Potassium tetraperoxomolybdate (VI) K2[Mo(O2)4] was prepared, and its X-ray powder diffraction pattern was recorded at low temperature (258 K). The unit cell parameters were refined to a=10.7891(2) Å, α=64.925(3)°, space group R−3c (167), Z=6. The compound is isostructural with potassium tetraperoxotungstate (VI) K2[W(O2)4] (Stomberg, 1988). The sample of K2[Mo(O2)4] was characterized by analytical investigations, and the results of crystal structure refinement by Rietveld method are presented; final RP and RWP are 9.79% and 12.37%, respectively.

AbstractEuhedral crystals of the low-temperature mineral lansfordite, MgCO3 · 5H2O, have been prepared from saturated magnesium bicarbonate solutions at temperatures below 10°C. The crystals are monoclinic P21/a with a = 12.4758(7), b = 7.6258(4), c = 7.3463(6)Å, β = 101.762(6)°, V = 684.24Å3, Dcalc. = 1.693 g cm−3, Dobs. = 1.70(1) g m−3. At room temperature, the crystals slowly effloresce to produce pseudomorphs of nesquehonite, MgCO3 · 3H2O. Dehydration is complete at 300°C, with decarbonation taking place in the interval to 560°C. A new X-ray powder diffraction pattern is presented, and details of the infra-red absorption spectrum are discussed.

The β-trimethylsilyl substituent in 2-trimethylsilylethyl p-nitrobenzoate (12b) and 2-trimethylsilylethyl 2,4-dinitrobenzenesulfenate (12c) leads to significant lengthening of the C(alkyl)–O(ester) bond. Lengthening of the Si-CH2 distance in the more electronegative ester (12c) relative to (12b) is also observed. These structural effects are consistent with the presence of σC-Si–σ* C-O interactions.

The crystalline structure of new TlSr2PrCu207−x was obtained at room temperature (300 K) and low temperature (100 K) from X-ray powder diffraction with CuKα radiation using Rietveld analysis. TlSr2PrCu207−x has an isotypical structure with TlBa2CaCu207 (1212). At 300 K, crystal data: Tl0.864Sr2PrCu2O6.75, Mr=727.811, the tetragonal system, P4/mmm, a =3.85404(5) Å, c = 12.1046(2) Å, V=179.80 Å3, Z=1, Dx =6.7218 g cm−3, μ =1143.922 cm−1 (λ = 1.54051 Å), F(000)=317.0, the structure was refined with 28 parameters to Rwp=5.29%, Rp = 3.65% for 3551 step intensities and Rb=7.40%, Rf=639% for 155 peaks, “goodness of fit” 5=3.05. At 100 K, crystal data: Tl0.858Sr2PrCu2O6.61, Mr=724.345, the tetragonal system, P4/mmm, a =3.84872(6) Å, c = 12.0771(3) Å, V=178.89 Å3, Z=1, Dx=6.7235 g cm−3, μ=1146.939 cm−1 (λ= 1.54051 Å), F(000) = 315.4, the structure was refined with 26 parameters to Rwp=6.70%, Rp=5.11% for 2926 step intensities and Rb=7.83%, Rf=6.70% for 131 peaks, “goodness of fit” S = 1.75.

The low-temperature structure of 4-methylpyridine-N-oxide was previously determined in symmetry P41 [Damay et al. (2006), Acta Cryst. B62, 627–633]. Using a recently published symmetry-determination method it was found that the true symmetry of the structure is P41212. The structure was refined in the new space group using X-ray and neutron data. The previously published structure is close to the newly refined structure, but the new structure is in agreement with the results of rotational tunneling spectroscopy, and, in contrast to the structure in symmetry P41, does not require a twofold degeneracy of the tunneling bands.
