| Popis | For [C(O)NH](N)2P(O)-based structures, the magnitude of the differences in the N—H?O, H?O=P and H?O=C angles has been evaluated when the N—H bond lengths, determined by X-ray diffraction, were compared to the neutron normalized values and the maximum percentage difference was obtained, i.e. about 3% for the angle even if the N—H bond lengths have a difference of about 30% (0.7 A for the X-ray and 1.03 A for the neutron-normalized value). The symmetries of the crystals are discussed with respect to the symmetry of the molecules, as well as to the symmetry of hydrogen-bonded motifs, and the role of the most directional hydrogen bond in raising the probability of obtaining centrosymmetric crystal structures is investigated. The work was performed by considering nine new X-ray crystal structures and 204 analogous structures retrieved from the Cambridge Structural Database. |
