The crystal and molecular structure of benzylidenimine trisulfide has been determined. Crystals are orthorhombic with a = 16.610(2), b = 9.984(6), c = 4.386(4), Z = 2 and space group P2,2,2. 773 unique reflections of positive measured intensity, recorded with a Syntex P i Automatic Diffractometer, were refined by full-matrix least-square methods to a conventional R value of 0.023. The molecule has a crystallographic two-fold axis and S-S bond lengths of 2.051(1) A. These are intermediate in length between the long inner and short outer S-S bonds of the chemically analogous tetrasulfide. The S-N and N-C bond lengths are 1.661(3) and 1.269(3), respectively. The crystal packing is determined by S-S van der Waals interaction between adjacent molecules along the c axis.
Abstract. AgCNO, orthorhombic, Cmcm, a Single-crystal diffractometer data have been collected to sin 0/2 = 0.705/~-~; the structure has been refined to R = 0.021 for 206 observed independent reflections.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
