The synthesis is based on a partial ligand exchange reaction, which proceeds upon dissolving [Nb6Cl14(pyz)(4)]middot2CH(2)Cl(2) in acetonitrile. The compound is built up of two discrete neutral cluster units, which consist of octahedra of Nb-6 atoms coordinated by 12 edge-bridging chlorido and two terminal chlorido ligands, and four acetonitrile ligands on one and four pyrazine ligands on the other cluster unit. Co-crystallized acetonitrile molecules are also present. The single-crystal structure determination has revealed a cluster arrangement in which the [Nb6Cl14(pyz)(4)] units are connected by (halogen) lone-pair-(pyrazine) pi interactions. These lead to chains of [Nb6Cl14(pyz)(4)] clusters. These chains are further connected to cluster layers by (nitrile-halogen) dipole-dipole interactions, in which the [Nb6Cl14(MeCN)(4)] and co-crystallized MeCN molecules are also involved. These cluster layers are arranged parallel to the crystallographic {011} plane.}, language = {en} } @article{FranzToebbensLehmannetal.2020, author = {Franz, Alexandra and T{\"o}bbens, Daniel M. and Lehmann, Frederike and K{\"a}rgell, Martin and Schorr, Susan}, title = {The influence of deuteration on the crystal structure of hybrid halide perovskites: a temperature-dependent neutron diffraction study of FAPbBr(3)}, series = {Acta crystallographica; Section B, Structural science, crystal engineering and materials}, volume = {76}, journal = {Acta crystallographica; Section B, Structural science, crystal engineering and materials}, number = {2}, publisher = {Wiley-Blackwell}, address = {Oxford [u.a.]}, issn = {2052-5206}, doi = {10.1107/S2052520620002620}, pages = {267 -- 274}, year = {2020}, abstract = {This paper discusses the full structural solution of the hybrid perovskite formamidinium lead tribromide (FAPbBr(3)) and its temperature-dependent phase transitions in the range from 3 K to 300 K using neutron powder diffraction and synchrotron X-ray diffraction. Special emphasis is put on the influence of deuteration on formamidinium, its position in the unit cell and disordering in comparison to fully hydrogenated FAPbBr(3). The temperature-dependent measurements show that deuteration critically influences the crystal structures, i.e. results in partially-ordered temperature-dependent structural modifications in which two symmetry-independent molecule positions with additional dislocation of the molecular centre atom and molecular angle inclinations are present.}, language = {en} } @article{PazHeydenreichSchmidtetal.2018, author = {Paz, Cristian and Heydenreich, Matthias and Schmidt, Bernd and Vadra, Nahir and Baggio, Ricardo}, title = {Three new dihydro-beta-agarofuran sesquiterpenes from the seeds of Maytenus boaria}, series = {Acta Crystallographica Section C}, volume = {74}, journal = {Acta Crystallographica Section C}, publisher = {International Union of Crystallography}, address = {Chester}, issn = {2053-2296}, doi = {10.1107/S2053229618005429}, pages = {564 -- 570}, year = {2018}, abstract = {As part of a project studying the secondary metabolites extracted from the Chilean flora, we report herein three new beta-agarofuran sesquiterpenes, namely (1S,4S,5S,6R,7R,8R,9R,10S)-6-acetoxy-4,9-dihydroxy-2,2,5a,9-tetramethyloctahydro-2H-3,9a-methanobenzo[b] oxepine-5,10-diylbis(furan-3-carboxylate), C27H32O11, (II), (1S,4S,5S,6R,7R,9S,10S)-6-acetoxy-9-hydroxy-2,2,5a, 9-tetramethyloctahydro-2H-3,9a-methanobenzo[ b] oxepine-5,10-diyl bis(furan-3-carboxylate), C27H32O10, (III), and (1S,4S,5S,6R,7R,9S,10S)-6-acetoxy-10-(benzoyloxy)-9-hydroxy-2,2,5a,9-tetramethyloctahydro-2H-3,9a-methanobenzo[b]oxepin-5-yl furan-3-carboxylate, C29H34O9, (IV), obtained from the seeds of Maytenus boaria and closely associated with a recently published relative [Paz et al. (2017). Acta Cryst. C73, 451-457]. In the (isomorphic) structures of (II) and (III), the central decalin system is esterified with an acetate group at site 1 and furoate groups at sites 6 and 9, and differ at site 8, with an OH group in (II) and no substituent in (III). This position is also unsubstituted in (IV), with site 6 being occupied by a benzoate group. The chirality of the skeletons is described as 1S, 4S, 5S, 6R, 7R, 8R, 9R, 10S in (II) and 1S, 4S, 5S, 6R, 7R, 9S, 10S in (III) and (IV), matching the chirality suggested by NMR studies. This difference in the chirality sequence among the title structures (in spite of the fact that the three skeletons are absolutely isostructural) is due to the differences in the environment of site 8, i.e. OH in (II) and H in (III) and (IV). This diversity in substitution, in turn, is responsible for the differences in the hydrogen-bonding schemes, which is discussed.}, language = {en} } @article{SchildeKellingUmbreenetal.2016, author = {Schilde, Uwe and Kelling, Alexandra and Umbreen, Sumaira and Linker, Torsten}, title = {Crystal structures of three bicyclic carbohydrate derivatives}, series = {Acta crystallographica, Section E, Crystallographic communications}, volume = {72}, journal = {Acta crystallographica, Section E, Crystallographic communications}, publisher = {International Union of Crystallography}, address = {Chester}, issn = {2056-9890}, doi = {10.1107/S2056989016018727}, pages = {1839 -- +}, year = {2016}, abstract = {The title compounds, [(1R,3R,4R,5R,6S)-4,5-bis(acetyloxy)-7-oxo-2-oxabicyclo-[4.2.0]octan-3-yl]methyl acetate, C14H18O8, (I), [(1S,4R,5S,6R)-5-acetyloxy-7-hydroxyimino-2-oxobicyclo[4.2.0] octan-4-yl acetate, C11H15NO6, (II), and [(3aR, 5R, 6R, 7R, 7aS)-6,7-bis(acetyloxy)-2-oxooctahydropyrano[3,2-b]pyrrol-5-yl] methyl acetate, C14H19NO8, (III), are stable bicyclic carbohydrate derivatives.

In the free base porphyrins the former uses mainly out-of-plane distortion to alleviate steric strain while in-plane core elongation predominates in the latter. In contrast, the structure of the Cu(II) complex is planar and forms strong p-p aggregates with very small lateral shifts.
