Charge Transfer Salts Based on Polyoxometalates and Seleno-Substituted Organic Donors. Synthesis, Structure, and Magnetic Properties of (BEST)3H[PMo1…
1998
Electrochemical oxidation of the tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) type organic donor bis(ethylenediseleno)tetrathiafulvalene (BEST) in the presence of the Keggin polyoxometalate [PMo12O40]3- affords the radical salt formulated as (BEST)3H[PMo12O40] (crystal data: triclinic, space group P1 with a = 13.056(1) A, b = 13.957(1) A, c = 22.302(3) A, α = 97.019(9)°, β = 94.17(1)°, γ = 95.847(9)°, and Z = 2). This is the first salt of a selenium-containing donor with a polyoxometalate cluster. The structure of this organic/inorganic hybrid consists of layers of the organic donors that alternate with polyoxometalate layers in the c direction. The organic molecules, which are completely ionized, form two ty…
Conformational investigation of α, β-dehydropeptides
2009
The crystal structure of Ac-Pro-delta Val-NHCH3 was examined to determine the influence of the alpha,beta-dehydrovaline residue on the nature of peptide conformation. The peptide crystallizes from methanol-diethyl ether solution at 4 degrees in needle-shaped form in orthorhombic space group P2(1)2(1)2(1) with a = 11.384(2) A, b = 13.277(2) A, c = 9.942(1) A, V = 1502.7(4) A3, Z = 4, Dm = 1.17 g.cm-3 and Dc = 1.18 g.cm-3. The structure was solved by direct methods using SHELXS-86 and refined to an R value of 0.057 for 1922 observed reflections. The peptide is found to adopt a beta-bend between the type I and the type III conformation with phi 1 = -68.3(4) degrees, psi 1 = -20.1(4) degrees, p…
Semicarbazides as gel forming agents for common solvents and liquid crystals
2006
This paper describes the synthesis of 14 new gelling agents with semicarbazide groups as H-bonding motifs and alkyl- and/or azobenzene side groups. They gel solvents like decaline, 1,2-dichlorobenzene and toluene and liquid crystalline mixtures. X-Ray structure analysis shows that the semicarbazides are connected by H-bonds, each molecule to four neighbours. As a result a ribbon is formed with a core of H-bonded semicarbazide groups and alkyl chains sticking to the side. IR measurements show an unchanged H-bonding motif in large crystals and in the gel fibres, even in LC-mixture. During heating the gel melts (rheology), while the H-bonding motif of the crystal disappears (IR and DSC measure…
On the reaction of [Ph2(OH)Si]2O with t-Bu2SnCl2: Synthesis and characterization of the first well defined polystannasiloxane [(t-Bu2SnO)(Ph2SiO)2]n
1997
Abstract The high yield synthesis of [(t-Bu2SnO)(Ph2SiO)2], 1 is reported. Compound 1 is a linear polymer in the solid state but a six-membered ring in solution.
FT-IR and dielectric study of water/AOT liquid crystals
2000
Abstract In order to explore the influence of microwave radiation on highly viscous microheterogeneous systems, the evolution of structural and dynamical properties of the water/sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate (AOT) liquid crystals as a function of the molar ratio R (R=[water]/[AOT]) has been investigated by FT-IR spectroscopy and time domain reflectometry. The study emphasises how the progressive hydration of the surfactant head groups is mainly responsible for the structural and dynamical evolution of water/AOT liquid crystals. In particular, it has been found that the state of water at lower R values is strongly perturbed, bulk-like water appears only at R>23 and the water/AOT in…
Liquid-crystalline ordering as a concept in materials science: from semiconductors to stimuli-responsive devices.
2013
While the unique optical properties of liquid crystals (LCs) are already well exploited for flat-panel displays, their intrinsic ability to self-organize into ordered mesophases, which are intermediate states between crystal and liquid, gives rise to a broad variety of additional applications. The high degree of molecular order, the possibility for large scale orientation, and the structural motif of the aromatic subunits recommend liquid-crystalline materials as organic semiconductors, which are solvent-processable and can easily be deposited on a substrate. The anisotropy of liquid crystals can further cause a stimuli-responsive macroscopic shape change of cross-linked polymer networks, w…
Structural study of NaNdGa4S8, a luminescent material with low-concentration quenching
1988
Abstract Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and optical investigations of NaNdGa 4 S 8 show that Nd 3+ ions are essentially distributed in two of the three square antiprismatic sites of a CaGa 2 S 4 -type lattice. The NdS 8 polyhedra are isolated (minimum NdNd distance: 6.07 A) so the interactions responsible for concentration quenching of the luminescence are considerably reduced
Experimental Investigations and ab Initio Studies on Hexacoordinated Complexes of Dichlorosilane
1998
Dichlorosilane, SiH2Cl2, forms two different kinds of coordination compounds with pyridine and 3-picoline: the simple adduct trans-SiH2Cl2(L)2 and the ionic complex [SiH2(L)4]Cl2·4CHCl3 (L = pyridine, 3-picoline). The adducts trans-SiH2Cl2(py)2, 1, and trans-SiH2Cl2(3pic)2, 2, form directly from the reaction of bis(dichlorosilyl)methylamine, NMe(SiHCl2)2 with pyridine (py), and 3-picoline (3pic). Reaction of 1 with an excess of pyridine in chloroform yielded [SiH2(py)4]Cl2·4CHCl3, 3. The molecular and crystal structures of 1−3 were investigated by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The Si atoms of all three compounds are hexacoordinated and lie on centers of inversion. The basic structural …
TaNi 2 .05Te 3 , eine Verbindung mit “aufgefüllter” TaFe 1+ x Te 3 ‐Struktur
1994
TaNi2.05Te3, a Novel Telluride with “Stuffed” TaFe1+xTe3 Structure The novel metal-rich layer compound TaNi2.05Te3 was synthesized from the elements. Its structure contains TaNi2Te3 layers which are interconnected by Ni atoms on partially occupied tetragonal-pyramidal sites located between the layers. The title compound and the related telluride TaFe1.14Te3 form a pair of compounds differing only in the occupation or nonoccupation of one 3d-material atom site. Therefore, the structure of TaNi2.05Te3, which is stabilized by interstial Ni atoms, can be regarded as a “stuffed” TaFe1.14Te3 type. Pairs of compounds with a similar structural relationship seem to be of general importance in early …
Über tetraaryl-methan-analoga in der gruppe 14
1994
Abstract The title compounds have been synthesized by Grignard reactions or pyrolysis of diplumbanes respectively. The crystal structures of m -Tol 4 Pb and Ph 4 Pb (redetermination) have been determined. All eight compounds (Ph/Tol) 4 (Sn/Pb) are S 4 symmetric and contracted along this unique axis. The 13 C-NMR chemical shifts and the couplings 1 J ( 119 Sn/ 207 Pb 13 C) as well depend additively upon the methyl substituents. The ratios 1 K ( 207 Pb 13 C): 1 K ( 119 Sn 13 C) of the reduced coupling constants are all near to 1.61; a comparison with values from the literature for alkyl, alkenyl and alkinyl substituents is given. The ratio δ( 207 Pb):δ( 119 Sn) results in 2.28. IR (700 dow…
