An X-ray Study of New Cellulose Complexes with Diamines Containing Three, Five, Six, Seven, and Eight Carbon Atoms by Joseph J. Creely; Leon Segal; Leopold Loeb is a Materials Science article available to read on EtoBox.
## Abstract Five new diamine‐cellulose complexes have been prepared from cotton by means of tri‐, penta‐, hexa‐, hepta‐, and octamethylenediamines. The diamine contents of the dry fibrous materials have been determined, and the characteristic x‐ray diffractometer tracings have been obtained. Satisfactory x‐ray fiber patterns could not be obtained for the hydrazine, hepta‐, and octamethylenediamine complexes. The distention of the 101 interplanar spacing was found to be related linearly to the number of carbon atoms in the diamine molecule. Intensity of the diffraction also increased markedly with diamme chain length. Unit cell dimensions of the new complexes have been calculated. The x‐ray data indicating that the 101 interplanar spacing is occupied by only one diamine molecule is supported by the analytical data showing a diamine content close to that required by an anhydroglucose‐diamine ratio of 2:1.
