The crystal structures of sodium 9,10-dioxo-9,10-dihydroanthracene-2-sulfonate hydrate (1) and sodium 9,10-dioxo-9,10-dihydroanthracene-1,5-disulfonate trihydrate (2) have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction at 253 K and refined to R 0.03 for (1) (1535 reflections) and R 0.04 for (2) (1409 reflections). Crystals of (1) are monoclinic, P21, a 17.395(5), b 6.625(2), c 5.537(1)Ǻ, β 91.87(2)°, Z 2, and those of (2) are orthorhombic, Pnma, a 11.332(4), b 20.048(5), c 7.634(3)Ǻ, Z 4. The results of molecular mechanics calculations on these two molecules were in general agreement with those determined by X-ray methods. The effect of sulfonate substitution in the 1-position compared with that in the 2-position include a small lengthening of the C-S bond and a displacement of the sulfur and quinone oxygen atoms to opposite sides of the plane of the substituted aromatic ring. However, these differences do not appear to be of sufficient magnitude to account for the much greater differences in the electrochemical and photochemical behaviour of these two classes of anthraquinone sulfonate derivatives.

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) represent an exciting new type of porous organic materials, which are constructed with organic building units via strong covalent bonds.[1] The structure determination of COFs is challenging, due to the difficulty in growing sufficiently large crystals suitable for single crystal X-ray diffraction, and low resolution and peak broadening for powder X-ray diffraction. Crystal structures of COFs are typically determined by modelling building with the aid of geometry principles in reticular chemistry and powder X-ray diffraction data. Here, we report the single-crystal structure of a new COF (COF-320) determined by 3D rotation electron diffraction (RED),[2] a technique applied in this context for the first time. The RED method can collect an almost complete three-dimensional electron diffraction dataset, and is a useful technique for structure determination of micron- and nanosized single crystals. To minimize electron beam damage, the RED dataset was collected at 89 K. 3D reciprocal lattice of COF-320 was reconstructed from the ED frames using the RED – data processing software[2]. As the resolution of the RED data only reached 1.6 Å, the simulated annealing parallel tempering algorithm in the FOX software package [3] was used to find a starting molecular arrangement from the 3D RED data. Finally, the crystal structure of COF-320 was solved in the space group of I-42d and refined using the SHELXL software package. The single-crystal structure of COF-320 exhibits a 3D extended framework by linking the tetrahedral organic building blocks and biphenyl linkers through imine-bonds forming a highly porous 9-fold interwoven diamond net.

Abstract The synthesis of a λ3 P-substituted phosphorane involving direct substitution of a Ph2P group at λ5P by the reaction of a chlorophosphorane with Ph2PSiMe3 is described; the identity of this novel compound is established by NMR and mass spectroscopy, and by a single crystal X-ray diffraction study.

In pharmaceutical sciences, the crystal structure is of primary importance because it influences drug efficacy. Due to difficulties of growing a large single crystal suitable for the single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, powder diffraction method is widely used. In powder method, two-dimensional diffraction information is projected onto one dimension, which impairs the accuracy of the resulting crystal structure. To overcome this problem, we recently proposed a novel method of fabricating a magnetically oriented microcrystal array (MOMA), a composite in which microcrystals are aligned three-dimensionally in a polymer matrix. The X-ray diffraction of the MOMA is equivalent to that of the corresponding large single crystal, enabling the determination of the crystal lattice parameters and crystal structure of the embedded microcrytals.[1-3] Because we make use of the diamagnetic anisotropy of crystal, those crystals that exhibit small magnetic anisotropy do not take sufficient three-dimensional alignment. However, even for these crystals that only align uniaxially, the determination of the crystal lattice parameters can be easily made compared with the determination by powder diffraction pattern. Once these parameters are determined, crystal structure can be determined by X-ray powder diffraction method. In this paper, we demonstrate possibility of the MOMA method to assist the structure analysis through X-ray powder and single crystal diffraction methods. We applied the MOMA method to various microcrystalline powders including L-alanine, 1,3,5-triphenyl benzene, and cellobiose. The obtained MOMAs exhibited well-resolved diffraction spots, and we succeeded in determination of the crystal lattice parameters and crystal structure analysis.

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].
