The crystal structures of 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid (NDA) and dimethyl 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylate (NDC) have been solved ab initio using a combination of X-ray powder diffraction and computational chemistry techniques. These two crystal structures, and that of 2,6-dimethylnaphthalene (DMN), have been refined by the Rietveld technique. DMN crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbca, with a = 7.4544 (4), b = 6.0826 (6), c = 20.0946 (12) Å, V = 911.1 (1) Å3 and Z = 4. The structure consists of a herringbone stacking parallel to a, resulting in loosely bound layers perpendicular to c. NDA crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1¯, with a = 3.7061 (8), b = 7.4688 (14), c = 8.5352 (22) Å, α = 86.62 (2), β = 85.49 (2), γ = 87.99 (2)°, V = 235.00 (6) Å3 and Z = 1. The structure consists of loosely packed hydrogen-bonded chains along [11¯1]. NDC crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c, with a = 13.41931 (14), b = 6.14869 (5), c = 7.15257 (5) Å, β = 100.400 (1)°, V = 580.47 (1) Å3 at 300 K and Z = 2. The structure consists of layers of NDC molecules perpendicular to a. The ester group is twisted 20° out of the mean ring plane in NDC. The conformations of the carboxyl groups in NDA and NDC differ. MP2 calculations suggest that the observed twist in NDC corresponds to an increase in conformational energy of 9 kJ mol−1.

The B6 octahedra are compressed in the direction of the B-I bonds, resulting in shortened diagonal B ··· B distances with average values of the groups I-B ··· B-I = 2.37 and I-B ··· B-H = 2.43 Å as compared with H-B ··· B-H = 2.49 Å.

Four novel norditerpenoids were isolated from a new encrusting sponge, conveniently labelled Aplysilla pallida. The structures of aplypallidenone (1), aplypallidoxone (2), aplypallidione (3) and aplypallidioxone (4) were elucidated by spectroscopic studies and the crystal structures of aplypallidenone and aplypallidoxone have been determined by X-ray diffraction methods. The structure of (1) was refined to a residual of 0·040 for 1665 independent observed reflections and the structure of (2) was refined to a residual of 0·031 for 1699 independent observed reflections. The crystals of (1) are orthorhombic, space group P212121, a 7·728(2), b 10·838(4), c 24·880(5) Å, Z 4. Those of (2) are monoclinic, space group C 2, a 23·927(7), b 6·674(2), c 14·033(3) Å, Z 4.

The preparation and solid state characterization of the bifunctional radical furan-2,5-bis(1,2,3,5-dithiadiazolyl) 2,5-[(S2N2C)OC4H2(CN2S2)] and the related monofunctional radical 2-cyanofuran-5-(1,2,3,5-dithiadiazolyl) 2,5-[(S2N2C)OC4H2(CN)] are described. The crystal structure of 2,5-[(S2N2C)OC4H2(CN2S2)] is orthorhombic, space group Pna21, and consists of interleaved arrays of dimers, for which the mean interannular [Formula: see text] contact is 3.137 Å. The crystal structure of the monofunctional radical 2,5-[(S2N2C)OC4H2(CN)] is monoclinic, space group P21/n, and consists of a ribbon-like network of dimers (mean interannular [Formula: see text] interconnected by close head-to-tail [Formula: see text] contacts. The dimer units form stacks parallel to z, with a mean interdimer [Formula: see text] separation of 3.956 Å. The similarities and differences between these two crystal structures and those of related benzene-substituted systems are discussed. Keywords: dithiadiazolyl radicals, furan-based diradicals, cyanofuran-based radicals, radical dimers, crystal structures.

AbstractThe crystal structure of hydrothermally synthesized Rb-feldspar (monoclinic, space group C2/m, a= 8.839(2)Å, b= 13.035(2)Å, c= 7.175(2)Å, β = 116.11(1)8, V= 742.3(3)Å3, Z= 4) has been refined to a final R of 0.0574 for 692 independent X-ray reflections. Microprobe analyses of the Rb-feldspar suggest deviation from stoichiometry, with excess Si and Al, resulting in a unit formula of Rb0.811□0.127Al1.059Si3.003O8. Infrared (IR) spectra indicate the structural occupancy of large H2O content, which implies that the □Si4O8 substitution favours the structural incorporation of the H2O molecule at the M-site. The mean T–O distances are 1.632 Å for T1 and 1.645 Å for T2, revealing highly disordered (Al,Si) distribution with Al/Si = 0.245/0.755 (T1 site) and 0.255/0.745 (T2 site).There are two geochemical implications from this refinement: (1) identification of both rubicline triclinic with (Al,Si) ordered distribution and synthetic monoclinic RbAlSi3O8 with (Al,Si) disordered distribution implies that Rb cannot be one of factors disrupting the (Al,Si) ordered and disordered distributions in feldspars; and (2) natural and synthetic feldspars capable of accommodating the large cations tend to incorporate □Si4O8, excess Al and H2O components in their crystal structures.

The crystal structures of trans-[PtCl2(acac)2](monoclinic, space group P21/c, a - 7.616(5), b = 12.759(5), c = 7.892(5) Å, β = 118.459(5)°, Z = 2), trans-[PtBr2(acac)2] (triclinic, space group P1̅, a = 7.502(5), b = 7.665(5), c = 8.155(5) Å, α = 114~508(5), β = 94.537(5), γ = 117.669(5)°. Z = 1) and trans-[Pt(SCN)2(acac)2] (triclinic, space group P1̅ , a = 7.9095(10), b = 7.9393( 10), c = 7.9631 Å, a = 114.051 (10), β = 100.955(10), γ = 100.573(10)°, Z = 1) have been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The crystal structure of trans- [Ptl2(acac)2] is known from the literature. To enhance the spectroscopic resolution, the IR and Raman spectra of the four complexes have been measured at low temperature (10 K). Using the X-ray data, normal coordinate analyses based on a modified valence force field have been performed and the normal modes of vibration for the octahedral skeleton [PtX2O4] have been assigned. With a set of 19 or 23 force constants taking into account the inner-ligand vibrations a good agreement between observed and calculated frequencies has been achieved. The valence force constants are e.g.fd (PtCl) = 2.16, fd (PtBr) = 1.45, fd (PtI) = 1.01, fd (PtS) = 1.80 mdyn/Å, and fd (PtO) ranges from 1.89 to 1.91 mdyn/Å.

The title compounds were obtained from NiS + PPh4Cl + HCl in dichloromethane, from NiCl2 and PPh4Cl and from NiCl2 + Na2S + 15-crown-5 in acetonitrile or CH2Cl2, respectively. Their crystal structures were determined by X-ray diffraction. (PPh4)2[NiCl4]: monoclinic, space group C 2/c, Z = 4, a = 1094.9(3), b = 1946.1(4), c = 2033.5(5) pm, β = 91.48(3)°; R = 0.07 for 2895 unique observed reflexions. [Na-15-crown-5]2[NiCl4]: triclinic, space group P1̄, Z = 2, a = 987.6(1), b = 998.0(1), c = 1779.9(2) pm, α = 104.17(1), β = 95.43(1), γ = 109.95(1)°; R = 0.090 for 4155 unique observed reflexions. In both cases, the [NiCl4]2- ions have distorted tetrahedral structures. With PPh4+ as the cation the distortion corresponds to a twisted tetrahedron which fulfils the point symmetry D2, the deviation from a flattened D2d-tetrahedron being small. In (PPh4)2[NiCl4] cations and anions alternate in layers parallel to (001). In [Na-15-crown-5]2[NiCl4] two of the Cl atoms of the anion are coordinated to sodium ions; one of the crown ether molecules shows positional disorder.

Abstract The treatment of [B6H6]2- with an excess of (SCN)2 in dichloromethane in the presence of solid KOH gives the hexaisoselenocyanatodiborate anion [B2(NCSe)6]2- as an intermediate (δ(11B) = -10.3 ppm), from which [BH(NCSe)3]- and elemental selenium are formed. The X-ray structure determinations on single crystals of (n-Bu4N)2[BH(NCSe)3] (1) (triclinic, space group Pi with a = 8.512(2), b = 10.885(3), c = 14.895(4) Å, α = 79.52(2), β = 74.86(2), γ = 86.768(2)°, Z = 2) and (Ph4P)[B3H7(NCSe)] (2) (monoclinic, space group C2, a = 7.686(5), b = 10.366(3), c = 17.533(3) A, β = 108.89°, Z = 4) show that the selenocyanate groups are coordinated exclusively via the N atoms with average bond lengths of B-N = 1.52, C-N = 1.15, C-Se = 1.75 A and angles N-C-Se = 179°, B-N-C = 168.7 - 176.8°. The N-B-N angles of 1 range from 107.5 to 109.5°.
