ABSTRACTUniaxially oriented, crystalline fibers of poly(2,2'-(p,p'-biphenyl)- 6,6'-bis(4-phenylquinoline)) [PBPQ], were subjected to structure analysis via x-ray diffraction and molecular packing analysis. Packing analysis was required due to the sparse and diffuse nature of the fiber diffraction photographs. The combination of the two techniques allowed us to resolve the crystal structure. PBPQ packs in a syn conformation, in a modified herringbone structure. It has a unit cell of a = 16.2Å, b = 5.31Å, c = 21.4Å. There are two independent chains in the unit cell. An overview of the refinement of the crystal structure, the packing analysis and the crystallography are presented.

This study investigates the crystal chemistry of monazite (APO4, where A = Lanthanides = Ln, as well as Y, Th, U, Ca, and Pb) based on four samples from different localities using single-crystal X-ray diffraction and electron-probe microanalysis. The crystal structure of all four samples are well refined, as indicated by their refinement statistics. Relatively large unit-cell parameters (a = 6.7640(5), b = 6.9850(4), c = 6.4500(3) Å, β = 103.584(2)°, and V = 296.22(3) Å3) are obtained for a detrital monazite-Ce from Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh. Sm-rich monazite from Gunnison County, Colorado, USA, has smaller unit-cell parameters (a = 6.7010(4), b = 6.9080(4), c = 6.4300(4) Å, β = 103.817(3)°, and V = 289.04(3) Å3). The a, b, and c unit-cell parameters vary linearly with the unit-cell volume, V. The change in the a parameter is large (0.2 Å) and is related to the type of cations occupying the A site. The average <A-O> distances vary linearly with V, whereas the average <P-O> distances are nearly constant because the PO4 group is a rigid tetrahedron.

Nowadays, due to the adverse health effects associated with exposure to asbestos, its removal and thermal inertization has become one of the most promising ways for reducing waste risk management. Despite all the advances in structure analysis of fibers and characterization, some problems still remain that are very hard to solve. One challenge is the structure analysis of natural micro- and nano-crystalline samples, which do not form crystals large enough for single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SC-XRD), and their analysis is often hampered by reflection overlap and the coexistence of multiple fibres linked together. In this paper, we have used nano-focused synchrotron X-rays to refine the crystal structure of a micrometric tremolite fibres from Val d’Ala, Turin (Italy) after various heat treatment. The structure of the original fibre and after heating to 800 °C show minor differences, while the fibre that was heated at 1000 °C is recrystallized into pyroxene phases and cristobalite.

The syntheses and IR spectra of the complexes [Mo2(O2C-Ph)4X2]2⊖ with X = N3, CI, Br and the counter ion PPh4⊕ are reported. The azido and the bromo complexes are obtained from a solution of [Mo2(O2CPh)4] with PPh4N3 in pyridine or by reaction with PPh4Br in CH2Br2, respectively. When (PPh4)2[Mo2(O2CPh)4(N3)2] is dissolved in CH2Cl2, nitrogen is evolved and the complex with X = CI is obtained. The crystal structure of (PPh4)2[Mo2(O2CPh)4Cl2] · 2CH2Cl2 was determined from X-ray diffraction data (5676 observed independent reflexions, R = 0.042). It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/n with four formula units per unit cell; the lattice constants are a = 1549, b = 1400, c = 1648 pm, β = 94.6°. The centrosymmetric [Mo2(O2CPh)4Cl2]2⊖ ion has a rather short Mo-Mo bond of 213 pm, whereas the MoCl bonds are very long (288 pm)

The complexes AsPh4[Cl4V = N-Cl] and AsPh4[VOCl4] are prepared by the reaction of AsPh4Cl with Cl3VNCl and VOCl3, respectively. The IR spectra indicate C4v symmetry for the complex anions with multiple VN and VO bonds and a linear arrangement for the VNCl-group. AsPh4[VOCl4] crystallizes in the tetragonal space group P4/n with two formula units in the unit cell. The crystal structure was solved by X-ray diffraction methods (R = 0,062, 1096 observed, independent reflexions). The structure consists of AsPh4+ cations and [VOCl4]- anions with symmetry C4v. The extremely short VO bond length corresponds with a VO triple; its steric requirements cause the relatively large bond angle OVCl of 103.4°.

The technogenic mineral phases NH4MgCl3·6H2O and (NH4)2Fe3+Cl5·H2O from the burned dumps of the Chelyabinsk coal basin have been investigated by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and high-temperature powder X-ray diffraction. The NH4MgCl3·6H2O phase is monoclinic, space group C2/c, unit cell parameters a = 9.3091(9), b = 9.5353(7), c = 13.2941(12) Å, β = 90.089(8)° and V = 1180.05(18) Å3. The crystal structure of NH4MgCl3·6H2O was refined to R1 = 0.078 (wR2 = 0.185) on the basis of 1678 unique reflections. The (NH4)2Fe3+Cl5·H2O phase is orthorhombic, space group Pnma, unit cell parameters a = 13.725(2), b = 9.9365(16), c = 7.0370(11) Å and V = 959.7(3) Å3. The crystal structure of (NH4)2Fe3+Cl5·H2O was refined to R1 = 0.023 (wR2 = 0.066) on the basis of 2256 unique reflections. NH4MgCl3·6H2O is stable up to 90 °C and then transforms to the less hydrated phase isotypic to β-Rb(MnCl3)(H2O)2 (i.e., NH4MgCl3·2H2O), the latter phase being stable up to 150 °C. (NH4)2Fe3+Cl5·H2O is stable up to 120 °C and then transforms to an X-ray amorphous phase. Hydrogen bonds provide an important linkage between the main structural units and play the key role in determining structural stability and physical properties of the studied phases. The mineral phases NH4MgCl3·6H2O and (NH4)2Fe3+Cl5·H2O are isostructural with natural minerals novograblenovite and kremersite, respectively.

SummaryThe crystal structure of gersdorffite (III) has been examined with three-dimensional Weissenberg X-ray diffraction data. The unit cell is isometric with a 5·6849 ± 0·0003 Å, space group PI, and four formula units per cell. This structure has the sulphur and arsenic atoms equally distributed over the non-metal atom sites of pyrite. All atoms show significant random displacements from the ideal pyrite positions to produce triclinic symmetry, which serves to distinguish this mineral from a disordered cubic gersdorffite (II) and a partially ordered cubic gersdorffite (I). Factors responsible for the atomic distortions are discussed.

The Impact

At the dawn of crystal structure analysis, the close personal contact between researchers in Russia and Germany, well documented in the “Zeitschrift für Krystallographie und Mineralogie”, contributed significantly to the evolution of our present knowledge of the crystalline state. The impact of the Russian crystallographer E. S. Fedorov upon German scientists such as A. Schoenflies and P. Groth and the effect of these contacts for Fedorov are highlighted hundred years after the death of the latter. A creative exchange of ideas paved the way for the analysis of crystal structures with the aid of X-ray diffraction.

Abstract The 1-alkyne-1-thiolates R-C ≡C-SLi [1a: R = C(CH3)3, 1b: R = C6H11 ] react with L2PtCl2 (L = PPh3, 1/2 dppe) and CpRu(PPh3)2Cl, respectively to give the complexes trans-(Ph3P)2Pt[S-C ≡C-C(CH3)3]2 (2a), cis-dppePt[S-C≡C-C(CH3)3]2 (2b), and CpRu(PPh3)2-(S-C ≡ C-R) [3a: R = C(CH3)3, 3b: R = C6H11]. 2a has been characterized by 31P CP/MAS NM R spectroscopy and its crystal structure determined by X-ray diffraction.

CH3HgN3 crystallizes in the space group P21/c with four molecules per unit cell. The structure was solved by common crystallographic methods using X-ray diffraction data that were collected at a temperature of 100°K. The cooling was necessary to limit the radiation damage of the crystals. The molecules possess an essentially linear C-Hg-N group; in the crystals they are associated to layers bearing the methyl groups on their outer side.
