The room-temperature single-crystal X-ray diffraction determined structures of the Mn(tpp)Br.C7H8, Mn(tpp)(NCO), Mn(tpp)I.C7H8, Mn(tpp)(CO2CH3).0·5C7H8, and Mn(tpp)(NCS).0·5C7H8 complexs are described. The monoclinic P21/c unit cell of Mn(tpp)(NCO) has a 14·82(1), b 17·136(5), c 14·576(5) Å, β 111·41(5)°, V 3446(3) Å3, Z 4. The refinement converged with conventional R(|F|) 0·053 for No 3199 (I > 3·0σ(I)) ‘observed’ reflections. The monoclinic P 21/m unit cell of Mn(tpp)Br.C7H8 has a 9·984(1), b 15·453(6), c 13·583(3) Å, β 103·99(2)°, V 2033(1) Å3, Z 2, R 0·039 for No 2668. The Mn(tpp)I.C7H8 structure is triclinic, P-1, with a 22·28(1), b 14·466(4), c 13·555(6) Å, α 76·32(3), β 81·74(4), γ 74·75(3)°, V 4079(3) Å3, Z 4, R 0·050 for No 9039. The triclinic P-1 crystal structures of the Mn(tpp)(CO2CH3).0·5C7H8 and Mn(tpp)(NCS).0·5C7H8 complexes are isomorphous. The Mn(tpp)(CO2CH3).0·5C7H8 structure has a 26·18(1), b 13·503(3), c 12·074(6) Å, α 66·08(4), β 81·36(4), γ 86·71(5)°, V 3858(3) Å3, Z 4, R 0·075 for No 6388. Solvate disorder, requiring a rigid body model, islargely responsible for the relatively high residuals. The Mn(tpp)(NCS).0·5C7H8 structure has a 25·442(6), b 13·746(3), c 12·182(5) Å, α 66·97(3), β 78·59(3), γ 87·90(2)°, V 3839(2) Å3, Z 4, R 0·061 for No 5506. The asymmetric units of the iodo, acetato and isothiocyanato structures each contain two crystallographically independent complex molecules that are sensitive to crystal packing forces. The metal ion displacements from the least-squares planes formed by the pyrrole nitrogen atoms are 0·299(1) and 0·274(1) Å for the Mn(tpp)(NCO) and Mn(tpp)Br.C7H8complexes, and 0·240(1) and 0·252(1), 0·281(1) and 0·278(1), and 0·243(1) and 0·244(1) Å for the independent (a) and (b) complex molecules of Mn(tpp)I.C7H8, Mn(tpp)(CO2CH3).0·5C7H8, and Mn(tpp)(NCS).0·5C7H8 respectively. The axial Mn–X bond lengths are 2·029(5) and 2·490(1) Å for the Mn(tpp)(NCO) and Mn(tpp)Br.C7H8 complexes, and 2·767(1) and 2·730(1), 2·028(5) and 2·010(5), and 2·067(6) and 2·072(5) Å for the (a) and (b) complex molecules of Mn(tpp)I.C7H8, Mn(tpp)(CO2CH3).0·5C7H8, and Mn(tpp)(NCS).0·5C7H8. One of the independent complex molecules in the Mn(tpp)(CO2CH3).0·5C7H8 structure appears to exhibit acetate coordination through a carbonyl oxygen.

The arylidene–imidazolone derivatives are a group of compounds of great interest in medicinal chemistry due to their various pharmacological actions. In order to study the possible conformations of an arylidene–imidazolone derivative, two new crystal structures were determined by X-ray diffraction, namely (Z)-5-(4-chlorobenzylidene)-2-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)-3H-imidazol-5(4H)-one, C15H17ClN4O, (6), and its salt 4-[5-(4-chlorobenzylidene)-5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-3H-imidazol-2-yl]-1-methylpiperazin-1-ium 3-{5-[4-(diethylamino)benzylidene]-4-oxo-2-thioxothiazolidin-3-yl}propionate, C15H18ClN4O+·C17H19N2O3S2 −, (7). Both compounds crystallize in the space group P\overline{1}. The basic form (6) crystallizes with two molecules in the asymmetric unit. In the acid form of (6), the N atom of the piperazine ring is protonated by proton transfer from the carboxyl group of the rhodanine acid derivative. The greatest difference in the conformations of (6) and its protonated form, (6c), is observed in the location of the arylidene–imidazolone substituent at the N atom. In the case of (6c), the position of this substituent is close to axial, while for (6), the corresponding position is intermediate between equatorial and axial. The crystal packing is dominated by a network of N—H...O hydrogen bonds. Furthermore, the crystal structures are stabilized by numerous intermolecular contacts of types C—H...N and C—H...Cl in (6), and C—H...O and C—H...S in (7). The geometry with respect to the location of the substituents at the N atoms of the piperazine ring was compared with other crystal structures possessing an N-methylpiperazine moiety.

The crystal structures of marialite (Me6) from Badakhshan, Afghanistan and meionite (Me93) from Mt. Vesuvius, Italy were obtained using synchrotron high-resolution powder X-ray diffraction (HRPXRD) data and Rietveld structure refinements. Their structures were refined in space groups I4/m and P42/n, and similar results were obtained. The Me6 sample has a formula Ca0.24Na3.37K0.24[Al3.16Si8.84O24]Cl0.84(CO3)0.15, and its unit-cell parameters are a=12.047555(7), c=7.563210(6) Å, and V=1097.751(1) Å3. The average ⟨T1-O⟩ distances are 1.599(1) Å in I4/m and 1.600(2) Å in P42/n, indicating that the T1 site contains only Si atoms. In P42/n, the average distances of ⟨T2-O⟩=1.655(2) and ⟨T3-O⟩=1.664(2) Å are distinct and are not equal to each other. However, the mean ⟨T2,3-O⟩=1.659(2) Å in P42/n and is identical to the ⟨T2′-O⟩=1.659(1) Å in I4/m. The ⟨M-O⟩ [7]=2.754(1) Å (M site is coordinated to seven framework O atoms) and M-A=2.914(1) Å; these distances are identical in both space groups. The Me93 sample has a formula of Na0.29Ca3.76[Al5.54Si6.46O24]Cl0.05(SO4)0.02(CO3)0.93, and its unit-cell parameters are a=12.19882(1), c=7.576954(8) Å, and V=1127.535(2) Å3. A similar examination of the Me93 sample also shows that both space groups give similar results; however, the C–O distance is more reasonable in P42/n than in I4/m. Refining the scapolite structure near Me0 or Me100 in I4/m forces the T2 and T3 sites (both with multiplicity 8 in P42/n) to be equivalent and form the T2′ site (with multiplicity 16 in I4/m), but ⟨T2-O⟩ is not equal to ⟨T3-O⟩ in P42/n. Using different space groups for different regions across the series implies phase transitions, which do not occur in the scapolite series.


Detailed interpretations of the X -ray diffraction patterns of fibres and sheets of 66 and 6.10 polyamides (polyhexam ethylene adipamide and sebacamide respectively) are proposed. The crystal structures of the two substances are completely analogous. Fibres of these two polyam ides usually contain two different crystalline forms, α and β, which are different packings of geometrically similar molecules; most fibres consist chiefly of the α form. In the case of the 66 polymer, fibres have been obtained in which there is no detectable proportion of the β form. Unit cell dimensions and the indices of reflexions for the α form were determined by trial, using normal fibre photographs, and were checked by using doubly oriented sheets set at different angles to the X -ray beam. The unit cell of the a form is triclinic, with a — 4·9 A, b = 5·4 A, c (fibre axis) = 17·2A, α = 48 1/2º, β = 77º, γ = 63 1/2º for the 66 polymer; a = 4·95A, b = 5·4A, c (fibre axes) = 22·4A, α = 49º, β = 76 1/2º, γ = 63 1/2º for the 6.10 polymer. One chain molecule passes through the cell in both cases. Atomic coordinates in occrystals were determined by interpretation of the relative intensities of the reflexions. The chains are planar or very nearly so; the oxygen atoms appear to lie a little off the plane of the chain. The molecules are linked by hydrogen bonds between C = 0 and NH groups, to form sheets. A simple packing of these sheets of molecules gives the α arrangement.

The crystal structures of approximants RECd6 (RE = Tb, Ho, Er, Tm and Lu) have been refined from single crystal X-ray diffraction data. This work is a continuation of a previous study of MCd6 approximants [1] in which the different types of disorder of the central Cd4 tetrahedra located in the dodecahedral cavities were examined. The structures of the title compounds are all similar to GdCd6 and disorder was observed in all these compounds. There is a correlation between the anisotropic displacement parameter and the unit cell dimension

Riociguat (Rio) is the first oral soluble guanylate cyclase stimulator to be approved for pulmonary arterial hypertension. In this study, form (II) of riociguat and three solvates with acetonitrile [form (III)],N,N-dimethylformamide [form (IV)] and ethyl acetate [form (V)] were crystallized. They were identified and characterized by differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray powder diffraction, and their crystal structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. No crystal structure has previously been reported for the known form (II) of riociguat. Crystal structure determination of Rio and its new solvates revealed that the dimericR22(14) motif is common in both structures. The crystal packing of solvates adopts channel-like patterns, whereas form (II) of riociguat adopts sheet-like patterns. Strong π–π interactions exist in the above four forms. The conformation of the riociguat in one molecule of 0.5-DMF solvate was found to be significantly different from the conformations found in the other solvates. Desolvation of the three solvates was studied by thermogravimetric analysis and X-ray diffraction, and was shown to transform them into form (I) of riociguat.

The crystal structures of difluorine derivatives of p-terphenyls (nTm) have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. For the unsymmetrical substituted compounds 2′,3′-difluoro-4-methyl-p-terphenyl (1T0, C19H14F2) and 4-ethyl-2′,3′-difluoro-4′′-methyl-p-terphenyl (1T2, C21H18F2), the crystal structure is disordered, with molecules statistically entering the crystal in up and down orientations, with full superposition of all the atoms, except for those of the terminal groups (H/methyl for 1T0 and methyl/ethyl for 1T2). For triclinic 2′,3′-difluoro-4,4′′-dimethyl-p-terphenyl (1T1, C20H16F2), with the space group P\overline{1}, the two crystallographically independent molecules have the same conformation, which is different from monoclinic 1T0 (space group C2) and 1T2 (space group C2/c). A common feature of the conformation of the three compounds is the noncoplanar twisted arrangement of the three rings of the p-terphenyl moiety. Two-dimensional (2D) Hirshfeld fingerprint plots are consistent with H...H and C...H contacts in the crystal packing. For the three compounds, the phase behaviour has been investigated by POM (Petra/Osiris/Molinspiration) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis. 1T2 is mesogenic, with enantiotropic nematic behaviour.

Crystals of diuron, N′-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-N,N-dimethylurea, C9H10Cl2N2O, were grown from ethanol at low supersaturation. The crystal faces were indexed using a two-circle optical goniometer and X-ray diffraction was used to orientate the crystal morphology with respect to the unit cell. The experimental morphologies were compared with the morphologies predicted by the BFDH (Bravais, Friedel, Donnay, Harker) and attachment energy (AE) methods and calculated from two crystal structures. Good agreement was obtained between experimental and theoretical habits, despite the fact that the crystals exhibit 27 faces belonging to 13 crystallographic forms.

Ferrocenyl amides (FB1-FB13) and their organic analogues (BZ1-BZ13) were prepared by a low-temperature condensation method. Ferrocenyl amides were synthesised using 4-ferrocenylbenzoyl chloride and ether-based amines and diamines. Benzoyl chloride was used to synthesise organic analogues by reacting with various amines. The synthesised compounds were characterised by elemental, spectroscopic (FT-IR and NMR) and single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. Crystal structures of the representative organic analogues (BZ2 and BZ6) were solved by single crystal X-ray diffraction. BZ2 crystallises in the triclinic space group P 1 ¯ with a unit cell volume of V = 1056.6(3) Å3 and with two formula units per unit cell. Whereas BZ6 assembles in the orthorhombic space group Pbca with four formula units per unit cell and a unit cell volume of V = 1354.7(2) Å3. Spectral studies confirmed the presence of amide linkages in the synthesised compound with a strong N—H·····O=C hydrogen bonding network established between amide groups of neighbouring molecular scaffolds further stabilising the molecular stacking in accordance with the archetypal crystal structures. The bioactive nature of each compound was assessed by DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) free radical scavenging activity, hydrogen peroxide scavenging activity and total antioxidant activity. Antidiabetic, anticholinesterase enzyme inhibition tests, as well as antibacterial activities, were performed showing significant biological activity for ferrocenyl amides as compared to their organic analogues.

AbstractThe crystal structures of synthetic 7 Å and 10 Å manganates, synthetic birnessite and buserite, substituted by mono- and divalent cations were investigated by X-ray and electron diffractions. The monoclinic unit cell parameters of the subcell of lithium 7 Å manganate, which is one of the best ordered manganates, were obtained by computing the X-ray powder diffraction data: a = 5.152 Å, b = 2.845 Å, c = 7.196 Å, β = 103.08°. On the basis of the indices obtained by computing the X-ray diffraction data of Li 7 Å manganate, monovalent Na, K and Cs and divalent Be, Sr and Ba 7 Å manganates were interpreted as the same monoclinic structure with β = 100–103° as that of Li 7 Å manganate, from their X-ray diffraction data. In addition, divalent Mg, Ca and Ni 10 Å manganates were also interpreted as the same monoclinic crystal system with β = 90–94° The unit cell parameters, especially a, c and β, change possibly with the type of substituent cation probably because of the different ionic radius, hydration energy and molar ratio of substituent cation to manganese. However, these diffraction data, except for those of Sr and Ba 7 Å and Ca and Ni 10 Å manganates, reveal only some parts of the host manganese structure with the edge-shared [MnO6] octahedral layer. On the other hand, one of the superlattice reflections observed in the electron diffractions was found in the X-ray diffraction lines for heavier divalent cations Sr and Ba 7 Å and Ca and Ni 10 Å manganates. The reflection presumably results from the substituent cation position in the interlayer which is associated with the vacancies in the edge-shared [MnO6] layer and indicates that the essential vacancies are linearly arranged parallel to the b-axis. Furthermore, the characteristic superlattice reflection patterns for several cations, Li, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba and Ni, manganates were interpreted that the substituent cations are regularly distributed in the interlayer according to the exchange percentage of substituent cation to Na+. In contrast, the streaking in the a-direction observed strongly in the electron diffractions for heavier monovalent cations, K and Cs, manganates probably results from the disordering of their cations in the a-direction in the interlayer.
