The crystal structure of Cr2[Ni(CN)4]3·10H2O has been determined on X-ray diffraction powder data by means of the Rietveld method. The starting model was based on the isomorphic, disordered structure of Mn3[Co(CN)6]2·12H2O. At room temperature the crystal is cubic, F4¯3m, a=10.097(6) Å, V=1029.4(5) Å3. The structure is disordered and contains 1.33 formula weights per unit cell. The Ni and Cr ions are coordinated by N and C atoms, respectively, forming octahedra linked by CN groups. The water molecules replace partly the chromium, carbon, and nitrogen positions in the crystal. The final R values are: Rwp=0.032 (Rexp=0.023), RB=0.088, and DW-Stat.=1.31 (DWexp=1.8).

The crystal structure of the ordered vacancy compound (OVC) Cu3In5Te9 was analyzed using powder X-ray diffraction data. Several structural models were derived from the structure of the Cu-poor Cu-In-Se compound b-Cu0.39In1.2Se2 by permuting the cations in the available site positions. The refinement of the best model by the Rietveld method in the tetragonal space group P2c (Nº 112), with unit cell parameters a = 6.1852(2) Å, c = 12.3633(9) Å, V = 472.98(4) Å3, led to Rp = 7.1 %, Rwp = 8.5 %, Rexp = 6.4 %, S = 1.3 for 162 independent reflections. This model has the following Wyckoff site atomic distribution: Cu1 in 2e (0,0,0); In1 in 2f (½,½,0), In2 in 2d (0,½,¼); Cu2-In3 in 2b (½,0,¼); in 2a (0,0,¼); Te in 8n (x,y,z).

Structure Solution

Kaliophilite is a feldspathoid mineral found in two Italian magmatic provinces and represents one of the 12 known phases with composition close to KAlSiO4. Despite its apparently simple formula, the structure of this mineral revealed extremely complex and resisted structure solution for more than a century. Samples from the Vesuvius–Monte Somma and Alban Hills volcanic areas were analyzed through a multi-technique approach, and finally the crystal structure of kaliophilite was solved using 3D electron diffraction and refined against X-ray diffraction data of a twinned crystal. Results were also ascertained by the Rietveld method using synchrotron powder intensities. It was found that kaliophilite crystallizes in space group P3 with unit-cell parameters a = 27.0597 (16), c = 8.5587 (6) Å, V = 5427.3 (7) Å3 and Z = 54. The kaliophilite framework is a variant of the tridymite topology, with alternating SiO4 and AlO4 tetrahedra forming sheets of six-membered rings (63 nets), which are connected along [001] by sharing the apical oxygen atoms. Considering the up (U) and down (D) orientations of the linking vertex, kaliophilite is the first framework that contains three different ring topologies: nine (1-3-5) (UDUDUD) rings, six (1-2-3) (UUUDDD) rings and twelve (1-2-4) (UUDUDD) rings. This results in a relatively open (19.9 tetrahedra nm−3) channel system with multiple connections between the double six-ring cavities. Such a framework requires a surprisingly large unit cell, 27 times larger than the cell of kalsilite, the simplest phase with the same composition. The occurrence of some Na for K substitution (3–10%) may be related to the characteristic structural features of kaliophilite. Micro-twinning, pseudo-symmetries and anisotropic hkl-dependent peak broadening were also detected, and they may account for the elusive character of the kaliophilite crystal structure.

Disodium Ethylenediaminetetraacetate

The title compound crystallizes in the form of racemic twins of hexagonal symmetry from slightly acidic aqueous solutions containing H6TeO6 and Na2H2edta in a broad range of molar ratios. The crystals are of excellent quality and high diffraction power, thus enabling the structure determination with a precission not routinely attainable by conventional single crystal X-ray diffraction (R = 0.015 at room temperature). The building units of the structure, held together by a system of hydrogen bonds, are the octahedral Te(OH)6 molecule, the H2edta2- anion with protonated nitrogens, two water molecules and two sodium cations surrounded by ten oxygens in the O4Na(mi-O)2NaO4 moiety of irregular geometry.

The room-temperature synchrotron powder X-ray diffraction pattern of the single phase perovskite lead magnesium niobate (PMN) has shown significant broadening in theqrange ∼ 5–7 Å−1compared with standard LaB6synchrotron powder X-ray diffraction data, taken under similar conditions. This broadening/asymmetry lies mainly towards the lower 2θ side of the Bragg peaks. Attempts to fit this data with the paraelectric cubic phase (Pm\bar 3m) and the local rhombohedral phase (R3m) corresponding to polar nanoregions (PNRs) are made using the Rietveld method. Rietveld refinements show that neither cubic (Pm\bar 3m) nor rhombohedral (R3m) symmetry can fit this XRD pattern satisfactorily. The two-phase refinement fits the experimental data satisfactorily and suggests that the weight percentage of the PNRs is approximately 12–16% at room temperature. The unit-cell volume of these rhombohedral PNRs is approximately 0.15% larger than that of the unit cell volume of the paraelectric cubic phase.

Polycrystalline samples of mixed Yb1−xTbxMnO3(x= 0, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75 and 1) were prepared by a solid state reaction procedure. Detailed crystal structure studies were performed using X-ray diffraction data obtained at room temperature. The application of the Rietveld method confirmed the reported hexagonalP63cmand orthorhombicPnmaphases forx= 0 (YbMnO3) andx= 1 (TbMnO3), respectively. A single hexagonal phase was also observed forx= 0.25, while in the case ofx= 0.50 andx= 0.75 both phases coexist in the produced samples. Crystallographic parameters for the pure compounds are in agreement with those found in the literature. Changes in the lattice parameters, unit-cell volume, polyhedral distortions and tilting observed in the mixed compounds are explained as a function ofx. Sharing of Tb3+and Yb3+ions between different sites is discussed.

New Phase

During investigations of the formation of hydrated magnesium carbonates, a sample of the previously unknown magnesium carbonate hexahydrate (MgCO3·6H2O) was synthesized in an aqueous solution at 273.15 K. The crystal structure consists of edge-linked isolated pairs of Mg(CO3)(H2O)4 octahedra and noncoordinating water molecules, and exhibits similarities to NiCO3·5.5H2O (hellyerite). The recorded X-ray diffraction pattern and the Raman spectra confirmed the formation of a new phase and its transformation to magnesium carbonate trihydrate (MgCO3·3H2O) at room temperature.

Reaction of K8{Ta6O19}·16H2O with [Ni(tren)(H2O)Cl]Cl·H2O in different solvents led to the formation of single crystals of the title compound, [Ni4Ta6O19(C6H18N4)4]·19H2O or {[Ni2(κ4-tren)(μ-κ3-tren)]2Ta6O19}·19H2O (tren is N,N-bis(2-aminoethyl)-1,2-ethanediamine, C6H18N4). In its crystal structure, one Lindqvist-type anion {Ta6O19}8– (point group symmetry \overline{1}) is connected to two NiII cations, with both of them coordinated by one tren ligand into discrete units. Both NiII cations are sixfold coordinated by O atoms of the anion and N atoms of the organic ligand, resulting in slightly distorted [NiON5] octahedra for one and [NiO3N3] octahedra for the other cation. These clusters are linked by intermolecular O—H...O and N—H...O hydrogen bonding involving water molecules into layers parallel to the bc plane. Some of these water molecules are positionally disordered and were refined using a split model. Powder X-ray diffraction revealed that a pure crystalline phase was obtained but that on storage at room-temperature this compound decomposed because of the loss of crystal water molecules.

A new 2,6-bis aminomethyl piperidine decavanadate hydrate, (C7N3H20)2V10O28.4.21H2O, was synthesized by slow evaporation of a solution at room temperature. The molecular structure was investigated by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In the crystal structure, the layers of decavanadate groups, organic cations, and water molecules are arranged parallel to the (010) plane. Also, the prepared compound has been analysed by FTIR spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The crystal structure of the title compound is stabilized by hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions. The cohesion of the structure is ensured by O-H…O and N-H…O hydrogen bonds. The three-dimensional Hirshfeld surface (3D-HS) and the relative two-dimensional fingerprint plots (2D-FPs) of (C7N3H20)2V10O28.4.21H2O compound revealed that the structure is dominated by O…H/H…O (70.8%) and H…H (18.5%) contacts.

The crystal structure of several compounds of Ca1−xSrxZr4(PO4)6 ceramics has been investigated by X-ray powder diffraction at room temperature. All compounds form a solid solution with a unique unit cell. While the lattice parameter a of the hexagonal unit cell decreases of about 0.9% with increasing Sr content only slightly, it considerably elongates in c direction (2.8%). No structural transformation has been observed by high-temperature X-ray diffraction up to 1000 °C.
