77. nX′ with n = 4, 6, 8 (resulting interatomic distances: 1.563, 1.567, 1.569 Å % contractions: 56.3, 56.7, 56.9). The ξ values were 0.56657, 0.64343, and 0.71274, respectively. Next two semicircles were arranged in an S or ∩∪ shape, such that the termini or X-X′ distances were 9, 13, and 17 Å. Ten, 14, and 18 atoms were again spaced evenly along the circumference (resulting interatomic distances: 1.539, 1.555, 1.562 Å; % contractions: 53.9, 55.5, 56.2). The ξ 0.53009, 0.63718, and 0.72870, were similar to those of the single semicircles. Note that the least-squares lines for the single semicircles do not contain the endgroups, but those for the S-shaped double-semicircles must. Since the former can "float", it is intuitively plausible that the ξ values are approximately equal.

85. Analogous calculations for all compounds in Table 5 were carried out using the midpoints of the carbon chains as opposed to the midpoints of the X/X′ vectors. In more than half the cases, the φ and offset values were identical. In a few cases, modest deviations were observed, corresponding to nonidealities resulting from the relative chain conformations (e.g., parallel and antiparallel relationships between molecules with bow conformations as discussed in the text).

96. It appears challenging to formulate the stacking requirement in terms of symmetry. When the polyyne occupies a special position (i.e., a 2-fold axis or symmetry center), polymerization will generally be possible, subject to the other metrical requirements. When the polyyne occupies a general position, the crystal lattice must be further scrutinized. When the nearest polyynes are related by a translation along any axis, a topochemical polymerization will be possible. Data for compounds analyzed: C10-1, special position, nearest neighbor relation: x, y, z/x, 1+y, z; C8-7a, general position, nearest neighbor relation: x, y, z/x, 1+y, z; C8-18, special position, nearest neighbor relation: x, y, z/z, y-1, z; C12-7, special position, nearest neighbor relation: x, y, z/x, y, z-1; C8-27·4acetone, special position, nearest neighbor relation: x, y, z/x, 1+y, z; C8-8, special position, nearest neighbor relation: x, y, z/x-1, y, z; C8-10, general position, nearest neighbor relation: x, y, x/1-x, 2-y, 1-z; C8-5, general position, nearest neighbor relation: x, y, z/1-x, 1-y, 1-z.
