Abstract X-ray diffraction methods have been employed to establish the crystal structure of a new, unusual pyrimidine analogue, 5-ethylidenehydroorotate, obtained by a photochemical rearrangement of 5-ethylorotate. Crystals of the calcium salt of the title compound are monoclinic, space group Pc, cell constants a=14.631, 6 = 10.038, c = 19.168 Å,β = 137.7°, and contain four molecules, two cations and three water molecules per asymmetric unit. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined to R = 5.2% on the basis of 2653 diffractometer measured data. The four independent molecules represent two pairs of enantiomers with slightly differing conformations linked together by an intricate system of hydrogen bonding and Ca2+-coordination (pentagonal bipyrimidal). The structure of the compound in aqueous medium, as that in the crystal.

SummaryApjohnite, MnAl2(SO4)4·22H2O, is monoclinic, space group P21/c, a 6·198 (2), b 24·347 (4), c 21·266 (4) Å, β 100·28 (3)° and Z = 4. The crystal structure was determined by means of direct methods applied to X-ray data collected with a single-crystal diffractometer. At the end of the refinement, performed with least-squares method, the R index was 0·039.The SO4 tetrahedra, Al(H2O)5 octahedra, and MnO(H2O)5 octahedra are connected by a hydrogen bonding system; the only direct connection between polyhedra is by sharing of an oxygen between S(4) and Mn. In the asymmetric unit there are twenty-two water molecules, five of which lie in channels of the structure and are not linked to the cations but only to ligand water oxygens by means of hydrogen bonds.Powder data indicate a close structural relationship between apjohnite, halotrichite, and pickeringite.

The crystal structure of the title compound has been determined by direct methods from X-ray diffraction data and refined by least squares to a residual of 0.071 for 2647 'observed' reflections. Crystals are monoclinic, C2/c, a = 36.81(1), b = 11.181(2), c = 20.369(5) �, β = 95.28(3)�, Z = 32. There are four independent molecules in the asymmetric unit, all with the cis disposition of ligands (<Fe-Hg), 2.498 �; <Hg-Fe-Hg), 80.9�); in one of the molecules one of the carbonyl sites is occupied by a more substantial moiety, possibly a result of partial occupancy of HgCl as a result of disorder or decomposition.

3,5-Diphenyl-1,2-dithiolium-4-olate (1) reacts with aniline to form 1-phenylimino-2-phenylamino-3-phenylindene (3a). Under suitable conditions, 6-phenylbenzo[b]indeno[1,2-e]-1,2-thiazine is also formed. These structures are confirmed by alternative syntheses. The molecular structure of 3a has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Compound 3a crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with unit cell dimensions a = 20.777(3) Å, b = 6.130(3) Å, c = 31.327(3) Å, 3 = 99.59(1)°, and Z = 8. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined by least squares to a final R = 0.055. The molecular structure of 3a shows the three phenyl containing substituents to have the planes of their ring systems tilted between 40° and 60° from the plane of the indene system due to steric repulsions.

AbstractOdigitriaite, a new Cs, Na, Ca borosilicate mineral, was discovered in moraine adjacent to the Darai-Pioz alkaline massif in the upper reaches of the Darai-Pioz river at the intersection of the Turkestansky, Zeravshansky and Alaisky mountain ridges, Tajikistan. It occurs as irregular thin flakes associated with quartz, pectolite, baratovite, fluorite, pekovite, polylithionite, aegirine, leucosphenite, pyrochlore, neptunite, reedmergnerite, mendeleevite-(Ce), zeravshanite and sokolovaite. It is colourless with a white streak, is translucent and has a vitreous lustre; it does not fluoresce under ultraviolet light. Odigitriaite is brittle with an uneven fracture and a Mohs hardness of 5. The calculated density is 2.80(2) g/cm3. The indices of refraction are α = 1.502, β = 1.564, γ = 1.576; 2Vobs = 46(2)°, dispersion is weak r > v, and there is no pleochroism. The chemical composition is as follows (electron microprobe, H2O calculated from structure): SiO2 55.30, Al2O3 0.09, Y2O3 0.44, MnO 0.94, FeO 0.10, PbO 0.21, K2O 0.01 Cs2O 8.36, B2O3 4.75, H2O 0.37, F 1.74, O = F2 –0.74, total 99.43 wt.%. The empirical formula of odigitriaite is Cs0.90Na5.12Ca4.68Mn0.20Y0.06Fe0.02Pb0.01[Si13.92Al0.03B2.06O38]F1.39(OH)0.62. The end-member formula is CsNa5Ca5[Si14B2O38]F2. The strong reflections in the powder X-ray diffraction pattern are: [(d, Å), (I, %), (hkl)]: 5.45 (25) (1 1 3), 4.66 (33) (3 1 1), 4.40 (26) (0 2 2), 4.10 (36) (3 1 3), 3.95 (25) (3̄ 1 3), 2.85 (31) (2 2 2), 2.68 (40) (0 0 6), 3.62 (45) (0 2 4), 3.35 (100) (2̄ 2 4), 3.31 (30) (3̄ 1 5), 3.25 (35) (4 0 4), 3.04 (60) (4̄ 2 2), 2.925 (22) (4̄ 2 3), 1.813 (23) (9 1 0). Odigitriaite is monoclinic, space group C2/c, a = 16.652(5), b = 9.598 (3), c = 22.120(7) Å, β= 92.875(14)°, V = 3530.9(1.9) Å3, Z = 4. The crystal structure of odigitriaite was solved by direct methods and refined to an R1 value of 2.75% based on single-crystal X-ray data. It is a double-layer sheet-borosilicate mineral; Cs and Na are intercalated within the double-layer sheet, and the double layers are linked by interstitial Ca and Na atoms.

The X-ray diffraction pattern obtained for a crystal of triammonium bis(O-phospho-L-serinate) trihydrate at 100 K displays the presence of weak superstructure reflections with odd l indices. Omission of the superstructure reflections leads to orthorhombic Laue symmetry. The structure may be solved and refined in the space group P212121 as an average structure omitting the weak reflections. The model reveals the presence of O-phospho-L-serinate monoanions, ammonium cations and partly disordered water molecules. The structure solution for the whole data set could be obtained only in the space group P21. There are two monoanions and two dianions of O-phospho-L-serinate per asymmetric unit, as well as six ordered ammonium cations and six water molecules.

AbstractThe crystal structure of (AsPh4)[Ni(dmid)2 (dmid2- = 1,3-dithia-2-one-4,5-dithiolato) has been determined by X-ray diffraction studies: crystals are monoclinic, space group P21/n a = 14.724(2), b = 14.305(5), c = 15.570(3) Å, β = 92.20(1)°, V = 3277 Å3 , ᵨx = 1.63 g cm-3 for Z = 4, final conventional agreement indices R = 0.038 and Rw = 0.049 for 2115 unique, observed reflections and 211 variable parameters. The asymmetric unit contains one (AsPh4)+ cation and one [Ni(dmid)2] anion, both in general positions. The anions are isolated from each other by the bulky cations. The [Ni(dmid)2]- ion deviates strongly from planarity: the dihedral angle between the two Ni(dmid) moieties is 10.7°; one of the dmid ligand is almost planar, while the second one is severely puckered. Polycristalline powder and single crystal EPR spectra have been recorded at room temperature. Only one signal was observed in all crystal orientations. The angular depend-ences of the linewidth and of the g values have been determined, as well as the principal g values and directions. These results have been compared to those previously obtained for the analogue (n-Bu4N)[Ni(dmit)2 ] (drnit2- = 1,3-dithia-2-thione-4,5-dithiolato), and discussed in terms of the localization of the unpaired electron on the ligands. leading to a formal (III) and actual (II) nickel oxidation state.

The crystal structure of [(CH3)4N]4[WOCl4F][WO3Cl4] was determined by single crystal x-ray diffraction technique. The crystal is monoclinic, space group C 2/m, with a= 28.23(10) Å, b= 11.60(4) Å,c= 13.48(5) Å, β=118.43(7)°, V= 3886(2)Å3, Z=4. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined by least-squares methods to a final R = 0.0512 for 3825 observed reflections with I>2σ(I). In crystal there are two crystallographic distinct anions, both with cis geometry; the O-W-F and O-W-O angles are 97.5(3)° and 103.1(3) ° respectively. All structures are cis configurations that confirm a preference for angles below 90° and 180° between cis and trans σ-donor ligands, respectively.
