Download or read book Single Crystal Neutron Diffraction From Molecular Materials written by Chick C Wilson and published by World Scientific Publishing Company. This book was released on 2000-02-18 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important book presents a comprehensive account of the techniques and applications of single crystal neutron diffraction in the area of chemical crystallography and molecular structure. Beginning with a brief description of the general principles and the reasons for choosing the technique — the “why” — the book covers the methods for both the production of neutrons and the measurement of their scattering by molecular crystals — the “how” — followed by a detailed survey of past, present and future applications — the “what”. The coverage of both steady state and pulsed neutron sources and instrumentation is extensive, while the survey of applications is the most comprehensive yet undertaken. The book endeavours to show why the technique is an essential method for studying areas as diverse as hydrogen bonding and weak interactions, organometallics, supramolecular chemistry and crystal engineering, metal hydrides, charge density and pharmaceuticals. It is an ideal reference source for the research worker interested in using neutron diffraction to study the structure of molecules.

Book Zeolites

Download or read book Zeolites written by B. Držaj and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2011-09-22 with total page 707 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The synthesis of zeolites with desired structure and properties is of great importance for the preparation of highly active and selective catalysts for inorganic and organic reactions. The zeolite matrix offers unique possibilities for carrying out molecular shape-selective catalysis and this places the zeolite matrices among the most successful tools used in molecular engineering on a large scale.These proceedings cover the most recent developments in the fields of synthesis, structure determination and technological use of zeolites. The papers give detailed explanations of the processes involved in the mechanisms of zeolite synthesis. Special attention is focussed on complex ionic equilibria which occur in the starting hydrogel, to the ``templating effect'' and to the kinetics of zeolite formation. New powerful methods for structure determination of these materials, which usually consist of small crystals, are presented e.g. neutron diffraction and X-ray diffraction using synchrotron radiation. The distribution of tetrahedrally coordinated framework-constituent elements and their interaction with adsorbates is revealed by using high magnetic field nuclear magnetic resonance with sample spinning at ``magic'' angle (MAS NMR).Quite a number of articles are devoted to the dependence of the physico-chemical properties of zeolites on the parameters set during their synthesis. Descriptions are given of the possible technological use of synthetic zeolites in the fields of adsorption, catalysis, the production of laundry detergents, the removal of radioactive wastes, and the technological use of natural zeolites in the fields of animal feeding, municipal water treatment, paper and cement production, and energy storage. This book will be of interest to scientists working in the fields of catalysis, surface science, inorganic chemistry, materials science, petrochemistry, solid state physics, crystallography and geology.

Book Towards High Throughput Single Crystal Neutron Diffraction of Hydrogen Bonded Molecular Complexes

Download or read book Towards High Throughput Single Crystal Neutron Diffraction of Hydrogen Bonded Molecular Complexes written by Andrew Jones and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work presents findings from experiments carried out using the neutron Laue method in tandem with laboratory source X-ray diffraction to characterise a series of organic molecular complexes which exhibit interesting, and potentially "tunable", temperature dependent charge transfer effects, such as proton migration and proton disorder within hydrogen bonded networks. These subtle processes are studied by variable temperature neutron diffraction studies, allowing the positional and anisotropic displacement parameters of the hydrogen atoms to be refined accurately and their evolution with temperature followed. The hydrogen atom behaviour is found to be influenced by the local environment, including weak intermolecular interactions in the vicinity of the hydrogen bond under study. Complexes of urea and methyl substituted ureas with small organic acids are presented, which show robust and reproducible structural motifs. In favourable circumstances, these contain short, strong hydrogen bonds (SSHBs) within which the proton may undergo temperature dependent migration. By synthesising a number of complexes containing SSHBs, potential routes to the design of proton migration complexes are found, which utilise crystal engineering principles and pKa matching. Variable temperature studies conducted on these complexes also show unusual thermal expansion properties and phase transitions in urea-acid complexes which do not display proton migration. Systems containing hydrogen bonded dimers of 3,5-dinitrobenzoic acid are also studied, and shown to contain temperature proton disorder within moderate strength hydrogen bonds linking the dimers. The presence and potential onset temperature of any disorder is found to be influenced by interactions around the acid dimers and potential routes to controlling proton disorder are discussed. Complexes of the proton sponge, 1,8-bis(dimethylamino)napthalene (DMAN), with organic acids are also presented, in which the structures have been determined using neutron diffraction. DMAN readily accepts a proton from the acid co-molecules used in forming the complexes, forming a strong intramolecular SSHB within the protonated DMAN. Strong intermolecular hydrogen bonds are also induced between the acid molecules in many cases. The neutron studies presented here investigate the effect of weak interactions on the behaviour of hydrogen atoms located within these SSHBs, and also indicate over what distance such interactions significantly affect the hydrogen atom behaviour.

Book Neutron Scattering in Earth Sciences

Download or read book Neutron Scattering in Earth Sciences written by Hans Rudolf Wenk and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2018-12-17 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 63 of Reviews in Mineralogy and Geochemistry provides an introduction for those not yet familiar with neutrons by describing basic features of neutrons and their interaction with matter as well illustrating important applications. The volume is divided into 17 Chapters. The first two chapters introduce properties of neutrons and neutron facilities, setting the stage for applications. Some applications rely on single crystals (Chapter 3) but mostly powders (Chapters 4-5) and bulk polycrystals (Chapters 15-16) are analyzed, at ambient conditions as well as low and high temperature and high pressure (Chapters 7-9). Characterization of magnetic structures remains a core application of neutron scattering (Chapter 6). The analysis of neutron data is not trivial and crystallographic methods have been modified to take account of the complexities, such as the Rietveld technique (Chapter 4) and the pair distribution function (Chapter 11). Information is not only obtained about solids but about liquids, melts and aqueous solutions as well (Chapters 11-13). In fact this field, approached with inelastic scattering (Chapter 10) and small angle scattering (Chapter 13) is opening unprecedented opportunities for earth sciences. Small angle scattering also contributes information about microstructures (Chapter 14). Neutron diffraction has become a favorite method to quantify residual stresses in deformed materials (Chapter 16) as well as preferred orientation patterns (Chapter 15). The volume concludes with a short introduction into neutron tomography and radiography that may well emerge as a principal application of neutron scattering in the future (Chapter 17).

Download or read book Advanced Mineralogy written by A. S. Marfunin and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 570 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All existing introductory reviews of mineralogy are written accord ing to the same algorithm, sometimes called the "Dana System of Mineralogy". Even modern advanced handbooks, which are cer tainly necessary, include basic data on minerals and are essentially descriptive. When basic information on the chemistry, structure, optical and physical properties, distinguished features and para genesis of 200-400 minerals is presented, then there is practically no further space available to include new ideas and concepts based on recent mineral studies. A possible solution to this dilemma would be to present a book beginning where introductory textbooks end for those already famil iar with the elementary concepts. Such a volume would be tailored to specialists in all fields of science and industry, interested in the most recent results in mineralogy. This approach may be called Advanced Mineralogy. Here, an attempt has been made to survey the current possibilities and aims in mineral matter investigations, including the main characteristics of all the methods, the most important problems and topics of mineral ogy, and related studies. The individual volumes are composed of short, condensed chap ters. Each chapter presents in a complete, albeit condensed, form specific problems, methods, theories, and directions of investigations, and estimates their importance and strategic position in science and industry.

Book Spectroscopic and Computational Studies of Supramolecular Systems

Download or read book Spectroscopic and Computational Studies of Supramolecular Systems written by J.E. Davies and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physical techniques such as X-ray crystallography, IR spectroscopy and solution-phase NMR spectroscopy have played key roles in the development of supramolecular chemistry. In recent years other spectroscopic techniques have been applied, expanding the range of information obtainable. The most widely used technique is solid-state NMR spectroscopy but techniques such as neutron scattering and NQR spectroscopy can yield significant information. Computational approaches are now becoming powerful complementary methods to experimental techniques and this book reviews the application of these methods to supramolecular systems. The ten chapters provide up-to-date information on the applications of spectroscopic and computational techniques to a wide range of supramolecular systems: Solid State NMR Studies of Host-Guest Materials Infrared Studies of Zeolite Complexes NQR Studies of Inclusion Compounds Neutron Scattering Studies of Zeolite Complexes Solid State NMR Studies of Catalytic Reactions on Molecular Sieves Recent Advances in Computational Studies of Zeolites Theoretical Studies of Cyclodextrins and their Inclusion Complexes Computer Modelling of the Structures of Host-Guest Complexes Computational Studies of Clathrate Hydrates Ab initio Electronic Structure Calculations on Endohedral Complexes of the C60 Cluster. This timely book will prove to be of great value to supramolecular researchers who are familiar with the spectroscopic techniques but who wish to extend their knowledge of the computational methods (and vice versa), to supramolecular researchers working in allied areas whose work would benefit from applying spectroscopic and computational methods, and finally to workers just entering the fascinating area of supramolecular chemistry.
