Abstract The caesium phosphates Cs3(H1.5PO4)2(H2O)2 and Cs3(H1.5PO4)2 were obtained from aqueous solutions, and Cs4P2O7(H2O)4 and CsPO3 from solid state reactions, respectively. Cs3(H1.5PO4)2, Cs4P2O7(H2O)4, and CsPO3 were fully structurally characterized for the first time on basis of single-crystal X-ray diffraction data recorded at − 173 °C. Monoclinic Cs3(H1.5PO4)2 (Z = 2, C2/m) represents a new structure type and comprises hydrogen phosphate groups involved in the formation of a strong non-symmetrical hydrogen bond (accompanied by a disordered H atom over a twofold rotation axis) and a very strong symmetric hydrogen bond (with the H atom situated on an inversion centre) with symmetry-related neighbouring anions. Triclinic Cs4P2O7(H2O)4 (Z = 2, P$$\bar{1}$$ 1 ¯ ) crystallizes also in a new structure type and is represented by a diphosphate group with a P–O–P bridging angle of 128.5°. Although H atoms of the water molecules were not modelled, O···O distances point to hydrogen bonds of medium strengths in the crystal structure. CsPO3 is monoclinic (Z = 4, P21/n) and belongs to the family of catena-polyphosphates (MPO3)n with a repetition period of 2. It is isotypic with the room-temperature modification of RbPO3. The crystal structure of Cs3(H1.5PO4)2(H2O)2 was re-evaluated on the basis of single-crystal X-ray diffraction data at − 173 °C, revealing that two adjacent hydrogen phosphate anions are connected by a very strong and non-symmetrical hydrogen bond, in contrast to the previously described symmetrical bonding situation derived from room temperature X-ray diffraction data. In the four title crystal structures, coordination numbers of the caesium cations range from 7 to 12. Graphic abstract

The crystal structure redetermination of Sr2PdO3 (distrontium palladium trioxide) was carried out using high-quality single-crystal X-ray data. The Sr2PdO3 structure has been described previously in at least three reports [Wasel-Nielen & Hoppe (1970). Z. Anorg. Allg. Chem. 375, 209–213; Muller & Roy (1971). Adv. Chem. Ser. 98, 28–38; Nagata et al. (2002). J. Alloys Compd. 346, 50–56], all based on powder X-ray diffraction data. The current structure refinement of Sr2PdO3, as compared to previous powder data refinements, leads to more precise cell parameters and fractional coordinates, together with anisotropic displacement parameters for all sites. The compound is confirmed to have the orthorhombic Sr2CuO3 structure type (space group Immm) as reported previously. The structure consists of infinite chains of corner-sharing PdO4 plaquettes interspersed by SrII atoms. A brief comparison of Sr2PdO3 with the related K2NiF4 structure type is given.

RhPb2 (rhodium dilead) is a superconductor crystallizing in the CuAl2 structure type (space group I4/mcm). The Rh and Pb atoms are located at the 4a (site symmetry 422) and 8h (m.2m) sites, respectively. The crystal structure is composed of [RhPb8] antiprisms, which share their square faces along the c axis and the edges in the direction perpendicular to the c axis. We have succeeded in growing single crystals of RhPb2 and have re-determined the crystal structure on basis of single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. In comparison with the previous structure studies using powder X-ray diffraction data [Wallbaum (1943). Z. Metallkd. 35, 218–221; Havinga et al. (1972). J. Less-Common Met. 27, 169–186], the current structure analysis of RhPb2 leads to more precise unit-cell parameters and fractional coordinates, together with anisotropic displacement parameters for the two atoms. In addition and likewise different from the previous studies, we have found a slight deficiency of Rh in RhPb2, leading to a refined formula of Rh0.950 (9)Pb2.

Single crystals of rubidium tetrafluoridobromate(III), RbBrF4, were grown by melting and recrystallizing RbBrF4 from its melt. This is the first determination of the crystal structure of RbBrF4 using single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. We confirmed that the structure contains square-planar [BrF4]− anions and rubidium cations that are coordinated by F atoms in a square-antiprismatic manner. The compound crystallizes in the KBrF4 structure type. Atomic coordinates and bond lengths and angles were determined with higher precision than in a previous report based on powder X-ray diffraction data [Ivlev et al. (2015). Z. Anorg. Allg. Chem. 641, 2593–2598].

When crystals of 9-tricyclo[4.4.1.0]undecalyl-4-(carbomethoxy)phenyl ketone (1) were allowed to stand in the dark for extended periods of time at room temperature, the compound underwent a thermal reaction — the enolene rearrangement — to afford enol 2. The crystals remained transparent and appeared unchanged in shape as the reaction proceeded. X-ray diffraction data were collected on single crystals containing 17%, 25%, 66%, and 100% of the enol. The crystal structure of a simple enol was obtained via this novel single-crystal-to-single-crystal enolene rearrangement.Key words: single crystal, thermal, rearrangement, enol, enolene.

Anisotropic Displacement Parameters

The crystal structure of Mg2B25, dimagnesium pentaeicosaboride, was reexamined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. The structural model previously reported on the basis of powder X-ray diffraction data [Giunchi et al. (2006). Solid State Sci. 8, 1202–1208] has been confirmed, although a much higher precision refinement was achieved, leading to much smaller standard uncertainties on bond lengths and refined occupancy factors. Moreover, all atoms were refined with anisotropic displacement parameters. Mg2B25 crystallizes in the β-boron structure type and is isostructural with other rhombohedral compounds of the boron-rich metal boride family. Magnesium atoms are found in interstitial sites on special positions (two with site symmetry .m, one with .2 and one with 3m), all with partial occupancies.

Anisotropic Displacement Parameters

The crystal structure of the β-polymorph of ZnMoO4was re-determined on the basis of single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. In comparison with previous powder X-ray diffraction studies [Katikaneani & Arunachalam (2005).Eur. J. Inorg. Chem. pp. 3080–3087; Cavalcanteet al.(2013).Polyhedron,54, 13–25], all atoms were refined with anisotropic displacement parameters, leading to a higher precision with respect to bond lengths and angles. β-ZnMoO4adopts the wolframite structure type and is composed of distorted ZnO6and MoO6octahedra, both with point group symmetry 2. The distortion of the octahedra is reflected by variation of bond lengths and angles from 2.002 (3)–2.274 (4) Å, 80.63 (11)–108.8 (2)° for equatorial and 158.4 (2)– 162.81 (14)° for axial angles (ZnO6), and of 1.769 (3)–2.171 (3) Å, 73.39 (16)–104.7 (2), 150.8 (2)–164.89 (15)° (MoO6), respectively. In the crystal structure, the same type ofMO6octahedra share edges to built up zigzag chains extending parallel to [001]. The two types of chains are condensed by common vertices into a framework structure. The crystal structure can alternatively be described as derived from a distorted hexagonally closed packed arrangement of the O atoms, with Zn and Mo in half of the octahedral voids.

The crystal structures of hydrothermally synthesized silver(I) aluminium bis[hydrogen arsenate(V)], AgAl(HAsO4)2, silver(I) gallium bis[hydrogen arsenate(V)], AgGa(HAsO4)2, silver gallium diarsenate(V), AgGaAs2O7, and sodium gallium diarsenate(V), NaGaAs2O7, were determined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data collected at room temperature. The first two compounds are representatives of the MCV-3 structure type known for KSc(HAsO4)2, which is characterized by a three-dimensional anionic framework of corner-sharing alternatingM3+O6octahedra (M= Al, Ga) and singly protonated AsO4tetrahedra. Intersecting channels parallel to [101] and [110] host the Ag+cations, which are positionally disordered in the Ga compound, but not in the Al compound. The hydrogen bonds are relatively strong, with O...O donor–acceptor distances of 2.6262 (17) and 2.6240 (19) Å for the Al and Ga compounds, respectively. The two diarsenate compounds are representatives of the NaAlAs2O7structure type, characterized by an anionic framework topology built ofM3+O6octahedra (M= Al, Ga) sharing corners with diarsenate groups, andM+cations (M= Ag) hosted in the voids of the framework. Both structures are characterized by a staggered conformation of the As2O7groups.

AbstractThe crystal structure of the phase Ce5AgxGe4−x (x = 0.1−1.08) has been determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction data for Ce5Ag0.1Ge3.9. This phase is isotypic with Sm5Ge4: space group Pnma (No. 62), Pearson code oP36, Z = 4, a = 7.9632(2), b = 15.2693(5), c = 8.0803(2) Å; R1 = 0.0261, wR2 = 0.0460, 1428 F2 values and 48 variables. The two crystallographic positions 8d and 4c show Ge/Ag mixing, leading to a slight increase in the lattice parameters as compared to those of the pure binary compound Ce5Ge4.
