The alkali metal tri-iodides CsI 3 and KI 3 .H20 exemplify compounds of this type; polyiodides like the (CH3)4NI5 H ) I in which it is penta-iodide or the hepta-iodide (C 2 5 4 7' ' known that the anionic group is made up of I -3 units accompanied by iodine molecules, are not encompassed by this study. In the solid state the simple tri-iodides exhibit a wide range of stability, and the probable causes underlying this range in behaviour are reviewed against existing knowledge concerning the crystalline structure and current models of the anion bonding of these compounds. The presence of solvate molecules in the lattice has a profound effect upon the stability of the simple tri-iodides; also among the unsolvated species there is a range in stability which can be attributed to differences in the electrostatic environment experienced by the anion. This sensitivity to electrostatic environment is reflected in small differences in the geometric configuration of the anion among the unsolvated tri-iodides as revealed by crystal structure analysis. As the number of accurately known simple tri-iodide structures is was refined and the structure of RbI small, the structure of NH4I3 3 and the hydrated species, KI 3 .H20, were determined by the X-ray cryst- • allographic method. A preliminary to this work, made necessary by the unusual features . of the only available computing facilities, was the development of a complete integrated suite of crystallographic programs. Using the single crystal X-ray diffraction technique in conjunction with - group this program suite the accuracy with which the geometry of the 1 3 (v ) in is known was significantly improved. The structural analysis NH4I3 of RbI 3 proved that this compound was isostructural with CsI 3 , as had been anticipated on the basis of the known isomorphism of these two tri-iodides. In the case of KI 3 .H20, the structure differs from that of the unsolvated simple tri-iodides (which all crystallize with unit cells having centrosymmetric orthorhombic symmetry) in that this compound possesses a noncentrosymmetric monoclinic cell. However, both K1 •H 0 and the unsolvated tri-iodides share the same planar 3 2 structural motif defined by the relative arrangement of cations and anions in the cell. On the basis of the extended body of structural data made available by the examination of these compounds, it was shown that the stability of the simple tri-iodides can be qualitatively and quantitatively related to two effects. The first of these is the stabilizing influence of electronic interactions between neighbouring 1 groups 3 within the planar structure motif. The second is the destabilizing influence of any asymmetry in the electrostatic field experienced by the terminal atoms of the anion. The stability of the unsolvated species is determined by the balance struck between these two effects. It is suggested that in the case of the solvated simple tri-iodides, the presence of solvate molecules leads to a reduction in the de- stabilizing effect due to crystal field asymmetry, and that for this class of compounds their stability is largely conditioned by the strength of cation-solvate and solvate-solvate interactions. The crystal chemistry of this class of compounds can be system- atized by regarding the common simple tri-iodide structural motif as a variant of the structure of solid iodine on the one hand, and the penta- iodide structure on the other. Further, for those very stable tri- iodides which are solvated by organic molecules of moderate size so that (vi) the charged species interpenetrate a continuous hydrogen-bonded organic substructure, the dominance of their behaviour by the solvate-solvate interaction appears to be accompanied by the severe modification or loss of the structural motif.

In 1814 Gay-Lussac made the following comment - "Att 06 the hydADiodates (iodides in modern terminology) have The ptopeAty o6 dissotving iodine abundantty, thekeby becoming At/tong/4 cotouted teddizh-btown.

In 1819 Pelletier and Caventou [1819] described a new compound, which they named 'hydroiodure iodure', formed by the addition of iodine to strychnine. This compound was in all probability strychnine polyiodide, C 2 02302N2 I 3 . Their work, published in Annates de chimie et de physique, has some significance as it is the first report of a polyhalogen complex in the literature. The first account of a polyhalogen complex of an inorganic cation was published in 1839 in a series of four papers by Filhol [1839a, 1839b, 1839c, 1839d] in which he described the preparation and reactions of the compound potassium tetrachloroiodate, KIC1 4 .

    A Politico-Social History of Algolt (With a Chronology in the Form of a Log Book) R. w. BEMER Introduction This is an admittedly fragmentary chronicle of events in the develop­ ment of the algorithmic language ALGOL. Nevertheless, it seems perti­ nent, while we await the advent of a technical and conceptual history, to outline the matrix of forces which shaped that history in a political and social sense. Perhaps the author's role is only that of recorder of visible events, rather than the complex interplay of ideas which have made ALGOL the force it is in the computational world. It is true, as Professor Ershov stated in his review of a draft of the present work, that "the reading of this history, rich in curious details, nevertheless does not enable the beginner to understand why ALGOL, with a history that would seem more disappointing than triumphant, changed the face of current programming". I can only state that the time scale and my own lesser competence do not allow the tracing of conceptual development in requisite detail. Books are sure to follow in this area, particularly one by Knuth. A further defect in the present work is the relatively lesser availability of European input to the log, although I could claim better access than many in the U.S.A. This is regrettable in view of the relatively stronger support given to ALGOL in Europe. Perhaps this calmer acceptance had the effect of reducing the number of significant entries for a log such as this. Following a brief view of the pattern of events come the entries of the chronology, or log, numbered for reference in the text.

NON-AQJEOUS SOLVENTS FOR PREPARATION AND REACTIONS OF NITROGEN HALOGEN COMPOUNDS Jochen Jander Department of Chemistry, University of Heidelberg, D 69 Heidelberg, Germany Abstract -Theimportance of non—aqueous solvents for the chemistry of haloamines is shown in more recent reaction examples. The solvents must be low-melting because of the general temperature sensitivity of the haloamines. They may take part in the reaction (formation of CH NI •CH NH (CH )2NI, NI-,.5 NH-, and NH0I.NH-)ormay e ner (ormation of I .quinuiilidin, 2 NI •1 trithylenediamine, [I(qunuclidine),] salts pure NBr, and compounds of the type R1R2NC103 with R1 and R2 =orgnicgroup or hydrogen). INTRODUCTION Non-aqueous solvents play an important role in preparation and reactions of nitrogen halogen compounds. Due to the fact, that all haloamines are derivatives of ammonia or amines, liquid ammonia or liquid organic amines are used as solvents very often. Liquid ammonia and the lower organic amines reveal, in addition, the advantage of low melting points (liquid ammonia -78, liquid monomethylamine -93.5, liquid dimethylamine -92, liquid tn-. methylamine -12k°C); these meet the general temperature sensitivity of the nitrogen halogen compounds, especially of the pure .lorganic ones. Ammonia and amines are very seldom inert solvents; they mostly take part in the reaction planned for synthesis or conversion of the haloamine. In case a reaction of the solvent is to be avoided, one has to look for a low melting inert solvent, for example methylene chloride (m.p.
