A decanuclear silver chalcogenide cluster, [Ag10(Se){Se2P(OiPr)2}8] (2) was isolated from a hydride-encapsulated silver diisopropyl diselenophosphates, [Ag7(H){Se2P(OiPr)2}6], under thermal condition. The time-dependent NMR spectroscopy showed that 2 was generated at the first three hours and the hydrido silver cluster was completely consumed after thirty-six hours. This method illustrated as cluster-to-cluster transformations can be applied to prepare selenide-centered decanuclear bimetallic clusters, [CuxAg10-x(Se){Se2P(OiPr)2}8] (x = 0–7, 3), via heating [CuxAg7−x(H){Se2P(OiPr)2}6] (x = 1–6) at 60 °C. Compositions of 3 were accurately confirmed by the ESI mass spectrometry. While the crystal 2 revealed two un-identical [Ag10(Se){Se2P(OiPr)2}8] structures in the asymmetric unit, a co-crystal of [Cu3Ag7(Se){Se2P(OiPr)2}8]0.6[Cu4Ag6(Se){Se2P(OiPr)2}8]0.4 ([3a]0.6[3b]0.4) was eventually characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Even though compositions of 2, [3a]0.6[3b]0.4 and the previous published [Ag10(Se){Se2P(OEt)2}8] (1) are quite similar (10 metals, 1 Se2−, 8 ligands), their metal core arrangements are completely different. These results show that different synthetic methods by using different starting reagents can affect the structure of the resulting products, leading to polymorphism.

Crystallographic studies of rabbit Fc using X-ray diffraction patterns were recently reported. The unit cell constants were reported to be a = 69. 2 A°, b = 73. 1 A°, c = 60. 6 A°, B = 104° 30', space group P21, monoclinic, volume of asymmetric unit V = 148, 000 A°3. The molecular weight of the fragment was determined to be 55, 000 ± 2000 which is in agreement with earlier determinations by other methods.Fc crystals were formed in water or dilute phosphate buffer at neutral pH. The resulting crystal was a flat plate as previously described. Preparations of small crystals were negatively stained by mixing the suspension with equal volumes of 2% silicotungstate at neutral pH. A drop of the mixture was placed on a carbon coated grid and allowed to stand for a few minutes. The excess liquid was removed and the grid was immediately put in the microscope.

Chemical treatment of CoX<sub>2</sub><b><sup>. </sup></b>6H<sub>2</sub>O (X = Cl, Br, I) with the potentially tridentate PNP pincer ligand 2,6-bis(di-<i>tert</i>-butylphosphinomethyl)pyridine in 1:1 molar ratio results in cobalt(II) halide-PNP pincer complexes. The effect of the hydrated metal source on molecular structure and geometry of the complexes was studied by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The complexes are neutral and the cobalt center adopts a penta-coordinate system with potential atropisomerization. Within the unit cell there are two distinct molecules per asymmetric unit. One of the two phosphorus atoms in the PNP ligand was observed to be partially oxidized to phosphinoxide. Disorder in the structure reflects a mixture of square pyramidal and distorted tetrahedral geometry.

From the reaction of [Ru2Cl3(PMe2Ph)6] Cl with the appropriate radical anions, yellow complexes of general formula [Ru(PMe2Ph)3(η4-arene)] [arene = naphthalene (C10H8) (1), anthracene (C14H10) (2), and triphenylene (C18H12) (3)] have been isolated in poor yield and characterized by elemental analysis, n.m.r. (1H, 13C, 31P) spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Crystal data: (1), monoclinic, C2/c, a 31.096(8), b 12.012(4), c 17.078(8) Å, β 104.41(3)˚, V 6178(4) Å3, ? 8, refined to final R value of 0.032 with use of 3641 reflections [I > 3σ(I)]; (2), monoclinic, C2/c, a 55.909(4), b 14.348(5), c 17.573(5) Å, β 105.41(1)˚, V 13590(6) Å3, Z 16 (two molecules per asymmetric unit), refined to final R value of 0.049 with use of 7770 reflections [I > 3σ(I)]; (3), mono-clinic, Pn, a 9.377(3), b 12.229(3), c 15.975(3) Å, β 103.51(2)˚, V 1781.2 (7) Å3, Z 2, refined to final R value of 0.026 with use of 2830 reflections [I > 3σ(I)]. In each case, coordination of the zerovalent metal fragment Ru(PMe2Ph)3 to the diene section of one of the terminal rings causes the aromatic molecule to be folded by c. 40˚ at the outer carbon atoms of the diene. The coordination geometry about ruthenium is approximately square pyramidal, with the diene and two tertiary phosphines in the equatorial plane and the remaining tertiary phosphine in the axial site.

The arylidene–imidazolone derivatives are a group of compounds of great interest in medicinal chemistry due to their various pharmacological actions. In order to study the possible conformations of an arylidene–imidazolone derivative, two new crystal structures were determined by X-ray diffraction, namely (Z)-5-(4-chlorobenzylidene)-2-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)-3H-imidazol-5(4H)-one, C15H17ClN4O, (6), and its salt 4-[5-(4-chlorobenzylidene)-5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-3H-imidazol-2-yl]-1-methylpiperazin-1-ium 3-{5-[4-(diethylamino)benzylidene]-4-oxo-2-thioxothiazolidin-3-yl}propionate, C15H18ClN4O+·C17H19N2O3S2 −, (7). Both compounds crystallize in the space group P\overline{1}. The basic form (6) crystallizes with two molecules in the asymmetric unit. In the acid form of (6), the N atom of the piperazine ring is protonated by proton transfer from the carboxyl group of the rhodanine acid derivative. The greatest difference in the conformations of (6) and its protonated form, (6c), is observed in the location of the arylidene–imidazolone substituent at the N atom. In the case of (6c), the position of this substituent is close to axial, while for (6), the corresponding position is intermediate between equatorial and axial. The crystal packing is dominated by a network of N—H...O hydrogen bonds. Furthermore, the crystal structures are stabilized by numerous intermolecular contacts of types C—H...N and C—H...Cl in (6), and C—H...O and C—H...S in (7). The geometry with respect to the location of the substituents at the N atoms of the piperazine ring was compared with other crystal structures possessing an N-methylpiperazine moiety.

Phytases are phosphatases that hydrolyze phytates to less phosphorylatedmyo-inositol derivatives and inorganic phosphate. β-Propeller phytases, which are very diverse phytases with improved thermostability that are active at neutral and alkaline pH and have absolute substrate specificity, are ideal substitutes for other commercial phytases. PhyH-DI, a β-propeller phytase fromBacillussp. HJB17, was found to act synergistically with other single-domain phytases and can increase their efficiency in the hydrolysis of phytate. Crystals of native and selenomethionine-substituted PhyH-DI were obtained using the vapour-diffusion method in a condition consisting of 0.2 Msodium chloride, 0.1 MTris pH 8.5, 25%(w/v) PEG 3350 at 289 K. X-ray diffraction data were collected to 3.00 and 2.70 Å resolution, respectively, at 100 K. Native PhyH-DI crystals belonged to space groupC121, with unit-cell parametersa = 156.84,b = 45.54,c = 97.64 Å, α = 90.00, β = 125.86, γ = 90.00°. The asymmetric unit contained two molecules of PhyH-DI, with a corresponding Matthews coefficient of 2.17 Å3 Da−1and a solvent content of 43.26%. Crystals of selenomethionine-substituted PhyH-DI belonged to space groupC2221, with unit-cell parametersa = 94.71,b= 97.03,c= 69.16 Å, α = β = γ = 90.00°. The asymmetric unit contained one molecule of the protein, with a corresponding Matthews coefficient of 2.44 Å3 Da−1and a solvent content of 49.64%. Initial phases for PhyH-DI were obtained from SeMet SAD data sets. These data will be useful for further studies of the structure–function relationship of PhyH-DI.

N-Alkyl-o-nitrophenylcarbamates as solids present two carbonyl stretching bands in the region 1700 - 1800 cm−1 but similar N-alkyl-p-nitrophenylcarbamates have only one such band in the IR spectrum. In solution both kinds of carbamate present one carbonyl stretching band, but for the former, the splittings occur when the carbamates crystallize. Four crystal structures were analyzed by X-ray diffraction. The two ortho derivatives have more than one molecule in the asymmetric unit, which is consistent with the IR observations.

The crystal structure of magnesium zinc divanadate, MgZnV2O7, was determined and refined from laboratory X-ray powder diffraction data. The title compound was synthesized by a solid-state reaction at 1023 K in air. The crystal structure is isotypic with Mn0.6Zn1.4V2O7 (C2/m; Z = 6) and is related to the crystal structure of thortveitite. The asymmetric unit contains two metal sites with statistically distributed magnesium and zinc atoms with the atomic ratio close to 1:1. One (Mg/Zn) metal site (M1) is located on Wyckoff position 8j and the other (M2) on 4h. Three V sites (all on 4i), and eight O (three 8j, four 4i, and one 2b) sites complete the asymmetric unit. The structure is an alternate stacking of V2O7 layers and (Mg/Zn) atom layers along [20\overline{1}]. It is distinct from other related structures in that each V2O7 layer consists of two groups: a V2O7 dimer and a V4O14 tetramer. Mixed-occupied M1 and M2 are coordinated by oxygen atoms in distorted trigonal bipyramidal and octahedral sites, respectively.

The crystal structure of pentatitanium tetraoxide tetrakis(phosphate), Ti5O4(PO4)4, has been determined and refined from X-ray diffraction single-crystal data [P212121 (No. 19), Z = 4, a = 12.8417 (12), b = 14.4195 (13), c = 7.4622 (9) Å (from Guinier photographs); conventional residual R 1 = 0.042 for 2556 Fo > 4σ(Fo ), R 1 = 0.057 for all 3276 independent reflections; 282 parameters; 29 atoms in the asymmetric unit of the ideal structure]. The structure is closely related to those of β-Fe2O(PO4)-type phosphates and synthetic lipscombite, Fe3(PO4)4(OH). While these consist of infinite chains of face-sharing MO6 octahedra, in pentatitanium tetraoxide tetrakis(phosphate) only five-eighths of the octahedral voids are occupied according to □3Ti5O4(PO4)4. Four of the five independent Ti4+O6 show high radial distortion [1.72 ≤ d(Ti−O) ≤ 2.39 Å] and a typical 1 + 4 + 1 distance distribution. The fifth Ti4+O6 is an almost regular octahedron [1.91 ≤ d(Ti−O) ≤ 1.98 Å]. Partial disorder of Ti4+ over the available octahedral voids is revealed by the X-ray structure refinement. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) investigations confirm this result.
