The title compounds, [FeCl₂(C₁₅H₂₀N₂)₄], (I), [FeBr₂(C₁₅H₂₀N₂)₄], (II), and [FeBr₂(C₁₅H₂₀N₂)₄]·2C₄H₁₀O, (IIb), respectively, all have triclinic symmetry, with (I) and (II) being isotypic. The FeII atoms in each of the structures are located on an inversion center. They have octa­hedral FeX₂N₄ (X = Cl and Br,...

Growth of ice nanoparticles via uptake of individual molecules: pickup cross sections

Fedor, Juraj ; Lengyel, Jozef ; Kočišek, J. ; Poterya, V. ; Pysanenko, A. ; Svrčková, P. ; Fárník, M.

In: Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2014, vol. 488, no. 10, p. 102016

We present cross sections for pickup of several atmospherically relevant molecules on ice nanoparticles with the 0.5-3 nm diameter range. The experimental values are supported by molecular dynamics simulations and analytical calculations based on long-range cluster-molecule potentials. The cross sections are all considerably larger than the geometrical cross section of nanoparticle and vary...

Ab-initio crystal structure analysis and refinement approaches of oligo p-benzamides based on electron diffraction data

Gorelik, Tatiana E. ; Streek, Jacco van de ; Kilbinger, Andreas F. M. ; Brunklaus, Gunther ; Kolb, Ute

In: Acta Crystallographica Section B, 2012, vol. 68, no. 2, p. 171-181

Ab-initio crystal structure analysis of organic materials from electron diffraction data is presented. The data were collected using the automated electron diffraction tomography (ADT) technique. The structure solution and refinement route is first validated on the basis of the known crystal structure of tri-p-benzamide. The same procedure is then applied to solve the previously unknown crystal...

On the coordination behaviour of NO₃⁻ in coordination compounds with Ag⁺Part 1. Solubility effect on the formation of coordination polymer networks between AgNO₃ and L(L= ethanediyl bis(isonicotinate) as a function of solvent

Robin, Adeline Y. ; Sagué, Jorge L. ; Fromm, Katharina M.

In: CrystEngComm, 2006, vol. 8, p. 403-416

The influence of the solubility of AgNO₃ in three solvent systems is studied for the reaction between AgNO₃ and the ligand L(= ethanediyl bis(isonicotinate)). Three solid state structures are obtained, differing in the relative ratio Ag : L in the first case, and in polymorphism in the second. The Ag–O(NO₃⁻) distance correlates strongly with the solubility of AgNO₃ in...
