X-ray diffraction powder studies of some dithiol diesters of long chain acids.
X-ray diffraction powder data are reported for 25 mono- and dithiol diesters of straight chain aliphatic acids where the acid portion of the molecule consists of one of the following acids: octanoic, decanoic, dodecanoic, tetradecanoic, hexadecanoic or octadecanoic acids, and where the thiol portion consists of one of the following: 2-mercaptoethane, 1,2-ethanedithiol, 1,3-propanedithiol, 1,4-butanedithiol or 1,5-pentanedithiol. The individual compounds can be identified and distinguished by the long spacing data. The compounds crystallize in tilted monomolecular layers.
