Observation of a water-anion layer constructed from water tetramers and nitrate anions in the crystal host of a cobalt complex

A novel self-assembled layer consisting of water tetramers and nitrate anions has been observed in the [Co(1,10-phenanthroline)(2)(NO3)]center dot(NO)(3)center dot 4H(2)O complex. X-ray crystallography and FT-IR spectroscopy indicate that although the water tetramers exist in an energetically less stable uudd configuration, the anionic host environments may play an important role in the formation and stabilization of the water clusters.

Hydrothermal synthesis and structure of a neutral open-framework zincophosphate

A neutral open-frame work zincophosphate has been hydrothermally synthesized: structure refinement shows that it is composed of Zn4O12 tetramers and infinite Zn-O-Zn chains that are linked by PO4 groups forming one-dimensional 16-membered ring channels along b direction.

Isolation and X-ray crystallographic structure of cyclic tetramer based on bisphenol A and o-phthaloyl dichloride

The polycrystalline powder of the cyclic tetramer based on bisphenol A and o-phthaloyldichloride has been prepared by recrystallization from nitrobenzene and its crystal structure has been determined by Wide-Angle X-ray Diffraction (WAXD). The unit cell is orthorhombic and its dimensions a = 0.967 6 nm, b = 0.869 9 nm, c = 2.085 9 nm, Space group belongs to Pmmm, With two tetramers per unit cell,the crystal density is 1.36 g . cm(-3), Indices of crystal diffraction peaks are also detailed in the present work.
