The crystal structure of the semiconductors TlFeSe 2 and TlFeS 2 has been studied by mean of neutron diffraction at room temperature and high pressure up to 4.2 GPa and 5.2 GPa, respectively. The chain-like monoclinic crystal structure with space group C2/m remains unchanged in both compounds in the entire pressure range. The anisotropic lattice compression and the large difference in the bulk modulus and the compressibility coefficients of the structural parameters of the two compounds have been observed. The mechanism of the observed phenomena was discussed. The enhancement of the one-dimensional antiferromagnetic and metallic character was predicted.

Monoclinic Crystal Structure

The title carbonate hydrate, Cs2Mg4(CO3)5·10H2O, was crystallized at room temperature out of aqueous solutions containing caesium bicarbonate and magnesium nitrate. Its monoclinic crystal structure (P21/n) consists of double chains of composition 1 ∞[Mg(H2O)2/1(CO3)3/3], isolated [Mg(H2O)(CO3)2]2– units, two crystallographically distinct Cs+ ions and a free water molecule. The crystal under investigation was twinned by reticular pseudomerohedry.

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 structure of the anticancer drug carmustine (1,3-bis(2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea, C5H9Cl2N3O2) was successfully determined from laboratory X-ray powder diffraction data recorded at 278 K and at 153 K. Carmustine crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P212121 with Z = 4. The lattice parameters are a = 19.6935(2) Å, b = 9.8338(14) Å, c = 4.63542(6) Å, V = 897.71(2) ų at 153 K, and a = 19.8522(2) Å, b = 9.8843(15) Å, c = 4.69793(6) Å, V = 921.85(2) ų at 278 K. The Rietveld fits are very good, with low R-values and smooth difference curves of calculated and experimental powder data. The molecules form a one-dimensional hydrogen bond pattern. At room temperature, the investigated commercial sample of carmustine was amorphous.

The pressure dependence of the 129Xe chemical shift tensor confined in the Tris(o-phenylenedioxy) cyclotriphosphazene (TPP) nanochannel was investigated by high-pressure 129Xe NMR spectroscopy. The observed 129Xe spectrum in the one-dimensional TPP nanochannel (0.45 nm in diameter) exhibits a powder pattern broadened by an axially symmetric chemical shift tensor. As the pressure increases from 0.02 to 7.0 MPa, a deshielding of 90 ppm is observed for the perpendicularcomponent of the chemical shift tensor δ⊥, whereas a deshielding of about 30 ppm is observed for the parallel one, δ‖. This suggests that the components of the chemical shift tensor, δ‖ and δ⊥, are mainly dominated by the Xe-wall and Xe-Xe interaction, respectively. Furthermore, the effect of helium, which is present along with xenon gas, on the 129Xe chemical shift is examined in detail. The average distance between the Xe atoms in the nanochannel is estimated to be 0.54 nm. This was found by using δ⊥ at the saturated pressure of xenon, and comparing the increment of the chemicalshift value in δ⊥ to that of a β -phenol/Xe compound.

The crystal structure of Ba5(IO6)2, pentabarium bis(orthoperiodate), has been re-investigated at room temperature based on single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. In comparison with a previous crystal structure determination by the Rietveld method, an improved precision of the structural parameters was achieved. Additionally, low-temperature measurements allowed the crystal structure evolution to be studied down to 80 K. No evidence of structural transition was found even at the lowest temperature. Upon cooling, the lattice contraction is more pronounced along the b axis. This contraction is found to be inhomogeneous along different crystallographic axes. The interatomic distances between different Ba atoms reduce drastically with lowering temperature, resulting in a closer packing around the IO6 octahedra, which remain largely unaffected.

The isotypic carbides Ln4C7 (Ln = Ho, Er, Tm, Lu) were prepared by arc-melting of the elemental components, followed by annealing at 1300 °C. The positions of the metal and of some carbon atoms of the monoclinic crystal structure of LU4C7 were determined from X-ray powder data, and the last carbon positions were found and refined from neutron powder diffraction data: P21/c, a = 360.4(1), b = 1351.4(3), c = 629.0(2) pm, β = 104.97(2)°, Z = 2, R = 0.026 for 429 structure factors and 15 positional parameters. The structure contains isolated carbon atoms with octahedral lutetium coordination and linear C3-units, with C-C bond lengths of 132(1) and 135(1) pm. This carbide may therefore be considered as derived from methane and propadiene. The hydrolysis of LU4C7 with distilled water yields mainly methane and propine, while the hydrolyses of the corresponding holmium and erbium carbides resulted in relatively large amounts of saturated and unsaturated C2-hydrocarbons in addition to the expected products methane and propine. The structure comprises two-dimensionally infinite NaCl-type building elements, which are separated by the C3-units. It may be described as a stacking variant of a previously reported structure of HO4C7, now designated as the a-modification. The Lu4C7-type β -modification was obtained at higher temperatures. Its structure was refined by the Rietveld method from X-ray powder data to a residual R = 0.037 for 320 F values and 15 positional parameters. Lu4C7 is Pauli paramagnetic; β -HO4C7 and Er4C7 show Curie-Weiss behavior with magnetic ordering temperatures of less than 20 K.
