The Effect of Hydrogen Bonding on the Nucleophilicity and Basicity of Fluorid...
In nucleophilic fluorination reactions it is extremely difficult to tune the reactivity of the fluoride anion in organic solution to give the desired product. Building on our... -
Determination of the Crystallographic and Magnetic structures of RbMnBr3, RbF...
We propose to study the crystal structures of RbMnBr3, RbFeBr3 and RbNiBr3 between 300 and 0.3 K. RbMnBr3 under goes two structural phase transition by reducing Rb coordination.... -
Photocrystallography in retinal
Retinal plays a key role in visual perception. In the ground state it occurs in the cis form with a bent side chain, whilst after light exposure it assumes the trans form with... -
Investigation of the hydrogen bonding and anisotropic displacement parameters...
We will investigate the structure of 4-chloroimidazole, which undergoes extreme anisotropic thermal expansion. This is believed from our initial x-ray results to be due to a... -
Characterising anion binding by analysis of the electron density distribution
The aim of our work is to use charge density analysis to gain insight into the process of binding relatively small anions by specifically designed small organic molecules. These... -
Jahn-Tellar distortions in uranium compounds
A full understanding of the chemistry of the actinides has not been established, especially in comparison to transition metals. The treatment of nuclear waste by long term... -
Elucidating the Structure of [(LaCl)Ti28O40(OEt)38(X)]; but what is X?
Metal-doped TiO2 have particular applications as in catalysis of a range of reactions as well as in luminescence materials. Our strategy is to make well-defined molecular TixOy... -
Investigating thermal and light-induced spin crossover using neutron photocry...
Photocrystallography, a rapidly developing area in dynamic structural science, allows photoinduced structural changes and transient species to be studied. X-ray techniques have... -
Crystal structures of Na2MoO4.10H2O, Na2WO4.10H2O and Na2MnO4.10H2O.
Chemical substitution is a valuable technique for probing the behaviour of materials since this exerts a stress comparable in many respects to changes in pressure or... -
A combination study of the antiferromagnetism and diffusive magnetic scatteri...
As far as we know there is no single crystal neutron study on ErPr_2Si_2 yet, mainly due to fabrication difficulties. We have grown large (diameter: 6 mm; length: 8 mm) single... -
Hydrogen-bond ordering in hexamethylenetetramine hexahydrate as a function of...
The title compound, more succinctly referred to as HMT-hydrate, is a rare example of a water-framework zeolite structure with an organic guest molecule hydrogen bonded to the... -

Exploiting extraordinary flexibility in molecular frameworks: engineering fer...
This experiment is concerned with the response of a high-dielectric constant metal-organic framework (MOF), lead(II) tricyanomethanide, Pb(tcm)2 to applied electric fields.... -
Reversible B-H Bond Activation at Cationic Rh(III) Centres: Structural Charac...
Catalytic processes leading to the functionalization of organic molecules by boron-containing reagents are highly topical ¿ ranging from transition metal catalysed hydro- and... -
Phonons from diffraction and normal mode analysis in HMT
With the overall aim of extending the information derivable in a neutron single crystal diffraction experiment beyond the static structure, we are proposing to perform a... -
