(E)-9-(2-Nitropropeny1)anthracene and (E)-9-(2-nitro-2-phenylethenyl)anthracene have been prepared by piperidine-catalysed condensation of 9-anthraldehyde with nitroethane and nitro(phenyl)methane, respectively. The corresponding (Z)-compounds were obtained by photochemical isomerization, quantum yields of geometrical isomerlzation being measured in cyclohexane, benzene, dichloromethane and ethanol. In virtually all solvents the (Z)-isomers are favoured at the photostationary state. The structures of (E)- and (2)-942- nitro-2-phenylethenyl)anthracene have been established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies.

Single-crystal X-ray diffraction structure determinations are reported for three reaction products and photoisomers formed from reactions between an o-diphenoquinone valence isomer and primary and secondary amines, namely: 3,5-di-t-butyl-7-(3,5-di-t-butyl-2-hydroxyphenyl)-1-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-azepin-2-one (8; R1 = R2 = But, R3 = Me), its photochemical isomerization product 4,6-di-t-butyl-1-(3,5-di-t-butyl-2-hydroxyphenyl)-2-methyl-2-azabicyclo[3,2,0]hept-6-en-3-one (9; R1 = R2 = But, R3 = Me) and 4',5,7-tri-t-butyl-3'-(2,2-dimethylpropionyl)-1'-methylspiro[benzofuran-3(2H)-2'- pyrrolidinel-2,5'-dione (12; R1 = R2 = But, R3 = Me).

The molecular structures of ethyl di-9-anthrylglycolate (1) and methyl di-9-anthrylglycolate (2), as well as those of three isomerization products of (2), have been established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. In both (1) and (2), the anthracenemoieties are characterized by marked deviations from planarity. The stereospecific course of the thermal and photochemical isomerization of (2) by Diels -Alder reaction is suggested to be governed by the spatial demand of the alkoxycarbonyl group. Base-catalysed isomerization of (2) by migration of 9-anthryl from carbon to oxygen is associated with steric relief.

AbstractThis study focuses on the preparation, single crystal X-ray diffraction, characterization, and optical properties of some anthraquinone-based dyes. The anthraquinone-based antimicrobial dye N-{2-[(9,10-dioxo-9,10-dihydroanthracen-1-yl)amino]-2-oxoethyl}-N,N-dimethylbutan-1-aminium chloride monohydrate (III) was obtained from 1-aminoanthraquinone (I) via 2-chloro-N-(9,10-dioxo-9,10-dihydroanthracen-1-yl)acetamide (II) using known preparation and characterization methods. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of III revealed a monoclinic system, space group P21/n, Z = 4. Photoluminescence properties of anthraquinone dyes I–III were also investigated. These dyes gave an intense emission (λmax = 341 nm) upon the irradiation by UV light and showed photoluminescence quantum yields of 73 %, 66 %, and 61 % with long excited-state lifetimes of 6.87 ns, 6.14 ns, and 5.69 ns, respectively. These anthraquinone dyes are of interest as an organic light emitting material for electroluminescent devices.

Uniaxial compression tests and hydrostatic tests at pressures up to 27 kbars have been performed to determine operating slip systems in single crystal and polycrystal1ine beryllium. A recent study has been made of wave propagation in single crystal beryllium by shock loading to selectively activate various slip systems, and this has been followed by a study of wave propagation and spallation in textured, polycrystal1ine beryllium. An alteration in the X-ray diffraction pattern has been noted after shock loading, but this alteration has not yet been correlated with any structural change occurring during shock loading of polycrystal1ine beryllium.This study is being conducted in an effort to characterize the effects of shock loading on textured, polycrystal1ine beryllium. Samples were fabricated from a billet of Kawecki-Berylco hot pressed HP-10 beryllium.

On treatment of the [(1,2-C2B9H11)2Co]- ion with naphthalene in presence of AlCl3 a remarkably bridged [8,8'-μ-(CH2-C9H6)-(1,2-C2B9H10)2-3-Co]- ion is obtained as a single isolated compound. The triatomic -CH2-C9H6- bridge is derived from the rearranged naphthalene nucleus. The mechanism of this reaction is obscure but it does resemble the "Electrophile-Induced Nucleophilic Substitution" reported earlier. The structure of the compound was established by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and by single crystal X-ray diffraction.
