Abstract The crystal structure of Form A of dequalinium chloride has been solved and refined using synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction data, and optimized using density functional theory techniques. Dequalinium chloride Form A crystallizes in space group P4 2 2 1 2 (#94) with a = 26.2671(8), c = 9.1119(4) Å, V = 6,286.9(4) Å 3 , and Z = 8 at 298 K. Despite the conventional representation of the cation, the ring N atoms are not positively charged. The positive charges are distributed on the ring carbon atoms ortho and para to these N atoms. The central decyl chain conformation is more kinked than the all- trans that might be expected in the solid state, but contains only one unusual torsion angle. The crystal structure consists of an array of dequalinium cations, with chloride anions located in regions between the cations. There are short stacks of roughly parallel rings in multiple directions. There is only one classical hydrogen bond in the structure, N–H···Cl between one of the amino groups and one of the chloride anions. Several C–H···Cl hydrogen bonds are prominent, involving ring, chain, and methyl hydrogen atoms as donors. Particularly noteworthy are the hydrogen bonds from the first and second C atoms at each end of the decyl chain. The powder pattern has been submitted to the International Centre for Diffraction Data (ICDD) for inclusion in the Powder Diffraction File ™ (PDF ® ).

Six different types of Majiang bronze drums from Hechi City, Guangxi, China were collected from the Guangxi Museum to characterize the original scheme of polychromy and materials used for the drums. The composition of all the samples were determined by using scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. All the bronze drums contain mainly Cu, Sn, Pb, and As. Qualitative analysis of the structure by X-ray powder diffraction indicates that each of the six bronze drums contains four or five phases, namely (Cu, As), Pb, Cu3Sn, and Cu10Sn3 or Cu, Pb, As0.2Cu1.8, Cu3Sn, and Cu10Sn3. The Rietveld structural refinement is performed first time for the quantitative analysis of ancient bronze drums and inorganic cultural relics. This paper reports the result.
