A new monoclinic polymorph of the title compound, C(8)H(12)N(4), in the space group P2(1)/n (Z = 4) is reported. The previously known form was also monoclinic, P2(1)/c (Z = 4), but the unit-cell parameters and crystal packing were different [Shoja & Saba (1993 ▶). Acta Cryst. C49, 354-355]. The hexa-hydro-pyrimidine ring of the title compound adopts a chair conformation with a diequatorial subs...

The title compound, C(26)H(30)N(4), was prepared by condensation of tetra-methyl-pyrazine and dimethyl-amino-benzaldehyde and crystallizes from chloro-form/methanol in two different forms. Block-shaped crystals belong to the monoclinic crystal system and plates to the triclinic system. The two crystal forms differ in the arrangement of the centrosymmetric mol-ecules, which have nearly identical...

The title compound, C(16)H(14)F(3)N(3)OS·H(2)O, which had been previously characterized in the space group P-1 [Ren et al. (2011 ▶). Acta Cryst. E67, o270], has now been crystallized from 1-propanol in the monoclinic form in the space group P2(1)/c. While the triclinic form is a Z' = 2 crystal, the new monoclinic polymorph includes one main mol-ecule and one water lattice mol-ecule in the asymm...

The head-tail connector of bacteriophage phi29, an oligomer of gene product 10 (gp10), was crystallized into various forms. The most useful of these were an orthorhombic P22(1)2(1) form (unit-cell parameters a = 143.0, b = 157.0, c = 245.2 A), a monoclinic C2 form (a = 160.7, b = 143.6, c = 221.0 A, beta = 97.8 degrees ) and another monoclinic C2 form (a = 177.0, b = 169.1, c = 185.2 A, beta = ...

The crystal and molecular structures of [bis(5-chloro-2methoxybenzoate)tetraaquamanganese(II)], [pentaaqua(5-chloro-2-methoxybenzoato)cobalt(II)] (5chloro-2-methoxybenzoate), [pentaaqua(5-chloro-2-methoxybenzoato)nickel(II)] (5-chloro-2methoxybenzoate) and [aquabis(5-chloro-2-methoxybenzoate)zinc(II)] monohydrate were determined by a single-crystal X-ray analysis. Mn(H2O)4L2 (where L = C8H6ClO3...

Monocrystalline cubic and/or monoclinic Y2O3:Eu nanoparticles (10-50 nm) were synthesized continuously without post-processing by single-step flame spray pyrolysis (FSP). These particles were characterized by Xray diffraction (XRD), nitrogen adsorption (BET) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Photoluminescence (PL) emission was measured as well as the time-resolved PL-intensity decay. ...

Rare-earth tantalates, with high density and monoclinic structure, and niobates with monoclinic structure have been paid great attention as potential optical materials. In the last decade, we focused on the crystal growth technology of rare-earth tantalates and niobates and studied their luminescence and physical properties. A series of rare-earth tantalates and niobates crystals have been grow...

Using optical, TEM, and ultrafast electron diffraction experiments we find that single crystal VO(2) microbeams gently placed on insulating substrates or metal grids exhibit different behaviors, with structural and metal-insulator transitions occurring at the same temperature for insulating substrates, while for metal substrates a new monoclinic metal phase lies between the insulating monoclini...
