Descripción: The title complex, aqua(2,2′-bipyridy-N,N′(3-thiapentanedioate-O,S,O′)zinc(II) tetrahydrate, [Zn(C4H4-O4S)(C10H8N 2)(H2O)].4H2O, is mononuclear with a coordination sphere consisting of one S, two N and three O atoms. The Zn atom is linked to a tridentate thiodiacetate ligand, a bidentate 2,2′-bipyridine ligand and an aqua ligand resulting in a slightly distorted octahedral coordination geometry. The molecular units are linked together in the crystal by an extensive hydrogen-bonding network and by intermolecular S⋯S interactions.

Descripción: A comprehensive study of nonstoichiometry titanium oxide thin films (TiO x , 0.3≤x≤2) prepared by ion beam deposition technique is reported. The physical properties of the material are studied by ultraviolet and x-ray photoelectron, Raman, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopies, and atomic force microscopy. An abrupt transition from metallic characteristics to a wide gap semiconductor is observed in a very narrow range of oxygen variation. Concomitantly with this change the crystal structure and morphology suffer remarkable physical properties modifications. This transformation is ascribed to surface-volume energy minimization due to the influence of oxygen determining the size of the TiO 2 particles during coalescence. © 2010 American Institute of Physics.

Descripción: The title compound, N-[2-(5-methoxy-1-nitroso-1H-indol-3-yl)ethyl]acetamide, C13H15N3O3, an N-nitroso derivative of melatonin, crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. The molecules are arranged in such a way that the aromatic rings are in a planar conformation, with the alkylamide side chains in a different plane, at a dihedral angle of 108.60 (6)°. The alkylamide chains are interconnected by hydrogen bonds, constituting an infinite array.

Descripción: The title compounds, tetraphenylphosphonium chlorobis(diethyldithiocarbamato-S,S)cadmium(II), (C24H20P)-[CdCl(C5H10NS 2)2], (1), and tetraphenylphosphonium bromobis(diethyldithiocarbamato-S,S)cadmium(II), (C24-H20P)[CdBr(C5H10NS 2)2], (2), are isomorphous. The compexes are mononuclear with coordination spheres of the types S4Cl and S4Br, respectively. The central Cd atom is linked to four S atoms and two bidentate dithiocarbamate ligands and to the halide atom. The resulting Cd-atom coordination geometry is halfway between trigonal bipyrimidal and square pyramidal. Principal dimensions include: Cd-S 2.573 (1)-2.682 (1) in (1) and 2.571 (3)-2.736 (2) Å in (2); Cd-Cl and Cd-Br 2.462 (1) and 2.626 (1) Å, respectively.
