The crystal structure of the DNA decamer C-G-A-T-C-G-A-T-C-G has been solved to a resolution of 1.5 A, with a final R-factor of 16.1% for 5,107 two-sigma reflections. Crystals are orthorhombic space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with cell dimensions a = 38.93 A, b = 39.63 A, c = 33.30 A, and 10 base pairs/asymmetric unit. The final structure contains 404 DNA atoms, 142 water molecules treated as oxygen ...

We present a computer simulation study on the crystalline phases of hard ellipsoids of revolution. For aspect ratios >or=3 the previously suggested stretched-fcc phase [Frenkel and Mulder, Mol. Phys. 55, 1171 (1985)] is replaced by a different crystalline phase. Its unit cell contains two ellipsoids with unequal orientations. The lattice is simple monoclinic. The angle of inclination of the lat...

The structure of pyridin-4-ylmethyl 4-nitrobenzoate was determined by the single-crystal X-ray diffraction method. compound crystallized in a monoclinic system, P21/n, and unit cell parameters are, = 9.981(2), b 12.347(3), c 10.161(3)Å, β 101.450(9), Z 4, V 1227.3(5)Å3. crystal solved intrinsic phasing refined to final values R1 0.0451 wR2 0.1393.

Wadsleyite (β-(Mg,Fe)2SiO4) is known to accept variable amounts of H, and may be an important reservoir of H in the transition zone of the mantle. The crystal structure of Fo94.6 hydrous wadsleyite (Mg1.730Fe0.098 Al0.008Si0.991H0.355O4) synthesized at 1400 oC and 17GPa has been refined in space group I2/m from 1784 measured intensities of which 830 were unique, and of these, 650 were of intens...

In an attempt to grow 8-hy-droxy-quinoline-acetamino-phen co-crystals from equimolar amounts of conformers in a chloro-form-ethanol solvent mixture at room temperature, the title compound, C9H7NO, was obtained. The mol-ecule is planar, with the hy-droxy H atom forming an intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bond. In the crystal, mol-ecules form centrosymmetric dimers via two O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds. Thu...

the reactions of pb(c10 ) , and pb(scn) with meso-5,7,7,12,14,14-hexamethyl- 1,4,8,ll ,tetra-azacyclotetradecane (c ,h ,n = l) yielded colorless crystals of lpb(ci o ) (1) and lpb(ncs) (2), respectively. their structures were determined by x-ray crystallography. crystal data: 1 monoclinic, p 2 /c, a =11.293 (4) ?, b = 16.382 (6) ? , c = 21.518(4) ?, ? = 92.14(2)?, z = 4, moka, 1824 observed (1>...

in this study, a feasible green method for the synthesis of copper oxide nanocrystalline is described by using sour cherry juice which has a significant effect on crystalline size, and morphology. the benefits of the green method, not only nanometer scale are formed but also low-cost method are obtained in a normal atmosphere which it has been used (ch3coo)2cu.h2o individually as cu sources. al...

Orthorhombic paracetamol (form II) can be obtained from ethanolic solution when seeding technique is applied although it converts to monoclinic (form I) upon contact with the solvent. In the present work different cooling temperature T(C) (-20, -10 and 0 degrees C) was applied under fixed agitation (700 rpm) and the crystalline product was harvested after different crystallization time t(H) (20...

Eu(3+)-doped mixed rare earth orthophosphates (rare earth = La, Y, Gd) have been prepared by hydrothermal technology, whose crystal phase and microstructure both vary with the molar ratio of the mixed rare earth ions. For La(x)Y(1-x)PO(4): Eu(3+), the ion radius distinction between the La(3+) and Y(3+) is so large that only La(0.9)Y(0.1)PO(4): Eu(3+) shows the pure monoclinic phase. For La(x)Gd...
