It is illustrated by the treatment of experimental data obtained for yttrium orthoferrite YFeO₃ films on single crystalline sapphire (Al₂O₃) substrates for film thicknesses in the range from 100 to 7000 Å. Precise determination of unit-cell constants and angles is possible by combining the results of X-ray measurements made in the in-plane and out-of-plane geometries. The unit-cell unit parameters and orientation relationships for thin films were determined. For the studied films, typical errors in determining unit-cell parameters and angles are better than 0.17 Å and 0.17°, respectively.","PeriodicalId":501081,"journal":{"name":"Acta Crystallographica Section B","volume":"24 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141969155","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An in-depth analysis is given of the crystal packing of two previously reported crystal structures of dihalogenated 1,2,4-triazole derivatives, namely 3,5-dichloro-1<i>H</i>-1,2,4-triazole and 3,5-dibromo-1<i>H</i>-1,2,4-triazole. This work provides insights into the complex interplay of hydrogen-bonding and halogen-bonding interactions resulting in the formation of multiple trimeric motifs in the crystal structure of 1,2,4-triazole derivatives. Analysis of the crystal packing of these isostructural crystal structures revealed that the molecular arrangement in these molecules is primarily stabilized by the formation of different trimeric motifs stabilized by N—H…N hydrogen bonds, N—H…<i>X</i> (<i>X</i> = Cl/Br) halogen bonds and C—<i>X</i>…<i>X</i> halogen-bonding interactions. Computational studies further revealed that all these trimers are energetically stable. A crystallographic database search further reveals that while the cyclic trimers reported in this study are present in other molecules, structures analyzed in this study are the sole instances where all are present simultaneously.","PeriodicalId":501081,"journal":{"name":"Acta Crystallographica Section B","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140808832","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This fact allows one to consider experimentally obtained helices as periodic approximants of helices from the four-dimensional {3,3,5} polytope and its derivative constructions. For the tetrahedral Coxeter–Boerdijk helix (tetrahelix) with a 30/11 axis from the {3,3,5} polytope, approximants with 11/4 and 8/3 axes in three-dimensional Euclidean space <img alt=\"{bb E}^{3}\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"/cms/asset/56d0b94f-3725-4a26-b725-dee021acf6a4/ayb2yh5028-gra-0001.png\"/> are considered. These determine the structure of rods composed of deformed tetrahedra in close-packed crystals of α-Mn and β-Mn. In the {3,3,5} polytope, highlighted here for the first time, is a 40-vertex helix with a 20/9 axis composed of seven-vertex quadruples of tetrahedra (tetrablocks), whose 7/3 approximants determine in a crystal of an α-Mn rod of deformed tetrablocks with the same period as the 11/4 approximant of the tetrahelix. In the spaces of the three-dimensional sphere and <img alt=\"{bb E}^{3}\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"/cms/asset/56d0b94f-3725-4a26-b725-dee021acf6a4/ayb2yh5028-gra-0001.png\"/>, the parameters of 20/9, 40/9 and 40/11 helices, as well as of their 20- and 40-vertex approximants, are calculated. The parameters of the approximant of the 40/11 helix in <img alt=\"{bb E}^{3}\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"/cms/asset/56d0b94f-3725-4a26-b725-dee021acf6a4/ayb2yh5028-gra-0001.png\"/> correspond to experimentally determined parameters of the α-helix, which allows us to explain the versatility of the α-helix in proteins by the symmetry of the polytope. The set of fractional axes of all periodic approximants of helices with 30/11, 20/9, 40/9, 40/11 axes, as well as the powers of these axes, are combined into a tetrahedral-polytope class of 50 basic axes. The basic axes as well as composite (defined as a combination of basic ones) fractional axes of this class cover all fractional axes known to us according to literature data for polymers, biopolymers and close-packed metals.","PeriodicalId":501081,"journal":{"name":"Acta Crystallographica Section B","volume":" 122","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138494506","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
