This paper reports the analysis of a single crystal copper rod aiming to characterize the microstructural features related to the homogeneity of the single crystal growth and the presence, shape and extension of spatially distributed misaligned grains or areas. The analytical method used for such analysis is wavelength scan neutron radiography and monochromatic neutron tomography. Such methods allow determination of the extent of differently oriented single crystal areas, identifying the most part of the rod volume as a single domain. It was also possible to characterize the spatial distribution and the degree of alignment of local point-like or extended defects.

AbstractThe potassium pentaborate KB5O7(OH)2 reported herein crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c (no. 14) with the lattice parameters a = 904.8(2), b = 753.2(2), c = 1214.9(5) pm, β = 117.16(2)°, and V = 0.73663(5) nm3 (Z = 4). It is a disordered structural variant of an already known compound with the same composition (a = 766.90(3), b = 904.45(3), c = 1223.04(4) pm, β = 119.132(2)°, and V = 0.74101(5) nm3 (Z = 4)) reported by Wu in 2011. The disorder of the potassium cation in the single crystal structure determination of KB5O7(OH)2 presented here leads to a remarkably elongated a axis and a corresponding reduction of the length of the b axis in comparison to the ordered compound. The disordered variant was obtained through a hydrothermal synthesis from KNO3, B2O3, and Ce(NO3)3·6H2O with a molar ratio of 1:1:0.07.

Single-crystal room-temperature X-ray structure determinations of the title compounds have been carried out. The two compounds are isomorphous, and isomorphous with the previously determined iodide analogue, being monoclinic, P 21/c, a ≈ 10.0, b ≈ 14.9, c ≈ 7.8 Ǻ, β ≈ 92°, Z = 4 formula units; residuals were 0.037, 0.036 for 2197, 1654 'observed' reflections for X = Cl , Br respectively. As in the iodide, the complexes are infinite polymers, with successive bismuth atoms bridged by the two halides and one sulfur atom of the ligand , which also chelates each bismuth. The structure determination of C5H5NCONEt2]2 [Cl5Bi(NC5H5)], isostructural with its thiocarbamoyl analogue, is also recorded.

The isolation and single-crystal X-ray structure determination of the title compound, [(phen)2Pb(NCS)(O2NO)] is described; crystals are triclinic, P1, a 15.554(7), b 9-670(4), c 8.429(3) α 72.53(3), β 81.90(3), γ 72.88(3)� Z = 2, yielding R 0.052 for 3405 independent 'observed' reflections. The lead atom is seven-coordinate [Pb-N 2.49(1)-2.60(1) (phen), 2.89(1) (NCS); Pb-O 2.75(1), 2.89(1) �] with a large vacancy in the coordination sphere, possibly indicative of a stereochemically active lone pair.
