AbstractThe synthesis and characterization of donor-acceptor substituted unsymmetrical bisdithiolene nickel complexes are described for the first time. X-ray single crystal data indicate that the complexes exist with two types of bonding structures, namely, the π-localized and π-delocalized structures. The relation between bonding structures and the molecular second-order nonlinear optical properties, i.e., solvatochromism, dipole moment, and molecular first hyperpolarizability is discussed.

The synthesis and characterization of a new series of mono-, di-, and trinuclear Cr(II) borohydride compounds is described. The reaction of CrCl2(TMEDA) with two equivalents of NaBH4 afforded the thermally unstable (TMEDA)Cr(BH4)2 (1), which was converted by treatment with pyridine into the octahedral monomeric (Py)4Cr(BH4)2 (2). The reaction proceeds via formation of an intermediate trinuclear complex {[(TMEDA)(Py)Cr(η2-BH4)]2[(Py)2Cr(η2-BH4)2]}(µ,η1-BH4)2 (3), which was isolated and characterized by X-ray crystallography. Reaction of 1 and 2 with both CO2 and RN=C=NR (R = Cy, iPr) afforded hydride insertion and formation of the corresponding diamagnetic lantern-type Cr(II) formate (HCO2)4Cr2Py2 (4) and formamidinate compounds [RNC(H)NR]2Cr2(µ-BH)4 (R = Cy (5a), iPr (5b)), respectively, with supershort Cr—Cr quadruple bonds. The structures of 1, 2, 3, and 5b were elucidated by X-ray analysis. Crystal data are as follows. 1: C6H24N2B2Cr, monoclinic, Cc, a = 8.517(2) Å, b = 15.921(5) Å, c = 9.624(2) Å, β = 115.59(1)°, Z = 4, R = 0.022, Rw = 0.029; 2: C28H44N4B2O2Cr, monoclinic, P21/n, a = 12.021(1) Å, b = 15.555(1) Å, c = 15.723(1) Å, β = 90.13(2)°, Z = 4, R = 0.074, Rw = 0.086; 3: C32H76N8B6Cr3, monoclinic, P21/n, a = 8.515(1) Å, b = 14.525(1) Å, c = 18.286(2) Å, β = 91.38(1)°, Z = 2, R = 0.051, Rw = 0.060; 5b: C21H49N6BCr2, monoclinic, C2/c, a = 17.000(1) Å, b = 9.033(1) Å, c = 19.160(1) Å, β = 105.579(9)°, Z = 4, R = 0.069, Rw = 0.078. Keywords: divalent chromium, borohydride, Cr—Cr quadruple bond.

Abstract Full elements of second-order nonlinear optical (NLO) tensor can be completely characterized for an organic NLO crystal for the first time. As-grown bulk N-benzyl-2-methyl-4-nitroaniline (BNA) crystal was processed to expose (100) and (010) crystal orientations with fine optical surfaces by using precision lathe and diamond blade. Then, every five nonvanishing second-order NLO coefficient of BNA can be determined quantitatively using the precisely processed crystals based on 1st-kind Maker fringe measurements. Our method makes it possible to clarify uncertain NLO property of any organic materials and to accelerate application study via precise device fabrications even for fragile organic materials.

Three rare-earth orthoborates Ba2MgY2(BO3)4, Ba2CdY2(BO3)4, and Ba2CdSc(BO3)3 were synthesized via a high-temperature solution method and their structures were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction for the first time.
