Successful application of high pressure on synthesis of organic polymer, including the conducting polymer and super hard materials depends on the knowledge of reaction mechanism. The evolution of crystal structure under high pressure especially the structure close to transition pressure is crucial to conclude the reaction mechanism. Nitriles represent a large class of interstellar molecules and are the potential source of amino acids. Understanding its behavior at extreme conditions has gained increasing attention recently. Acetonitrile (CH3CN), the simplest organic compound with C≡N triple bond, can act as a model system for studying the pressure induced polymerization. The phase transition of acetonitrile under high pressure has been studied extensively.[1-3] However, it is still controversial and there is no any detailed discussion about its polymerization mechanism under high pressure. Here, we report the in-situ high pressure Raman spectra and powder neutron diffraction results on CD3CN, which indicates a minor phase transition at 5 GPa. The neutron diffraction shows that CD3CN keeps the orthorhombic phase from 1.66 GPa to 20.58 GPa which is very close to the reaction pressure. The week hydrogen bonding CD...N arranges the molecule into 3-dimensional framework which can be treated as two sets of diamond like structures interpenetrating with each other. Interestingly, the observed N...D distance is 1.984 Å at 20.58 GPa, shorter than the van der Waals distance of N...H (2.75 Å) by 28%. The van der Waals separation is often taken as a reference distance for the molecular instability. Thus, a hydrogen transfer process during the polymerization can be concluded. This deduction is also supported by the solid state NMR and FTIR results of the recovered polymerized CH3CN (p-CH3CN) from high pressure. In addition, the atomic pair distribution function and Raman spectra indicate the p-CD3CN or p-CH3CN has a random packed layer structure with nano-graphene lattice.

Neutron Diffraction Method

We have investigated the crystal structure of strongly anisotropic semiconductor TlInSe2 by neutron diffraction method under high pressure upto P = 3.3 GPa. It was shown that the tetragonal phase of TlInSe2 crystal (the space group I4/mcm) is stable in the whole investigated range of pressure. The lattice parameters dependence of the pressure and the unit cell volume are obtained, the linear coefficients of compressibility and the bulk moduli are calculated. At the low pressure, obtained value of compressibility for the lattice parameter a is k[Formula: see text] = 14.23 × 10[Formula: see text] GPa[Formula: see text] and for c is k[Formula: see text] = 5.93 × 10[Formula: see text] GPa[Formula: see text]. Obtained values for bulk modulus B0 and its pressure derivative B[Formula: see text] in tetragonal phase are 30(7) GPa and 4(1), respectively.
