AbstractThe crystal structure of cumengéite, Pb21Cu20Cl42(OH)40, tetragonal, a= 15.065(2), c= 24.436(5) Å, V = 5546(2) Å3, space group I4/mmm, Z = 2, has been solved by direct methods and refined by least-squares to an R index of 7.1 % for 1158 observed (I > 2.5σ I) reflections. The cumengéite structure shows a very diverse range of cation coordinations. There are five distinct Pb sites with the following coordination polyhedra: octahedron, square antiprism, augmented trigonal prism, a very distorted biaugmented trigonal prism and a fairly regular biaugmented trigonal prism, the latter being only half-occupied; there are two distinct Cu sites with octahedral and square pyramidal coordination respectively. The coordination polyhedra share elements to form prominent columns or rods of polyhedra parallel to the c-axis and centred on the 4-fold axes of the unit cell. These rods form a body-centred array, and link by sharing elements of their coordination polyhedra.

AbstractSingle crystals of AsTeSolution of the structure was essentialy effected by direct methods combined with successive Fourier syntheses. The positional and anisotropic thermal parameters were refined by full-matrix least-squares calculations. Absorption and anomalous dispersion corrections were applied to all atoms. The finalThe As atom is coordinated by six O atoms forming a right trigonal prism. The Te atom site is partially occupied by Te atoms with a population parameter 0.5 and surrounded by six O atoms also forming a right trigonal prism. The structure looks like that of NiAs. Each of the AsO

The crystal structure of hexagonal β-endosulfan (β1) was determined by direct methods. On a four-circle diffractometer, 2350 reflections were collected. The crystals were hexagonal, (P63/m), with Z = 6, in a cell of dimensions a = 1492.0(2), c = 1150.6(2) pm. The structure was refined by least squares to R 0.068 from 573 unique reflections having F > 2.5σ(F). The methylene sulphite ring showed an ?endo-endo-endo? configuration with respect to its attachment to the methano- bridged hexachlorocyclohexane and exo to the oxide portion of the sulphite group. Space group requirements for P63/m resulted in the molecules lying along the mirror planes at Z = 1/4 and 3/4.

The reaction of N,N′-dihydroxy-N,N′-dimethylmethanediamine with phenylboronic acid leads to the product 1,7-dimethyl-3,5-diphenyl-2,4,6-trioxa-7-aza-1-azonia-3-bora-5-boratabicyclo[3.3.0]octane rather than the expected product 1,5-dimethyl-3-phenyl-1,5-diaza-2,4-dioxa-3-boracyclohexane. The structure of N,N′-dihydroxy-N,N′-dimethylmethanediamine has been determined and is discussed in terms of its reaction with PhB(OH)2. Crystals of N,N′-dihydroxy-N,N′-dimethylmethanediamine are tetragonal, a = 8.5346(3), c = 8.4178(7) Å, Z = 4, space group P421c. The structure was solved by direct methods and was refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to a final R of 0.036 and Rw of 0.038 for 333 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I). The structure consists of hydrogen-bonded dimers having exact [Formula: see text] symmetry. Keywords: N,N′-dihydroxy-N,N′-dimethylmethanediamine, crystal structure.

The crystal structure of a compound isolated after reaction of iodine(1) acetate with cis-cyclohexane-1,2-diol has been determined by direct methods. It is identified as 2,2'-(butane-1,4-diyl)bis(hexahydro-1,3-benzodioxole). Crystals are orthorhombic, a 8.625(2), b 7.589(1), c 26.187(5) Ǻ, space group Pbca, Z 4. Least- squares refinement brought R to 0.046.

Dimedone, C8H12O2, crystallizes with monoclinic symmetry, a = 10.079(7), b = 6.835(3), c = 12.438(4) Å, β = 110.24(5)°, space group P21/n and Z = 4. The structure of this compound was solved by direct methods and refined by full-matrix least-squares techniques using 1205 unique reflections to a final R of 0.047. In the solid state it exists in the enolic form and these molecules pack in the crystal in systems of infinite chains linked together by hydrogen bonds in the y direction. These results are virtually the same as recently reported by Semmingsen.

The crystal structure of Mg2As2O7 has been refined by full matrix least squares procedures using 587 observed reflections. The structure of Mg2As2O7 is of the thortveitite type, as reported by Łukaszewicz, with space group C2/m and unit cell dimensions a = 6.567(2) Å, b = 8.524(4) Å, c = 4.739(1) Å, β = 103.8(1)°, and Z = 2. The As—O—As group in the anion appears to be linear but the central oxygen atom undergoes considerable disorder in the plane perpendicular to this group. The AsO bond distances uncorrected for thermal motion are 1.67 Å for the As—O(—As) bond and 1.66 and 1.65 Å for the terminal As—O bonds. The final R value obtained is 0.088.

Crystals of L-prolinatodiphenylboron are monoclinic, a = 5.9427(5), b = 14.4633(7), c = 8.9654(4) Å, β = 98.423(8)°, Z = 2, space group P21. The structure was solved by direct methods and was refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to a final R of 0.037 and Rw of 0.053 for 1477 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I). The proline ring exhibits conformational disorder. The crystal structure consists of discrete molecules linked by N—H … O hydrogen bonds (N … O = 2.893(3) Å) along the short a axis. Intramolecular N—B coordination occurs to form a system of two fused five-membered rings. Bond lengths (corrected for libration) are: N—B, 1.630(3), O—B, 1.529(3), O—C, 1.219(3) and 1.300(3), N—C, 1.506(3) and 1.507(3), C(sp3)–C(sp3), 1.525(4), C(sp2)—C(sp3), 1.517(3), and mean C—C(phenyl), 1.394 Å.

Alkaline chlorination of the 4-alkyl-2,6-dichlorophenols (2b) and (2c) proceeds through ring contraction and halolactonization to form the 4α- alkyl-2,2,5α-trichloro-1α,3α-dihydroxycyclopentane-1,4-carbolactones (4b) and (4c). Under similar conditions, 2,4,6-trichlorophenol affords the analogous 2,2,4α,5α-tetrachloro-1α,3α-dihydroxycyclopentane-1,4- carbolactone (4a) in low yield, in addition to the Hantzsch acid (3a) as the major product. The acid (3a) upon further treatment undergoes chloro-lactonization to give the lactone (4a). The structures of the lactones (4b) and (4c) follow from spectroscopic comparison with (4a), the structure of which has been established by X-ray diffraction (C6H4Cl4O4 orthorhombic a 13.485(1), b 12.348(1), c 11.371(1) Ǻ, space group Pccn, Z 8, solved by direct methods and refined by block-diagonal and full-matrix least squares to R 0.031, Rw 0.043 for 1313 unique counter data with I/σ(I) ≥ 3.0).

p-Diethylaminobenzenediazonium hexafluorophosphate, C10H14N3+•PF6−, crystallized in space group [Formula: see text] with a = 12.105(4), b = 12.340(5), c = 10.439(4) Å, α = 96.53(3), β = 104.11(3), γ = 64.44(3)°, and Z = 4. The structure was solved using direct methods and refined with full-matrix least-squares techniques on F, to a final R of 0.054 for 1917 reflections with F2 > 3σ(F2). The mean bond lengths for the diazo group are: N—N 1.096(6); C—N 1.357(7) Å. The geometry of the molecule is discussed in terms of the possible resonance forms and it is shown to be consistent with a form in which the N—N triple bond is essentially intact and the aminobenzene moiety has "quinoidal" character.

The crystal structure of triclinic rubidium dichromate has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal belongs to space group [Formula: see text] with a = 13.554, b = 7.640, c = 7.735 Å, α = 93.64°, β = 98.52°, γ = 88.80° and has four Rb2Cr2O7 units in the unit cell. The final weighted agreement index after refinement by least-squares analysis is 0.058. The configuration of the dichromate ions is similar to that found in most other dichromate structures (Cr—O (bridging) = 1.78 Å, Cr—O (terminal) = 1.62 Å). The two non-equivalent Cr—O—Cr angles are 123 and 137°. The rubidium ions are surrounded by either 8 or 9 oxygen atoms at distances ranging from 2.86 to 3.31 Å. The structure of triclinic Rb2Cr2O7 is similar, but not identical, to that of triclinic K2Cr2O7.
