Nomenclature, crystal structures

Satellite transition MAS NMR provides an alternative method for detennining the interactions. The intensity envelope of the spimiing sidebands are dominated by site A2 (using the crystal structure nomenclature) which has the smallest Cq, resulting in the intensity for the transitions of this site being spread over the smallest... 

Generally the name of a compound should correspond to the most stable tautomer (76AHCS1, p. 5). This is often problematic when several tautomers have similar stabilities, but is a simple and reasonable rule whose violation could lead to naming phenol as cyclohexadienone. Different types of tautomerism use different types of nomenclature. For instance, in the case of annular tautomers both are named, e.g., 4(5)-methylimidazole, while for functional tautomerism, usually the name of an individual tautomer is used because to name all would be cumbersome. In the case of crystal structures, the name should reflect the tautomer actually found therefore, 3-nitropyrazole should be named as such (97JPOC637) and not as 3(5)-nitropyrazole.

Fig. 7.14 Nomenclature for characteristic regions of peptide c >,t /-space taken from Karplus (1996). The frequencies of observed peptide conformations in protein crystal structures decrease from areas enclosed by a heavy solid line to regions enclosed by a plain solid line, to dashed outlines. Areas outside the dashed lines are disallowed in peptide conformational space. The lines are an approximate rendering of the exact contours given by Karplus (1996).

An introduction to crystal structures and nomenclature is given in the Supplementary Material Section SI. 

Another characteristic point is the special attention that in intermetallic science, as in several fields of chemistry, needs to be dedicated to the structural aspects and to the description of the phases. The structure of intermetallic alloys in their different states, liquid, amorphous (glassy), quasi-crystalline and fully, three-dimensionally (3D) periodic crystalline are closely related to the different properties shown by these substances. Two chapters are therefore dedicated to selected aspects of intermetallic structural chemistry. Particular attention is dedicated to the solid state, in which a very large variety of properties and structures can be found. Solid intermetallic phases, generally non-molecular by nature, are characterized by their 3D crystal (or quasicrystal) structure. A great many crystal structures (often complex or very complex) have been elucidated, and intermetallic crystallochemistry is a fundamental topic of reference. A great number of papers have been published containing results obtained by powder and single crystal X-ray diffractometry and by neutron and electron diffraction methods. A characteristic nomenclature and several symbols and representations have been developed for the description, classification and identification of these phases.

The crystal radius thus has local validity in reference to a given crystal structure. This fact gives rise to a certain amount of confusion in current nomenclature, and what it is commonly referred to as crystal radius in the various tabulations is in fact a mean value, independent of the type of structure (see section 1.11.1). The crystal radius in the sense of Tosi (1964) is commonly defined as effective distribution radius (EDR). The example given in figure 1.7B shows radial electron density distribution curves for Mg, Ni, Co, Fe, and Mn on the M1 site in olivine (orthorhombic orthosilicate) and the corresponding EDR radii located by Fujino et al. (1981) on the electron density minima.
