Novel halogen bonded cocrystals of aromatic aldehydes have been synthesized. We present the halogen bond acceptor potential of the aldehyde group oxygen atom in competition with the hydroxy, methoxy and pyridine groups.

A coordination compound constructed from a nitronyl nitroxide biradical NITPh(3-NIT) and CuII(hfac)2(H2O)2 building blocks [NITPh(3-NIT) = 1,3-bis(1′-oxyl-3′-oxido-4′,4′, 5′, 5′-tetramethyl-4,5-dihydro-1 H-imidazol-2-y1)-benzene, hfac = hexafluoroacetylacetonato] is successfully synthesized. The crystal structure is determined by X-ray single-crystal diffraction. The asymmetric complex {[(NITPh(3-NIT)]Cu(hfac)2} consists of one Cu(II) ion and two >N–O• groups and adopts a distorted triangular bipyramid with a penta-coordinated central copper(II) atom and three hfac oxygen atoms at the base and a >N–O• oxygen atom and one hfac oxygen atom at the apices. Intramolecular O. . .O bonding and π–π stacking interactions are observed between molecules. A magnetic susceptibility study of the coordination compound shows antiferromagnetic interactions between Cu(II) ions and >N–O• groups and very weak ferromagnetic interactions between Cu(II) ions and the free >N–O• group through O. . .O bonding between the nitroxide group oxygen atom and the oxygen atom of hfac.

The infrared spectra of 2,6-dimethyl-4-pyrone in solution, and in complexes with HgCl2, ZnCl2, BF3, SbCl5, and HBr have been recorded. A band at 1639 cm−1 in the free pyrone moves to progressively lower frequencies in the complexes as the Lewis acid strength increases, identifying this band as the carbonyl stretching frequency and the donor site as the carbonyl group. A higher-frequency band, at 1678 cm−1 in the free pyrone, moves to lower frequency on complex formation, but to a much smaller extent, and is to be identified with a stretching mode of the ring. The site of protonation in 2,6-dimethyl-4-pyrone salts has been unequivocally shown to be the carbonyl oxygen atom.

Single-crystal room-temperature X-ray studies on hydrated specimens (deposited from aqueous solutions) of the sequence of trivalent lanthanoid picrates La → Tb have shown, with certain qualifications/reservations discussed herein and in Parts III and IV following, their existence as dodecahydrates in two closely related but subtly different monoclinic P21/c structural types. Nd → Tb generally conform to a 'low-β' type: a 7.767(1) → 7.603(3), b 27.525(9) → 27.440(10), c 18.198(11) → 18.182(8) Ǻ, β 105.11(3) → 105.18(4)°, V 3712(3) → 3674(3) Ǻ3, Z = 4 formula units, while La → Pr are a 'higher-β' type: a 7.933(1) → 7.9435(9), b 26.856(6) → 26.74(1), c 18.244(6) → 18.215(2) Ǻ, β 107.96(2) → 108.238(8)°, V 3697(2) → 3675(2) Ǻ3, Z = 4 formula units; the latter form is frequently found partially desolvated toward the undecahydrate without loss of crystal integrity, as water is lost from tunnels in the lattice, with the actual hydrate stoichiometry dependent on the history of the specimen. In both sets of compounds, similar complex species [ Ln ( pic )2(OH2)6]+ are observed, with one picrate uncoordinated as counter ion, and six lattice water molecules. The lanthanoid ion is >8-coordinate, one of the coordinated picrate moieties being quasi-bidentate , with an ortho-nitro group oxygen atom having a long contact to the metal atom in both series.

The oxygenation of YBa2Cu3O7−x (YBCO) leads to an orthorhombic distortion of the unit cell to accommodate the extra oxygen atom. This makes the formation of twins energetically favourable with CuO4 planar unit chains running alternately along the a and b axes of the parent tetragonal structure. The geometry of this twinning is such that four possible twin variants may co-exist with the twin boundaries lying in the (110) or (110) planes of the deformed structure. The traces of these planes are not mutually perpendicular and thus the crystal is strained to allow for the mismatch. It is to the nature of this strain field that this work has been addressed.Sintered samples were prepared by crushing and dispersing the resultant powder onto a very fine Cu mesh grid. Single crystals were chemically thinned to perforation. No discernible artefacts were seen and similar results were obtained with either method.
