    Electronic materials with a wide band gap: Recent developments
    (Chester : International Union of Crystallography, 2014) Klimm, D.
    The development of semiconductor electronics is reviewed briefly, beginning with the development of germanium devices (band gap E g = 0.66 eV) after World War II. A tendency towards alternative materials with wider band gaps quickly became apparent, starting with silicon (E g = 1.12 eV). This improved the signal-to-noise ratio for classical electronic applications. Both semiconductors have a tetrahedral coordination, and by isoelectronic alternative replacement of Ge or Si with carbon or various anions and cations, other semiconductors with wider E g were obtained. These are transparent to visible light and belong to the group of wide band gap semiconductors. Nowadays, some nitrides, especially GaN and AlN, are the most important materials for optical emission in the ultraviolet and blue regions. Oxide crystals, such as ZnO and β-Ga2O3, offer similarly good electronic properties but still suffer from significant difficulties in obtaining stable and technologically adequate p-type conductivity.

    A second polymorph of 3,4-bis­­(6-bromo­pyridin-3-yl)-1,2,5-thia­diazole
    (Chester : International Union of Crystallography, 2016) Becker, Lisanne; Altenburger, Kai; Spannenberg, Anke; Arndt, Perdita; Rosenthal, Uwe
    The title compound, C12H6Br2N4S, a second polymorph in the triclinic space group P-1, is presented. As in the earlier reported monoclinic polymorph in the space group C2/c [Becker et al. (2016[Becker, L., Reiss, F., Altenburger, K., Spannenberg, A., Arndt, P., Jiao, H. & Rosenthal, U. (2016). Chem. Eur. J. In the press. doi: 10.1002/chem.201601337.]). Chem. Eur. J. In the press], the thia­diazole ring is planar with an r.m.s. deviation of 0.004 Å. The five-membered ring is tilted with respect to the two pyridyl substituents by 23.16 (7) and 49.47 (9)°. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by a weak non-bonding Br⋯N inter­action [3.056 (3) Å]. Furthermore, a column of mol­ecules is established along the b axis by π–π stacking inter­actions between the pyridine rings [centroid–centroid distances = 3.7014 (16) and 3.5934 (15) Å]. Additionally, a short inter­molecular Br⋯Br contact [3.3791 (6) Å] and Br⋯π-aryl contacts [3.6815 (11)–3.7659 (12) Å] towards the thia­diazole and pyridine rings are found.

    1,1-Bis(di­phenyl­phosphor­yl)hydrazine
    (Chester : International Union of Crystallography, 2018) Höhne, Martha; Aluri, Bhaskar R.; Spannenberg, Anke; Müller, Bernd H.; Peulecke, Normen; Rosenthal, Uwe
    The title compound, C24H22N2O2P2, contains a diphosphazane backbone, as well as a hydrazine entity. The P—N—P diphosphazane unit and the N-amine N atom are almost coplanar, and the O atoms of the Ph2P(O) units are oriented trans to each other with respect to the P...P axis. In the crystal, centrosymmetrically related mol­ecules are linked into dimers by pairs of N—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming rings of graph-set motif R22(10).

    Methyl 5-chloro-2-hydr-oxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-4,6-dimethylbenzoate
    (Chester : International Union of Crystallography, 2009) Adeel, M.; Ali, I.; Langer, P.; Villinger, A.
    In the title compound, C17H17ClO4, the dihedral angle between the mean planes of the two benzene rings is 65.92 (5)°. The methyl ester group lies within the ring plane [deviations of O atoms from the plane = -0.051 (2) and 0.151 (2) Å] due to an intra-molecular O - H⋯O hydrogen bond. In the crystal, molecules are held together by rather weak non-classical inter-molecular C - H⋯O hydrogen bonds, resulting in dimeric units about inversion centers, forming eight- and ten-membered ring systems as R22(8) and R2 2(10) motifs. © Adeel et al. 2009.

    [1-Dimethylsilyl-2-phenyl-3-(η5-tetramethylcyclopentadienyl) prop-1-en-1-ylκC1](n5-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)- titanium(III)
    (Chester : International Union of Crystallography, 2009) Lamač, M.; Spannenberg, A.; Arndt, P.; Rosenthal, U.
    The title compound, [Ti(C10H15)(C20H 26Si)], was obtained from the reaction of [Ti{5: 1-C5Me4(CH2)}(5-C 5Me5)] with the alkynylsilane PhC2SiMe 2H. The complex crystallizes with two independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit, which differ in the conformation of the propenyl unit, resulting in their having opposite helicity. No inter-molecular inter-actions or inter-actions involving the Si- H bond are present. The observed geometrical parameters are unexceptional compared to known structures of the same type.

    In the crystal structure of the title salt, C2H 8NO+·I-, N-H⋯O, N-H⋯I and O-H⋯I hydrogen bonds lead to the formation of layers staggered along the c axis.

    Redetermination of EuScO3
    (Chester : International Union of Crystallography, 2009) Kahlenberg, V.; Maier, D.; Veličkov, B.
    Single crystals of europium(III) scandate(III), with ideal formula EuScO3, were grown from the melt using the micro-pulling-down method. The title compound crystallizes in an ortho-rhom-bic distorted perovskite-type structure, where Eu occupies the eightfold coordinated A sites (site symmetry m) and Sc resides on the centres of corner-sharing [ScO6] octa-hedra (B sites with site symmetry ). The structure of EuScO3 has been reported previously based on powder diffraction data [Liferovich & Mitchell (2004). J. Solid State Chem. 177, 2188-2197]. The results of the current redetermination based on single-crystal diffraction data shows an improvement in the precision of the structral and geometric parameters and reveals a defect-type structure. Site-occupancy refinements indicate an Eu deficiency on the A site coupled with O defects on one of the two O-atom positions. The crystallochemical formula of the investigated sample may thus be written as A(0.032Eu0.968)BScO2.952.

    In the title complex mol-ecule, [Ti(C10H15) 2I], the paramagnetic Ti(III) atom is coordinated by two penta-methyl-cyclo-penta-dienyl (Cp*) ligands and one iodide ligand. The two Cp*ligands are in a staggered orientation. The coordination geometry at the titanium atom can be described as distorted trigonal-planar.

    The title compound, [Ti(C5H5)2(C 9H11F12NO4P2)], is a four-membered titanacycle obtained from the reaction of Cp2Ti(η 2-Me3SiC2SiMe3) and CH 3N[P(OCH2CF3)2]2 {N,N-bis[bis(trifluoroethoxy)phosphanyl]methylamine, tfepma}. The Ti II atom is coordinated by two cyclopentadienyl (Cp) ligands and the chelating tfepma ligand in a strongly distorted tetrahedral geometry. The molecule is located on a mirror plane.
