AbstractSupposed 'merlinoite' crystals from Monte Somma, Vesuvius (Italy) and Fosso Attici, north of Rome (Italy) represent highly twinned coherent intergrowths between merlinoite and phillipsite on a submicroscopic level. The MER (Immm, a ≈ 14.1, b ≈ 14.2, c ≈ 9.9 Å) and PHI (P 21/m, a ≈ 9.9, b ≈ 14.3, c ≈ 8.7 Å, β = 124.8°) frameworks of similar composition are assembled from identical tetrahedral units, though with a different connectivity. Coherent intergrowth and twinning of the two frameworks lead to P42/mnm pseudosymmetry, which is diagnostic of the intergrowth. Under ambient conditions merlinoite has Immm symmetry or I4/mmm if twinned. a low-symmetry model of space group P121/m1 (a ≈ 14.2, b ≈ 14.2, c ≈ 10 Å, β = 90°) allows structure refinement and quantification of the two frameworks.Upon in situ dehydration to 250°C the evolution of the unit-cell volume of the Monte Somma merlinoite/phillipsite intergrowth displays an intermediate trend between previously studied pure merlinoite from the Khibiny massif (Russia) and Ba-rich phillipsite.The Monte Somma crystal studied by temperature-dependent single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods also contained a subordinate chabazite inclusion with no coherent structural relationship to the merlinoite/phillipsite framework. Thus, the modification of the chabazite framework on dehydration could also be studied.

An crystal-growth technique for single crystal x-ray structure analysis of high-pressure forms of hydrogen-bonded crystals is proposed. We used alcohol mixture (methanol: ethanol = 4:1 in volumetric ratio), which is a widely used pressure transmitting medium, inhibiting the nucleation and growth of unwanted crystals. In this paper, two kinds of single crystals which have not been obtained using a conventional experimental technique were obtained using this technique: ice VI at 1.99 GPa and MgCl<sub>2</sub>·7H<sub>2</sub>O at 2.50 GPa at room temperature. Here we first report the crystal structure of MgCl2·7H2O. This technique simultaneously meets the requirement of hydrostaticity for high-pressure experiments and has feasibility for further in-situ measurements.

The ternary antimonides RE4T7Sb6 (RE=Gd-Lu; T =Ru, Rh) have been synthesized from the elements by arc-melting and subsequent annealing in an induction furnace. The samples have been characterized by powder X-ray diffraction. Four structures were refined on the basis of single-crystal X-ray diffractometer data: U4Re7Si6 type, space group Im3m with a=862.9(2) pm, wR2=0.0296, 163 F2 values for Er4Ru7Sb6; a=864.1(1) pm, wR2=0.1423, 153 F2 values for Yb4Ru7Sb6; a=872.0(2) pm, wR2=0.0427, 172 F2 values for Tb4Rh7Sb6; and a=868.0(2) pm, wR2=0.0529, 154 F2 values for Er4Rh7Sb6, with 10 variables per refinement. The structures have T1@Sb6 octahedra and slightly distorted RE@T26Sb6 cuboctahedra as building units. The distorted cuboctahedra are condensed via all trapezoidal faces, and this network leaves octahedral voids for the T1 atoms. The ruthenium-based series of compounds was studied by temperature-dependent magnetic susceptibility measurements. Lu4Ru7Sb6 is Pauli-paramagnetic. The antimonides RE4Ru7Sb6 with RE=Dy, Ho, Er, and Tm show Curie-Weiss paramagnetism. Antiferromagnetic ordering occurs at 10.0(5), 5.1(5) and 4.0(5) K for Dy4Ru7Sb6, Ho4Ru7Sb6 and Er4Ru7Sb6, respectively, while Tm4Ru7Sb6 remains paramagnetic. Yb4Ru7Sb6 is an intermediate-valent compound with a reduced magnetic moment of 3.71(1) μB per Yb as compared to 4.54 μB for a free Yb3+ ion

AbstractAn ultrasound-promoted green protocol to access a new series of spirocyclopropanes from indeno[1,2-b]quinoxaline derivatives and azomethine ylides, generated in situ from the iodine-catalyzed reaction of acetophenones as well as of 2-methylquinoline with pyridine in the presence of a base, is described. These transformations proceed via a spirocyclopropanation reaction followed by elimination of pyridine. Clear evidence for the structure of a spirocyclopropane-linked indenoquinoxaline derivative was obtained from single-crystal X-ray analysis. The most important feature of this reaction is the fact it forms three stereogenic centers, one of which is quaternary, with excellent selectivity.
