Title: An Enantiotropic Disorder–Partial Order Solid-State Transformation in a Molecular Solid Involving a Phase with Z' = 12

Abstract

A structural study of the complex aminated stereotriads, [(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)oxy]-4-ethynyl-4-(1-fluorohexyl)-1,2,3-oxathiazocane-2,2-dione (1) and its reduced analogue, [(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)oxy]-4-ethenyl-4-(1-fluorohexyl)-1,2,3-oxathiazocane-2,2-dione (2), revealed a k12-type second-order phase transition in 1 and phase stability of 2 over the temperature range 100–400 K. The observed phase change in 1 has been linked to the partial ordering of the extensive positional disorder of the high temperature phase upon cooling as revealed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The ordering breaks the translational symmetry, introduces differences in the molecular volumes of the packed species, and results in a low-temperature crystal structure with Z'=12. The in situ powder X-ray diffraction studies suggest that the transition occurs between 237 K and 180 K upon cooling, but complete amorphization in the range of 244–274 K during heating complicated the assignment of the transition temperature. Lastly, the observed loss of crystallinity has been linked to the phase transition and implies that the loss of long range order is due to the crystallites undergoing the transformation independently from one another.
