Complementary experimental techniques and ab initio calculations were used to determine the origin nature of negative thermal expansion (NTE) in archetype metal-organic framework MOF-5 (Zn(4)O(1,4-benzenedicarboxylate)(3)). The organic linker was probed by inelastic neutron scattering under vacuum at a gas pressure 175 bar distinguish between temperature responses motions, local structure metal centers studied X-ray absorption spectroscopy. Multi-temperature powder- single-crystal...

A breakthrough in the study of single-molecule magnets occurred with discovery zero-field slow magnetic relaxation and hysteresis for linear iron(I) complex [Fe(C(SiMe3)3)2]− (1), which has one largest spin-reversal barriers among mononuclear transition-metal magnets. Theoretical studies have suggested that anisotropy 1 is made possible by pronounced stabilization iron dz2 orbital due to 3dz2–4s mixing, an effect predicted be less neutral iron(II) Fe(C(SiMe3)3)2 (2). However, experimental...

A combined experimental and theoretical electron density study of the shortest trichromium metal wire, Cr3(dpa)4Cl2·(C2H5OC2H5)(x)(CH2Cl2)(1-x) (1, dpa = bis(2-pyridyl)amido), is reported. High resolution X-ray diffraction data has been collected both at 100 K using a conventional source (DS1) 15 synchrotron (DS2). The linear chromium string terminated by Cl(-) ions ends, each Cr atom also coordinated four N atoms from bridging ligands. two Cr-Cr bond distances are unequal (with d(Cr1-Cr2)...

The energy landscape and its evolution with pressure have been studied for two hydroquinone clathrates in combination the apohost β-hydroquinone structure. Pressure is used as a means probing interatomic, or intermolecular, potentials. forces organic are generally dominated by strong intermolecular interactions host framework, smaller contributions from subtle between guest molecules surrounding framework. Pairwise energies quantified hydroquinone–methanol hydroquinone–acetonitrile clathrate...

Abstract The energy landscape governing a new pressure‐induced phase transition in the hydroquinone–formic acid clathrate is reported which host structure collapses, opening up cavity channels within guest molecules migrate and order. reversible isosymmetric causes significant changes morphology birefringence of crystal. subtle intermolecular interaction energies are quantified at varying pressures using novel model frameworks. These calculations show that high‐pressure forms more stable...

Melamine is a precursor and building block for graphitic carbon nitride (g-CN) materials, group of layered materials showing great promise catalytic applications. The synthetic pathway to g-CN includes polycondensation reaction melamine by evaporation ammonia. molecules in the crystal organize into wave-like planes with an interlayer distance 3.3 Å similar that g-CN. Here we present extensive investigation experimental electron density obtained from modelling synchrotron radiation X-ray...

Single crystal X-ray diffraction studies of the symmetrical molecular wire compound Co3(dpa)4Cl2·(dcm) have been performed up to a pressure 3.6 GPa using both synchrotron and conventional sources. It is found that terminal Co-Cl bond distance initially increases by 0.013(4) Å at 0.32 after which it continuously decreases. Extensive theoretical calculations show population thermally excited state containing increased anti-bonding character possibility GPa. The relative occupancy disordered...

Abstract The present study shows that a successful description of the electron density in Ga‐containing compound using multipole model requires separation and independent radial scaling three Ga core shells. It is also shown two similar compounds only differing oxidation state atom provides residual maps thus deficiencies standard are very cases. Nevertheless, we find fundamentally different modified models. found introduction parameters modelling experimental data has no significant impact....
