Iron(II)oxalate dihydrate FeC2O4 × 2 H2O—humboldtine is not only an important synthetic intermediate, but also a key building block for the preparation of various advanced materials. Interestingly, FeC2O4 × 2 H2O can be transformed readily into phase-pure siderite FeCO3. The importance of siderite for earth sciences, in particular for the understanding of the deep carbon cycle of our planet, is paramount. The availability of high-quality single crystals of FeC2O4 × 2 H2O is crucial for diffraction or spectroscopic studies at high pressure. The present article describes a versatile synthetic approach to single crystals of FeC2O4 × 2 H2O and its deuterated analogue starting from metallic iron together with a complete characterization of the products obtained. The same protocol has been employed successfully for the preparation of 57FeC2O4 × 2 H2O, as required for Möβbauer spectroscopy. In addition, the pressure-dependence of the crystal and molecular structure of the title compound was investigated up to p ≥ 20 GPa.

This article describes complete characterization of the polygonal dislocation half-loops (PDHLs) introduced by scratching and subsequent bending of an Si(111) crystal. The study is based on the X-ray topo-tomography technique using both a conventional laboratory setup and the high-resolution X-ray image-detecting systems at the synchrotron facilities at KIT (Germany) and ESRF (France). Numerical analysis of PDHL images is performed using the Takagi–Taupin equations and the simultaneous algebraic reconstruction technique (SART) tomographic algorithm.

Cobalt(II) complexes of tripyrrin ligands can be transformed into cations by anion exchange using NaBAr F , a salt of a weakly coordinating anion. The complete characterization of these highly sensitive cations (probably solvate complexes) could not be achieved, but the coordination to donor ligands like nitriles or trialkylphosphanes stabilizes the cations sufficiently for the isolation of some single crystals. As the structural analyses of these donor-stabilized cobalt(II) tripyrrins reveal, either four- or five coordinate structures are formed depending on the type and size of ligand used.

L-valine L-valinium perchlorate monohydrate single crystal has been synthesized by slow evaporation technique at room temperature. The crystal structure and space group of the crystal were confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffractometer. Optical behavior of the crystal was analyzed by using UV-visible spectrophotometer. Thermal stability was discussed by using thermo gravimetric analysis. Mechanical strength of the grown crystal was studied using Vickers microhardness tester. Nonlinear optical property was explored to confirm the second harmonic generation efficiency of the grown crystal. These preliminary investigations suggest that the title compound can serve as a potential material for photonics applications. Full Text: PDF ReferencesD. J.

The cubic iron hydroxy boracite Fe3B7O13OH・1.5H2O was synthesized from Fe2O3 and B2O3 under high-pressure/high-temperature conditions of 3 GPa and 960 °C in a modified Walker-type multianvil apparatus. The crystal structure was determined at room temperature by X-ray diffraction on single crystals. It crystallizes in the cubic space group F4̄3c (Z = 8) with the parameters a = 1222.4(2) pm, V = 1.826(4) nm3, R1 = 0.0362, and wR2 = 0.0726 (all data). The B-O network is similar to that of other cubic boracites.
