چکیده

How short can a C-C single bond get? The bonding in a set of molecules that are related structurally to previously synthesized or theoretically examined systems with short C-C bonds is investigated. According to calculations, a single C-C bond could be compressed to 1.313 Å! To the best of our knowledge, this is the shortest single C-C bond reported to date. This shortening is a consequence of a change in the C-C-C bond angle, θ, to minimize strain in the cages and an effort to offset the tension in the surrounding bridges.

Structural Mechanics Approach to Investigate the Hyperelastic Mechanical Behavior of Single and Multi-wall Carbon Nanotubes

In the current research, a three-dimensional finite element model was considered to predict the mechanical behavior of Single Wall (SWCNTs) and Multi Wall Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNTs). Assuming the nonlinear elastic behavior of C-C bond in large strains, hyperelastic models were considered. Literature review revealed that the material parameters of the hyperelastic models have been determined from...

2,6-Bis(4-meth­oxy­phen­yl)-1,4-dithiine

The title mol-ecule, C18H16O2S2, reveals crystallographic twofold rotation symmetry (with both S atoms lying on the axis) and one half-mol-ecule defines an asymmetric unit. The dithiine ring is in a boat conformation. The aromatic ring and the C=C bond are nearly coplanar, with small torsion angles of -171.26 (19) and 8.5 (3)°. The two S-C bond lengths [1.7391 (19) and 1.7795 (18) Å] are shorte...

Redetermination of Crystal Structure of N,N'-bis (2-Hydroxybenzylidene)-2,2-Dimethyl-1,3-Propanediamine

The structure of N,N'-bis(2-hydroxybenzylidene)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-propanediamine, C19H22N2O2, has been studied at low temperature (120K) by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Solving the structure shows an orthorhombic unit cell, with P212121 space group, Z = 4, a = 6.1046 (4) Å, b = 15.8349 (11)</e...

Carbonyl­chlorido(1-methyl­sulfanylpenta-1,3-dien-1-yl-5-yl­idene)bis­(triphenyl­phosphane)osmium(II)

The crystal structure of the title compound, [Os(C(6)H(7)S)Cl(C(18)H(15)P)(2)(CO)], confirms the formulation as an osmabenzene. There is a slightly distorted octa-hedral coordination environment at the Os(II) ion, with the triphenyl-phosphane ligands mutually trans and the chloride cis to the carbon bearing the -SMe substituent. Within the metallacyclic ring, the C-C distances are appropriate f...

Pseudo-Five-Component Condensation for the Diversity-Oriented Synthesis of Novel Indoles and Quinolines Containing Pseudo-Peptides (Tricarboxamides)

A novel series of indole and quinoline tricarboxamides were synthesized using simple and efficient one-pot pseudo-five-component reactions of 2-formylindole or 2-chloro-3-formyl quinolines, isocyanides, amines, and Meldrum’s acid as a CH-acid in CH2Cl2 at room temperature. This conversion has been achieved via the construction of new bonds including two C-C bonds, two ...
