Zn1–xMgxO is an important material for optoelectronic devices. We synthesized this material using a solution-based route. We investigated in detail the structural behavior of this material system using x-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. Mg substitution up to x ≈ 0.10 does not change the crystal structure, as revealed by x-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopic studies. This synthesis route is also suitable to prepare thin films by spin coating with the possibility of p and n doping.

Abstract The crystal structure and chemical composition of a crystal of Mg-bearing phase Egg with a general formula M1−x3+Mx2+SiO4H1+x (M3+ = Al, Cr; M2+ = Mg, Fe), where x = 0.35, produced by subsolidus reaction at 24 GPa and 1400 °C of components of subducted oceanic slabs (peridotite, basalt, and sediment), was analyzed by electron microprobe and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Neglecting the enlarged unit cell and the consequent expansion of the coordination polyhedra (as expected for Mg substitution for Al), the compound was found to be topologically identical to phase Egg, AlSiO3OH, space group P21/n, with lattice parameters a = 7.2681(8), b = 4.3723(5), c = 7.1229(7) Å, β = 99.123(8)°, V = 223.49(4) Å3, and Z = 4. Bond-valence considerations lead to hypothesize the presence of hydroxyl groups only, thereby excluding the presence of the molecular water that would be present in the hypothetical end-member MgSiO3·H2O. We thus demonstrate that phase Egg, considered as one of the main players in the water cycle of the mantle, can incorporate large amounts of Mg in its structure and that there exists a solid solution with a new hypothetical MgSiH2O4 end-member, according to the substitution Al3+ ↔ Mg2+ + H+. The new hypothetical MgSiH2O4 end-member would be a polymorph of phase H, a leading candidate for delivering significant water into the deepest part of the lower mantle.

Due to its endurance to ferroelectric fatigue, SrBi2Ta2O9 (SBT) has been extensively investigated. We report here the synthesis of Sr1−xBaxBi2Ta2O9 (x = 0.0, 0.1, 0.5, 1.0) using a solution-based route. The precursors used in this work were the salts of strontium, barium, bismuth, and tantalum ethoxide. X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopic studies indicated the formation of complete solid solution system for Sr1−xBaxBi2Ta2O9. This material system may provide interesting properties relevant to microwave tuning and ferroelectric memory applications, which are under investigation.

Two kinds of iodine–iodine halogen bonds are the focus of our attention in the crystal structure of the title salt, C12H8ClINO+·I3−, described by X-ray diffraction. The first kind is a halogen bond, reinforced by charges, between the I atom of the heterocyclic cation and the triiodide anion. The second kind is the rare case of a halogen bond between the terminal atoms of neighbouring triiodide anions. The influence of relatively weakly bound iodine inside an asymmetric triiodide anion on the thermal and Raman spectroscopic properties has been demonstrated.

The poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) has potential medical usage such as drug delivery since it can degrade into bioabsorbable products in physiological environments, while the degradation is affected by its crystallites. In this paper, the effects of film formation method and annealing on the crystallites formed in PLLA films are investigated. The films are made through solvent casting and spin coating, and subsequent annealing is conducted. The resulting morphology, molecular order, conformation, and intermolecular interaction are examined using optical microscopy, wide-angle X-ray diffraction, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. It is observed that solvent casting produces category 1 spherulites while annealing the spin coated films leads to spherulites of category 2. The crystal structure of the two kinds of films also shows distinct features. The results enable better understanding of the crystallites in PLLA, which is essential for its medical application.

The synthesis of an isoamethyrin-type expanded porphyrin bearing both meso- and β-substituents is presented. The diprotonated form of this macrocycle was characterized by conventional spectroscopic means and via a single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. This species is observed to adopt a planar conformation in the solid state. Nonetheless, the inner ring current, as inferred from 1 H NMR spectroscopic studies, is found to be severely diminished as compared to isoamethyrin, by the presence of the two meso-phenyl moieties. A second crystal structure, in which a molecule of water is hydrogen-bound to a pyrrole NH , was also solved.

The structure of bis(3-Phenylpropylammonium) dichromate(VI) was determined from X-ray diffraction data. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system (space group P21/c) with the lattice parameters: a = 7.9379(2) Å, b = 36.2439(16) Å, c = 7.5753(3) Å; B = 96.069(2); V= 2167.20(14) Å3 and Z = 4. The structure was solved from 4959 independent reflections with R = 0.043 and Rw = 0.105. The structure consists of discrete dichromate anions (Cr2O72-) with eclipsed conformation stacked in layers parallel to (a, c) plane at y = 0 and ½. These anions are linked via the 3-phenylpropylammonium cations by N—H…O and C—H…O hydrogen bonds, forming a two-dimensional supramolecular network. Crystal structure and spectroscopic studies are reported for the bis(3-phenylpropylammonium) dichromate(VI).

The organo-amino compound of title 2-(4-methyl-2-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-oxazol-4-ylmethyl)-isoindole-1,3-dione was synthesized by the mixture of (4-methyl-2-phenyl-4,5-dihydrooxazol-4-yl)methyl-4-methylbenzenesulfonate and isoindoline-1,3-dione in N,N-dimethylformamide with a yield of around 65%. The structural study of the compound, C19H16N2O3, is realized using single crystal X-Ray diffraction which shows that this compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system (P21/c, Z = 4) with the unit cell parameters: a = 14.3728 (13) Ã…, b = 9.6829 (10) Ã…, c = 11.8964 (12) Ã… and β = 107.384 (3). The refinement of the structure by the least-squares method with complete matrix leads to the following reliability factors R/Rw are 0.044/0.130.In the crystal, the molecules are linked together by hydrogen bonds and π…π interactions.The Infrared spectroscopic studies show the bands confirming the presence of the groups C=O, C-O, C-N, -CH3, -CH2 and =CH.
