The Crystal Structures of Methyl Bromide and Methyl Iodide

Abstract: The crystal structures of methyl bromide and methyl iodide have been determined by the X-ray diffraction method at about −120°C and about −80°C respectively. Both the crystals are isomorphous, with orthorhombic space group D2h16–Pnma. Unit cells containing four molecules have the dimensions: a=4.474(1), b=6.420(2), and c=9.150(1) Å for methyl bromide, and: a=4.597(2), b=6.987(1), and c=10.117(1) Å for methyl iodide. These structures are quite different from that of methyl chloride, which has a symmetry of C2v1… Show more

“…The density of the crystalline CH 3 Br in the (001) plane is 6.96 × 10 14 molecules/cm 2 , as obtained from X-ray studies. 21 Thus, it was concluded that upon completion of the first layer the density reaches 52 ( 5% and 58 ( 5%, respectively, of it's value in the bulk. We note that our interpretation of a monolayer is different from other studies [2][3][4]7 for which the definition of 1ML is correlated with a definition of a bilayer (2ML) in the present study.…”

“…Carbon atoms C1 and C2 show a slightly distorted tetrahedral coordination due to the different size of the surrounding atoms. The C-Br bond lengths of 1.938(4) and 1.924(4) Å, respectively, are in the region of C-Br bond lengths observed for methyl bromide [1.86(4) Å] [16] and dibromomethane (1.91 Å). [17] The C-F bond lengths of 1.377(4) and 1.356(4) Å, respectively, are in the region typical of C-F single bonds.…”

“…29,30 It turns out that on the copper-covered surface destabilization of the third layer is not observed. On the basis of the work function change spectrum during adsorption, we conclude that on the Cu(2 ML)/Ru(001) surface, CH 3 Br molecules cannot form a structure according to the molecular crystalline antiparallel arrangement 34 as well as on the clean Ru(001) surface. This may be related to the fact that on this surface there are more defects, and as a result, molecules adsorb in a distribution of tilt angles with respect to the normal to the surface.…”
