Abstract
We have studied the crystal structures of ((phenyl)4As)2C60Cl at room temperature and below the phase transition at Tc = 1.25 K by single-crystal x-ray diffraction. At room temperature tetragonal lattice parameters were found as a = b = 12.588(1) Å and c = 20.345(1) Å. At T = 120 K the lattice parameters were determined as a = b = 12.5060(1) Å and c = 20.4420(1) Å. The room-temperature and low-temperature structures were found to be isostructural, with space group I4/m. Structure refinements were performed with restrictions on the C60 molecules according to the noncrystallographic isohedral point symmetry Ih. Derivations from this symmetry could not be found, suggesting that any possible Jahn-Teller distortion of the C60·- radical anions will be smaller than 0.01 Å. The phase transition observed in ESR at Tc = 125 K is proposed to be a glass transition. At room temperature there is dynamic disorder between two orientations of the C60 molecules as they are related by the 4-fold rotation. Below Tc the disorder becomes static. Two types of twinning have been observed in different crystals. The first type is represented by a rotation over 180° about the [1, 1, 1] axis. It results in different orientations of the 4-fold unique axes with angles of 82.4 degrees between them. Secondly, merohedral twinning was observed corresponding to the two orientations of the structure with 4/m symmetry on the tetragonal lattice. Both twinnings result in extra orientations of the C60 molecules, and they should be taken into account, when analysing the anisotropy of the physical properties of crystals of this compound.
