The crystal structure of phurcalite, Ca2[(UO2)3O2(PO4)2]·7H2O, orthorhombic, a = 17.3785 (9) Å, b = 15.9864 (8) Å, c = 13.5477 (10) Å, V = 3763.8 (4) Å3, space group Pbca, Z = 8 has been refined from single-crystal XRD data to R = 0.042 for 3182 unique [I > 3σ(I)] reflections and the hydrogen-bonding scheme has been refined by theoretical calculations based on the TORQUE method. The phurcalite structure is layered, with uranyl phosphate sheets of the phosphuranylite topology which are linked by extensive hydrogen bonds across the interlayer occupied by Ca2+ cations and H2O groups. In contrast to previous studies the approach here reveals five transformer H2O groups (compared to three expected by a previous study) and two non-transformer H2O groups. One of the transformer H2O groups is, nevertheless, not linked to any metal cation, which is a less frequent type of H2O bonding in solid state compounds and minerals. The structural formula of phurcalite has been therefore redefined as {Ca2(H2 [3]O)5(H2 [4]O)2}[(UO2)3O2(PO4)2], Z = 8.

The crystal structure of ammonium metavanadate, NH4VO3, a compound widely used as a starting material for the synthesis of vanadium and polyoxidovanadate compounds, had been determined twice using single-crystal X-ray data [Syneček & Hanic (1954). Czech. J. Phys. 4, 120–129 (Weissenberg data); Hawthorne & Calvo (1977). J. Solid State Chem. 22, 157–170 (four-circle diffractometer data)]. Its structure is now redetermined at higher resolution using Ag Kα radiation, and the result is compared with the former refinements. Structural data for the polymeric [VO3]∞ chain remain unchanged, while more accurate parameters are obtained for the ammonium cation, improving the description of hydrogen-bonding interactions in the crystal structure.

Atomic Displacement Parameters

The crystal structure of moganite from the Mogán formation on Gran Canaria has been re-investigated using high-resolution synchrotron X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray/neutron pair distribution function (PDF) analyses. Our study for the first time reports the anisotropic atomic displacement parameters (ADPs) of a natural moganite. Rietveld analysis of synchrotron XRD data determined the crystal structure of moganite with the space group I2/a. The refined unit-cell parameters are a = 8.7363(8), b = 4.8688(5), c = 10.7203(9) Å, and β = 90.212(4)°. The ADPs of Si and O in moganite were obtained from X-ray and neutron PDF analyses. The shapes and orientations of the anisotropic ellipsoids determined from X-ray and neutron measurements are similar. The anisotropic ellipsoids for O extend along planes perpendicular to the Si-Si axis of corner-sharing SiO4 tetrahedra, suggesting precession-like movement. Neutron PDF result confirms the occurrence of OH over some of the tetrahedral sites. We postulate that moganite nanomineral is stable with respect to quartz in hypersaline water. The ADPs of moganite show a similar trend as those of quartz determined by single-crystal XRD. In short, the combined methods can provide high-quality structural parameters of moganite nanomineral, including its ADPs and extra OH position at the surface. This approach can be used as an alternative means for solving the structures of crystals that are not large enough for single-crystal XRD measurements, such as fine-grained and nanocrystalline minerals formed in various geological environments.

A novel praseodymium complex C5H13O11Pr has been synthesized from hydrothermal reaction and the crystal structure has been determined by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The Pr1 atom is nine coordinated by nine O atoms. The crystal packing is stabilized by O-H...O hydrogen bonding interactions.

The structure of the layered noncentrosymmetric titanosilicate AM-1 (also known as JDF-L1, disodium titanium tetrasilicate dihydrate), Na4Ti2Si8O22·4H2O, grown as small single crystals without the use of organics, has been refined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. The H atom has been located for the first time, and the hydrogen-bonding scheme is also characterized by IR and Raman spectroscopy. All atoms are in general positions except for the Na, the Ti, one Ti-bound O, one Si-bound O and the water O atoms (site symmetries 2, 4, 4, 2 and 2, respectively).

Phosphorothionic triamide SP(NH2)3 is obtained by slow addition of SPCl3 dissolved in dry CH2Cl2 to a satured solution of NH3 in CH2Cl2 at —50°C. Ammonium chloride is removed from the resulting precipitate by treatment with HNEt2 followed by extraction with CH2Cl2. Coarse crystalline SP(NH2)3 is obtained after recrystallization from dry methanol. The crystal structure of SP(NH2)3 has been determined by single crystal X-ray methods (Pbca; a = 922.3(1), b = 953.8(1), c = 1058.4(2) pm, Z = 8). In the crystals the molecules show non-crystallographic point symmetry C8. The P—S bond (195.4(1) pm) is slightly longer than in SPCl3. From P—N bond lengths of about 166 pm a significant electrostatic strengthening of the P—N single bonds is assumed. Weak intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions (N —H · · · N ≥ 329.5 pm; N — H · · · S ≥ 348.3 pm) are observed.Investigation of thermal properties shows a melting temperature of 115°C for SP(NH2)3. According to combined DTA/TG and MS investigations above this temperature the compound decomposes by evolution of H2S and NH3 to yield amorphous phosphorus(V)nitride.

The Eu

A new Eu complex [Eu (C3O9H6)] ·2(H2O) has been synthesized from a hydrothermal reaction and the crystal structure has been determined by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The Eu atom is coordinated by eight O atoms. The molecular is antisymmetric structure by the C3-C3 axis. It is striking that the structure of the complex exhibits extensive O-H…O hydrogen-bonding interactions.

4-Bromobenzamidrazone reacts with cyclopentanone giving 3-(4-bromophenyl)-5-(4-peroxobutyl)-1,2,4-triazole, which precipitated as pale-yellow crystals during the reaction. The intermolecular noncovalent interactions Br···Br in the single-crystal XRD structure of the peroxo compound were studied theoretically using quantum chemical calculations (ωB97XD/x2c-TZVPPall) and quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) analysis. These attractive intermolecular noncovalent interactions Br···Br is type I halogen···halogen contacts and their estimated energy is 2.2–2.5 kcal/mol. These weak interactions are suggested to be one of the driving forces (albeit surely not the main one) for crystallization of the peroxo compound during the reaction and thus its stabilization in the solid state.
