Figure 6
Sequence of the formula units in the 3 × 5 superstructure approximation of quininium (R)-mandelate (only the non-H atoms are shown). For clarity, the orientations and the scaling of (a)–(d) differ. (a) The complete quininium cations and the mandelate anions. (b) The quinoline moieties of the quininium cations, showing a strong undulation. (c) The phenyl rings of the mandelate anions, showing a slight undulation and some displacement. (d) The vinyl groups, showing the two preferred orientations. |
