X-ray powder diffraction study of the stability of solid solutions in (La1−xGdx)OCl
1996
The formation of the solid solutions in the (La1−xGdx)OCl series was studied by X-ray powder diffraction (XPD) at room temperature in the 2θ region between 6.5 and 120°. The Rietveld profile refinement analyses of the XPD patterns were carried out with the background, unit cell, atomic position, isotropic temperature, and Gaussian profile form parameters refined freely. All (La1−xGdx)OCl samples possessed the tetragonal PbFCl-type structure with P4/nmm as the space group (Z=2). The unit cell parameters a and c evolve smoothly through the series and no clustering of the Gd3+ ions was observed according to Vegard's law. The solid solubility exists throughout the whole series. The valence bond…
Electron Crystallography on Polymorphs
2006
Structure analysis via electron diffraction in combination with x-ray powder diffraction and simulation methods has been performed on single crystals of small organic molecules which form polymorphs. For two different examples of pigments and non-linear optical active material data collection, cell parameter and space group determination, structure analysis and refinement are discussed.
Crystal structure and magnetism of the double perovskites A2FeReO6 (A=Ca, Sr, Ba)
2004
Abstract We synthesized a series of double perovskites A 2 FeReO 6 (A=Ca, Sr, Ba) with Curie temperatures above room-temperature. Neutron and X-ray diffraction analysis have been performed in order to determine the structural and (local) magnetic properties of these materials. While Ba 2 FeReO 6 stays cubic over the whole temperature range we examined, the Sr-compound shows a tetragonal distortion of the perovskite structure which does not completely vanish up to about 520 K far above T C . Ca 2 FeReO 6 has a monoclinic unit cell at high temperatures. Below 400 K a phase separation in two monoclinic phases with identical cell volume is observed in neutron scattering.
ChemInform Abstract: Crystal Structure and Magnetic Properties of α-Mn(H2PO2)2× H2O.
2010
Abstract The crystal structure of α-Mn(H2PO2)2·H2O has been refined from X-ray powder diffraction data. The cell is monoclinic (space group P21/c, Z − 4) with α = 7.8601(3) A , b = 7.4411(3) A , c = 10.7717(4) A and β = 102.859(2)°. The structure was refined with the Rietveld refinement principles, using as starting model the parameters of the presumably isostructural compound Zn(H2PO2)2·H2O. The structure can be described as being formed by dimeric entities Mn2O2 of edge-sharing manganese octahedra. Each group is linked through Mn-O-P-O-Mn bridges to four other groups, resulting in a three-dimensional network. The thermal variation in the susceptibility shows a sharp peak at T = 6.5 K and …
Hexakis(dimethylformamide)iron(II) complex cation in hexahalorhenate(IV)-based salts: synthesis, X-ray structure and magnetic properties
2018
Two iron(II)-rhenium(IV) compounds of general formula [FeII(dmf)6][ReIVX6] [X = Cl (1) and Br (2); dmf = N,N-dimethylformamide] have been prepared and characterized. X-ray powder diffraction measurements on samples of 1 and 2 support the same structure for both systems. The crystal structure of 1 was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. 1 crystallizes in the triclinic system with space group Pī. Each iron(II) is six-coordinate and bonded to six oxygens from six dmf molecules building a distorted octahedral environment. Rhenium(IV) is six-coordinate by six halide anions in an almost regular octahedral geometry. The magnetic properties were investigated from variable-temperature ma…
The essential identity of the framework structures of ZSM-8 and ZSM-5
1994
The crystal structures of TEA-ZSM-8 and its calcined template-free form have been studied by Rietveld analyses based on X-ray powder diffraction data. The results show that the aluminosilicate framework structure of ZSM-8 is essentially identical to that of ZSM-5. The tetraethylammonium molecule could be located in the difference Fourier analysis yielding positions similar to its TPA counterpart in ZSM-5. Lattice constants of ZSM-8 are in the same range as for ZSM-5. Contrary results are related to incorrectly indexed powder patterns. Optical investigations of ZSM-5 and ZSM-8 crystals showed that the zeolites studied here are both twinned exhibiting differently shaped twin individuals.
Preparation and structural studies on diorganotin(IV) complexes of N-nitroso-N-phenylhydroxylaminates
2007
Abstract Diorganotin(IV)-complexes of the N -nitroso- N -phenylhydroxylaminates (hereinafter cupf), Et 2 Sn(cupf) 2 ( 1 ), Bu 2 Sn(cupf) 2 ( 2 ), {[Bu 2 Sn(cupf)] 2 O} 2 ( 3 ), t -Bu 2 Sn(cupf) 2 ( 4 ) and Oc 2 Sn(cupf) 2 ( 5 , 6 ) were prepared and characterised by FT-IR and Mossbauer spectroscopic measurements. The binding modes of the ligand were identified by FT-IR spectroscopy, and it was found that the ligand is coordinated in chelating or bridging mode to the organotin(IV) center. The 119 Sn Mossbauer and FT-IR studies support the formation of trans -O h ( 1 – 6 ) structures. The X-ray diffraction analysis of 4 revealed that the tin centre is in a skew-trapezoidal geometry defined by…
Fabrication of quercetin and curcumin bionanovesicles for the prevention and rapid regeneration of full-thickness skin defects on mice
2013
In the present work biocompatible quercetin and curcumin nanovesicles were developed as a novel approach to prevent and restore skin tissue defects on chronic cutaneous pathologies. Stable and suitable quercetin- and curcumin-loaded phospholipid vesicles, namely liposomes and penetration enhancer-containing vesicles (PEVs), were prepared. Vesicles were made from a highly biocompatible mixture of phospholipids and alternatively a natural polyphenol, quercetin or curcumin. Liposomes were obtained by adding water, while PEVs by adding polyethylene glycol 400 and Oramix®CG110 to the water phase. Transmission electron microscopy, cryogenic-transmission electron microscopy and small- and wide-ang…
Spin-Crossover and Liquid Crystal Properties in 2D Cyanide-Bridged FeII−MI/II Metalorganic Frameworks
2010
Novel two-dimensional heterometallic Fe(II)-M(Ni(II), Pd(II), Pt(II), Ag(I), and Au(I)) cyanide-bridged metalorganic frameworks exhibiting spin-crossover and liquid crystal properties, formulated as {FeL(2)[M(I/II)(CN)(x)](y)}·sH(2)O, where L are the ligands 4-(4-alkoxyphenyl)pyridine, 4-(3,4-dialkoxyphenyl)pyridine, and 4-(3,4,5-trisalkoxyphenyl)pyridine, have been synthesized and characterized. The physical characterization has been carried out by means of EXAFS, X-ray powder diffraction, magnetic susceptibility, differential scanning measurements, and Mössbauer spectroscopy. The 2D Fe(II) metallomesogens undergo incomplete and continuous thermally induced spin transition at T(1/2) ≈ 170 …
