Crystal structure of the inter-metallic compound SrCdPt.

ABSTRACT: The crystal structure of the title compound, strontium cadmium platinum, adopts the TiNiSi structure type with the Sr atoms on the Ti, the Cd atoms on the Ni and the Pt atoms on the Si positions, respectively. The Pt atoms form cadmium-centred tetra-hedra that are condensed into a three-dimensional network with channels parallel to the b-axis direction in which the Sr atoms are located. The latter are bonded to each other in the form of six-membered rings with chair conformations. All atoms in the SrCdPt structure are situated on a mirror plane.

Project description:Bis[triamminesilver(I)] bis-[diamminesilver(I)] hexa-fluorido-stannate(IV) difluoride, [Ag(NH3)3]2[Ag(NH3)2]2[SnF6]F2, was obtained in the form of colourless crystals from the reaction of CsAgSnF7 in anhydrous ammonia. Two different ammine complexes of silver(I) are present in the structure, i.e. a linear diammine and a T-shaped triammine complex. The ammine silver(I) complexes show Ag?Ag distances in the range of argentophilic inter-actions. In the crystal, several N-H?F hydrogen bonds are present between the complex cations and the SbF6- and F- anions, leading to the formation of a three-dimensional network.

Phase Equilibria, Crystal Structure and Hydriding/Dehydriding Mechanism of Nd4Mg80Ni8 Compound.

Project description:In order to find out the optimal composition of novel Nd-Mg-Ni alloys for hydrogen storage, the isothermal section of Nd-Mg-Ni system at 400 °C is established by examining the equilibrated alloys. A new ternary compound Nd4Mg80Ni8 is discovered in the Mg-rich corner. It has the crystal structure of space group I41/amd with lattice parameters of a = b = 11.2743(1) Å and c = 15.9170(2) Å, characterized by the synchrotron powder X-ray diffraction (SR-PXRD). High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM) is used to investigate the microstructure of Nd4Mg80Ni8 and its hydrogen-induced microstructure evolution. The hydrogenation leads to Nd4Mg80Ni8 decomposing into NdH2.61-MgH2-Mg2NiH0.3 nanocomposites, where the high density phase boundaries provide a great deal of hydrogen atoms diffusion channels and nucleation sites of hydrides, which greatly enhances the hydriding/dehydriding (H/D) properties. The Nd4Mg80Ni8 exhibits a good cycle ability. The kinetic mechanisms of H/D reactions are studied by Real Physical Picture (RPP) model. The rate controlling steps are diffusion for hydriding reaction in the temperature range of 100 ~ 350 °C and surface penetration for dehydriding reaction at 291 ~ 347 °C. In-situ SR-PXRD results reveal the phase transformations of Mg to MgH2 and Mg2Ni to Mg2NiH4 as functions of hydrogen pressure and hydriding time.

Crystal structure and halogen-hydrogen bonding of a Delepine reaction inter-mediate.

Project description:The reaction of 1,5-di-bromo-pentane with urotropine results in crystals of the title mol-ecular salt, 5-bromo-urotropinium bromide [systematic name: 1-(5-bro-mo-pent-yl)-3,5,7-tri-aza-1-azoniatri-cyclo-[3.3.1.13,7]decane bromide], C11H22BrN4 +·Br- (1), crystallizing in space group P21/n. The packing in compound 1 is directed mainly by H⋯H van der Waals inter-actions and C-H⋯Br hydrogen bonds, as revealed by Hirshfeld surface analysis. Comparison with literature examples of alkyl-urotropinium halides shows that the inter-actions in 1 are consistent with those in other bromides and simple chloride and iodide species.

Crystal structure and magnetism in the S = 1/2 spin dimer compound NaCu2VP2O10.

Project description:The crystal structure of the spin dimer magnet NaCu2VP2O10 was determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction and electron diffraction. NaCu2VP2O10 displayed a non-centrosymmetric orthorhombic C2221 structure with a = 6.13860?(10)?Å, b = 14.4846?(3)?Å and c = 8.2392?(2)?Å. The layered structure comprised CuO4 plaquettes, VO6 octahedra and PO4 tetrahedra. A pair of CuO4 plaquettes formed Cu2O6 structural dimers through edge sharing. The Cu-Cu network formed a distorted puckered-layer structure with pseudo-one-dimensional characteristics. Maximum magnetic susceptibility was observed at ?60?K and NaCu2VP2O10 became non-magnetic upon further cooling. The spin gap between the spin-singlet non-magnetic ground state and triplet excited state was estimated to be 43.4?K. Thus, NaCu2VP2O10 was assumed to be an alternating chain system with a singlet ground state of dimer origin. The V5+ ions in the VO6 octahedra showed large off-centre displacements along the [110] direction in the primitive perovskite structure, which were attributed to the pseudo-Jahn-Teller distortion of d 0 transition metals.

Crystal structure of a 1,1,2,2-tetra-chloro-ethane-solvated hydrazinecarbo-thio-amide compound.

Project description:The title compound, [(1-{4-[2-(2,4-di-hydroxy-phen-yl)diazen-1-yl]phen-yl}ethyl-idene)amino]-thio-urea, 1,1,2,2-tetra-chloro-ethane monosolvate, C15H15N5O2S·C2H2Cl4, was prepared from 4-(4-acetyl-phenyl-diazendi-yl)resorcinol and thio-semicarbazide and recrystallized from mixed solvents of tetra-chloro-ethane and n-hexane. 1H NMR and X-ray diffraction data are in support of the thione tautomeric form. The X-ray analysis shows the mol-ecule crystallizes as a zwitterion, with proton transfer from the nominal phenol to the azide group; the N-N bond length is 1.291?(5)?Å, and an intra-molecular N-H?O hydrogen bond is formed. In the crystal, N-H?O, N-H?N and O-H?S hydrogen bonds connect the mol-ecules into a three-dimensional network. The tetra-chloro-ethane solvent mol-ecules are linked to this network through weak C-H?O linkages.

WB5- x : Synthesis, Properties, and Crystal Structure-New Insights into the Long-Debated Compound.

Project description:The recent theoretical prediction of a new compound, WB5, has spurred the interest in tungsten borides and their possible implementation in industry. In this research, the experimental synthesis and structural description of a boron-rich tungsten boride and measurements of its mechanical properties are performed. The ab initio calculations of the structural energies corresponding to different local structures make it possible to formulate the rules determining the likely local motifs in the disordered versions of the WB5 structure, all of which involve boron deficit. The generated disordered WB4.18 and WB4.86 models both perfectly match the experimental data, but the former is the most energetically preferable. The precise crystal structure, elastic constants, hardness, and fracture toughness of this phase are calculated, and these results agree with the experimental findings. Because of the compositional and structural similarity with predicted WB5, this phase is denoted as WB5- x . Previously incorrectly referred to as "WB4," it is distinct from earlier theoretically suggested WB4, a phase with a different crystal structure that has not yet been synthesized and is predicted to be thermodynamically stable at pressures above 1 GPa. Mild synthesis conditions (enabling a scalable synthesis) and excellent mechanical properties make WB5- x a very promising material for drilling technology.

Crystal structure of Leishmania major peroxidase and characterization of the compound i tryptophan radical.

Project description:The parasitic protozoa Leishmania major produces a peroxidase (L. major peroxidase; LmP) that exhibits activities characteristic of both yeast cytochrome c peroxidase (CCP) and plant cytosolic ascorbate peroxidase (APX). One common feature is a key Trp residue, Trp(208) in LmP and Trp(191) in CCP, that is situated adjacent to the proximal His heme ligand in CCP, APX, and LmP. In CCP, Trp(191) forms a stable cationic radical after reaction with H(2)O(2) to form Compound I; in APX, the radical is located on the porphyrin ring. In order to clarify the role of Trp(208) in LmP and to further probe peroxidase structure-function relationships, we have determined the crystal structure of LmP and have studied the role of Trp(208) using electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy (EPR), mutagenesis, and enzyme kinetics. Both CCP and LmP have an extended section of ? structure near Trp(191) and Trp(208), respectively, which is absent in APX. This region provides stability to the Trp(191) radical in CCP. EPR of LmP Compound I exhibits an intense and stable signal similar to CCP Compound I. In the LmP W208F mutant, this signal disappears, indicating that Trp(208) forms a stable cationic radical. In LmP conversion of the Cys(197) to Thr significantly weakens the Compound I EPR signal and dramatically lowers enzyme activity. These results further support the view that modulation of the local electrostatic environment controls the stability of the Trp radical in peroxidases. Our results also suggest that the biological role of LmP is to function as a cytochrome c peroxidase.

Crystal structure, Hirshfeld surface analysis, inter-action energy, and DFT studies of cholesteryl hepta-noate.

Project description:The title compound, C34H58O2, consists of cholesteryl and hepta-noate units, in which the six-membered rings adopt chair and twisted-boat conformations while the five-membered ring adopts an envelope conformation. In the crystal, the mol-ecules are aligned along the a-axis direction and stacked along the b-axis direction. The Hirshfeld surface analysis of the crystal structure indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H⋯H (92.4%) and H⋯O/O⋯H (6.1%) inter-actions. van der Waals inter-actions are the dominant inter-actions in the crystal packing. Density functional theory (DFT) optimized structures at the B3LYP/ 6-31 G(d) level are compared with the experimentally determined mol-ecular structure in the solid state. The HOMO-LUMO behaviour was elucidated to determine the energy gap, and the mol-ecular electrostatic potential (MEP) of the compound was investigated.

Supercluster-coupled crystal growth in metallic glass forming liquids.

Project description:While common growth models assume a structure-less liquid composed of atomic flow units, structural ordering has been shown in liquid metals. Here, we conduct in situ transmission electron microscopy crystallization experiments on metallic glass nanorods, and show that structural ordering strongly affects crystal growth and is controlled by nanorod thermal history. Direct visualization reveals structural ordering as densely populated small clusters in a nanorod heated from the glass state, and similar behavior is found in molecular dynamics simulations of model metallic glasses. At the same growth temperature, the asymmetry in growth rate for rods that are heated versus cooled decreases with nanorod diameter and vanishes for very small rods. We hypothesize that structural ordering enhances crystal growth, in contrast to assumptions from common growth models. The asymmetric growth rate is attributed to the difference in the degree of the structural ordering, which is pronounced in the heated glass but sparse in the cooled liquid.
