چکیده

THE TITLE COMPOUND, SODIUM TETRABORATE DECAHYDRATE (MINERAL NAME: borax), Na(2)[B(4)O(5)(OH)(4)]·8H(2)O, has been studied previously using X-ray [Morimoto (1956). Miner. J.2, 1-18] and neutron [Levy & Lisensky (1978). Acta Cryst. B34, 3502-3510] diffraction data. The structure contains tetra-borate anions [B(4)O(5)(OH)(4)](2-) with twofold rotation symmetry, which form hydrogen-bonded chains, and [Na(H(2)O)(6)] octa-hedra that form zigzag chains [Na(H(2)O)(4/2)(H(2)O)(2/1)]. The O-H bond distances obtained from the present redetermination at 145 K are shorter than those in the neutron study by an average of 0.127 (19) Å.

Redetermination of Bis(ÿ4-1,3-cyclohexadiene)monocarbonyliron

The crystal structure of bis(ÿ-1,3-cyclohexadiene)monocarbonyliron has been redetermined by X-ray data. The compound crystallizes in the enantiomorphic, orthorhombic space group P212121 with one complete molecule in the asymmetric unit. For concordance to the originally reported structure, which was determined under ambient conditions, the redetermination has been carried out at room temperatur...
