Crystals molecular

The response of liquid crystal molecular orientation to an electric field is another major characteristic utilised for many years in industrial applications [44] and more recently in studies of electrically-induced phase transitions [45]. The ability of the director to align along an external field again results from the electronic structure of the individual molecules.

The importance of high density as a feature of potential fuel systems that seek to maximize net volumetric heat of combustion is well documented. The prediction of the crystal density of an unknown compound typically has been approached through the use of volume additivity procedures [29-32]. Here, the crystal-molecular volume ycm) is calculated by summing appropriate crystal-atomic or group volumes Vca Vcm = ca) and the corresponding crystal density is ob-...

In typical organic crystals, molecular pairs are easily sorted out and ab initio methods that work for gas-phase dimers can be applied to the analysis of molecular dimers in the crystal coordination sphere. The entire lattice energy can then be approximated as a sum of pairwise molecule-molecule interactions examples are crystals of benzene [40], alloxan [41], and of more complex aziridine molecules [42]. This obviously neglects cooperative and, in general, many-body effects, which seem less important in hard closed-shell systems. The positive side of this approach is that molecular coordination spheres in crystals can be dissected and bonding factors can be better analyzed, as examples in the next few sections will show. 

Obviously, chirality is an essential property in molecular chemistry, and knots are exciting systems in this context. With a touch of fantasy, it could be conceived that some of the chemical processes for which chirality is essential (enan-tioselection of substrates, asymmetric induction and catalysis, cholesteric phases, and ferroelectric liquid crystals molecular materials for non linear optics...) could one day use enantiomerically pure knots. 

The rearrangement of l-methylene-2-phenylcyclopropane (152) to 153 leads to an equilibrium254 at about 160 °C. The crystal molecular structures of both substances have been determined recently254. Bond lengths (A) in the two molecules are ... 

Supermolecular level liquid crystals are not of major concern in this review. In fact, they form a class of materials which should best be separated from the normal liquid crystals . Although there are structural similarities to the molecular liquid crystals, molecular motion and transition behavior of these liquid crystals based on supermolecular structure is completely different. 

The crystal molecular structure of /V1-hydroxylophine A -oxide (= I -hydroxy-2,4,5-triphenyl-17/-imidazole 3-oxide) (59) has been determined [72], This compound presents a case of degenerate or autotrope tautomerism (59a and 59b are identical), which is very common in annular tautomerism of NH-azoles but very rare in functional tautomerism [40], In the solid state, the tautomeric proton is in the middle between two consecutive monomers of the catemer [59]n [72],...

The stepwise addition of N-carboxy a-amino acid anhydrides to amino acids or peptides in organic solvents is well documented (for review see Refs. 69 and 70). More recently the method has been applied to peptide synthesis in aqueous solutions (71,72,73). Novel syntheses of N-substituted carboxyanhydrides of a-amino acids have been carried out (74,75) and the crystal molecular structures of several of them have been determined (76,77,78).
