Single crystals of (E)-N'-(4-isopropylbenzylidene)isonicotinohydrazide monohydrate (IBIHM) were grown from ethanol by the slow evaporation from solution growth technique at room temperature. The structure was elucidated by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and crystallized in the orthorhombic system with noncentrosymmetric space group P212121. Optical studies reveal that the absorption was minimum in the visible region and the band-gap energy was estimated using the Kubelka-Munk algorithm. The functional groups were identified by Fourier transform infrared spectral analysis. A scanning electron microscopy study revealed the surface morphology of the grown crystal. Investigation of the intermolecular interactions, crystal packing using Hirshfeld surface analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction confirm that the close contacts were associated with molecular interactions. Fingerprint plots of Hirshfeld surfaces are used to locate and analyze the percentage of hydrogen-bonding interactions. The second-harmonic generation efficiency of the grown specimen was superior to that of the reference material, potassium dihydrogen phosphate. The grown crystals were further characterized by mass spectrometry and elemental analysis. Theoretical studies using density functional theory (DFT) greatly substantiated the experimental observations. Large first-order molecular hyperpolarizability (β) of about ∼70× was observed for IBIHM. Selleckchem Deruxtecan The efficiency of IBIHM in terms of nonlinear optical response was verified and the molecule displayed greater chemical stability and reactivity.The novel π-coordination compound [CuI(m-dmphast)NO3], where m-dmphast = 5-(allylthio)-1-(3,5-dimethylphenyl)-1H-tetrazole, is characterized using single-crystal X-ray diffraction and crystallizes in a noncentrosymmetric space group. Additionally, for the first time in this group of materials, the streaks of X-ray diffuse scattering in the reciprocal space sections were observed and described. This gave the possibility for a deeper insight into the local structure of the title compound. The conjecture about the origin of diffuse scattering was derived from average structure solution. It was then confirmed using the local structure modelling. The extended [Cu(m-dmphast)NO3]∞ chains, connected by weak interactions, produce layers which can exist in two enantiomeric forms, one of which predominates.The synthesis and characterization of a new aluminophosphate, Na6[Al3P5O20], obtained as single crystals in the same experiment together with Cl-sodalite, Na8[Al6Si6O24]Cl2, is reported. Na6[Al3P5O20], with a strongly pseudo-orthorhombic lattice, is described by the monoclinic crystal structure established in the study of a pseudomerohedric microtwin. The design of Na6[Al3P5O20] can be interpreted as an alternative to sodalite, with a monoclinic (pseudo-orthorhombic) 2×4×1 super-structure and unit-cell parameters multiples of those of sodalite a ≃ 2as, b ≃ 4bs and c ≃ cs. The triperiodic framework is built by AlO6, AlO4 and PO4 polyhedra having vertex-bridging contacts. While all the oxygen vertices of the Al-centred octahedra and tetrahedra are shared with phosphate groups, some of the PO4 tetrahedra remain `pendant', e.g. containing vertices not shared with other polyhedra of the aluminophosphate construction. Na atoms occupy framework channels and cavities surrounded by eight-, six- and four-membered windows with maximal effective pore widths of 4.86 × 3.24 and 4.31 × 3.18 Å. The generalized framework density is equal to 19.8, which means that the compound may be classified as a microporous zeolite. The Na6[Al3P5O20] crystal structure is discussed as being formed from octahedral rods arranged in two perpendicular directions, similar to the rods elongated in one direction in the NASICON-type compounds, which have been intensively investigated as promising materials for batteries. Analogous properties can be expected for phases with a modified composition of the Na6Al3P5O20 topology, where the Al atoms at the centres of octahedra are replaced by Fe, V or Cr.The single crystal growth and sequence of reversible phase transition are described for C3H5N2Al(SO4)2·6H2O. Thermal and structural analyses combined with dielectric studies and optical observations revealed the structural phase transition at T1 = 339/340 K (I↔II) and T2 = 347/348 K (II↔III) on heating and cooling, respectively. Both phase transitions are of the first-order type. The symmetry changes from monoclinic to trigonal phase. At 293 K, the large crystals are usually divided into numerous domains of the ferroelastic type that disappear above T1 on heating and reappear below T1 on cooling. The domain structure pattern is characteristic for the transition between trigonal and monoclinic phases. The changes of entropy and clear increase of permittivity at T1 provide evidence for the order-disorder character of this phase transition. The transition at T2 seems to be displacive.The magnetic structure in Er3Cu4Sn4 has been determined using high-resolution powder neutron diffraction, supported by symmetry analysis. At low temperatures, Er3Cu4Sn4 assumes a crystal structure of the Tm3Cu4Sn4 type (in the monoclinic space group C2/m). The Er atoms occupy two distinct Wyckoff sites 2c and 4i. It has been found that the Er magnetic moments on the 2c site form a commensurate antiferromagnetic structure (k1 = [0, 0, ½]) below 6 K. The magnetic moments reach 8.91 (8) μB at 1.4 K and are parallel to the b axis. The Er magnetic moments on the 4i site order below 2 K and form an incommensurate antiferromagnetic sine-modulated structure (k2 = [1, 0.4667 (1), ½]), with magnetic moments lying in the ac plane and perpendicular to the a axis. The amplitude of modulation equals 8.7 (1) μB at 1.4 K.The crystal structures of two polymorphs of a phenazine hexacyanoferrate(II) salt/cocrystal, with the formula (Hphen)3[H2Fe(CN)6][H3Fe(CN)6]·2(phen)·2H2O, are reported. The polymorphs are comprised of (Hphen)2[H2Fe(CN)6] trimers and (Hphen)[(phen)2(H2O)2][H3Fe(CN)6] hexamers connected into two-dimensional (2D) hydrogen-bonded networks through strong hydrogen bonds between the [H2Fe(CN)6]2- and [H3Fe(CN)6]- anions. The layers are further connected by hydrogen bonds, as well as through π-π stacking of phenazine moieties. Aside from the identical 2D hydrogen-bonded networks, the two polymorphs share phenazine stacks comprising both protonated and neutral phenazine molecules. On the other hand, the polymorphs differ in the conformation, placement and orientation of the hydrogen-bonded trimers and hexamers within the hydrogen-bonded networks, which leads to different packing of the hydrogen-bonded layers, as well as to different hydrogen bonding between the layers. Thus, aside from an exceptional number of symmetry-independent units (nine in total), these two polymorphs show how robust structural motifs, such as charge-assisted hydrogen bonding or π-stacking, allow for different arrangements of the supramolecular units, resulting in polymorphism.Selleckchem Deruxtecan
