; the bulk modulus and pressure derivative calculate to 38.7(3) GPa and 5.2(1) respectively according to a Birch-Murnaghan equation of state.Intensity data were collected at 10.9(1), 12.0(1), 12.1(1), 12.6(1) and 13.1(1) GPa. From the five intensity data sets, one was collected using synchrotron radiation at HASYLAB/DESY and the other four using a conventional X-ray tube. Results show that the SiOIn addition to the five intensity data sets collected, X-ray diffraction experiments were carried out up to 19.3 GPa in order to address the question of when the structure undergoes amorphization. It was observed that up to 19.3 GPa, no pressure-induced amorphization takes place. This result is in agreement with studies carried out on powder quartz and theoretical studies.

The [PF6]− salt of E-tetraethyl-l,4-diaminobut-2-ene has been synthesized and the crystal structure determined. The experimental electronic charge distribution has been obtained by fitting a multipole model to low-temperature, high-resolution, single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. A high-level ab initio molecular orbital calculation has also been performed for the cation, which is used as an antifungal agent. Both experimental and theoretical Laplacian distributions display maxima only at the bond critical points. This correlates with a calculated electrostatic potential which is positive at all points.

The uncatalyzed reaction of hydrogen peroxide with (E)-3-[3-(2-hydroxyaryl)-3-oxoprop-1-en-1-yl]chromones resulted in a regio­selective epoxidation of the chromone intracyclic C(2)=C(3) double bond to afford unique isomeric (E)-7a-[3-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-3-oxoprop-1-en-1-yl]-1aH-oxireno[2,3-b]chromen-7(7aH)-ones in high yields. 2D NMR and single-crystal X-ray diffraction were used to elucidate the structures of the chromanone epoxides. Density functional theoretical studies demonstrated a high electrophilicity of the starting chromones.

The structural characterisation of bis(8-sulfanylquinolinium) hexachloridostannate(iv) (2) is reported and the variable reaction behaviour of this compound in different solvents has been explored. In particular, attempted recrystallization of 2 from chloroform and dichloromethane affords two polymorphs of cis-dichloridobis(8-quinolinethiolato)tin(iv), 3m and 3t, respectively. Attempted recrystallization of 2 from methanol gives crystals of 8,8′-dithiodiquinolinium hexachloridostannate(iv) 4. When 2 is dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide in the presence of air, it undergoes oxidation to afford diquinolinyl-8,8′-disulfide 5. The molecular structures of the isolated compounds 2–4 are unambiguously authenticated by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The electronic structure properties of all the isolated compounds 2–4 are thoroughly studied by DFT calculations.

Two novel europium(III) complexes, a monomer and a homodimer, with 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-4,4,4-trifluoro-1,3-butanedione (Hcbtfa) and 5-chloro-1,10-phenanthroline (cphen) ligands, formulated as [Eu(cbtfa)3(cphen)] and [Eu2(cbtfa)4(cphen)2(CH3O)2], have been synthesized. Their structures have been elucidated by X-ray diffraction and their absorption and emission properties have been studied in the solid state. The experimental data has then been used to test the recently released LUMPAC software, a promising tool which can facilitate the design of more efficient lanthanide light-conversion molecular devices by combining ground state geometry, excited state energy, and luminescent properties calculations.

Uniaxial compression tests and hydrostatic tests at pressures up to 27 kbars have been performed to determine operating slip systems in single crystal and polycrystal1ine beryllium. A recent study has been made of wave propagation in single crystal beryllium by shock loading to selectively activate various slip systems, and this has been followed by a study of wave propagation and spallation in textured, polycrystal1ine beryllium. An alteration in the X-ray diffraction pattern has been noted after shock loading, but this alteration has not yet been correlated with any structural change occurring during shock loading of polycrystal1ine beryllium.This study is being conducted in an effort to characterize the effects of shock loading on textured, polycrystal1ine beryllium. Samples were fabricated from a billet of Kawecki-Berylco hot pressed HP-10 beryllium.
