繁荣学术,服务产业,正五十,再出发

<正>疫情蔓延却挡不住时代悦动的脉搏,随着2022年新春钟声的敲响,《人工晶体学报》也迎来了创刊50周年。20世纪60年代后期,位于北京郊区的原国家建材局人工晶体研究所为了方便所内技术交流,创办了内部刊物《人工晶体译丛》,主要刊载所内技术人员翻译的国外相关领域最新进展。到1972年,期刊刊登范围逐步扩大,陆续刊出所内研究简报、研究论文等,同时也报道国内相关团队的研究近况,遂更名《人工晶体》。时值我国国防工业建设高潮,与国防工业关系密切的人工晶体材料正取得日新月异的发展,水晶、金刚石、云母三大合成晶体相继研发成功并走向市场,激光晶体、非线性光学晶体、闪烁晶体、压电晶体等一大批晶体合成成功,晶体界急需一本自己的专业期刊方便国内同行的交流。在老一辈晶体专家吴乾章等的共同倡议和努力下,《人工晶体》确定为中国硅酸盐学会晶体生长与材料专业委员会的代表会刊,从此走上时代舞台,肩负起传播中国晶体文化,引领中国晶体科技发展的历史使命。1989年,《人工晶体》更名《人工晶体学报》。

Synthesis,structure, spectroscopic investigations,and computational studies of optically pure β-ketoamide

Chemical preparation, X-ray single crystal diffraction, IR and NMR spectroscopic investigations of a novel nonlinear optical organic compound (C₁₇H₂₂NO₂Cl) are described. The compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic system with the non-centrosymmetric sp. gr. P2₁2₁2₁. In the crystal structure, molecules are interconnected by N–H…O hydrogen bonds forming infinite chains along a axis. The Hirshfeld surface and associated fingerprint plots of the compound are presented to explore the nature of intermolecular interactions and their relative contributions in building the solid-state architecture. The molecular HOMO–LUMO compositions and their respective energy gaps are also drawn to explain the activity of the compound. The first hyperpolarizability β_tot of the title compound is determined using DFT calculations. The optical properties are also investigated by UV–Vis absorption spectrum.     

Synthesis,Crystal Structure,Antioxidant, and α-Glucosidase Inhibitory Activities of Methoxy-substituted Benzohydrazide Derivatives

Eight methoxy substituted at the benzylidene moiety benzohydrazide derivatives [R = 2-OCH₃ (1), 3-OCH₃ (2), 4-OCH₃ (3), 2,3-(OCH₃)₂ (4), 3,4-(OCH₃)₂ (5), 2,4,5-(OCH₃)₃ (6), 2,4,6-(OCH₃)₃ (7), and 3,4,5-(OCH₃)₃ (8)] were synthesized and characterized by ¹H NMR, FT-IR and UV-Vis spectroscopy. The crystal structure of 4 was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction (sp. gr. Pbca, Z = 8). The molecule is slightly twisted with the dihedral angle between the two phenyl rings being 9.33(14)°. The methoxy group at the ortho position is twisted [C–O–C–C angle is–109.2(3)°] whereas the other at meta position is co-planar with the attached benzene ring. In the crystal packing, the molecules are linked into two-dimensional network parallel to the (001) plane by O–H···O, O–H···N, and N–H···O hydrogen bonds. Compounds 1–8 were evaluated for an antioxidant and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities and the results suggested that the ?OCH₃ substituent was ineffective for bioactivity enhancement.

C₂₀H₃₀O₃, M _r =318.46, Monoclinic,P2₁,a=12.232(2) ,b=11.491(2) ,c=14.160(3) , =115.2°(3),V=1800.3(7) ³,Z=4,D _x =1.18 Mg m^–3, (CuK)=1.5418 , =5.3 cm^–1,F(000)=696,T=298 K. FinalR=0.044 for 2645 reflections withI>2. The two crystallographically independent molecules in the unit cell adopt essentially similar conformations. The structure reveals atrans relationship between the hydrogen at C(9) and the methyl group at C(20). The stereochemistry at C(13) is S. Apart from van der Waals forces the structure is stabilized by hydrogen bonds.     

BLCS 98 13th British Liquid Crystal Society Annual Meeting Bodington Hall,Leeds, UK, 6–8 April, 1998

Abstract

The 13th Annual British Liquid Crystal Society meeting was hosted by Professor Neville Boden at Leeds University. The conference was held at Bodington Hall, a single site conference venue three miles to the north of the University and city centre. BLCS 98 was attended by 123 delegates from academe and industry, and was kindly sponsored by Linkam Scientific, Taylor & Francis and Novocontrol International.     

New large grain,highly crystalline,transparent glass–ceramics

Two main reasons assure the transparency in the visible of some glass–ceramics (TGC): their crystal sizes are much smaller than the wavelength of light or the difference between the refractive index of glass matrix and crystal phase is small. The majority of traditional TGC have nano-size crystals and small to moderate crystallized volume fraction, usually between 3% and 70%. In this article we present a new type of transparent glass–ceramics having large (micrometric) grain size and very high crystallized volume fraction, which reaches up to 97%. Their high transparency mainly results from simultaneous variations of the glass matrix and crystal compositions during crystallization, which considerably decreases the difference between the respective refractive indexes, and this factor prevails, regardless of crystal size. Preliminary tests of their optical properties indicate that this new family of TGC can be further developed by doping with transition metals and rare-earths.     

Crystal structures of double vanadates, Ca9 R(VO4)7 ⋅ III. R = Nd, Sm, Gd, or Ce

The crystal structures of Ca₉ R(VO₄)₇ (R = Nd (I), Sm (II), or Gd (III)) were studied by the Rietveld method. The compounds are isostructural to Ca₃(VO₄)₂ and are crystallized in the trigonal system (sp. gr. R3c, Z = 6). The unit-cell parameters are as follows: for I, a = 10.8720(5) Å, c = 38.121(1) Å; for II, a = 10.8652(5) Å, c = 38.098(1) Å; and for III, a = 10.8631(5) Å, c = 38.072(1) Å. In the structures of I and II, the M(1), M(2), and M(3) positions are statistically occupied by the rare-earth cations and calcium anions. In the structure of III, the Gd³⁺ cations occupy the _M(1) and _M(2) positions. The distributions of the R ³⁺ cations over the positions are characteristic of each structure. The composition of the cerium-ontaining compound Ca_9.81Ce_0.42(VO₄)₇ (a = 10.8552(5) Å, c = 38.037(1) Å) was refined and its crystal structure was solved from the X-ray powder data. In this compound, cerium atoms are in the oxidation states +3 and +4.     

Crystal structure of tisinalite Na2(Mn,Ca)1 − x (Ti,Zr,Nb,Fe3+)[Si6O8(O,OH)10]

Crystal structure of tisinalite from the Lovozero alkaline massif (the Kola Peninsula) was established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis (SYNTEX $\bar P1$ diffractometer, λMoK_α radiation, 2θ/θ scanning mode). The structure solution (SHELX97 program package, R _hkl = 0.0565, 951 independent reflections, anisotropic refinement of thermal atomic displacements) confirmed that tisinalite belongs to the lovozerite structure type (sp. gr., $\bar P1$ , a = 10.036(5) Å, c = 12.876(9) Å, Z = 3). The difference between the structure of tisinalite and the structures of the minerals of the lovozerite group established earlier consists in the nature of the occupancy of both cation and anion positions.     

Growth,structural, optical and thermal properties of potential THz material: N,N-dimethylamino-N′-methylstilbazolium 4-styrenesulphonate

N,N-dimethylamino-N′-methylstilbazolium 4-styrenesulphonate (DSSS), was synthesized by metathesization of the N,N-dimethylamino-N′-methylstilbazolium iodide (DASI) salt with sodium 4-styrenesulfonate. The growth of DSSS single crystal was carried out by adopting the slope nucleation coupled slow evaporation method. DSSS crystals with size 4×2×1 mm³ were grown within a period of 15 days. The structure and composition of the crystal were studied by single crystal X-ray diffraction, CHN and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analyses. The FTIR results reveal the existence of the vinyl groups and their corresponding vibrational modes. The melting point and thermal behavior of DSSS were investigated using differential scanning calorimetric (DSC) and thermogravimetric analyses (TGA).
