Abstract The crystal structure of the low temperature phase of anilinium bromide, C6H5NH3⊕Br⊖, was studied by neutron diffraction at T = 100 K. The refinement supports an ordered structure. The structures of the low and high temperature phases are compared and the mechanism of the phase transformation is discussed.

4,6-Dimethoxy-3-methyldihydrotriazine-2-one (1) undergoes a single-crystal to single-crystal reversible phase transformation at 319 K. The low-temperature phase crystallizes in monoclinic space group P21/n with two crystallographically independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. The high-temperature phase is obtained by heating a single crystal of the low-temperature phase. This phase is orthorhombic, space group Pnma, with the molecules occupying a crystallographic mirror plane. The enthalpy of the transformation is 1.34 kJ mol−1. The small energy difference between the two phases and the minimal atomic movement facilitate the single-crystal to single-crystal reversible phase transformation with no destruction of the crystal lattice. On further heating, the high-temperature phase undergoes methyl rearrangement in the solid state. 2,4,6-Trimethoxy-1,3,5-triazine (3), on the other hand, undergoes an irreversible phase transformation from single-crystal to polycrystalline material at 340 K with an enthalpy of 3.9 kJ mol−1; upon further heating it melts and methyl rearrangement takes place.

57Fe,119Sn, and151Eu Mössbauer spectroscopy was used to study the chemical structure, phonon mode changes, and low-temperature phase transformation around the Tcas well as suppression of superconductivity in high-temperature superconductors and related compounds. Anomalous temperature-dependent changes in the total57Fe spectral area fraction and in the Mössbauer line shift were simultaneously found around the Tcin a EuBa2(Cu0.9957Fe0.01)3O7-dsuperconductor. These anomalous changes were attributed to phonon softening and low-temperature phase transformation occurring around the superconducting transition. Significant differences were observed between the57Fe Mössbauer spectra of superconducting EuBa2(Cu0.9957Fe0.01)3O7-dand the isostructural non-superconducting PrBa2(Cu0.9957Fe0.01)3O7-d. The differences were interpreted in connection with the suppression of superconductivity (by hole filling or hybridization of Pr, Cu and O states) in the Pr-containing compound. The unusually high isomer shift value observed in the Pr-containing material can give evidence for the charge transfer mechanism between the Cu(1) chains and the Cu(2) planes and for its role in the suppression of superconductivity.

Abstract The crystal structure and 63Cu NQR spectra of two neutral hexanuclear Cu(I) complexes of 4,6-dimethylpyrimidine-2-thione, (Hdmpt); [dmptCu]66CHCl3 (l) and [dmptCu]6C2H4Cl2 (2), are reported. The number and relative intensities of the NQR resonances are in agreement with the results of the crystallographic study. The temperature-dependence of the resonances reveals that both compounds undergo a phase-change in the temperature range 77 K -300 K, both of which may be associated with the loss of a symmetry-element present in the high-temperature phase. The 35Cl resonances of CHCl3 in 1 could be observed in the low-temperature phase but the corresponding resonances for C2H4Cl2 in 2 were not detected.
