Temperature-dependent Raman study of pure and silver nanoparticles dispersed N-(4-n-heptyloxybenzylidene)-4’-n-butylaniline (7O.4)

Temperature-dependent micro-Raman study of C-H in-plane bending mode of aromatic rings, C-N and C=N stretching of linking group (-C(H)=N) and C=C stretching of rings of pure and silver nanoparticles dispersed (0.5% and 1% by weight) Schiff’s base liquid crystal (LC) compound, N-(4-n-heptyloxybenzylidene)-4’-n-butylaniline (7O.4) in 500–2250 cm^?1 region has been done. The change in Raman spectral parameters (peak position and linewidth) at crystal–smecticG (K–smG) and smecticG–smecticC (smG–smC) gives the evidence of charge shift at phase transition which is associated with changes in orientation and vibrational freedom of the molecules. The peak position of the Raman bands shows blue shift for 0.5 wt% dispersed sample, whereas it shows red shift for 1 wt% dispersed sample. The blue and red shifts of the Raman bands indicate an increase and decrease in the charge density, respectively. The optimised structure and theoretical room temperature Raman spectra of 7O.4 were obtained using density functional theory. The vibrational assignment using potential energy distribution is reported using vibrational energy distribution analysis (VEDA).     

The molecular and crystal structure of a polar mesogen 4-cyanobiphenyl-4′-hexylbiphenyl carboxylate

The crystal structure of the compound 4-cyanobiphenyl-4′-hexylbiphenyl carboxylate (6CBB), which exhibits both monolayer smectic A and nematic phases, has been determined by direct methods using single crystal X-ray diffraction data. The structure is triclinic with the space group P-1 and Z=2. The unit cell parameters are a=9.3511(7)?Å, b=11.2456(7)?Å, c=13.1417(6)?Å, α=85.872(4)°, β=76.258(5)° and γ=70.697(5)°. The molecule is found to be slightly bow-shaped although the alkyl chain is in all-trans conformation. The phenyl rings in 6CBB are non-coplanar. The packing of the molecules in the crystalline state is found to be a precursor to the smectic A phase structure. Comparison of crystal structures and packing of the four-ring 6CBB with those of the two-ring nCB or nOCB compounds has been made to explain the observed phase behaviour.

Ions K⁺ and crystal water molecules are arranged in channels between the chains. The Bi(1)...Bi(2) distances in the binuclear fragment are 4.62 Å, and the Bi(1)...Bi(1) and Bi(2)...Bi(2) distances between bismuth atoms in the chain are 5.83 and 5.95 Å, respectively. The chains are linked through bridging oxygen atoms of the ligands Cit to form layers. In the centrosymmetric four-membered chelate ring Bi₂O₂ formed through Bi-O(Cit) bonds, the distances Bi(1)-Bi(1) are equal to 4.55 Å, and Bi(1)-O are 2.66 and 2.84 Å. The Bi-O bond lengths in I are in the range 2.12–3.16 Å. The Cit ligands act as hexadentate chelating/bridging ligands.

The crystal and molecular structures of 1,1-divinyl-2,2-biimidazolyl (L) were determined by x-ray crystallographic analysis. It was established that the molecule of L has crystallographic symmetry 2 and a cisoid conformation with an angle of rotation of 128° between the imidazole rings.

Localization of the N=C multiple bond is observed [1.297(9) Å]. The other N-C bonds of the ring are almost equalized (1.374 Å) and are close to the standard values for bonds of the C _sp ²-N type in imidazoles. The angle between the plane of the heterocycle and the plane passing through the atoms of the vinyl group amounts to 7°.N. S.

Crystal and molecular structure of N-(4-nitrophenyl)-β-alanine--its vibrational spectra and theoretical calculations

The N-(4-nitrophenyl)-β-alanine in crystalline form directly by the addition of 4-nitroaniline to the acrylic acid in aqueous solution has been obtained. The title β-alanine derivative crystallizes in the P2(1)/c space group of monoclinic system with four molecules per unit cell. The X-ray geometry of β-alanine derivative molecule has been compared with those obtained by molecular orbital calculations corresponding to the gas phase. In the crystal the molecules related by an inversion center interact via symmetrically equivalent O-H···O hydrogen bonds with O···O distance of 2.656(2) ? forming a dimeric structure. The dimers of β-alanine derivative weakly interact via N-H···O hydrogen bonds between the H atom of β-amine groups and one of O atom of nitro groups. The room temperature powder vibrational (infrared and Raman) measurements are in accordance with the X-ray analysis. In aqueous solution of 4-nitroaniline and acrylic acid, the double CC bond of vinyl group of acrylic acid breaks as result of 4-nitroaniline addition.
