Design of scaffold-like metal-organic coordination polymers based on dinuclear zinc(<Emphasis Type="SmallCaps">II</Emphasis>) carboxylate complexes

Two new scaffold-like metal-organic coordination polymers, [Zn₂ndc₂bpe]·DMF and [Zn₂ndc₂dedpbp] ·4DMF (ndc is 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylate, bpe is trans-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene, and dedpbp is 4,4′-diethynyl-4″,4′″-dipyridylbiphenyl), were synthesized by heating stoichiometric amounts of zinc(II) nitrate, H₂ndc, and bpe or dedpbp in DMF. The structures of the polymers were established by X-ray diffraction. Coordination of linear dicarboxylate ligands to zinc cations gives rise to planar square-grid networks, and additional coordination of the bifunctional nitrogen-containing ligands results in the formation of scaffold-like triply interpenetrating structures with a primitive cubic topology.

Inclusion complexes of the natural product gossypol. Crystal structures of gossypol complexes with benzene and chloroform as guests

The crystal structures of the lattice inclusion complexes of gossypol with benzene and chloroform have been determined by X-ray structure analysis. The crystals of (C₃₀H₃₀O₈)₂ · C₆H₆ (GPBNZ) are triclinic, space groupPI,a = 11.241(3),b = 14.986(4),c = 17.380(4) Å, = 98.89(2), = 99.86(2), = 98.91(2)°,V = 2800(2) ų,Z = 2,D _x = 1.32 g cm^–3, (CuK ) = 7.35 cm^–1. The structure has been refined to a finalR value of 0.050 for 6146 observed reflections. The crystals of C₃₀H₃₀O₈·CHCl₃ (GPCLF) are monoclinic, space groupC2/c,a = 28.464(4),b = 8.948(1),c = 26.480(4) Å, = 108.93(2)°,V = 6380(2) ų,Z = 8,D _x = 1.33 g cm^–3, (CuK) = 30.42 cm^–1. The structure has been refined to a finalR value of 0.100 for 1980 observed reflections.GPCLF forms an intercalate-type structure and GPBNZ a clathrate-type structure. There are, however, some similarities in the packing mode of the host molecules in these two structures. On a basis of comparison of the crystal packing of GPCLF and GPBNZ one can postulate that in the desorption process of the intercalate-type GPCLF complex an intermediate clathrate structure of the GPBNZ-type should be formed.     

PHOTOEMISSION WITHIN AND BEYOND THE ONE-STEP MODEL

Photoemission in the vacuum ultraviolet photon regime has proved to be an effective tool for the investigation of valence band surface electronic structure. The interpretation cannot be exclusively confined to the valence bands but has to consider cross sections with realistic final states consistently designed within the one-step model. Therefore especially in the surface sensitive photoemission, several effects hide the final goal of deducing the energetic and wavefunction structure together with microscopic potential parameters through a convincing agreement of calculated with measured spectra. The final states band structure is much less well understood than the valence band structure under consideration. The optical potential, which controls the surface sensitivity through the underlying damping mechanisms, widely relies on empirical assumptions. Furthermore, the photon field is not only strongly influenced but in the vicinity of the plasma frequency also deteriorated by the electronic response. In view of high resolution spectroscopy the accuracy of the data interpretation is affected, and in fact, band-mapping methods are no longer valid. Examples of recent calculations to account for these effects are reviewed.     

ANISOTROPIC STRAIN EFFECT ON MORPHOLOGY AND ATOMIC STRUCTURE OF VICINAL Si(001) SURFACE

On vicinal Si(001) surfaces, dependence of growth morphology on the applied strain direction and formation of vacancy lines from Ag-induced missing dimer vacancies are studied. Both phenomena are intimately related to the anisotropic nature of the strain field which originates from the surface dimerization. Strain relief mechanism, reflecting on the surface morphology, is shown to be different in two orthogonal directions. Normal to the steps, step-pair bunching and waving lead to formation of hillocks and pits. Along the step direction, bending of step pairs forms a cusp which later develops into a deep groove. Toward the atomic scale, the formation of the vacancy lines is driven by the short-range attractive interaction between the vacancies in adjacent dimer rows and the long-range repulsive interaction between them in the same dimer row. A full form and magnitudes of the interactions are derived from the thermally-excited wandering of the vacancy lines formed by a nominal amount of Ag depositing onto the surface.

Structural Features of Solid Phases and Topology of Phase Diagrams

The paper considers model phase diagrams of binary and ternary systems involving transformations (transitions) of phase equilibria. The relationship between the type of structural solidstate transformation and the type of phase diagram is shown. Topological series of phase diagrams of systems with continuous and limited types of solid solutions are considered, including phase diagrams with polymorphic transitions between intermediate solid phases of variable composition.
