Five new aliphatic-aromatic thiodiols: 1,2-bis[4-(2′-hydroxyethylthio)phenyl]ethane (C18H22O2S2), 1,2-bis[4-(3′-hydroxypropylthio)phenyl]ethane (C20H26O2S2), 1,2-bis[4-(6′-hydroxyhexylthio)phenyl]ethane (C26H38O2S2), 1,2-bis[4-(10′-hydroxydecylthio)phenyl]ethane (C34H54O2S2), 1,2-bis[4-(11′-hydroxyundecylthio)phenyl]ethane (C36H58O2S2) have been characterized by X-ray powder diffraction. These thiodiols can be used for synthesis of thermoplastic nonsegmented polyurethanes. Experimental 2θ peaks positions, relative peak intensities, values of d and Miller indices as well as unit cell parameters are reported.

Six A-type zeolites: NaA, MnNaA, CoNaA, NiNaA, ZnNaA, CdNaA have been characterized by X-ray powder diffraction. The zeolites with selected divalent cations have been synthesized by a very careful ion-exchange process using very high quality NaA zeolite. Experimental 2θ peak positions, relative peak intensities, values of d and Miller indices as well as a unit cell parameter are reported.

The structures of SmAlSi and SmAlGe were determined by the powder diffraction method. These compounds have a tetragonal structure of LaPtSi type, which is a ternary substitutional variant of α-ThSi2. Both prototype structures have the same extinction rules, and as a result, the choice of the structural type must be based on very careful examination of the peak intensities. This was done with the aid of a Rietveld refinement, which indicates a better fit of the LaPtSi structure.

N-derivatives of 4-chloro-3,5-dimethylphenoxyacetamide—2-(4-chloro-3,5-dimethylphenoxy)-N-(4-fluorophenyl)acetamide, 2-(4-chloro-3,5-dimethylphenoxy)-N-(3-chloro-4-fluorophenyl) acetamide, 2-(4-chloro-3,5-dimethylphenoxy)-N-[4-chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl] acetamide, 2-(4-chloro-3,5-dimethylphenoxy)-N-[3-chloro-4-methylphenyl]acetamide, 2-(4-chloro-3,5-dimethylphenoxy)-N-(2,4,6-tribromophenyl) acetamide, 2-(4-chloro-3,5-dimethylphenoxy)-N-pyridin-2-ylacetamide, 1-[(4-chloro-3,5-dimethylphenoxy)acetyl]-4-methylpiperazine, and 1-benzyl-4-[(4-chloro-3,5-dimethylphenoxy)acetyl]piperazine—have been characterized by X-ray powder diffraction. These organic compounds are potential pesticides. Experimental 2θ peak positions, relative peak intensities, values of d and Miller indices, and unit-cell parameters are presented.

These diols can be used for synthesis of thermoplastic nonsegmented polyurethanes. Experimental 2θ peaks positions, relative peak intensities, values of d, and Miller indices as well as unit-cell parameters are presented.

Five new derivatives of N-(ω-hydroxyalkyl)-4-chlorophenoxyacetamide [namely, 2-(4-chlorophenoxy)-N-(2-hydroxyethyl) acetamide, 2-(4-chlorophenoxy)-N-(3-hydroxypropyl) acetamide, 2-(4-chlorophenoxy)-N-[1-(hydroxymethyl) propyl] acetamide, 2-(4-chlorophenoxy)-N-(2-hydroxy-1,1-dimethylethyl) acetamide, and 2-(4-chlorophenoxy)-N-{2-[(2-hydroxyethyl) amino] ethyl} acetamide] and one 2-(4-chlorophenoxy) acetohydrazide have been characterized by X-ray powder diffraction. These organic compounds are potential pesticides. New diffraction data including experimental and calculated 2θ peaks positions, values of d, experimental relative peak intensities, and Miller indices as well as unit-cell parameters are reported.

These organic compounds are potential pesticides. Experimental 2θ peaks positions, relative peak intensities, values of d and Miller indices, and unit cell parameters are presented.
