Reversible Phase

At 228 K crystals of ZnI2(dmf)2 show a reversible phase transition which does not disrupt the lattice. Above the transition temperature the space group is C2/c and the cell contains eight symmetrically equivalent molecules. Cooling to below the transition temperature has little effect on the cell parameters or on the Zn- and I-atom positions, but the space group is now P21/n and the asymmetric unit comprises two conformationally different molecules. These arise from cooperative rotations of either ca +25 or −43° about the Zn—O bond of one of the dmf ligands in the high-temperature form. This displacive transition involves large movements of some atoms. The corresponding chloride and bromide are isomorphous with the higher temperature C2/c form, but it is only with the iodide that the weaker intermolecular forces permit the unusual phase change. The transition has been followed by differential scanning calorimetry, which gives an enthalpy change of 1.44 (5) kJ mol−1.

Pyridinium-3-carboxylic acid perchlorate was synthesized and separated as crystals. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurements show that this compound undergoes a reversible phase transition at ∼ 135 K with a wide hysteresis of 15 K. Dielectric measurements confirm the transition at ∼ 127 K. Measurement of the unit-cell parameters versus temperature shows that the values of the c axis and β angle change abruptly and remarkably at 129 (2) K, indicating that the system undergoes a first-order transition at T c = 129 K. The crystal structures determined at 103 and 298 K are all monoclinic in P21/c, showing that the phase transition is isosymmetric. The crystal contains one-dimensional hydrogen-bonded chains of the pyridinium-3-carboxylic acid cations, which are further linked to perchlorate anions by hydrogen bonds to form well separated infinite planar layers. The most distinct differences between the structures of the higher-temperature phase and the lower-temperature phase are the change of the distance between the adjacent pyridinium ring planes within the hydrogen-bonded chains and the relative displacement between the hydrogen-bonded layers. Structural analysis shows that the driving force of the transition is the reorientation of the pyridinium-3-carboxylic acid cations. The degree of order of the perchlorate anions may be a secondary order parameter.

Reversible Phase Transition

Pyridinium-4-carboxylic acid perchlorate (C6H6NO2·ClO4) was synthesized and separated as crystals. Differential scanning calorimetry measurement shows that this compound undergoes a reversible phase transition at about 122 K with a heat hysteresis of 1.8 K. A dielectric anomaly observed at 127 K further confirms the phase transition. The low-temperature (LT;T= 103 K) structure has space groupP21/cand cell parametersa= 17.356 (6),b= 13.241 (3),c= 16.161 (7) Å, β = 138.055 (17)°. The high-temperature (HT;T= 298 K) structure has space groupP21/cand cell parametersa= 5.5046 (11),b= 13.574 (3),c= 11.834 (2) Å, β = 99.35 (3)°, but can be re-described using new axesa′ =a,b′ =b,c′ = −2a+c,V′ =Vto give the cella′ = 5.5046 (11),b′ = 13.574 (3),c′ = 17.424 (3) Å, β′ = 137.92 (3)° and space groupP21/c. The associated coordinate transformation isx′ =x+ 2z,y′ =y,z′ =zand the associated reflection index transformation ish′ =h,k′ =k,l′ =l− 2h. The relationship between the two cells is 3a,b,c(HT) approximatesa,b,c(LT). The crystal comprises one-dimensional hydrogen-bonded chains of the pyridinium-4-carboxylic acid cations and perchlorate anions. A precise analysis of the main packing and structural differences as well as the changes in the intermolecular interactions between the HT phase and the LT phase reveals that the disorder–order transition of the perchlorate anions may be the driving force of the transition, and the hydrogen-bonding effect may contribute to the transition as a secondary parameter.

AbstractTwo molybdates MIV (MoO4)2 (with MIV = Hf or Zr) were synthesized by solid state reaction between MIVO2 and MoO3. Zirconium molybdate undergoes a reversible phase transition at 952 K.Hf(MoO4)2 and H.T. Zr(MoQ4)2, obtained as single crystals, are trigonal, space group with Z = 6; the cell dimensions are respectively a = 10.1005(3), c = 11.7230(5)Å; V = 1035.76(11)Å3; Dm(298 K) = 4.78(4), Dx = 4.792 Mg m−3 and a = 10.1409(3), c = 11.7097(5)Å; V = 1042.88(11)Å3; Dm (298 K) = 3.91(4), Dx = 3.926 Mg m−3.L.T. Zr(MoO4)2, indexed by the Visser automatic indexing program (1969) was found to be monoclinic, possible space group P2, P21 or Pm with Z = 4; the cell dimensions are a = 9.7557(5), b = 7.9373(5), c = 7.4631(4)Å, β = 97.959°(5); V = 572.3(5)Å Dm(298 K) = 4.74(5), Dx = 4.770 Mg m−3. Powder diffraction data were obtained at 293 K on a counter diffractometer with Ni-filtered copper radiation ( = 1.5418 Å).

Reversible Phase

Stimuli-responsive materials with coexisting nonlinear optical (NLO) and dielectric properties are technologically important, which enable simultaneous conversion of optoelectronic properties between different states under external stimuli. By rationally screening guest cations (C6H5NF2)+ in the crown-ether inclusion system, we synthesized a crown-ether supramolecular compound [(C6H5NF2)(18-crown-6)][PF6] (1). Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) showed that 1 undergoes a reversible phase transition above room temperatures (305 K/292 K), with a thermal hysteresis of 13 K. Temperature-dependent dielectric and NLO measurements show that the compound exhibits two distinct switching response behaviors. Structural analysis indicates that the order–disorder change of the host molecule 18-crown-6 and the guest organic cation during the phase transition induces the dielectric and NLO switching behavior of the compound.

Presented herein are detailed optical, thermal, spectroscopic and structural analyses of the phase transformation occurring in tapentadol hydrochloride (C14H24NO+·Cl−), a phenomenon already reported [Fischer et al. (2006); Patent: WO 2006000441 A2]. The thermal behaviour of the compound was studied using single-crystal X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry and Raman scattering measurements. The compound undergoes a first-order reversible phase transition at T heat = 318.0 (1) K, T cool = 300.0 (1) K, as assessed by the coexistence of both phases in the vicinity of the transition and the abrupt changes observed in the unit-cell parameters with temperature. The process is accompanied by clear thermosalient behaviour, with a conspicuous movement of the samples. On cooling, the transformation leads from a P212121 symmetry (Z′ = 1) to P21, with an abrupt change in β [90 ↔ 94.78 (1)°] and duplication of the asymmetric unit contents (Z′ = 2). The main structural differences observed across the transition are extremely small, with almost no changes in the stronger, non-covalent interaction scheme involving the `conventional' (N—H...Cl, O—H...Cl) hydrogen bonds.

The title compound C7H6Br2 (also called 3,5-dibromotoluene) is orthorhombic, space group P212121 with a = 14.426(2), b = 13.636(2), c = 4.076(1) Å, V = 801.8(3) Å3, Z = 4, Dx = 2.071 Mg m−3. The space group and preliminary cell parameters have been determined by single-crystal diffraction methods (Bragg, Weissenberg and precession patterns). The cell dimensions have been refined by least squares from accurate powder diffractometer data recorded at T = 293(1) K (quartz as internal standard, Cu Kα 1−Kα 2 correction so that λ = 1.54056 Å). The indexed powder data are given. No phase transition is detected between 123 K and the melting point 311.1(2) K (differential scanning calorimetry and Guinier–Lenné analysis). The results show that 1,3-dibromo-5-methylbenzene is isomorphous with 1,3,5-trichlorobenzene and 1,3,5-tribromobenzene. The JCPDS Diffraction File No. For C7H6Br2 is 36-1991.

The atomic coordinates of K2(NbO)2Si4O12reported in space groupP4bmsatisfy the structural criteria for ferroelectricity. The estimated phase-transition temperature,Tc= 2230 (250) K, is substantially in excess ofTmelting= 1476 (5) K; the hypothetical paraelectric phase in space groupP4/mbmis hence experimentally inaccessible. A strong indication that the phase transition does not occur atT<Tmeltingis provided by the absence of both calorimetric and dielectric permittivity anomalies belowTmelting, the linear thermal dependence of unit-cell parameters with expansion coefficients α11= –0.53 (12) × 10–6and α33= 24.66 (11) × 10–6 K–1between 5 and 843 K, and the generation of second harmonics between 300 and 1353 K. Demonstration of dielectric hysteresis under both direct and alternating current, with spontaneous polarizationPs≃ 0.2 C m–2, provides unambiguous verification of the ferroelectric property.

Reversible Phase

This paper focuses on the structural change and the thermochromism of the phase transition of the hybrid (C12H25NH3)2FeCl4. The temperature and the structures of the phase transition is investigated by a thermal gravimetry (TG) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), an infrared spectra (IR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns. The UV adsorption spectra account for the thermochromism. The results suggest that the reversible phase transition arises from the structural changes of the organic chains. The thermochromism is presumably due to the electrons redistribution on the levels and to the energy transition to translational and rotational motions of the organic chains.

The crystal structure determination based on 90 K data of the title imine ligand, C18H10ClNO, revealed non-merohedral twinning with three twin domains. In our experience, this is an indication of an ordering phase transition. Consequently, the structure was redetermined with higher temperature data, and a reversible phase transition was discovered. The higher temperature phase is indeed an ordered structure. At the higher temperature, the 4-chlorophenyl group has rotated by ca 7° into a crystallographic mirror plane. Warming the crystal from 90 K to 250 K changes the space group from triclinic P-1, to monoclinic P21/m. Diverse non-classical interactions are present in the crystal packing, and these are described for the phase change reported in this work. The crystal structure of the title imine ligand, measured at 100 K, has been reported on previously [Kovach et al. (2011). J. Mol. Struct. 992, 33–38].

We have reinvestigated the solid state structure of 1,1'-bis-(ferrocenyldimethylsilyl)ferrocenylene, (η5-FcSiMe2C5H4)2Fe, Fc = (η5-C5H5)Fe(η5-C5H4). Using a DSC technique we observed a reversible phase transition for this compound at 169(3)K with ΔH = 1.1 kJ/mol, and ΔS = 6.54 J/mol K. A single crystal X-ray diffraction study has demonstrated that this phase change involves a transformation from a high temperature phase, space group P21/c, Z = 2, to a triclinic low temperature phase, space group P[Formula: see text], Z = 4. The phase transition involves the loss of the molecular crystallographic center of symmetry and rotations about the terminal and central cyclopentadienyl ring pairs. The results are compared to those reported for ferrocene.Key words: solid state, phase transition, silyleneferrocenylene.
