Syntheses and Crystal Structures of Rb₄Br₂O and Rb₆Br₄O In the quasi‐binary system RbBr/Rb₂O, the addition compounds Rb₄Br₂O and Rb₆Br₄O are obtained by solid state reaction of the boundary components RbBr and Rb₂O. Crystals of red‐orange Rb₄Br₂O as well as of orange Rb₆Br₄O decompose immediately when exposed to air.

Na2C2 und K2C2: Synthese,Kristallstruktur und spektroskopische Eigenschaften

Na₂C₂ and K₂C₂: Synthesis, Crystal Structure, and Spectroscopic Properties By the reaction of sodium or potassium solved in liquid ammonia with acetylene and subsequent heating in high vacuum Na₂C₂ and K₂C₂ could be synthesised as single phase products. The crystal structures described by Föppl could be confirmed by X-ray and neutron diffraction experiments (K₂C₂) on powdered samples. Both compounds crystallise in a tetragonal structure (I4₁/acd, no. 142, Z = 8) which can be described as a distorted variant of the antifluorite-structure type. At temperatures above room temperature (Na₂C₂: 580 K, K₂C₂: 420 K) a reversible phase transition (1^st order transition) to a cubic modification (Fm 3 m, no. 225, Z = 4) has been observed, analogous to the alkaline earth metal acetylides. This high temperature modification represents an undistorted antifluorite structure with disordered C₂^2– dumbbells. The results of raman- and ¹³C-MAS-NMR-spectroscopic investigations are in agreement with acetylide dumbbells in the title compounds and allow a comparison to the respective monoalkalimetal and alkaline earth metal acetylides.     

Rb3ReH10, ein neues Hydrid des siebenwertigen Rheniums – Hochdrucksynthese und Kristallstruktur

Rb₃ReH₁₀, a New Rhenium(VII) Hydride – High Pressure Synthesis and Crystal Structure The ternary hydride Rb₃ReH₁₀ can be synthesised by reacting rubidium hydride with rhenium in a hydrogen atmosphere under a pressure of above 4000 bar in a temperature range between 700 and 870 K. X-ray investigations on powder samples and elastic neutron diffraction experiments on the deuterated compound led to the crystal structure. According to the formula [ReD₉]DRb₃ the atomic arrangement of the room temperature modification corresponds to that of the perowskite structure type. The coordination polyhedron of the hydrogen atoms that surround each rhenium atom can be described crystallographically as a statistical occupation of two 24-fold positions with hydrogen. In the orthorhombic low-temperature modification the deuterium ligands are arranged in ordered positions. They form monocapped square antiprisms. Magnetic susceptibility measurements revealed Rb₃ReD₁₀ to be diamagnetic.

Neue Oxocadmate der Alkalimetalle: K6[CdO4],Rb6[CdO4], Rb2CdO2 und Rb2Cd2O3

The crystal structure of K₆[CdO₄] and Rb₂CdO₂ has been determined from single crystal X-ray diffraction data and refined toR=0.058 (K₆[CdO₄]) andR=0.088 (Rb₂CdO₂). K₆[CdO₄] crystallizes hexagonal, space group P6₃mc with lattice constantsa=867.42 (6),c=665.5 (1) pm,c/a=0.767 andZ=2. It is isotypic with Na₆[ZnO₄]. Rb₂CdO₂ is orthorhombic, space group Pbcn witha=1045.0 (2),b=629.1 (1),c=618.3 (1) pm,Z=4, and crystallizes with the K₂CdO₂ structure type. The crystal structures can be deduced from the motif of a closest packed arrangement of O^2– with hexagonal (K₆[CdO₄]) or cubic (Rb₂CdO₂) stacking. The tetrahedra occupied by Cd²⁺ are isolated (K₆[CdO₄]) or edge-shared (formation of infinite SiS₂-like chains [CdO_4/2]) (Rb₂CdO₂). The powder diffraction pattern of Rb₆[CdO₄] [a=906.6 (1),c=694.3 (1) pm] and Rb₂Cd₂O₃ [a=642.6 (2),b=679.0 (1),c=667.9 (2) pm, =115.2 (1)] confirm isotypie with K₆[CdO₄] and K₂Cd₂O₃ respectively.

Korrektur zur Kristallstruktur von „Cs4PbO3”︁ und die Strukturverwandtschaft zwischen den Modifikationen von Cs4PbO4

Correction of the Crystal Structure of “Cs₄PbO₃” and the Structural Relationship between the Modifications of Cs₄PbO₄ The compound that has been described as Cs₄PbO₃ really is Cs₄PbO₄. It does not crystallize in the space group P2₁, as assumed, but in P2₁/c. The observed fictitiuous violation of the extinction law for the c glide plane is due to twinning. The structure was refined using the original data as well as new data from an untwinned crystal. The denomination β-Cs₄PbO₄ is used to distinguish this structure from another known modification (α-Cs₄PbO₄). Both structures, α-Cs₄PbO₄ and β-Cs₄PbO₄, can be derived from the sphere packing of γ-plutonium when certain voids in its packing are occupied with oxygen atoms.

CsC2H: Synthese,Kristallstruktur und spektroskopische Eigenschaften

CsC₂H: Synthesis, Crystal Structure, and Spectroscopic Properties CsC₂H was synthesised by the reaction of caesium solved in liquid ammonia with acetylene. The crystal structure could be solved and refined from X‐ray and neutron powder diffraction data (space group: R3c, Z = 18). The structure is characterised by C₂H^– trimers which are surrounded by caesium ions. Spectroscopic investigations (IR and Raman) of the stable monoalkalimetal acetylides mainly confirm the data given in the literature and show that the alkalimetal cation has a marked influence on the vibrational properties of the C₂H^– anion.

Edge bridged SbS₄ polyhedra build vierer single chains (Sb₄S₈^4?)_n, which are linked via two symmetry related S atoms with neighbouring chains so that an (Sb₄S₇^2?)_n sheet is formed.
