Effect of crystal packing • Packing refers to arrangement of individual molecules in the crystal. • The “packing forces” to simply fill the space if no significant intermolecular interactions. • Examples of possible intermolecular interactions: • Electrostatic interactions in ionic crystals • Dipole-dipole interactions in salts and polar molecules. • H-bonding(may be considered a sub-type of dipole-dipole interactions) • Closed-shell M-M interactions “metallophilic bonding” • Good understanding of packing may allow us the understanding of what leads to certain interesting physical properties that may be important for a variety of applications.
* Just packing forces even without specific intermolecular forces may lead to various interesting properties when certain crystallographic point or space groups are obtained • We illustrated this last time (piezoelectricity, pyroelectricity, ferroelectricity, optical activity, enantiomorphism, ) * Certain types of intermolecular interactions may lead to other interesting properties. H-bonding and protein structure, electrostatic stacking and magnets or conductors, metallophilic stacking and luminescent materials, etc. * We shall illustrate some specific cases studies from the literature.
Literature case studies TRIBOLUMINESCENCE: Non-centric space groups Conducting materials Segregated 1-D stacks Magnetic materials Integrated 1-D stacks Photoluminescent materials Packing by closed-shell metal-metal interactions
Case study# 1: TRIBOLUMINESCENCE: DISCUSSED IT LAST TIME: • Related to piezoelectricity. • Non-centric space groups (Zink’s rule). • Exceptions might occur if: • Compound is ionic • Presence of iezoelectric impurities • Papers discussed (responsible for): • B. P. Chandra, J. I. Zink, Inorg. Chem., 1980, 19, 3098. • Cotton, F. A.; Daniels, L. M.; Huang, P. Inorg. Chem. Comm., 2001, 4, 319.
Case study# 2: Conducting materials • Crystal packing: infinite 1-D chains, but segregated stacks: …D-D-D-D-….//…A-A-A-A-…. D= electron donor A= electron acceptor • Electrostatic interactions between the two segregated chains • Conducting materials (Metals)
Case study# 3: Magnets • Crystal packing: infinite 1-D chains with alternating D/A molecules (integrated stacks): …D-A-D-A-D-A-D-A-…. D= electron donor A= electron acceptor • Electrostatic interactions WITHIN the chain Molecular Magnets (strong ferromagnetic coupling)
Organic example… • TTF-based “Organic Metals” • Donor (D)/Acceptor(A) adducts of TTF with organic acceptors like TCNQ. • TTF = tetrathiafulvalene • TCNQ = 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane • Draw structures

Inorganic example… • Dithiolene complexes of d8 metals • [M(SS)2]2+[M’(SS’)2]2- • Stack in two ways: • (1) …D-A-D-A-D-A-D-A-…. • Produce “ion pair charge transfer” (IPCT) absorptions and lead to electrical conductivity (conductors) • (2) …D-D-A-D-D-A-…. • Don’t have IPCT but can be paramagnetic (usually TIP) and semiconducting

Clear SEM images were obtained for crystals that were not coated with a conducting film, suggesting a non-insulator behavior for these solid crystals (conductors or semiconductors).
Case study# 4: Photoluminescent materials • Crystal packing:by virtue of closed-shell metal-metal interactions • e.g., d10 complexes of Au(I), Ag(I), and Cu(I) • D10-d10 bonding is counterintuitive but takes place due to correlation/relativistic/hybridization effects • “Aurophilic; argentophilic; cuprophilic; argentoaurophilic” attractions often lead to photoluminescence

Emission spectra of TR(carb) versus exposure time to C6F6 vapor at ambient temperature and pressure • Exposure to C6F6VAPOR leads to the quenching of the luminescence of TR(carb)…. • Luminescence re-generated when crystals immersed in non-dissolving solvent.
Photoluminescence properties of Au3(carb)3.octafluoronaphthalene • The bright yellow luminescence is assigned to emission of the organic component. • The emission is strong at ambient temperature in the adduct while the octafluoronaphthalene is luminescent only at cryogenic temperatures. • The structured emission at 77K has a similar profile to that in the organic compound, with a modest red shift. • The Au-based emission is quenched because it is related to a dimer of the Au3 unit while the structure of the adduct does not show this dimerization.
Do acidic trinukes have similar exciting luminescence properties?
