Isolated Co(IO₃)₂(H₂O)₄ octahedra form layers parallel (100). Within these layers, the two crystallographically different hydrate water molecules form nearly linear hydrogen bonds to adjacent IO₃^– ions (ν_OD of matrix isolated HDO of Co(IO₃)₂ · 4 H₂O (isotopically diluted samples) 2443 (H3), 2430 (H2), and 2379 cm^–1 (H1 and H4), –180 °C). Intramolecular O–H and intermolecular H…O distances were derived from the novel ν_OD vs. r_OH and the traditional ν_OD vs. r_H…O correlation curves, respectively. The internal modes of the iodate ions of the title compounds are discussed with respect to their coupling with the librations of the hydrate H₂O molecules, the distortion of the IO₃^– ions, and the influence of the lattice potential.     

Solid‐Liquid Equilibria in the Quinary Na+, K+//Cl−, SO2−4, B4O2−7‐H2O System at 298 K

The solid‐liquid equilibria in the quinary system Na⁺, K⁺//Cl^?, SO^2?₄, B₄O^2?₇‐H₂O at 298 K had been studied experimentally using the method of isothermal solution saturation.

Tribochemistry and kinetics of Al2(SO4)3·xH2O decomposition

The thermal decomposition of tribochemically activated Al₂(SO₄)₃·xH₂O was studied by TG, DTA and EMF methods. For some of the intermediate solids, X-ray diffraction and IR-spectroscopy were applied to learn more about the reaction mechanism. Thermal and EMF studies confirmed that, even after mechanical activation of Al₂(SO₄)₃·xH₂O, Al₂O(SO₄)₂ is formed as an intermediate. Isothermal kinetic experiments demonstrated that the thermochemical sulphurization of inactivated Al₂(SO₄)₃·xH₂O has an activation energy of 102.2 kJ·mol^?1 in the temperature range 850–890 K. The activation energy for activated Al₂(SO₄)₃·xH₂O in the range 850–890 K is 55.0 kJ·mol^?1. The time of thermal decomposition is almost halved when Al₂(SO₄)₃·xH₂O is activated mechanically. The results permit conclusions concerning the efficiency of the tribochemical activation of Al₂(SO₄)₃·xH₂O and the chemical and kinetic mechanisms of the desulphurization process.

K2[Hg(SO3)2]·2.25H2O

The characteristic feature of the structure of the title compound, dipotassium bis(sulfito‐κS)mercurate(II) 2.25‐hydrate, is a layered arrangement parallel to (001) where each of the two independent [Hg(SO₃)₂]²⁻ anions are grouped into centrosymmetric pairs and are surrounded by two K⁺ cations to give the overall layer composition {K₂[Hg(SO₃)₂]₂}²⁻. The remaining cations and the uncoordinated water molecules are situated between these layers. Within the [Hg(SO₃)₂]²⁻ anions, the central Hg atoms are twofold coordinated by S atoms, with a mean Hg—S bond length of 2.384 (2) Å. The anions are slightly bent [174.26 (3) and 176.99 (3)°] due to intermolecular O...Hg interactions greater than 2.8 Å. All coordination polyhedra around the K⁺ cations are considerably distorted, with coordination numbers ranging from six to nine. Although the H atoms of the five water molecules (one with symmetry 2) could not be located, O...O separations between 2.80 and 2.95 Å suggest a system of medium to weak O—H...O hydrogen bonds which help to consolidate the structural set‐up. Differences and similarities between the bis(sulfito‐κS)mercurate(II) anions in the title compound and those in the related salts (NH₄)₂[Hg(SO₃)₂] and Na₂[Hg(SO₃)₂]·H₂O are discussed.

Polysulfonylamine. CLXIII [1] Kristallstrukturen von Metall‐di(methansulfonyl)amiden. 12 [1] Das orthorhombische Doppelsalz Na2Cs2[(CH3SO2)2N]4·3H2O: Ein dreidimensionales Koordinationspolymer aus (Caesium‐Anion‐Wasser)‐Schichten und intercalierten Natriumionen

Polysulfonylamines. CLXIII. Crystal Structures of Metal Di(methanesulfonyl)amides. 12. The Orthorhombic Double Salt Na₂Cs₂[(CH₃SO₂)₂N]₄·3H₂O: A Three‐Dimensional Coordination Polymer Built up from Cesium‐Anion‐Water Layers and Intercalated Sodium Ions The packing arrangement of the three‐dimensional coordination polymer Na₂Cs₂[(MeSO₂)₂N]₄·3H₂O (orthorhombic, space group Pna2₁, Z′ = 1) is in some respects similar to that of the previously reported sodium‐potassium double salt Na₂K₂[(MeSO₂)₂N]₄·4H₂O (tetragonal, P4₃2₁2, Z′ = 1/2). In the present structure, four multidentately coordinating independent anions, three independent aquo ligands and two types of cesium cation form monolayer substructures that are associated in pairs to form double layers via a Cs(1)—H₂O—Cs(2) motif, thus conferring upon each Cs⁺ an irregular O₈N₂ environment drawn from two N, O‐chelating anions, two O, O‐chelating anions and two water molecules. Half of the sodium ions occupy pseudo‐inversion centres situated between the double layers and have an octahedral O₆ coordination built up from four anions and two water molecules, whereas the remaining Na⁺ are intercalated within the double layers in a square‐pyramidal and pseudo‐C₂ symmetric O₅ environment provided by four anions and the water molecule of the Cs—H₂O—Cs motif. The net effect is that each of the four independent anions forms bonds to two Cs⁺ and two Na⁺, two independent water molecules are involved in Cs—H₂O—Na motifs, and the third water molecule acts as a μ₃‐bridging ligand for two Cs⁺ and one Na⁺. The crystal cohesion is reinforced by a three‐dimensional network of conventional O—H···O=S and weak C—H···O=S/N hydrogen bonds.

Kaliumhydrogensulfat-Dihydrogensulfat,K(HSO4)(H2SO4) – Synthese und Kristallstruktur

Potassium Hydrogensulfate Dihydrogensulfate, K(HSO₄)(H₂SO₄) – Synthesis and Crystal Structure Single crystals with the composition KH₃(SO₄)₂ have been synthesized from the system Potassium sulfate/sulfuric acid. The hitherto crystallographically not investigated compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c (14) with the unit cell parameters a = 7.654(3), b = 11.473(5) and c = 8.643(3) Å, β = 112.43(3)°, V = 701.6 ų, Z = 4 and D_x = 2.22 g · cm^?3. The structure contains two types of tetrahedra, SO₃(OH) and SO₂(OH)₂. These tetrahedra form tetramers via hydrogen bonds consisting of both, two SO₃(OH) and two SO₂(OH)₂ tetrahedra. The tetramers are linked to each other via hydrogen bonds. Potassium is coordinated by 9 oxygen atoms which belong to both kinds of tetrahedra. These potassium oxygen polyhedra are connected by common faces forming chains running parallel z.     

The effect of coordinated water on the connectivity of uranium(IV) sulfate x‐hydrate: [U(SO4)2(H2O)5]·H2O and [U(SO4)2(H2O)6]·2H2O,and a comparison with other known structures

Two new solid‐state uranium(IV) sulfate x‐hydrate complexes (where x is the total number of coordinated plus solvent waters), namely catena‐poly[[pentaaquauranium(IV)]‐di‐μ‐sulfato‐κ⁴O:O′] monohydrate], {[U(SO₄)₂(H₂O)₅]·H₂O}_n, and hexaaquabis(sulfato‐κ²O,O′)uranium(IV) dihydrate, [U(SO₄)₂(H₂O)₆]·2H₂O, have been synthesized, structurally characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction and analyzed by vibrational (IR and Raman) spectroscopy. By comparing these structures with those of four other known uranium(IV) sulfate x‐hydrates, the effect of additional coordinated water molecules on their structures has been elucidated. As the number of coordinated water molecules increases, the sulfate bonds are displaced, thus changing the binding mode of the sulfate ligands to the uranium centre. As a result, uranium(IV) sulfate x‐hydrate changes from being fully crosslinked in three dimensions in the anhydrous compound, through sheet and chain linking in the tetra‐ and hexahydrates, to fully unlinked molecules in the octa‐ and nonahydrates. It can be concluded that coordinated waters play an important role in determining the structure and connectivity of U^IV sulfate complexes.

Comparatively low v(Pd? N)-frequencies reveal the trans-influence of the sulfite ligands also in the vibrational spectra.
