“very high”
van der Waals space compressed
coordination, packing changes
melting point of ice = 400ºC
deformation of covalent bonds
organic solid-state reactions
nearly all elements become metallic
electrons move off atoms
7
High pressure crystallography
from 1950’s onward
• initial interest from geophysics and astrophysics
• rocks, minerals, seismology, phase transitions
• planetary interiors
from early 1990’s
• work on molecular compounds
• compressed liquids: acetone, phenol, alcohols
• solvates, pharmaceuticals, energetic materials
8
High pressure crystallography
Very few metal-organic compounds reported, e.g.
• bis(dimethylglyoximato)platinum(II) O…O proton transfer
• spin-crossover in Fe(II) complexes
• resistivity in BEDT-TTF salts as a function of pressure
• pressure-dependence of structure in LiCp and KCp
• pressure-induced metal-to-insulator transitions in Pt(dmg)2
• metal-organic networks: (4-chloropyridinium)2[CoX4])
• some recent studies of copper complexes, MOFs, etc
• typically a few structures a year, but growing steadily

Experimental – the Technology
• pressure = force/area
• 1 Nm-2 = 1 Pa = 10-5 bar
• diamond anvil cell (~100 kbar)
• small sample compartment
• pressure-transmitting medium
• measure pressure by ruby fluorescence

Disclaimers
“Based on a true story …”
The film you have just seen is based on real results, but
does not represent an actual sequence of experiments.
“No animals …”
Unfortunately, several crystals were quite definitely
harmed during the making of this film.

Current work: [Pt([9]aneS3)(PPh3)2][PF6]2
• does not behave anything like the Pd analogue
• pressure does not induce … stacking
• no pyramidalisation at C11 under compression
• edge-to-face interactions are more important
• have preliminary results but need higher precision

Current work: [PdCl2([9]aneS2O)]
 α-[PdCl2([9]aneS2O)] - known phase:
2.985(16) Å
 facially bound, endo macrocycle
 forms alternating sheets of Pd2 dimers
3.768(4) Å
 HP study complete
3.405(4) Å
3.4937(8) Å
 β-[PdCl2([9]aneS2O)] - new phase:
 equatorially bound, exo macrocycle
 similar Pd2 dimers as in the α form
 but different packing of these
 cutting transforms crystals to α form
 γ-[PdCl2([9]aneS2O)] - new phase:
 equatorially bound, exo macrocycle
 proto-chains via intermolecular Pd···O
 HP study complete
3.213(15) Å
3.39(2) Å
Jeremiah Tidey
Current work: [PdCl2([9]aneS2O)]
 β-[PdCl2([9]aneS2O)] is a possible “disappearing polymorph”
 see J. D. Dunitz & J. Bernstein, Acc. Chem. Res. 1995, 28, 193–200
 formation of the β form may be kinetically favoured
 the γ polymorph may be more thermodynamically stable
 it may now be impossible to obtain the β form
 Multiple attempts over a year to regrow β-[PdCl2([9]aneS2O)]
 different solvents and solvent mixtures
 different methods, techniques and variations
 all such efforts were uniformly unsuccessful
 Obtained stable crystals of β-[PtCl2([9]aneS2O)]
 isomorphous with β-[PdCl2([9]aneS2O)]
 used as a seed for epitaxial growth of β-[PdCl2([9]aneS2O)]
 the disappearing polymorph has been recovered
 high pressure studies are underway on both complexes
Jeremiah Tidey
Future work
• In-house high pressure laboratory
all preliminary studies will be done here
also most of the complete studies
• Central facilities
Beamline I19 at Diamond Light Source
– for any difficult cases
– for structures near pressure limits
• Main areas of investigation
[M([9]aneS3)1-2]x+
[MX2([9]aneS2O)]
[M([9]aneS3)PP]x+
MOFs
48
Future work at Diamond
• High pressure studies on our new flexible MOFs
• Focus on MOFs with interesting properties
• Require the capabilities of EH2
• Intensity, focussed beam, sample centring
• Working at the limits of sample quality
• Need to optimise experimental conditions
• Develop the best experimental approaches
