Ein weiteres Gemischtvalentes Oxoniobat: Sr5Nb34+Nb25+O16

About a Mixed Valence Oxoniobate: Sr₅Nb₃⁴⁺Nb₂⁵⁺O₁₆ The hitherto unknown compound Sr₅Nb₅O₁₆ was prepared and examined by X-ray single crystal work. It crystallizes with orthorhombic symmetry (space group D–Pmn2₁, a = 3.992(1), b = 32.476(10), c = 5.677(2) Å; Z = 2). Sr₅Nb₅O₁₆ consists of stacked perovskite-like blocks cut by a plane perpendicular to the cube face diagonal of the perovskite structure. The coordination relations of the intersections between those blocks and the distribution of Nb⁵⁺ and Nb⁴⁺ are discussed.     

Die Kristallstruktur von Perowskiten ANiIIMVIO6. II. Das Sr2NiWO6

The Crystal Structure of Perovskites A Ni^IIM^VIO₆. II. Sr₂NiWO₆ The results of an X-ray single crystal study of the perovskite Sr[Ni^IIW^VI]⁽⁶⁾O₆, ordered in the octahedral sites, are given. While Sr[Ni^IITe^VI]⁽⁶⁾O₆ crystallizes in a monoclinically deformed structure of the perovskite (elpasolite) type, showing a phase transition to a tetragonal lattice at 675 °K, Sr[Ni^IIW^VI]⁽⁶⁾O₆ is tetragonal already at 298°K (space group: C; a = b = 5.559 Å; c = 7.918 Å; Z = 2). The Ni? O distances found for the tungsten compound are nearly identical with those of the tellurium perovskite. In contradiction to crystal field theory very different values of the ligand field parameter Δ (ca. 25%) are observed for these two compounds however. Obviously this effect is caused by the rather different kind of bonding within the NiO₆ polyhedra in the two compounds. On the basis of the structural results the Ni? O-bonding in the two perovskites is discussed in dependence of the next nearest cationic environment.

Ab initio study of the reaction of CHO+ with H2O and NH3

An MP4(full,SDTQ)/6-311++G(d,p)//MP2(full)/6-311++G(d,p) ab initio study was performed of the reactions of formyl and isoformyl cations with H₂O and NH₃, which play an important role in flame and interstellar chemistries. Two different confluent channels were located leading to CO+H₃O⁺/NH. The first one corresponds to the approach of the neutral molecule to the carbon atom of the cations. The second one leads to the direct proton transfer from the cations to the neutrals. At 900 K the separate products CO+H₃O⁺/NH are the most stable species along the Gibbs energy profiles for the processes. For the reaction with H₂O the reaction channel leading to HC(OH) (protonated formic acid) is disfavored with respect to the two CO+H₃O⁺ channels in agreement with the experimental evidence that H₃O⁺ is the major ion observed in hydrocarbon flames. According to our calculations, NH+H₂O are considerably more stable in Gibbs energy than NH₃+H₃O⁺;NH will predominate in the reaction zone when ammonia is added to CH₄+Ar diffusion flame, as experimentally observed. At 100 K the most stable structures are the intermediate complexes CO…HOH/HNH. Particularly the CO…HOH complex has a lifetime large enough to be detected and, therefore, could play a certain role in interstellar chemistry. ©1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

A B^IIB □M O₂₄ with A^II, B^II = Ba, Sr, Ca and M^VI = U, W Perovskites of type Ba₈B^IIB₂^III□UO₂₄ show polymorphic phase transformations of order disorder type. An 1:1 ordered orthorhombic HT form is transformed into a higher ordered LT modification with a fourfold cell content (four formula units Ba₈B^IIB□U₄O₂₄), compared to cubic 1:1 ordered perovskites A₂BMO₆. In the series Ba₈BaB□W₄O₂₄ and Sr₈SrB□W₄O₂₄ different ordering phenomena are observed. In comparison with 1:1 ordered cubic perovskites A₂BMO₆, the cell contains eight formula units AB^IIB□W₄O₂₄. The higher ordered cells with U^VI and W^VI are face centered, which has its origin in an ordering of cationic vacancies.     

Kristallstruktur und Eigenschaften von Calcium- und Strontiumhexathiodiphosphat(IV), Ca2P2S6 und Sr2P2S6, mit einem Beitrag zu Ca5P8 und Pb2P2S6

Crystal Structure and Properties of Calcium and Strontium Hexathiodiphosphate(IV), Ca₂P₂S₆ and Sr₂P₂S₆, with a Contribution on Ca₅P₈ and Pb₂P₂S₆ Ca₂P₂S₆ and Sr₂P₂S₆ were prepared from metal and a mixture of red phosphorus and sulfur (molar ratio M:P:S = 1:1:3) in 2 corundum crucibles inserted in quartz ampullae under vacuum (20 d 900°C). The compounds were obtained as colourless, crystalline powders containing single crystals. They crystallize in the Sn₂P₂S₆ (high temperature form) type structure (P2₁/c, Z = 2): Ca₂P₂S₆ a = 653.2(2)pm, b = 728.1(2)pm, c = 1110.1(4)pm, β = 124.00(4)°, d = 2.50(2); Sr₂P₂S₆ a = 664.3(2)pm, b = 755.7(3)pm, c = 1139.7(3)pm, β = 124.07(2)°, d = 2.97(2). The anions P₂S have staggered confirmation and are arranged with the motif of a cubic close-packing. Sr²⁺ is coordinated by 8S which form a twofold face-capped trigonal prism and belong to 4P₂S. Structure calculations clearly show that Pb₂P₂S₆ also crystallizes in P2₁/c and not in Pc [1]. Also, Raman- and IR-spectra of Ca₅P₈ were recorded at 20°C. The stretching vibrations of P were assigned in analogy to those of P₂S in alkaline earth hexathiodiphosphates(IV). The range of their frequencies (480 to 340 cm^?1) is essentially smaller and shifted to smaller values compared with P₂S in Ca₂P₂S₆ and Sr₂P₂S₆ (620 to 390 cm^?1). The symmetry of P is not D_3d but C_2h as in the case of P₂S.
