CoSm(SeO₃)₂Cl, CuGd(SeO₃)₂Cl, MnSm(SeO₃)₂Cl, CuGd₂(SeO₃)₄ and CuSm₂(SeO₃)₄: Transition Metal containing Selenites of Samarium and Gadolinum The reaction of CoCl₂, Sm₂O₃, and SeO₂ in evacuated silica ampoules lead to blue single crystals of CoSm(SeO₃)₂Cl (triclinic, , Z = 4, a = 712.3(1), b = 889.5(2), c = 1216.2(2) pm, α = 72.25(1)°, β = 71.27(1)°, γ = 72.08(1)°, R_all = 0.0586). If MnCl₂ is used in the reaction light pink single crystals of MnSm(SeO₃)₂Cl (triclinic, , Z = 2, a = 700.8(2), b = 724.1(2), c = 803.4(2) pm, α = 86.90(3)°, β = 71.57(3)°, γ = 64.33(3)°, R_all = 0.0875) are obtained. Green single crystals of CuGd₂(SeO₃)₂Cl (triclinic, , Z = 4, a = 704.3(4), b = 909.6(4), c = 1201.0(7) pm, α = 70.84(4)°, β = 73.01(4)°, γ = 70.69(4)°, R_all = 0.0450) form analogously in the reaction of CuCl₂ and Gd₂O₃ with SeO₂. CoSm(SeO₃)₂Cl contains [CoO₄Cl₂] octahedra, which are connected via one edge and one vertex to infinite chains. The Mn²⁺ ions in MnSm(SeO₃)₂Cl are also octahedrally coordinated by four oxygen and two chlorine ligands. The linkage of the polyhedra to chains occurs exclusively via edges. Both, the cobalt and the manganese compound show the Sm³⁺ ions in eight and ninefold coordination of oxygen atoms and chloride ions. In CuGd(SeO₃)₂Cl the Cu²⁺ ions are coordinated by three oxygen atoms and one Cl^— ion in a distorted square planar manner. One further Cl^— and one further oxygen ligand complete the [CuO₃Cl] units yielding significantly elongated octahedra. The latter are again connected to chains via two common edges. For the Gd³⁺ ions coordination numbers of ?8 + 1”? and nine were found. Single crystals of the deep blue selenites CuM₂(SeO₃)₄ (M = Sm/Gd, monoclinic, P2₁/c, a = 1050.4(3)/1051.0(2), b = 696.6(2)/693.5(1), c = 822.5(2)/818.5(2) pm, β = 110.48(2)°/110.53(2)°, R_all = 0.0341/0.0531) can be obtained from reactions of the oxides Sm₂O₃ and Gd₂O₃, respectively, with CuO and SeO₂. The crystal structure contains square planar [CuO₄] groups and irregular [MO₉] polyhedra.

LiMn3(SeO3)2(HSeO3)6

The title compound, lithium trimanganese bis­[trioxo­selenate(IV)] hexa­kis[hydrogentrioxoselenate(IV)], is built up from a vertex‐sharing network of distorted Mn^IIIO₆ octa­hedra, SeO₃ and HSeO₃ pyramids and unusual Li(OH)₆ octa­hedra, resulting in a dense three‐dimensional structure. Mn, Li and one Se atom have site symmetries of , , and 3, respectively. An O—H⋯O hydrogen bond helps to establish the crystal packing.

Lanthanum selenite,La2(SeO3)3

Hydro­thermally prepared La₂(SeO₃)₃ contains a three‐dimensional network of LaO₁₀ polyhedra [d_av(La—O) = 2.622 (3) Å] and SeO₃ pyramids [d_av(Se—O) = 1.691 (3) Å]. One of the SeO₃ pyramids is in a general position and the other has crystallographic m symmetry. There are pseudo‐channels in the [010] direction which are probably associated with the Se^IV lone pairs.     

Au2(SeO3)2(SeO4): synthesis and characterization of a new noncentrosymmetric selenite-selenate

The reaction of elemental gold and selenic acid in Teflon-lined steel autoclaves leads to orange-yellow single crystals of Au2(SeO3)2(SeO4) (orthorhombic, Z = 4, Cmc2(1) (No. 36), a = 1689.1(3) pm, b = 630.13(8) pm, c = 832.7(1) pm, V = 886.2(2) angstroms3, Rall = 0.0452). In the crystal structure, Au3+ is surrounded by four oxygen atoms of just as many monodentate SeO3(2-) ions in a square planar manner. The linkage of the polyhedra leads to double chains in the [001] direction which are connected to puckered layers by SeO4(2-) groups. The noncentrosymmetric space group could be proved by the observation of an SHG effect upon irridation at 1064 nm that shows an efficiency of about 43% compared to a KDP reference. Upon heating, Au2(SeO3)2(SeO4) decomposes at about 370 degrees C in one step yielding elemental gold. The presence of selenite and selenate groups in the compounds is also obvious from the IR and Raman spectra which show the characteristic bands of both species. Furthermore, solid-state NMR spectra reveal the different surroundings of the selenium atoms in the compound.

Caesium vanadium(V) selenite contains infinite sheets of distorted vertex‐sharing VO₆ octahedra, capped by selenite groups [d_av(V—O) = 1.927 (4) Å and d_av(Se—O) = 1.709 (3) Å]. Interlayer caesium cations complete the structure [d_av(Cs—O) = 3.365 (4) Å].     

New vanadium selenites: centrosymmetric Ca2(VO2)2(SeO3)3(H2O)2, Sr2(VO2)2(SeO3)3, and Ba(V2O5)(SeO3), and noncentrosymmetric and polar A4(VO2)2(SeO3)4(Se2O5) (A = Sr2+ or Pb2+)

Five new vanadium selenites, Ca(2)(VO(2))(2)(SeO(3))(3)(H(2)O)(2), Sr(2)(VO(2))(2)(SeO(3))(3), Ba(V(2)O(5))(SeO(3)), Sr(4)(VO(2))(2)(SeO(3))(4)(Se(2)O(5)), and Pb(4)(VO(2))(2)(SeO(3))(4)(Se(2)O(5)), have been synthesized and characterized. Their crystal structures were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The compounds exhibit one- or two-dimensional structures consisting of corner- and edge-shared VO(4), VO(5), VO(6), and SeO(3) polyhedra. Of the reported materials, A(4)(VO(2))(2)(SeO(3))(4)(Se(2)O(5)) (A = Sr(2+) or Pb(2+)) are noncentrosymmetric (NCS) and polar. Powder second-harmonic generation (SHG) measurements revealed SHG efficiencies of approximately 130 and 150 × α-SiO(2) for Sr(4)(VO(2))(2)(SeO(3))(4)(Se(2)O(5)) and Pb(4)(VO(2))(2)(SeO(3))(4)(Se(2)O(5)), respectively. Piezoelectric charge constants of 43 and 53 pm/V, and pyroelectric coefficients of -27 and -42 μC/m(2)·K at 70 °C were obtained for Sr(4)(VO(2))(2)(SeO(3))(4)(Se(2)O(5)) and Pb(4)(VO(2))(2)(SeO(3))(4)(Se(2)O(5)), respectively. Frequency dependent polarization measurements confirmed that the materials are not ferroelectric, that is, the observed polarization cannot be reversed. In addition, the lone-pair on the Se(4+) cation may be considered as stereo-active consistent with calculations. For all of the reported materials, infrared, UV-vis, thermogravimetric, and differential thermal analysis measurements were performed. Crystal data: Ca(2)(VO(2))(2)(SeO(3))(3)(H(2)O)(2), orthorhombic, space group Pnma (No. 62), a = 7.827(4) ?, b = 16.764(5) ?, c = 9.679(5) ?, V = 1270.1(9) ?(3), and Z = 4; Sr(2)(VO(2))(2)(SeO(3))(3), monoclinic, space group P2(1)/c (No. 12), a = 14.739(13) ?, b = 9.788(8) ?, c = 8.440(7) ?, β = 96.881(11)°, V = 1208.8(18) ?(3), and Z = 4; Ba(V(2)O(5))(SeO(3)), orthorhombic, space group Pnma (No. 62), a = 13.9287(7) ?, b = 5.3787(3) ?, c = 8.9853(5) ?, V = 673.16(6) ?(3), and Z = 4; Sr(4)(VO(2))(2)(SeO(3))(4)(Se(2)O(5)), orthorhombic, space group Fdd2 (No. 43), a = 25.161(3) ?, b = 12.1579(15) ?, c = 12.8592(16) ?, V = 3933.7(8) ?(3), and Z = 8; Pb(4)(VO(2))(2)(SeO(3))(4)(Se(2)O(5)), orthorhombic, space group Fdd2 (No. 43), a = 25.029(2) ?, b = 12.2147(10) ?, c = 13.0154(10) ?, V = 3979.1(6) ?(3), and Z = 8.     

Pr4(SeO3)2(SeO4)F6 und NaSm(SeO3)(SeO4): Selenit‐Selenate der Selten‐Erd‐Elemente

Pr₄(SeO₃)₂(SeO₄)F₆ and NaSm(SeO₃)(SeO₄): Selenite‐Selenates of Rare Earth Elements Light green single crystals of Pr₄(SeO₃)₂(SeO₄)F₆ have been obtained from the decomposition of Pr₂(SeO₄)₃ in the presence of LiF in a gold ampoule. The monoclinic compound (C2/c, Z = 4, a = 2230.5(3), b = 710.54(9), c = 835.6(1) pm, β = 98.05(2)°, R_all = 0.0341) contains two crystallographically different Pr³⁺ ions. Pr(1)³⁺ is attached by six fluoride ions and two chelating SeO₃^2– groups (CN = 10), Pr(2)³⁺ is surrounded by four fluoride ions, three monodentate SeO₃^2– and two SeO₄^2– groups. One of the latter acts as a chelating ligand, so the CN of Pr(2)³⁺ is 10. The selenite ions are themselves coordinated by five and the selenate ions by four Pr³⁺ ions. The coordination number of the F^– ions is three and four, respectively. The linkage of the coordination polyhedra leads to cavities in the crystal structure which incorporate the lone pairs of the selenite ions. The reaction of Sm₂(SeO₄)₃ and NaCl in gold ampoules yielded light yellow single crystals of NaSm(SeO₃)(SeO₄). The monoclinic compound (P2₁/c, Z = 4, a = 1066.9(2), b = 691.66(8), c = 825.88(9) pm, β = 91.00(2)°, R_all = 0.0530) contains tenfold oxygen coordinated Sm³⁺ ions. The oxygen atoms belong to five SeO₃^2– and two SeO₄^2– ions. Two of the SeO₃^2– groups as well as one of the SeO₄^2– groups act as a chelating ligand. The sodium ions are surrounded by five SeO₄^2– ions and one SeO₃^2– group. One of the selenate ions is attached chelating leading to a coordination number of seven. Each selenite group is coordinated by six (5 × Sm³⁺ and 1 × Na⁺), each selenate ion by seven cations (5 × Na⁺ and 2 × Sm³⁺).

The pyramidal (SeO₃)^2— anions are located between the chains; their triangular oxygen atom bases lie parallel to (001) and all (SeO₃)^2— groups are pointing in the same direction. A short compilation of [O₂M₃] chains of oxocentred M₄ tetrahedra in minerals and inorganic compounds is provided.

The First UV Nonlinear Optical Selenite Material: Fluorination Control in CaYF(SeO3)2 and Y3F(SeO3)4

It is a great challenge to develop UV nonlinear optical (NLO) material due to the demanding conditions of strong second harmonic generation (SHG) intensity and wide band gap. The first ultraviolet NLO selenite material, Y₃F(SeO₃)₄, has been obtained by control of the fluorine content in a centrosymmetric CaYF(SeO₃)₂. The two new compounds represent similar 3D structures composed of 3D yttrium open frameworks strengthened by selenite groups. CaYF(SeO₃)₂ has a large birefringence (0.138@532 nm and 0.127@1064 nm) and a wide optical band gap (5.06 eV). The non-centrosymmetric Y₃F(SeO₃)₄ can exhibit strong SHG intensity (5.5×KDP@1064 nm), wide band gap (5.03 eV), short UV cut-off edge (204 nm) and high thermal stability (690 °C). So, Y₃F(SeO₃)₄ is a new UV NLO material with excellent comprehensive properties. Our work shows that it is an effective method to develop new UV NLO selenite material by fluorination control of the centrosymmetric compounds.
