TL;DR: The redetermined structure of 1,3,5-trinitro-1,3-5-triazacyclohexane, C3H6N6O6, at 90 (2) K has orthorhombic (Pbca) symmetry and is of interest with respect to energetic compounds.
Abstract: The redetermined structure of 1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triaza­cyclo­hexane, C3H6N6O6, at 90 (2) K has ortho­rhom­bic (Pbca) symmetry. It is of inter­est with respect to energetic compounds. The structure was originally investigated through X-ray diffraction by Hultgren [(1936). J. Chem. Phys. 4, 84]. Later X-ray investigations were completed by McCrone [(1950). Anal. Chem. 22, 954–955] and Harris, Reed & Gluyas [(1959). AFOSR-TR-59-165 Ohio State University Research Foundation, Columbus, Ohio, USA]. A single-crystal neutron diffraction study was performed by Choi & Prince [(1972). Acta Cryst. B28, 2857–2862] to ascertain the H-atom positions, which had not been defined by the earlier X-ray diffraction studies. All previous studies were performed at or near room temperature. The structure provided is the α polymorph of the title compound. The ring atoms are arranged in the chair conformation with two nitro groups occupying pseudo-equatorial positions and the remaining nitro group is axial. The crystal packing is stabilized by close intramolecular interactions from one H atom in each methylene group to O atoms of adjacent nitro groups, ranging from 2.251 to 2.593 A.

TL;DR: Site-occupancy refinements based on diffraction data support the idea of a Tb deficiency on the A site (inducing O defects on the O2 position) and the crystallochemical formula of the investigated sample thus may be written as A(□0.04Tb0.96)BScO2.
Abstract: The crystal structure of terbium(III) scandate(III), with ideal formula TbScO(3), has been reported previously on the basis of powder diffraction data [Liferovich & Mitchell (2004 ▶). J. Solid State Chem.177, 2188-2197]. The current data were obtained from single crystals grown by the Czochralski method and show an improvement in the precision of the geometric parameters. Moreover, inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry studies resulted in a nonstoichiometric composition of the title compound. Site-occupancy refinements based on diffraction data support the idea of a Tb deficiency on the A site (inducing O defects on the O2 position). The crystallochemical formula of the investigated sample thus may be written as (A)(□(0.04)Tb(0.96))(B)ScO(2.94). In the title compound, Tb occupies the eightfold-coordinated sites (site symmetry m) and Sc the centres of corner-sharing [ScO(6)] octa-hedra (site symmetry ). The mean bond lengths and site distortions fit well into the data of the remaining lanthanoid scandates in the series from DyScO(3) to NdScO(3). A linear structural evolution with the size of the lanthanoid from DyScO(3) to NdScO(3) can be predicted.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the coordination geometry of ZnCl2(C18H18N2O) and Zwitterionic Schiff bases in a tetrahedral coordination geometry.
Abstract: In the mononuclear complex mol­ecule of the title compond, [ZnCl2(C18H18N2O)2]·2C18H18N2O, the Zn atom, which lies on a twofold rotation axis, is coordinated by phenolate O atoms in a tetra­hedral coordination geometry. The coordinated Schiff base uses its indole NH donor site to form a hydrogen bond to the negatively charged phenolate O atom of the uncoordinated zwitterionic Schiff base. There is an intra­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bond in the coordinated and uncoordinated Schiff bases. The indole NH site of the uncoordinated Schiff base does not engage in a hydrogen-bond inter­action. The CH2—CH2 group in the uncoordinated Schiff base is disordered equally over two positions.

TL;DR: The title compound, C18H13ClO3, has an intramolecular O—H⋯O=C hydrogen bond between the carbonyl group and the hydroxy substituent on the naphthalene ring system.
Abstract: The title compound, C18H13ClO3, has an intra­molecular O—H⋯O=C hydrogen bond between the carbonyl group and the hydr­oxy substituent on the naphthalene ring system. The angle between the C=O bond plane and the naphthalene ring system is relatively small [20.96 (8)°]. The angle between the benzene ring and the carbonyl group is rather large [35.65 (9)°] compared to that in an analogous compound [3.43 (11)°] having a meth­oxy group instead of a hydroxy substituent.

Abstract: In the title coordination polymer, [CdI2(C12H12N2)]n, the Cd2+ ion lies on a twofold rotation axis: it is six-coordinated in a distorted cis-CdN2I4 octa­hedral geometry by two N atoms from a chelating 5,5′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine ligands and four bridging iodide anions. The bridging function of the iodide ions leads to a chain structure propagating in [001].
