A new solvatomorph of [Au3(1-Methylimidazolate)3] (Au3(MeIm)3)—the simplest congener of imidazolate-based Au(I) cyclic trinuclear complexes (CTCs)—has been identified and structurally characterized. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction revealed a dichloromethane solvate exhibiting remarkably short intermolecular Au⋯Au distances (3.2190(7) Å). This goes along with a dimer formation in the solid state, which is not observed in a previously reported solvent-free crystal structure. Hirshfeld analysis, in combination with density functional theory (DFT) calculations, indicates that the dimerization is generally driven by attractive aurophilic interactions, which are commonly associated with the luminescence properties of CTCs. Since Au3(MeIm)3 has previously been reported to be emissive in the solid-state, we conducted a thorough photophysical study combined with phase analysis by means of powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), to correctly attribute the photophysically active phase of the bulk material. Interestingly, all investigated powder samples accessed via different preparation methods can be assigned to the pristine solvent-free crystal structure, showing no aurophilic interactions. Finally, the observed strong thermochromism of the solid-state material was investigated by means of variable-temperature PXRD, ruling out a significant phase transition being responsible for the drastic change of the emission properties (hypsochromic shift from 710 nm to 510 nm) when lowering the temperature down to 77 K.

Abstract The connection between austenite/cementite orientation relationships and crystal structure of both phases has been established. The nucleus formation mechanism at the mutual transformation of austenite and cementite structures has been proposed. Mechanism is based on the interpretation of the considered structures as crystallographic tiling onto triangulated polyhedra, and the said tiling can be transformed by diagonal flipping in a rhombus consisting of two adjacent triangular faces. The sequence of diagonal flipping in the fragment of the initial crystal determines the orientation of the fragment of the final crystal relative to the initial crystal. In case of the mutual austenite/cementite transformation the mutual orientation of the initial and final fragments is coinciding to the experimentally observed in steels Thomson-Howell orientation relationships: ${\left\{ {\bar 103} \right\}_{\rm{C}}}||{\left\{ {111} \right\}_{\rm{A}}};{\rm{}} < {\kern 1pt} 010{\kern 1pt} { > _{\rm{C}}}{\rm{||}} < {\kern 1pt} 10\bar 1{\kern 1pt} { > _{\rm{A}}};\; < {\kern 1pt} 30\bar 1{\kern 1pt} { > _{\rm{C}}}\;||\,\, < {\kern 1pt} \bar 12\bar 1{\kern 1pt} { > _{\rm{A}}}{\rm{}}$ The observed orientation relationship between FCC austenite and cementite is determined by crystallographic group-subgroup relationship between transformation participants, and non-crystallographic symmetry which is determining the transformation of triangulated clusters of transformation participants.

The effect of the crystal structure of starting alumina powder and electric pulsing on the initial stages of densification has been studied in the temperature range of 1200– 1500 °C. Multiple electric pulsing cycles enhance the densification significantly. The α-alumina powders consolidate more readily in comparison to γ-alumina powders. A high density α-alumina specimen (>98% of theoretical density) was obtained at 1300 °C in less than 10 min.

A total of 95 crystal structures of CDK2 were selected after considering criteria such as resolution and absence of missing residues in the active site; and subjected to cross-docking. 14 out of 95 crystal structures exhibited docking accuracy for greater than 70% of ligands at RMSD cut off 2Å in the cross- docking studies. These 14 crystal structures were selected for the second part of the study, which included validation using DUD sets and enrichment calculations. 8 out of 14 crystal structures possessed the enrichment factor of >10 at 1% of the ranked database. ROC-AUC, AUAC, RIE, and BEDROC were calculated for these 8 crystal structures. 2WXV produced maximum BEDROC (0.768, at α=8) and RIE (11.22). 2WXV as a single initial crystal structure in the virtual screening protocol is likely to produce more accurate results than any other single crystal structure.

Five distinct crystal structures, based on experimental data or constructed manually, of ionic liquid [C14Mim][NO3] were heated in NPT molecular dynamics simulations under the same pressure such that they melted into the liquid crystal (LC) phase and then into the liquid phase. It was found that the more entropy-favored structure had a higher solid-LC transition temperature: Before the transition into the LC, all systems had to go through a metastable state with the side chains almost perpendicular to the polar layers. All those crystals finally melted into the same smectic-A LC structure irrelevant of the initial crystal structure.

The structural transformations of the natural quartzite under the electron irradiation in doses range of 107…108 Gy in various medium were studied using IR-spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and crystal-optical analyzes. It was established that under the irradiation, both in air and in a water stream, intense crystallization of the amorphous component occurs, which is siliceous cement. The initial crystal structure of quartzite is also improved as a result of radiation annealing of defects and impurities present in the initial quartz. It was found that the water medium significantly accelerates these processes, however, in the studied doses range for both types of irradiation, degradation of the quartzite crystal structure is not observed.

The title sulfoxide, C18H20O2S, was prepared by controlled oxidation of thia-Dianin's compound using hydrogen peroxide in glacial acetic acid. On recrystallization from glacial acetic acid, it was found to form unsolvated, spontaneously resolved crystals, the initial crystal structure analysis revealing the presence of both sulfoxide epimers in the crystal. On multiple recrystallization a single epimer was observed, with crystallization occurring in the unchanged orthorhombic space group P212121, with Z′ = 1. The molecule possesses a distal conformation, referring to the juxtaposition of the p-hydoxyphenyl substituent with respect to its syn-related methyl group, with the sulfoxide oxygen atom anti to the aromatic substituent. The molecular packing features O—H...O hydrogen bond chains running parallel to the b axis of the unit cell.

Lipids containing long polymethylene chains were among the first compounds subjected to electron diffraction structure analysis. It was only recently realized, however, that various distortions of thin lipid microcrystal plates, e.g. bends, polar group and methyl end plane disorders, etc. (1-3), restrict coherent scattering to the methylene subcell alone, particularly if undistorted molecular layers have well-defined end planes. Thus, ab initio crystal structure determination on a given single uncharacterized natural lipid using electron diffraction data can only hope to identify the subcell packing and the chain axis orientation with respect to the crystal surface. In lipids based on glycerol, for example, conformations of long chains and polar groups about the C-C bonds of this moiety still would remain unknown.One possible means of surmounting this difficulty is to investigate structural analogs of the material of interest in conjunction with the natural compound itself. Suitable analogs to the glycerol lipids are compounds based on the three configurational isomers of cyclopentane-1,2,3-triol shown in Fig. 1, in which three rotameric forms of the natural glycerol derivatives are fixed by the ring structure (4-7).
