We discovered a new method to methylate tertiary amines such as urotropine, triethylamine, pyridine, 2-methylpyridine, 4-acetylpyridine, and isonicotinamide, up to quaternary ammonium compounds, with 1,1-dicyano-2-methoxy-2-oxoethane-1-ide being the counterion. Methyl-1,3,5,7-tetraazaadamantan-1-ium 1,1-dicyano-2-methoxy-2-oxoethane-1-ide, N,N-diethyl-N-methylethanaminium 1,1-dicyano-2-methoxy-2-oxoethane-1-ide, and substituted-methylpyridinium 1,1-dicyano-2-methoxy-2-oxoethane-1-ides were synthesized. Quaternary ammonium compounds of 1,1-dicyano-2-methoxy-2-oxothane-1-ide were synthesized within a single stage by stirring methanol solutions of tertiary amines with ethene-1,1,2,2-tetracarbonitrile (ETCN) at room temperature. In the reaction of ETCN with tertiary amines in methanol, processes occur that form the 1,1-dicyano-2-methoxy-2-oxoethane-1-ide fragment with simultaneous N-methylation. Crystal structures based on X-ray diffraction analysis of the obtained compounds were studied.

By reacting [{Cp‴Fe(CO)2}2(µ,η1:1-P4)] (1) with in situ generated phosphenium ions [Ph2P][A] ([A]− = [OTf]− = [O3SCF3]−, [PF6]−), a mixture of two main products of the composition [{Cp‴Fe(CO)2}2(µ,η1:1-P5(C6H5)2)][PF6] (2a and 3a) could be identified by extensive 31P NMR spectroscopic studies at 193 K. Compound 3a was also characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis, showing the rarely observed bicyclo[2.1.0]pentaphosphapentane unit. At room temperature, the novel compound [{Cp‴Fe}(µ,η4:1-P5Ph2){Cp‴(CO)2Fe}][PF6] (4) is formed by decarbonylation. Reacting 1 with in situ generated diphenyl arsenium ions gives short-lived intermediates at 193 K which disproportionate at room temperature into tetraphenyldiarsine and [{Cp‴Fe(CO)2}4(µ4,η1:1:1:1-P8)][OTf]2 (5) containing a tetracyclo[3.3.0.02,7.03,6]octaphosphaoctane ligand.

Copper aluminum disulfide (CuAlS2) powders were synthesized in an evacuated ampoule at elevated temperatures. X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that the powders heated at temperatures higher than 800oC were single-phase CuAlS2. In the cathodoluminescence (CL) spectra measured at room temperature, the powders heated at temperatures higher than 600oC exhibited a visible emission peak at approximately 1.8 eV and a distinct ultraviolet emission peak at 3.45 eV. The powder heated at 700oC showed the maximum intensity of ultraviolet emission which is considered to be associated with excitons.

The V4+ (spin ½) oxovanadates AV3O7 (A = Ca, Sr) were synthesized and studied by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The room-temperature structures of both compounds are orthorhombic and their respective space groups are Pnma and Pmmn. The previously assumed structure of SrV3O7 has been revised and the temperature dependence of both crystal structures in the temperature ranges 297–100 K and 315–100 K, respectively, is discussed for the first time.

The room-temperature (295 K) crystal structures of potassium ferricyanide, K3[Fe(CN)6], have been determined for the simplest monoclinic (a reinvestigation) and orthorhombic polytypes by single- crystal X-ray diffraction. The monoclinic form is P21/c, a 7.047(3), b 10.400(3), c 8.384(3) Ǻ, β 107.29(3)°, Z 2. The iron atoms lie on special positions with symmetry 1. In the orthorhombic form, Pnca, a 13.422(6), b 10.396(4), 8.381(4) Ǻ, Z4, the iron atoms now lie on special positions with symmetry 2 (parallel to c). Residuals are 0.036 and 0.048 for 1232 and 855 'observed' reflections respectively.

AbstractAlthough thienopyridines attract attention because of their biological activities, they have not been used as ligands in coordination compounds. Thieno[2,3-b]pyridine was prepared by known procedures; by reduction of 2-nitrothiophene, and reaction of the resulting 2-thienyl ammonium salt with malondialdehyde tetramethylacetal in the presence of zinc chloride. The same procedure was used for the preparation of a new derivative, 2-methylthieno[2,3-b]pyridine, starting from 2-methyl-5-nitrothiophene. The thienopyridines were used in the synthesis of coordination compounds. Chlorides, isothiocyanates, acetates, and chloroacetates of copper(II), nickel(II), or cobalt(II) were used as starting salts. The prepared complexes were characterized by elemental analysis and FT IR. Structures of the four complexes were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.

1. Some sources of error in the testing of quaternary ammonium compounds for bactericidal activity have been investigated. These resolve themselves into (a) errors caused by bacteriostasis, and (b) errors caused by the clumping of bacteria.2. A suitable technique, free from these errors, is described.3. Cetavlon in 0·1% solution is a powerful bactericide even in the presence of moderate amounts of organic matter.4. One per cent Cetavlon will not kill spores at room temperature even when contact is maintained for several days.5. Bacteria surviving the action of quaternary ammonium compounds retain their virulence.

AbstractOrthorhombic dysprosium orthogallate DyGaO3 and trigonal gallium orthoborate GaBO3 were synthesized in a Walker-type multianvil apparatus under high-pressure/high-temperature conditions of 8.5 GPa/1350 °C and 8 GPa/700 °C, respectively. Both crystal structures could be determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction data collected at room temperature. The orthorhombic dysprosium orthogallate crystallizes in the space group Pnma (Z = 4) with the parameters a = 552.6(2), b = 754.5(2), c = 527.7(2) pm, V = 0.22002(8) nm3, R1 = 0.0309, and wR2 = 0.0662 (all data) and the trigonal compound GaBO3 in the space group R3̅c (Z = 6) with the parameters a = 457.10(6), c = 1419.2(3) pm, V = 0.25681(7) nm3, R1 = 0.0147, and wR2 = 0.0356 (all data).
