چکیده
A new non-centrosymmetric compound, tris-odium tetra-niobium triarsenic nona-deca-oxide, Na(3)Nb(4)As(3)O(19), has been synthesized by a solid-state reaction at 1123 K. The structure consists of AsO(4) tetra-hedra and NbO(6) octa-hedra sharing corners to form a three-dimensional framework containing two types of tunnels running along the c axis, in which the sodium ions are located. Na(+) cations occupying statistically several sites, respectively, are surrounded by seven, six and four O atoms at distances ranging from 2.08 (1) to 2.88 (4) Å. The title structure is compared with those containing the same groups, viz.M(2)XO(13) and M(2)X(2)O(17) (M = transition metal, and X = As or P).

Centrosymmetric and pseudo-centrosymmetric structures refined as non-centrosymmetric.
The behaviour of the Flack parameter for centrosymmetric and pseudo-centrosymmetric crystal structures based on crystal structures published as being non-centrosymmetric is presented. It is confirmed for centrosymmetric structures that the value obtained for the Flack parameter is critically dependent on the Friedel coverage of the intensity data, approaching 0.5 for a coverage of 100% and stic...
متن کاملThe Centrosymmetric-Noncentrosymmetric Ambiguity: Some More Examples
Four more examples are provided to emphasize the extreme difficulty in deciding, by diffraction methods, whether a crystal structure is centrosymmetric or only approximately so. In these examples, earlier workers described and refined structures in noncentrosymmetric space groups; refinements in the corresponding centrosymmetric space groups, based on the original data, lead to improved results...

The mononuclear complex [Cu(L)(CH3CN)(PPh3)]ClO4, (1), (L= 2,5-diphenyl-3,4-bis(2-pyridyl)cyclopenta-2,4-dien-1-one), has been synthesized and investigated by elemental analysis, IR, 1H NMR, UV-Vis spectroscopic methods and X-ray diffraction. The complex crystallizes in the non-centrosymmetric space group P212121 in accord with the asymmetric (atropisomer) Cu centre. Its coordination polyhedron...
متن کاملS-wave pairing symmetry in non-centrosymmetric superconductor Re3W
The alloys of non-centrosymmetric superconductor, Re3W, which were reported to have an α-Mn structure [P. Greenfield and P. A. Beck, J. Metals, N. Y. 8, 265 (1959)] with Tc = 9 K were prepared by arc melting. The ac susceptibility and low-temperature specific heat were measured on these alloys. It is found that there are two superconducting phases coexisting in the samples with Tc1 ∼ 9 K and Tc...
