In the solid state, a characteristic reaction is observed on heating of ground mixtures of 1-methyl-4-oxo-cis-2,6-diphenylthianium tetrafluoroborate (1) and alkali halides. These reactions occurred via ion exchange.These reaction products were 4-oxo-cis-2,6-diphenylthiane (6) and 5-(methylthio)-1,5-diphenyl-(E)-1-penten-s-trans-3-one (3) in KC1, mainly dibenzalacetone (4) in KBr, 1,5-bis(methylthio)-1,5-diphenylpentan-3-one (5), 3, 4, and 6 in KI, 3, 4, and 6 in NaCI, respectively, and different from those at room temperature. Moreover, the existence of three crystal forms (form I, II and III) and an amorphous form of 1 was confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction.Polymorphic transformations caused by heating, standing and by mechanical treatment such as grinding.In the solid-state reaction, grinding of mixture occurs the interaction such as adsorption.Moreover, thermal solid-state reaction by differential thermal analysis was affected by the grinding times and amount of alkali halide.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
