Microwave survey of the conformational landscape exhibited by the propeller molecule triethyl amine

Conformational studies with quantum chemical methods yielded for the most stable conformer of triethyl amine a propeller-like structure belonging to the point group C(3), which corresponds to an oblate top. The microwave spectrum of this conformer with (14)N hyperfine splitting of all rotational transitions was assigned and molecular parameters were determined. The rotational constants were found to be A = B = 2.314873978(11) GHz, the (14)N quadrupole coupling constant χ(cc) = -5.2444(07) MHz. The observed spectrum could be reproduced within experimental accuracy. The standard deviation of a global fit with 48 rotational transitions is 1.5 kHz. The propeller-like structure seems to be energetically favorable and therefore also typical for related systems like triethyl phosphine, triisopropyl amine, tri-n-propyl amine, and tri-tert-butyl amine. Furthermore, the rotational transitions of two isotopologues, (13)C(2) and (13)C(5), could be measured in natural abundance and fitted with an excellent standard deviation. The C rotational constants could be determined to be 1.32681(96) GHz and 1.32989(18) GHz for the (13)C(2) and (13)C(5) isotopologues, respectively.     

Observation of OD- by microwave spectroscopy

For the first time the rotational spectrum of the molecular anion OD- has been observed by microwave spectroscopy. OD- has been produced both by a positive and negative glow discharge; by investigating the Doppler shift in both cases, the unshifted frequency of the J=1<--0 rotational transition has been derived. This allowed us to improve the value of the ground-state rotational constant: B(0)=299 264.940(90) MHz. In order to assess that a negative ion has really been observed, the cation N2H+ has been produced and investigated in the same experimental conditions.     

Diode laser spectroscopy of the fundamental bands of 12C14N, 13C14N, 12C15N, 13C15N free radicals in the ground 2 Sigma+ electronic state

Rotationally resolved spectra of the fundamental band of the CN free radical in four isotopic forms have been measured using tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy. The source of the radical was a microwave discharge in a mixture of isotopically selected methane and nitrogen diluted with argon. The lines were measured to an accuracy of 5 x 10(-4) cm(-1) and fitted to the formula for the vibration rotation spectrum of a diatomic molecule, including quartic distortion constants. The band origins of each of the isotopomers from the five parameter fits were found to be 12C14N: 2042.42115(38) cm(-1), 13C14N: 2000.08479(23) cm(-1), 12C15N: 2011.25594(25) cm(-1), 13C15N: 1968.22093(33) cm(-1) with one standard deviation from the fit given in parenthesis. Some of the lines showed a resolved splitting due to the spin rotation interaction. This was averaged for fitting purposes. The average equilibrium internuclear distance derived from the upsilon = 0 and 1 rotational constants of the four isotopomers is 1.171800(6) A which is in good agreement with the value determined from microwave spectroscopy.     

Tautomerism and microsolvation in 2-hydroxypyridine/2-pyridone

The Fourier transform microwave spectra of the hydrated forms of the tautomeric pair 2-pyridinone/2-hydroxypyridine (2PO/2HP) have been investigated in a supersonic expansion. Three hydrated species, 2PO-H?O, 2HP-H?O, and 2PO-(H?O)?, have been observed in the rotational spectrum. Each molecular complex was confidently identified by the features of the 1?N quadrupole hyperfine structure of the rotational transitions. The presence of water affects the tautomeric equilibrium -N═C(OH)- ? -NH-C(═O)-, which is shifted to the enol form for the bare molecules 2PO/2HP but to the keto tautomer for the hydrated forms.     

Dissociative electron attachment to gas-phase formamide

Dissociative electron attachment (DEA) to gaseous formamide, HCONH(2), has been investigated in the energy range between 0 eV and 18 eV using a crossed electron/molecule beam technique. The negative ion fragments have been comprehensively monitored and assigned to molecular structures by comparison with the results for two differently deuterated derivatives, namely 1D-formamide, DCONH(2), and N,N,D-formamide, HCOND(2). The following products were observed: HCONH(-), CONH(2)(-), HCON(-), OCN(-), HCNH(-), CN(-), NH(2)(-)/O(-), NH(-), and H(-). NH(2)(-) was also separated from O(-) by using high-resolution negative ion mass spectrometry. Four resonant dissociation channels can be resolved, the strongest ones being located between 2.0 and 2.7 eV and between 6.0 and 7.0 eV. CN(-) as the most abundant fragment and HCONH(-) are the dominant products of the first of these two resonances. The most important products of the latter resonance are NH(2)(-), CN(-), H(-), CONH(2)(-), and OCN(-). It is thus found that the loss of neutral H is a site-selective process, dissociation from the N site taking place between 2.0 and 2.7 eV while dissociation from the C site occurs between 6.0 and 7.0 eV. The suitability of these reactions and thus of formamide as an agent for electron-induced surface functionalisation is discussed.     

Insights on the CN B 2Σ+ + Ar potential from ultraviolet fluorescence excitation and infrared depletion studies of the CN-Ar complex

UV laser-induced fluorescence and IR-UV fluorescence depletion studies have been used to characterize the intermolecular levels of the CN-Ar complex in the excited state correlating with CN B (2)Σ(+) + Ar. Additional CN-Ar features are identified to lower wavenumber than reported previously. Fluorescence depletion spectra are recorded to confirm that these CN-Ar features and other higher energy features in the B-X spectrum originate from a common ground state level. The UV depletion is induced by IR excitation of CN-Ar from the ground state zero-point level to a hindered internal rotor state (n(K) = 1(1)) in the CN overtone region. The lowest energy feature in the B-X spectrum at 25,714.1 cm(-1) is assigned as a transition to the zero-point level of the B state and also yields its binding energy, D(0) = 186(2) cm(-1), which is in excellent accord with theoretical predictions. The next feature approximately 40 cm(-1) higher is attributed to overlapping transitions to intermolecular levels with bend (v(b)(K)=1(1)) or stretch (v(s) = 1) excitation. Yet higher features (previously reported) are also assigned, based on their transition type and wavenumber, which are consistent with the intermolecular energy level pattern computed theoretically. Finally, the intensity profile of the lowest energy features in the B-X spectrum reflects the predicted change in the CN (B (2)Σ(+), X (2)Σ(+)) + Ar potentials upon electronic excitation from a weakly anisotropic potential about the linear N≡C-Ar configuration in the ground state to a more strongly bound linear C≡N-Ar structure in the excited B electronic state.

Metal-catalyzed anaerobic disproportionation of hydroxylamine. Role of diazene and nitroxyl intermediates in the formation of N2, N2O, NO+, and NH3

The catalytic disproportionation of NH(2)OH has been studied in anaerobic aqueous solution, pH 6-9.3, at 25.0 degrees C, with Na(3)[Fe(CN)(5)NH(3)].3H(2)O as a precursor of the catalyst, [Fe(II)(CN)(5)H(2)O](3)(-). The oxidation products are N(2), N(2)O, and NO(+) (bound in the nitroprusside ion, NP), and NH(3) is the reduction product. The yields of N(2)/N(2)O increase with pH and with the concentration of NH(2)OH. Fast regime conditions involve a chain process initiated by the NH(2) radical, generated upon coordination of NH(2)OH to [Fe(II)(CN)(5)H(2)O](3)(-). NH(3) and nitroxyl, HNO, are formed in this fast process, and HNO leads to the production of N(2), N(2)O, and NP. An intermediate absorbing at 440 nm is always observed, whose formation and decay depend on the medium conditions. It was identified by UV-vis, RR, and (15)NMR spectroscopies as the diazene-bound [Fe(II)(CN)(5)N(2)H(2)](3)(-) ion and is formed in a competitive process with the radical path, still under the fast regime. At high pH's or NH(2)OH concentrations, an inhibited regime is reached, with slow production of only N(2) and NH(3). The stable red diazene-bridged [(NC)(5)FeHN=NHFe(CN)(5)](6)(-) ion is formed at an advanced degree of NH(2)OH consumption.     

1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium based ionic liquids containing cyano groups: synthesis, characterization, and crystal structure

New 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium (EMI) salts [EMI][C(CN)3] and [EMI][Ag(CN)2] were prepared and characterized. The C(CN)3 salt has a melting point at -11 degrees C and shows a low viscosity (18 cP) and a high ionic conductivity (1.8 x 10(-2) S cm(-1)) at room temperature. This conductivity is less than that of [EMI][N(CN)2] salt (2.7 x 10(-2) S cm(-1)), possibly due to the larger molecular weight of the anion. The first EMI salt containing Ag(I) complexes [EMI][Ag(CN)2] has a higher melting point of 73 degrees C. In the crystal, the C-H...pi interionic interactions between cations construct zigzag chains in the cationic two-dimensional layer. Close Ag..Ag interionic contacts of 3.226(1) A were observed in the one-dimensional anionic chain, and the relatively high melting point among the EMI salts with a monoanion appears to be governed essentially by these direct Ag...Ag interactions.     

Crossed beam studies of elementary reactions of N and C atoms and CN radicals of importance in combustion

The dynamics of some elementary reactions of N(2D), C(3P,1D) and CN(X2 sigma +) of importance in combustion have been investigated by using the crossed molecular beam scattering method with mass spectrometric detection. The novel capability of producing intense, continuous beams of the radical reagents by a radio-frequency discharge beam source was exploited. From angular and velocity distribution measurements obtained in the laboratory frame, primary reaction products have been identified and their angular and translational energy distributions in the center-of-mass system, as well as branching ratios, have been derived. The dominant N/H exchange channel has been examined in the reaction N(2D) + CH4, which is found to lead to H + CH2NH (methylenimine) and H + CH3N (methylnitrene); no H2 elimination is observed. In the reaction N(2D) + H2O the N/H exchange channel has been found to occur via two competing pathways leading to HNO + H and HON + H, while formation of NO + H2 is negligible. Formation of H + H2CCCH (propargyl) is the dominant pathway, at low collision energy (Ec), of the C(3P) + C2H4 reaction, while at high Ec formation of the less stable C3H3 isomers (cyclopropenyl and/or propyn-1-yl) also occurs; the H2 elimination channel is negligible. The H elimination channel has also been found to be the dominant pathway in the C(3P,1D) + CH3CCH reaction leading to C4H3 isomers and, again, no H2 elimination has been observed to occur. In contrast, both H and H2 elimination, leading in comparable ratio to C3H + H and C3(X1 sigma g+) + H2(X1 sigma g+), respectively, have been observed in the reaction C(3P) + C2H2(X1 sigma g+). The occurrence of the spin-forbidden molecular pathway in this reaction, never detected before, has been rationalized by invoking the occurrence of intersystem crossing between triplet and singlet manifolds of the C3H2 potential energy surfaces. The reaction CN(X2 sigma +) + C2H2 has been found to lead to internally excited HCCCN (cyanoacetylene) + H. For all the reactions the dynamics have been discussed in the light of recent theoretical calculations on the relevant potential energy surfaces. Previous, lower resolution studies on C and CN reactions carried out using pulsed beams are noted. Finally, throughout the paper the relevance of these results to combustion chemistry is considered.     

Rotational spectroscopy and equilibrium structures of S3 and S4

The sulfur molecules thiozone S3 and tetrasulfur S4 have been observed in a supersonic molecular beam in the centimeter-wave band by Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy, and in the millimeter- and submillimeter-wave bands in a low-pressure glow discharge. For S3 over 150 rotational transitions between 10 and 458 GHz were measured, and for S4 a comparable number between 6 and 271 GHz. The spectrum of S3 is reproduced to within the measurement uncertainties by an asymmetric top Hamiltonian with three rotational and 12 centrifugal distortion constants; ten distortion constants, but an additional term to account for very small level shifts caused by interchange tunneling, are required to reproduce to comparable accuracy the spectrum of S4. Empirical equilibrium (r(e)(emp)) structures of S3 and S4 were derived from experimental rotational constants of the normal and sulfur-34 species and vibrational corrections from coupled-cluster theory calculations. Quantum chemical calculations show that interchange tunneling occurs because S4 automerizes through a transition state with D2h symmetry which lies about 500 cm(-1) above the two equivalent C2upsilon minima on the potential energy surface.     

State-resolved dynamics of the CN(B2Sigma+) and CH(A2Delta) excited products resulting from the VUV photodissociation of CH3CN

Fourier transform visible spectroscopy, in conjunction with VUV photons produced by a synchrotron, is employed to investigate the photodissociation of CH3CN. Emission is observed from both the CN(B2Sigma+-X2Sigma+) and CH(A2Delta-X2Pi) transitions; only the former is observed in spectra recorded at 10.2 and 11.5 eV, whereas both are detected in the 16 eV spectrum. The rotational and vibrational temperatures of both the CN(B2Sigma+) and CH(A2Delta) radical products are derived using a combination of spectral simulations and Boltzmann plots. The CN(B2Sigma+) fragment displays a bimodal rotational distribution in all cases. Trot(CN(B2Sigma+)) ranges from 375 to 600 K at lower K' and from 1840 to 7700 K at higher K' depending on the photon energy used. Surprisal analyses indicate clear bimodal rotational distributions, suggesting CN(B2Sigma+) is formed via either linear or bent transition states, respectively, depending on the extent of rotational excitation in this fragment. CH(A2Delta) has a single rotational distribution when produced at 16 eV, which results in Trot(CH(A2Delta))=4895+/-140 K in v'=0 and 2590+/-110 K in v'=1. From thermodynamic calculations, it is evident that CH(A2Delta) is produced along with CN(X2Sigma+)+H2. These products can be formed by a two step mechanism (via excited CH3* and ground state CN(X2Sigma+)) or a process similar to the "roaming" atom mechanism; the data obtained here are insufficient to definitively conclude whether either pathway occurs. A comparison of the CH(A2Delta) and CN(B2Sigma+) rotational distributions produced by 16 eV photons allows the ratio between the two excited fragments at this energy to be determined. An expression that considers the rovibrational populations of both band systems results in a CH(A2Delta):CN(B2Sigma+) ratio of (1.2+/-0.1):1 at 16 eV, thereby indicating that production of CH(A2Delta) is significant at 16 eV.     

C=C π Bond Modified Graphitic Carbon Nitride Films for Enhanced Photoelectrochemical Cell Performance

Applications of graphitic carbon nitride (g‐CN) in photoelectrochemical and optoelectronic devices are still hindered due to the difficulties in synthesis of g‐CN films with tunable chemical, physical and catalytic properties. Herein we present a general method to alter the electronic and photoelectrochemical properties of g‐CN films by annealing. We found that N atoms can be removed from the g‐CN networks after annealing treatment. Assisted by theoretical calculations, we confirm that upon appropriate N removal, the adjacent C atoms will form new C=C π bonds. Detailed calculations demonstrate that the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) are located at the structure unit with C=C π bonds and the electrons are more delocalized. Valence band X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy spectra together with optical absorption spectra unveil that the structure changes result in the alteration of the g‐CN energy levels and position of band edges. Our results show that the photocurrent density of the annealed g‐CN film is doubled compared with the pristine one, thanks to the better charge separation and transport within the film induced by the new C=C π bonds. An ultrathin TiO₂ film (2.2 nm) is further deposited on the g‐CN film as stabilizer and the photocurrent density is kept at 0.05 mA cm⁻² at 1.23 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode after two‐cycle stability assessment. This work enables the applications of g‐CN films in many electronic and optoelectronic devices.     

CN− secondary ions form by recombination as demonstrated using multi-isotope mass spectrometry of 13C- and 15N-labeled polyglycine

We have studied the mechanism of formation CN- secondary ions under Cs+ primary ion bombardment. We have synthesized 13C and 15N labeled polyglycine samples with the distance between the two labels and the local atomic environment of the 13C label systematically varied. We have measured four masses in parallel: 12C, 13C, and two of 12C14N, 13C14N, 12C15N, and 13C15N. We have calculated the 13C/12C isotope ratio, and the different combinations of the CN isotope ratios (27CN/26CN, 28CN/27CN, and 28CN/26CN). We have measured a high 13C15N- secondary ion current from the 13C and 15N labeled polyglycines, even when the 13C and 15N labels are separated. By comparing the magnitude of the varied combinations of isotope ratios among the samples with different labeling positions, we conclude the following: CN- formation is in large fraction due to recombination of C and N; the CO double bond decreases the extent of CN- formation compared to the case where carbon is singly bonded to two hydrogen atoms; and double-labeling with 13C and 15N allows us to detect with high sensitivity the molecular ion 13C15N-.     

Millimetre wave spectroscopy of PANHs: phenanthridine

The pure rotational spectrum of phenanthridine (C(13)H(9)N), a small polycyclic aromatic nitrogen heterocycle (PANH), has been measured from 48 to 85 GHz employing Stark modulated millimetre wave absorption spectroscopy of a supersonic rotationally cold molecular beam. Initial survey search scans were guided by rotational constants obtained through quantum chemical calculations performed at the B3LYP/cc-pVTZ level of theory. Close agreement--to well within 1%--is found between the calculated equilibrium and experimentally derived ground state rotational constants. From the moments of inertia a substantial negative inertial defect of Delta = -0.4688(44) amu Angstroms(2) is obtained which can be explained by the presence of several energetically low-lying out-of-plane vibrational modes. Corresponding density functional theory calculations of harmonic fundamental frequencies indeed yield four such low frequency modes with values as low as 96 cm(-1). The data presented here will also be useful for deep radio astronomical searches for PANHs employing large radio telescopes.     

A simple approach to coordination compounds of the pentacyanocyclopentadienide anion

Deprotonation of [Et(3)NH][C(5)(CN)(5)] with metal bases provides a very simple approach to coordination compounds containing the pentacyanocyclopentadienide anion [C(5)(CN)(5)](-) (1). The three-dimensional polymer [Na(thf)(1.5)(1)](∞) and the molecular dimer [{(tmeda)(2)Na(1)}(2)] are obtained by reaction of this precursor with NaH in the presence of thf or tmeda (Me(2)NCH(2)CH(2)NMe(2)). Their single-crystal X-ray structures both reveal σ-bonded C≡N-Na arrangements and π stacking between [C(5)(CN)(5)](-) ions. DFT calculations on the [C(5)(CN)(5)](-) ion have been used to investigate the structures and bonding in [Na(thf)(1.5)(1)](∞) and [{(tmeda)(2)Na(1)}(2)]. The absence of π bonding of the metal ions in both complexes is due to dispersion of the negative charge from the C(5) ring unit to the C[triple chemical bond]N groups in the [C(5)(CN)(5)](-) ion, making the coordination chemistry of this anion distinctly different from that of cyclopentadienide C(5)H(5)(-).     

Preparation of N,N'-bisethoxyethane[12]amideferrocenophane and its application in anion recognition

Novel N,N'-bisethoxyethane[12]amideferrocenophane has been synthesized by a condensation reaction and characterized by (1)H NMR and mass spectrum. The anion recognition properties of the compound are evaluated via (1)H NMR, FT-IR, and electrochemical measurement. It is found that N,N'-bisethoxyethane[12]amideferrocenophane exhibits remarkable electrochemical response to H(2)PO(4-) anion in CH(2)C(l2) or CH(3)CN solution, and response to anions can also be observed in CH(3)CN solution containing up to 15% water. Binding constants between the compound and HSO(4-) in different solutions have been determined by UV-vis spectrum titration experiments. The results indicate that the compound shows a selective recognition trend of H(2)PO(4-) > HSO(4-) (F(-)) > Br(-).     

Trimerization of alkali dicyanamides M[N(CN)2] and formation of tricyanomelaminates M3[C6N9] (M = K, Rb) in the melt: crystal structure determination of three polymorphs of K[N(CN)2], two of Rb[N(CN)2], and one of K3[C6N9] and Rb3[C6N9] from X-ray powder diffractometry

The alkali dicyanamides M[N(CN)2] (M=K, Rb) were synthesized through ion exchange, and the corresponding tricyanomelaminates M3[C6N9] were obtained by heating the respective dicyanamides. The thermal behavior of the dicyanamides and their reaction to form the tricyanomelaminates were investigated by temperature-dependent X-ray powder diffractometry and thermoanalytical measurements. Potassium dicyanamide K[N(CN)2] was found to undergo four phase transitions: At 136 degrees C the low-temperature modification alpha-K[N(CN)2] transforms to beta-K[N(CN)2], and at 187degrees C the latter transforms to the high-temperature modification gamma-K[N(CN)2], which melts at 232 degrees C. Above 310 degrees C the dicyanamide ions [N(CN)2]- trimerize and the resulting tricyanomelaminate K3[C6N9] solidifies. Two modifications of rubidium dicyanamide have been identified: Even at -25 degrees C, the a form slowly transforms to beta-Rb[N(CN)2] within weeks. Rb[N(CN)2] has a melting point of 190 degrees C. Above 260 degrees C the dicyanamide ions [N(CN)2]- of the rubidium salt trimerize in the melt and the tricyanomelaminate Rb3[C6N9] solidifies. The crystal structures of all phases were determined by powder diffraction methods and were refined by the Rietveld method. alpha-K[N(CN)2] (Pbcm, a = 836.52(1), b = 46.90(1), c =7 21.27(1) pm, Z = 4), gamma-K[N(CN)2] (Pnma, a = 855.40(3), b = 387.80(1), 1252.73(4) pm, Z = 4), and Rb[N(CN)2] (C2/c, a = 1381.56(2), b = 1000.02(1), c = 1443.28(2) pm, 116.8963(6) degrees, Z = 16) represent new structure types. The crystal structure of beta-K[N(CN)2] (P2(1/n), a = -726.92(1), b 1596.34(2), c = 387.037(5) pm, 111.8782(6) degrees, Z = 4) is similar but not isotypic to the structure of alpha Na[N(CN)2]. alpha-Rb[N(CN)2] (Pbcm, a = 856.09(1), b = 661.711(7), c = 765.067(9) pm, Z = 4) is isotypic with alpha-K[N(CN)2]. The alkali dicyanamides contain the bent planar anion [N(CN)2]- of approximate symmetry C2, (average bond lengths: C-N(bridge) 133, C-N(term) 113 pm; average angles N-C-N 170 degrees, C-N-C 120 degrees). K3[C6N9] (P2(1/c), a = 373.82(1), b = 1192.48(5), c = 2500.4(1) pm, beta = 101.406(3) degrees, Z = 4) and Rb,[C6N9] (P2(1/c), a = 389.93(2), b = 1226.06(6), c = 2547.5(1) pm, 98.741(5) degrees, Z=4) are isotypic and they contain the planar cyclic anion [C6N9]3-. Although structurally related, Na3[C6N9] is not isotypic with the tricyanomelaminates M3[C6N9] (M = K, Rb).     

Synthesis, characterization, and DFT/TD-DFT calculations of highly phosphorescent blue light-emitting anionic iridium complexes

Highly phosphorescent blue-light-emitting anionic iridium complexes (C4H9)4N[Ir(2-phenylpyridine)2(CN)2] (1), (C4H9)4N[Ir(2-phenyl-4-dimethylaminopyridine)2(CN)2] (2), (C4H9)4N[Ir(2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)-pyridine)2(CN)2] (3), (C4H9)4N[Ir(2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)-4-dimethylaminopyridine)2(CN)2] (4), and (C4H9)4N[Ir(2-(3,5-difluorophenyl)-4-dimethylaminopyridine)2(CN)2] (5) were synthesized and characterized using NMR, UV-vis absorption, and emission spectroscopy and electrochemical methods. In these complexes color and quantum yield tuning aspects are demonstrated by modulating the ligands with substituting donor and acceptor groups on both the pyridine and phenyl moieties of 2-phenylpyridine. Complexes 1-5 display intense photoluminescence maxima in the blue region of the visible spectrum and exhibit very high phosphorescence quantum yields, in the range of 50-80%, with excited-state lifetimes of 1-4 micros in acetonitrile solution at 298 K. DFT and time dependent-DFT calculations were performed on the ground and excited states of the investigated complexes to provide insight into the structural, electronic, and optical properties of these systems.     

Microwave spectrum of cyclohexanecarbonitrile

The microwave rotational spectrum of cyclohexanecarbonitrile was investigated in the frequency region 8–40 GHz. From the measured transition frequencies the rotational constants of the two molecular were derived (equatorial isomer: A = 4238.77, B = 1399.172, C = 1128.845 MHz; axial isomer: A = 3005.58, B = 1763.483, C = 1558.615 MHz). Assuming the values of 1.531, 1.096 and 1.159 Å, respectively, for the CC, CH and CN distances, and supposing that the ring structure has the same symmetry as in cyclohexane, the following structural parameters were also obtained: equatorial isomer CCC (carbon ring) = 111.40°, r(CCN) = 1.489 Å, HCCN = 107.42°; axial isomer CCC (carbon ring) = 111.65°, r(CCN) = 1.489 Å, HCCN = 105.53°.
