Averievite-type compounds with the general formula (MX)[Cu5O2(TO4)], where M = alkali metal, X = halogen and T = P, V, have been synthesized by crystallization from gases and structurally characterized for six different compositions: 1 (M = Cs; X = Cl; T = P), 2 (M = Cs; X = Cl; T = V), 3 (M = Rb; X = Cl; T = P), 4 (M = K; X = Br; T = P), 5 (M = K; X = Cl; T = P) and 6 (M = Cu; X = Cl; T = V). The crystal structures of the compounds are based upon the same structural unit, the layer consisting of a kagome lattice of Cu2+ ions and are composed from corner-sharing (OCu4) anion-centered tetrahedra. Each tetrahedron shares common corners with three neighboring tetrahedra, forming hexagonal rings, linked into the two-dimensional [O2Cu5]6+ sheets parallel to (001). The layers are interlinked by (T5+O4) tetrahedra (T5+ = V, P) attached to the bases of the oxocentered tetrahedra in a “face-to-face” manner. The resulting electroneutral 3D framework {[O2Cu5](T5+O4)2}0 possesses channels occupied by monovalent metal cations M+ and halide ions X−. The halide ions are located at the centers of the hexagonal rings of the kagome nets, whereas the metal cations are in the interlayer space. There are at least four different structure types of the averievite-type compounds: the P-3m1 archetype, the 2 × 2 × 1 superstructure with the P-3 space group, the monoclinically distorted 1 × 1 × 2 superstructure with the C2/c symmetry and the low-temperature P21/c superstructure with a doubled unit cell relative to the high-temperature archetype. The formation of a particular structure type is controlled by the interplay of the chemical composition and temperature. Changing the chemical composition may lead to modification of the structure type, which opens up the possibility to tune the geometrical parameters of the kagome net of Cu2+ ions.

3D Framework

The Ag2MoO4–Cs2MoO4 system was studied by powder X-ray diffraction, the formation of a new double molybdate CsAg3(MoO4)2 was established, its single crystals were obtained, and its structure was determined. CsAg3(MoO4)2 (sp. gr. P3¯, Z = 1, a = 5.9718(5), c = 7.6451(3) Å, R = 0.0149) was found to have the structure type of Ag2BaMn(VO4)2. The structure is based on glaserite-like layers of alternating MoO4 tetrahedra and Ag1O6 octahedra linked by oxygen vertices, which are connected into a whole 3D framework by Ag2O4 tetrahedra. An unusual feature of the Ag2 atom environment is its location almost in the centre of an oxygen face of the Ag2O4 tetrahedron. Caesium atoms are in cuboctahedral coordination (CN = 12).We determined the structures of the double molybdate of rubidium and silver obtained by us previously and a crystal from the solid solution based on the hexagonal modification of Tl2MoO4, which both are isostructural to glaserite K3Na(SO4)2 (sp. gr. P3¯m1). According to X-ray structural analysis data, both crystals have nonstoichiometric compositions Rb2.81Ag1.19(MoO4)2 (a = 6.1541(2), c = 7.9267(5) Å, R = 0.0263) and Tl3.14Ag0.86(MoO4)2 (a = 6.0977(3), c = 7.8600(7) Å, R = 0.0174). In the case of the rubidium compound, the splitting of the Rb/Ag position was revealed for the first time am ong molybdates. Both structures are based on layers of alternating MoO4 tetrahedra and AgO6 or (Ag, Tl)O6 octahedra linked by oxygen vertices. The coordination numbers of rubidium and thallium are 12 and 10

The crystal structures of caesium dihydrogen arsenate(V) bis[trihydrogen arsenate(V)], Cs(H2AsO4)(H3AsO4)2, ammonium dihydrogen arsenate(V) trihydrogen arsenate(V), NH4(H2AsO4)(H3AsO4), and dilithium bis(dihydrogen phosphate), Li2(H2PO4)2, were solved from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. NH4(H2AsO4)(H3AsO4), which was hydrothermally synthesized (T = 493 K), is homeotypic with Rb(H2AsO4)(H3AsO4), while Cs(H2AsO4)(H3AsO4)2 crystallizes in a novel structure type and Li2(H2PO4)2 represents a new polymorph of this composition. The Cs and Li compounds grew at room temperature from highly acidic aqueous solutions. Li2(H2PO4)2 forms a three-dimensional (3D) framework of PO4 tetrahedra sharing corners with Li2O6 dimers built of edge-sharing LiO4 groups, which is reinforced by hydrogen bonds. The two arsenate compounds are characterized by a 3D network of AsO4 groups that are connected solely via multiple strong hydrogen bonds. A statistical evaluation of the As—O bond lengths in singly, doubly and triply protonated AsO4 groups gave average values of 1.70 (2) Å for 199 As—OH bonds, 1.728 (19) Å for As—OH bonds in HAsO4 groups, 1.714 (12) Å for As—OH bonds in H2AsO4 groups and 1.694 (16) Å for As—OH bonds in H3AsO4 groups, and a grand mean value of 1.667 (18) Å for As—O bonds to nonprotonated O atoms.

Chemical Disorder

We report two new variants of the X-phase (orthorhombic, space group Pnnm) derived from the Mn–Co–Ge system. Two compositionally related crystals were investigated by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The Mn14.9Co15.5Ge6.6 and Mn14Co16.2Ge6.8 intermetallic compounds are part of the homogeneity region of the X-phase and adopt the Mn14(Mn0.11Co0.64Si0.25)23 structure type. The composition obtained from refinement of the XRD data is in agreement with the EDS results. In the present study, chemical disorder was only detected on the 8h positions. The ordering is compared with other members of the X-phase family and shows that the degree of disordering depends on the chemical composition. No completely ordered variants of the X-phase have yet been reported.

The isotypic ternary compounds Ba3[MoN4] and Ba3[WN4] were prepared by reaction of the transition metals with barium (Ba3N2, resp.) under nitrogen. The crystal structures were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction: Ba3[MoN4] (Ba3[WN4]): Pbca; Z = 8; a = 1083.9(3) pm (1091.8(3) pm), b = 1030.3(3) pm (1037.5(3) pm), c = 1202.9(3) pm (1209.2(4) pm). The structures contain isolated tetrahedral anions [MN4]6- (M = Mo, W) which are arranged in form of slightly distorted hexagonal layers and which are stacked along [010] with the sequence (···AB···). Two of the three Ba atoms are situated between, the third one is placed within the layers of [MN4]-groups. In this way the structures can be derived from the Na3As structure type.

The (Ag,Pd)22Se6 phase was synthesized from individual elements by silica glass tube technique and structurally characterized from powder X-ray diffraction data. The (Ag,Pd)22Se6 phase crystallizes in Fm$\overline3$m symmetry, unit-cell parameters: a = 12.3169(2) Å, V = 1862.55(5) Å3, Z = 4, and Dc = 10.01 g/cm3. The crystal structure of the (Ag,Pd)22Se6 phase represents a stuffed 3a.3a.3a superstructure of the Pd structure (fcc), where only 4 from 108 available octahedral holes are occupied. Its crystal structure is related to the Cr23C6 structure type.

AbstractA new stacking variant of sodium hexa-hydroxo platinate(IV), Na2Pt(OH)6, was synthesized and its structure elucidated through X-ray diffraction. The new polymorph was prepared by direct reaction of PtO2 with an excess of NaOH solution applying elevated oxygen pressure at 300°C. The structure consists of layers of edge sharing Pt(OH)6 and Na(OH)6 octahedra. These layers are separated by an edge-to-edge distance of ~2.4 Å. The packing of the hydroxide ions corresponds to the hcp sequence, the title compound thus may be regarded a cation ordered variant of the Brucite structure type. During heating above T~300°C all constitutional water is released, and anhydrous Na2PtO3 remains as the solid residue.

Sol Gel Process

Strontium substituted hydroxyapatite(SrHAp) were fabricated both in the form of powder as reference and thin film by using inorganic precursor reaction. The sol-gel process has been used for the deposition of SrHAp layer on stainless steal 316L substrate by spin coating technique, after that the films were annealed in air at various temperatures. The chemical composition of SrHAp is represented (SrxCa1-x)5(PO4)3OH, where x is equal to 0, 0.5 and 1.0. Investigations of the phase structure of SrHAp were carried out by using X-ray diffraction technique (XRD). The results showed that strontium is incorporated into hydroxyapatite where its substitution for calcium increases in the lattice parameters, and Sr3(PO4)2 can be detected at 900°C. The SEM micrographs showed that SrHAp films exhibited porous structure before develop to a cross-linking structure.

Bond Length Distribution

The Ga- and In-substituted bismuthides Ca11GaxBi10–x, Ca11InxBi10–x, Yb11GaxBi10–x, and Yb11InxBi10–x(x< 2) can be readily synthesized employing molten Ga or In metals as fluxes. They crystallize in the tetragonal space groupI4/mmmand adopt the Ho11Ge10structure type (Pearson codetI84; Wyckoff sequencen2m j h2e2d). The structural response to the substitution of Bi with smaller and electron-poorer In or Ga has been studied by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods for the case of Ca11InxBi10–x[x= 1.73 (2); octabismuth undecacalcium diindium]. The refinements show that the In atoms substitute Bi only at the 8hsite. The refined interatomic distances show an unconventional – for this structure type – bond-length distribution within the anionic sublattice. The latter can be viewed as consisting of isolated Bi3−anions and [In4Bi820−] clusters for the idealized Ca11In2Bi8model. Formal electron counting and first-principle calculations show that the peculiar bonding in this compound drives the system toward an electron-precise state, thereby stabilizing the observed bond-length pattern.

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.

Slight Deficiency

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.
