(NH4)2TeBr6 and Cs2TeBr6 crystals have the cubic K2PtCl6 structure with space group: [Formula: see text] with a0 = 10.728 ± 0.003 Å and 10.918 ± 0.002 Å respectively. The positional coordinate of the bromine atom, and the anisotropic temperature factors of all atoms in the unit cell, have been refined for both crystals by a full matrix least-squares analysis of the three dimensional X-ray diffraction data (R = 0.08). The Te—Br distance, corrected for probable thermal motions of atoms forming the bond, is 2.70 ± 0.01 Å in both crystals.

The following substituted 2-phenyl-4H-1-benzopyran-4-ones have been isolated from the dried flowers of Combretum quadrangulare Kurz ( Combretaceae ): 5-hydroxy-3,3′,4′,5′,7-pentamethoxy ( combretol ) (1), 3′,5-dihydroxy-3,4′,7-trimethoxy ( ayanin ) (2) and 4′,5-dihydroxy- 3,3′,5′,7-tetramethoxy (3). The last substance (3) was obtained as a mixture of two polymorphic forms (α and β) each of which was characterized by X-ray diffraction. Diffractometer data at 295 K were refined by full matrix least squares to residuals of 0.043 (1181 'observed' reflections) for the α-phase and 0.044 (1421) for the β phase of (3). Crystals of the α-phase of (3) are triclinic, Pī, a 12.663(6), b 9.592(4), c 7.444(4) Ǻ, α 102.48(3), β 101.39(4), γ 91.72(4)°,Z 2. Crystals of the β-phase of (3) are monoclinic P21/n, a 17.139(8), b 12.728(6), c 7.845(7) Ǻ, β 95.07(6)°, Z 4. An unambiguous synthesis of (3) was also achieved.

The crystal structures of the title compounds, [Ni(OH2)4(en)] [SO4].2H2O, (1), and [Ni(OH2)4(bpy)]- [SO4].2H2O, (2), have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods at 295 K, being refined by full matrix least-squares methods to residuals of 0.028,0.031 for 1852, 4323 independent 'observed' reflections respectively. Crystals of (1) are monoclinic, C2/c, a 9.459(4), b 12.192(7), c 12.294(3) �, β 119.84(4)�, Z 4. In the cation, Ni-N is 2.061(2) �; Ni-O (trans to O, N respectively) are 2.106(2), 2.063(2) �. Instead of being enlarged above 90� as predicted from repulsion theory, the angle between the pair of oxygen atoms trans to nitrogen is diminished, being 87 14(7)�. Crystals of (2) are triclinic, P1, a 11.476(5), b 9.351(5), c 7.793(4) �, α 77.63(4), β 83.52(3), γ87.40(4)�, Z 2. In the cation, Ni-N are both 2.063(2) �. Ni-O (trans to N, O respectively) are 2.060(2), 2.O42(2); 2.O80(2), 2�. The short Ni-O distance [2.042(2)�] is associated with the coordination of a trigonal water molecule.

SummaryThe crystal structure of galeite from Searles Lake (California) has been determined by means of X-ray diffraction data on a single crystal. A possible structure was derived from that of schairerite on the basis of chemical and lattice analogies and was confirmed by comparison of the observed diffractometric structure factors with the calculated ones. The refinement was performed by least-squares methods employing isotropic thermal parameters and assuming that atoms related by translational pseudosymmetry exhibit equal thermal parameters. The final R value is 0·09. The cell content is 3[Na15(SO4)5F4Cl]; the space group is P31m The lattice dimensions are a 12·197(4)Å, c 13·955(10) Å The marked subcell has P3m1 symmetry and a 7·042Å, c 13·955 Å. The crystal structure of galeite consists of a three-dimensional framework, formed by coordination octahedra around Na+ ions, including tetrahedral holes with sulphur atoms at the centres. The three-dimensional framework can be considered built up by five octahedral sheets (seven sheets can be recognized in schairerite and six in sulphohalite). The very close analogies occurring in the structures of galeite and schairerite are discussed.

AbstractMg/Fe order in olivine has been determined by X-ray diffraction data, for example by Wenk and Raymond (1973). We have now studied the dependence of the Mg/Fe order vs. oxygen partial pressure. Two natural olivine samples of volcanic origin containing respectively 10 and 12 % fayalite were selected. The atomic positions, anisotropic temperature factors, extinction coefficient and site occupancies have been refined toThese experiments seem to indicate that the prevailing oxygen partial pressure determines the different Mg/Fe order found in natural olivine crystals.
