AbstractHigh resolution (sinθ/λ < 1.34 Å−1), low temperature (85 K) X-ray diffraction data has been used to map the deformation density and the derived electrostatic potential for three dinitramide salts. The traditional presentation of contour maps has been replaced with 3D views of the molecule. A comparison of the dinitramide ions from each salt is presented.

AbstractHigh-resolution powder X-ray diffraction measurements have been used to determine the low-temperature crystal structures of the hydrofluorocarbons 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane (HFC-134a) and 1,2-difluoroethane (HFC-152a). Below their melting points both compounds form body-centred-cubic orientationally-disordered phases with a = 5.7606(2) Å for HFC-134a and

Bacteria and fungi express lytic polysaccharide monooxgyenase (LPMO) enzymes that act in conjunction with canonical hydrolytic sugar-processing enzymes to rapidly convert polysaccharides such as chitin, cellulose and starch to single monosaccharide products. In order to gain a better understanding of the structure and oxidative mechanism of these enzymes, large crystals (1–3 mm3) of a chitin-processing LPMO from the Gram-positive soil bacteriumJonesia denitrificanswere grown and screened for their ability to diffract neutrons. In addition to the collection of neutron diffraction data, which were processed to 2.1 Å resolution, a high-resolution room-temperature X-ray diffraction data set was collected and processed to 1.1 Å resolution in space groupP212121. To our knowledge, this work marks the first successful neutron crystallographic experiment on an LPMO. Joint X-ray/neutron refinement of the resulting data will reveal new details of the structure and mechanism of this recently discovered class of enzymes.

AbstractX-ray diffraction (XRD) and high-resolution scanning electron microscopy (SEM) have been used to characterize the silver mercury amalgam particles resting on the surface that comprise the image of five daguerreotype plates that were not gilded and that were prepared by three different contemporary daguerreotype makers. The regions of interest of the surface that were examined were overexposed, solarized, and highlight (white) areas. The XRD portion of the study shows that the two main silver mercury amalgam particles identified using the International Center for Diffraction Data PF4 + database were the Schachnerite/ζ (zeta) phase amalgam, Ag1.1Hg0.9, and the mercury silver amalgam, Ag0.65Hg0.35. On one of the daguerreotypes a third silver mercury amalgam, Moschellandsbergite, Ag2Hg3, was also identified in small concentrations. High-resolution SEM images corroborate the diffraction data and show that the crystalline nature of the silver mercury amalgam particles on all five plates to be mostly hexagonal, which would correspond to the Schachnerite/ζ (zeta) phase amalgam, and fewer rectangular solid and cubic crystals corresponding to the mercury silver amalgam.

As part of a study by high-resolution X-ray diffraction of chrome ores from the Great Dyke, Zimbabwe, powder data are reported for a well-crystallized ferroan magnesiochromite spinel, in which some Cr had been replaced by Al. Data were obtained by using CuKα1 radiation, with an incident beam focusing monochromator to eliminate the Kα2 component. The cell parameter is a0=8.3123(2) Å, the figures of merit are M17=383 and F17=182 (0.0055, 17) and the calculated density is 4.50(5) Mgm−3. A small amount of sample broadening was observed and this was attributed to a mean crystallite size of 259(1) nm. © 1997 International Center for Diffraction Data.
