abstract

  • Ab-initio structure determination of Ni(BME-DACH)SO2 has been carried out by a combination of real space methods and Rietveld analysis from powder X-ray diffraction patterns obtained from microgram quantities of the compound mounted on a nylon loop (space group. P21/c, a - 8.871(1), b = 14.480(1), c = 10.576(1) , = 95.98(1). The structure of Ni(BME-DACH)SO2 shows that Ni(BME-DACH) complex remains intact and is related to the structure of Ni(BME-DACH)2SO2, providing a platform for SO2 binding. We have also followed the desulfoxidation of the 2SO2 adduct by in-situ micro-powder X-ray diffraction and, based on the results, a mechanism is proposed. Copyright 2005 Taylor & Francis, Inc.
