Abstract: | Ternary Halides of the Type A3MX6. IX Crystal Structures of Na3TiCl6 and K3TiCl6 Light yellow single crystals of Na3TiCl6 and K3TiCl6 are obtained from the binary components, TiCl3 and NaCl and KCl, respectively, in 1 : 3 molar ratios. Na3TiCl6 crystallizes with the cryolite type of structure (monoclinic, P21/n, Z = 2, a = 668,02(8), b = 709,13(6), c = 981,38(12) pm, β = 90,31(2)°) while K3TiCl6 belongs to the K3MoCl6 type of structure (monoclinic, P21/c, Z = 4, a = 1261,6(2), b = 751,36(8), c = 1210,7(2) pm, β = 108,30(2)°). |
