Di­methyl­phenyl­sulfonium tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate and methyl­di­phenyl­sulfonium tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate

The bonding geometry of sulfur in the cations of the title compounds, C₈H₁₁S⁺·CF₃SO₃^? and C₁₃H₁₃S⁺·CF₃SO₃^?, respectively, is similar and is independent of the ratio of the Me/Ph substituents. As expected, in both cations, the S—Ph bonds are somewhat shorter than the S—Me bonds. In both crystal structures, the interaction between cations and anions is similar.     

2,4‐Di­nitro­phenyl­hydrazones of 2,4‐di­hydroxy­benz­aldehyde, 2,4‐di­hydroxy­aceto­phenone and 2,4‐di­hydroxy­benzo­phenone

In 2,4‐di­hydroxy­benz­aldehyde 2,4‐di­nitro­phenyl­hydrazone N,N‐di­methyl­form­amide solvate {or 4‐[(2,4‐di­nitro­phenyl)­hydrazono­methyl]­benzene‐1,3‐diol N,N‐di­methyl­form­amide solvate}, C₁₃H₁₀N₄O₆·C₃H₇NO, (X), 2,4‐di­hydroxy­aceto­phenone 2,4‐di­nitro­phenyl­hydrazone N,N‐di­methyl­form­am­ide solvate (or 4‐{1‐[(2,4‐di­nitro­phenyl)hydrazono]ethyl}benzene‐1,3‐diol N,N‐di­methyl­form­amide solvate), C₁₄H₁₂N₄O₆·C₃H₇NO, (XI), and 2,4‐di­hydroxy­benzo­phenone 2,4‐di­nitro­phenyl­hydrazone N,N‐di­methyl­acet­amide solvate (or 4‐­{[(2,4‐di­nitro­phenyl)hydrazono]phenyl­methyl}benzene‐1,3‐diol N,N‐di­methyl­acet­amide solvate), C₁₉H₁₄N₄O₆·C₄H₉NO, (XII), the molecules all lack a center of symmetry, crystallize in centrosymmetric space groups and have been observed to exhibit non‐linear optical activity. In each case, the hydrazone skeleton is fairly planar, facilitated by the presence of two intramolecular hydrogen bonds and some partial N—N double‐bond character. Each molecule is hydrogen bonded to one solvent mol­ecule.

A physicochemical study of glasses based on the MO-Bi₂O₃-B₂O₃ and SrO-Bi₂O₃-B₂O₃ systems was performed. Glass formation regions were found. The structural and optical properties, as well as the thermal behavior of the glasses, were studied.     

3,3,10,10‐Tetra­methyl‐1,2‐di­thia‐5,8‐di­aza­cyclo­deca‐4,8‐diene

The title compound, C₁₀H₁₈N₂S₂, acts as an important precursor for the synthesis of the pharmaceutically important di­amine­di­thiol ligand system. The mol­ecule has a local twofold axis and the arrangement of the S₂N₂ donor atoms in the macrocycle is anticlinal.     

4‐Hydro­xy‐3‐methoxy­benz­aldehyde 4,5‐di­azafluoren‐9‐yl­idene­hydrazone

The whole mol­ecule of the title compound, C₁₉H₁₄N₄O₂, is essentially planar, with a highly conjugated π system. In the crystal, the mol­ecules are packed as chains along the [011] direction connected by O—H?N intermolecular hydrogen bonds.     

Methyl­tri­phenyl­stibonium tetra­fluoro­borate

In the title compound, [Sb(CH₃)(C₆H₅)₃]BF₄, there are four independent cations and anions in the asymmetric unit. The geometry around the Sb atom is distorted tetrahedral, with Sb—C distances in the range 2.077 (4)–2.099 (10) Å and angles at the Sb atom in the range 103.3 (3)–119.0 (4)°.     

2,4,6‐Tri­chloro­phenyl­iso­nitrile and 2,4,6‐tri­chloro­benzo­nitrile

The molecular structures of the title compounds, 2,4,6‐tri­chloro­phenyl­iso­nitrile (IUPAC name: 2,4,6‐tri­chloro­phenyl isocyanide), C₇H₂Cl₃N, and 2,4,6‐tri­chloro­benzo­nitrile, C₇H₂Cl₃N, are normal. The two structures are not isomorphous, but do contain similar two‐dimensional layers in which pairs of mol­ecules are held together by pairs of Cl?CN [3.245 (3) Å] or Cl?NC [3.153 (2) Å] interactions. The two‐dimensional isomorphism is lost through different layer‐stacking modes.     

4,5‐Propyl­enedi­thio‐1,3‐di­thiole‐2‐thione and 4,5‐propyl­enedi­thio‐1,3‐di­thiol‐2‐one

4,5‐Propyl­ene­di­thio‐1,3‐di­thiole‐2‐thione, C₆H₆S₅, (I), crystallizes in the centrosymmetric space group P2₁/c. The molecular packing is characterized by pairs of S⋯S intermolecular contacts between neighbouring mol­ecules, which may account for the rather high thermal stablity of the crystal. 4,5‐Propyl­ene­di­thio‐1,3‐di­thiol‐2‐one, C₆H₆OS₄, (II), in which an O atom replaces the terminal S atom of (I), crystallizes in the non‐centrosymmetric polar space group Cc. The packing pattern of (II) indicates that the macropolarization direction is along [101]. Although the packing patterns are qualitatively significantly different, the molecular structures of (I) and (II) are similar, each exhibiting a chair conformation.     

2‐Iso­propyl‐4‐methyl‐4‐phenyl‐1,2,3,4‐tetra­hydro­iso­quinoline‐1‐thione

The title compound, C₁₉H₂₁NS, is the photoproduct obtained from N‐iso­propyl‐N‐[(E)‐2‐phenyl­propenyl]­thio­benz­amide. Recrystallization showed a spontaneous resolution.     

{[(N‐Methyl‐p‐toluidino)­di­phenyl­phospho­ranyl­idene]­methyl}(N‐methyl‐p‐toluidino)­di­phenyl­phospho­nium iodide

The cationic part of the homodifunctional amino­phospho­ranyl ligand, C₄₁H₄₁N₂P₂⁺·I^?, shows interesting features associated with the N—P—C—P—N skeleton. The P—C(H) bond distances [1.696 (3) and 1.697 (3) Å] possess partial double‐bond characteristics. The nature of the P—C(H) and P—N bonds suggests that the positive charge is only distributed around the P—C—P atoms. The structure has near twofold symmetry through the central methyl­ide‐C atom.     

Bis(μ‐hexa­methyl­enetetr­amine)­bis(aqua­di­bromo­cadmium)­di­aqua­di­bromo­cadmium dihydrate

The title compound, poly­[[di­aqua­di­bromo­cadmium‐μ‐(1,3,5,7‐tetra­aza­tri­cyclo[3.3.1.1^3,7]decane‐N¹:N⁵)‐aqua­cad­mium‐di‐μ‐bromo‐aqua­cadmium‐μ‐(1,3,5,7‐tetra­aza­tri­cyclo[3.3.1.1^3,7]decane‐N¹:N⁵)‐di‐μ‐bromo] dihydrate], [Cd₃­Br₆­(C₆­H₁₂­N₄)₂­(H₂O)₄]·­2H₂O, is made up of two‐dimensional neutral rectangular coordination layers. Each rectangular subunit is enclosed by a pair of Cd₃(μ₂‐Br)₆(H₂O)₃ fragments and a pair of (μ₂‐hmt)Cd(H₂O)₂Br₂(μ₂‐hmt) fragments as sides (hmt is hexa­methyl­enetetr­amine). The unique Cd^II atom in the Cd₂Br₂ ring in the Cd₃(μ₂‐Br)₆(H₂O)₃ fragment is in a slightly distorted octahedral CdNOBr₄ geometry, surrounded by one hmt ligand [2.433 (5) Å], one aqua ligand [2.273 (4) Å] and four Br atoms [2.6409 (11)–3.0270 (14) Å]. The Cd^II atom in the (μ₂‐hmt)Cd(H₂O)₂Br₂(μ₂‐hmt) fragment lies on an inversion center and is in a highly distorted octahedral CdN₂O₂Br₂ geometry, surrounded by two trans‐related N atoms of two hmt ligands [2.479 (5) Å], two trans‐related aqua ligands [2.294 (4) Å] and two trans‐related Br atoms [2.6755 (12) Å]. Adjacent two‐dimensional coordination sheets are connected into a three‐dimensional network by hydrogen bonds involving lattice water mol­ecules, and the aqua, bromo and hmt ligands belonging to different layers.     

Di­propyl 3,6‐di­phenyl‐1,2‐di­hydro‐1,2,4,5‐tetrazine‐1,2‐di­carboxyl­ate

The title compound, C₂₂H₂₄N₄O₄, was prepared from propyl chloro­formate and 3,6‐di­phenyl‐1,2‐di­hydro‐s‐tetrazine. This reaction yields the title compound rather than di­propyl 3,6‐di­phenyl‐1,4‐di­hydro‐s‐tetrazine‐1,4‐di­carboxyl­ate. The 2,3‐di­aza­buta­diene group in the central six‐membered ring is not planar; the C=N double‐bond length is 1.285 (2) Å, and the average N—N single‐bond length is 1.401 (3) Å, indicating a lack of conjugation. The ring has a twist conformation, in which adjacent N atoms lie 0.3268 (17) Å from the plane of the ring. The mol­ecule has twofold crystallographic symmetry.     

Thermal analysis on C<Subscript>6</Subscript>H<Subscript>10</Subscript>Ge<Subscript>2</Subscript>O<Subscript>7</Subscript>-doped MgB<Subscript>2</Subscript>

Additives to MgB₂ can improve the superconducting functional characteristics, such as critical current density (J _c) and irreversibility field (H _irr). Recently, we have shown that repagermanium (C₆H₁₀Ge₂O₇) is an effective additive, enhancing both J _c and H _irr. To look into details of the processes taking place during the reactive sintering, a thermal analysis study (0.167 K s^?1, in Ar) is reported. We used differential scanning calorimetry between 298 and 863 K and simultaneous thermogravimetric—differential thermal analysis between 298 and 1233 K. Samples were mixtures of powders with composition 97 mol% MgB₂ and 3 mol% C₆H₁₀Ge₂O₇. Up to 863 K, repagermanium decomposes by multiple steps and forms amorphous phases. A reaction with MgB₂ is not observed. Above this temperature, partial decomposition of MgB₂ occurs. Crystalline Ge and MgO are detected before formation of Mg₂Ge and MgB₄, when temperature approaches the melting point of Ge (1211 K). Carbon substitution for boron in the crystal lattice of MgB₂ is observed for samples heated above 863 K. The amount of substitutional C does not significantly change with temperature.

This is the first study of the NaBO₂-Na₂CO₃-Na₂MoO₄-Na₂WO₄ quaternary system by differential thermal analysis. Na₂[MoO_4(x)WO_{4(1 − x)}] solid solutions in the quaternary system are found to not decompose.     

Ethyl­tri­phenyl­phospho­nium perrhenate and (iodo­methyl)­tri­phenyl­phospho­nium perrhenate

Ethyl­tri­phenyl­phospho­nium perrhenate, (C₂₀H₂₀P)[ReO₄], and (iodo­methyl)­tri­phenyl­phospho­nium perrhenate, (C₁₉H₁₇IP)[ReO₄], have been crystallized from 2‐propanol. Both crystal structures consist of phospho­nium cations and perrhenate anions. The cations show the typical propeller‐like geometry. In both crystals, the positions of the nearly tetrahedral anions are stabilized by weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, and for the latter compound, I⋯π interactions also occur.

Di‐μ‐hydro­xo‐bis­(diiso­propyl­gallium)–1,4,8,11‐tetra­methyl‐1,4,8,11‐tetra­aza­cyclo­tetra­decane (1/1)

The hydro­lysis product [Ga₂(C₃H₇)₄(OH)₂]·C₁₄H₃₂N₄, derived from the tetrakis­(triiso­propyl­gallium)–1,4,8,11‐tetra­methyl‐1,4,8,11‐tetra­aza­cyclo­tetra­decane (1/1) adduct, consists of a centrosymmetric [ⁱPr₂Ga(μ‐OH)]₂ unit hydrogen bonded through the hydroxyl group to a nitro­gen on an adjacent centrosymmetric 1,4,8,11‐tetra­methyl‐1,4,8,11‐tetra­aza­cyclo­tetra­decane molecule, resulting in the generation of a molecular chain through the crystal.
