Dynamik linearer Molekülanionen in den Hydrogensulfiden von Natrium,Kalium und Rubidium: Differential-Scanning-Kalorimetrie,Röntgen- und Neutronenbeugung

Dynamical Behaviour of Linear Molecular Anions in the Hydrogensulfides of Sodium, Potassium and Rubidium: Differential Scanning Calorimetry, X-ray and Neutron Diffraction Hydrogensulfides of the alkali metals M ? Na, K, Rb were prepared in autoclaves by the reaction of the corresponding metals with H₂S and D₂S, respectively, in the temperature range from 50°C to 150°C. Differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray and neutron diffraction methods reveal that both, the HS^?-and DS^?-compounds occur in three crystalline modifications with HT ? high-, MT ? medium- and LT ? low-temperature form: The temperatures and enthalpies for the changes of modifications of the H- and D-compounds are given and the atomic arrangements revealed mainly by neutron diffraction data are discussed, in relation to, for example, size of cations.
