The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C20H23BrN2O, contains two independent molecules (AandB), in which the orientations of the 4-isobutylphenyl units are different. The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 88.45 (8)° in moleculeAand 89.87 (8)° in moleculeB. MoleculesAandBare linked by a C—H...N hydrogen bond. In the crystal, molecules are linked into chains running along theaaxis by intermolcular N—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds. The crystal structure is further stabilized by C—H...π interactions. The presence of pseudosymmetry in the structure suggests the higher symmetry space groupPbca. However, attempts to refine the structure in this space group resulted in a disorder model with highR(0.097) andwR(0.257) values. The crystal studied was an inversion twin with a 0.595 (4):0.405 (4) domain ratio.

AbstractAn approach to structure determination for a crystal from component crystals in equal volume fractions, the most difficult case to the solution, is outlined with precautions for stepwise initialization. Proper selection of a crystal geometrical symmetry space group from a corresponding twin anti-symmetry space group and interpretation of a Patterson space are indispensable prerequisite for the solution. Observations unique to the case are briefly described in a sequence of Patterson synthesis, Fourier approach and least-squares refinement for efficient interpretation and processing.

The synthesis of the Mannich base N,N’-bis(antipyryl-4-methyl)-piperazine (BAMP) (1), its crystal structure as well as the synthesis and the crystal structure of the copper complex Cu(BAMP)(ClO4)2 (2) are reported. C28H34N6O2 ∙ 4H2O (BAMP ∙ 4H2O) crystallizes with triclinic symmetry, space group P1̄, lattice parameters: a = 704,9(2), b = 983,4(2), c = 1198,9(3) pm, α = 68,72°, β = 73,62°, γ = 78,49°. The copper-complex Cu(BAMP)(ClO4)2 crystallizes with tetragonal symmetry, space group P42/n, lattice parameters: a = 2295,1(3), c = 1412,2(2) pm. The copper(II) atom is five-coordinate by the two nitrogen atoms belonging to the piperazine ring and the oxygen atoms of the antipyrinemoieties. The geometry of the copper(II) atom can be described as a square-based pyramid with the N2O2 donor atoms of BAMP forming the basal plane and an oxygen atom of the neighbouring complex molecule occupying the apical position. BAMP acts as a tetradentate ligand, which incorporates a piperazine-fused ring. The structural parameters illustrate well the reinforcing effect exerted by the double “straps” of the piperazine molecule.

Single crystals of AgKCu3Mo4O16 have been prepared by crystallization from melts and investigated by X-ray diffractometer techniques. This compound crystallizes with monoclinic symmetry, space group C2h5 - P21/c, a = 5.056(1), b = 14.546(4), c = 19.858(9) Å, β = 86.64(5)°, Z = 4. The crystal structure of AgKCu3Mo4O16 is closely related to K2Cu3Mo4O16 showing ribbons of edge-sharing CuO6 and AgO7 polyhedra. The ribbons are linked by tetrahedrally coordinated molybdenum and K2O10 groups. Another kind of MoO4 tetrahedra occupies the cavities inside the ribbons. The crystal structure and the coordination of silver, copper, potassium and molybdenum by oxygen are discussed with respect to K2Cu3Mo4O16.

A well crystallized sample of U2Al3C4 was obtained by melting the elemental components in a carbon crucible in a high frequency furnace. The crystal structure of this compound was determined from single-crystal diffractometer data of a twinned crystal: P63mc, a = 342.2(1) pm. c = 2323.0(3) pm. Z = 2 , R = 0.030 for 537 structure factors and 18 variable parameters. The structure can also be described in the higher symmetry space group P63/mmc with one split aluminum position. It consists of close packed layers of uranium and aluminum atoms with carbon atoms at interstitial sites. The structure is closely related to that of Al4C3, which was refined from single-crystal X-ray data to a residual of R = 0.033 for 135 F-values and 11 variables. The hydrolysis of U2Al3C4 with diluted hydrochloric acid resulted in about 74 (wt-)% methane, 8% ethane and ethylene, and 18% saturated and unsaturated higher hydrocarbons.

Single crystals of Ba9Ru3.2Mn5.8O27 have been prepared by flux techniques. X-ray four circle diffractometer measurements led to trigonal (rhombohedral) symmetry, space group D53d - R3̄̄̄m , a = 5.7043(5), c = 21.255(4) Å , Z = 1. This phase is isotypic to BaRuO3. The crystal structure and the occupation of the M3O12 triple octahedra by ruthenium and manganese are discussed with respect to other oxides containing M3O12 groups in an ordered and disordered way.
