Synthese und Charakterisierung von Tetrabromoferraten(III) AFeBr4 mit einwertigen Kationen A  Cs,Rb, Tl,NH4, K,Na, Li,Ag

Preparation and Characterization of Tetrabomoferrates(III) AFeBr₄ with Monovalent Cations A ? Cs, Rb, Tl, NH₄, K, Na, Li, Ag Tetrabromoferrates(III) AFeBr₄ of the monovalent cations A ? Cs, Rb, Tl, NH₄, Na, Ag, Li have been prepared in closed ampoules by reaction of the appropriate bromides with iron and an excessive amount of bromine. The dark red compounds were characterized by DTA, Raman spectroscopy and X-ray powder diffraction. Their crystal structures have been assigned to five structure types, containing FeBr₄ anions. The coordination number runs from 12 (Cs⁺, Rb⁺) over 10 (NH₄⁺) and 8 (K⁺), to 6 (Na⁺, Ag⁺, Li⁺). Lattice parameters for all compounds see “Inhaltsübersicht”. CsFeBr₄ and RbFeBr₄ crystallize orthorhombic in the BaSO₄-type, NH₄FeBr₄ monoclinic in the KAlBr₄-type, KFeBr₄ orthorhombic in the GaGaCl₄-type, NaFeBr₄ monoclinic in the NaGaBr₄-type, AgFeBr₄ and LiFeBr₄ monoclinic in the LiAlCl₄-type, while the structure of TlFeBr₄ is still unknown.
