The isotypic nitridosilicates Li₄Ca₃Si₂N₆ and Li₄Sr₃Si₂N₆ were synthesized by reaction of strontium or calcium with Si(NH)₂ and additional excess of Li₃N in weld shut tantalum ampoules. The crystal structure, which has been solved by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction (Li₄Sr₃Si₂N₆: C2/m, Z = 2, a = 6.1268(12), b = 9.6866(19), c = 6.2200(12) Å, β = 90.24(3)°, wR₂ = 0.0903) is made up from isolated [Si₂N₆]^10– ions and is isotypic to Li₄Sr₃Ge₂N₆. The bonding angels and distances within the edge‐sharing [Si₂N₆]^10– double‐tetrahedra are strongly dependent on the lewis acidity of the counterions. This finding is discussed in relation to the compounds Ca₅Si₂N₆ and Ba₅Si₂N₆, which also exhibit isolated [Si₂N₆]^10– ions.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of the Lithium Strontium Hydride Nitride LiSr₂H₂N LiSr₂H₂N was synthesized by the reaction of LiH and Li₃N with elemental strontium in sealed tantalum tubes at 650 °C within seven days. This second example of a quaternary hydride nitride crystallizes orthorhombically in space group Pnma (no. 62) with the lattice constants a = 747.14(5) pm, b = 370.28(3) pm and c = 1329.86(9) pm (Z = 4). Its crystal structure contains both kinds of anions H^? and N^3? in a sixfold distorted octahedral metal cation coordination each. The coordination polyhedra [(H1)Sr₅Li]¹⁰⁺, trans‐[(H2)Sr₄Li₂]⁹⁺ and [NSr₅Li]⁸⁺ are connected via edges and corners to form a three‐dimensional network. Two crystallographically different Sr²⁺ cations exhibit a sevenfold monocapped trigonal prismatic coordination by H^? and N^3? with [(Sr1)H₅N₂]^9? and [(Sr2)H₄N₃]^11? polyhedra, wheras Li⁺ shows a nearly planar fourfold coordinative environment ([LiH₃N]^5?). Cationic double chains of edge‐shared [NSr₅Li]⁸⁺ octahedra dominate the structure according to . Running parallel to the [0 1 0] direction, they are bundled like a hexagonal rod‐packing which is interconnected by H^? anions within the (0 0 1) plane first and finally even in the third dimension (i. e. along [0 0 1]). Therefore the structure of LiSr₂H₂N is compared to that one of the closely related quaternary hydride oxide LiLa₂HO₃.

However, LiBa₂[Al(CN₂)₄] forms a distinct crystal structure, containing a two‐dimensional [(NCN)_2/2Li(NCN)₂Al(NCN)_2/2] network with four‐coordinate Li⁺ and Al³⁺ ions. Two crystallographically independent Ba²⁺ ions are situated in eightfold environment of terminal nitrogen atoms of cyanamide ions.     

Further Example of Diphosphates: Synthesis and Characterization of K2Li2P2O7

By the application of cation substitution, a new mixed‐alkali metal diphosphate, K₂Li₂P₂O₇, was successfully synthesized through high temperature solution method for the first time. The single‐crystal X‐ray structural analysis shows that it crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c (no. 15), with lattice constants a = 9.814(3) Å, b = 5.5163(15) Å, c = 13.538(4) Å, Z = 4, and β = 110.47(2)°. Its open cage‐like _∞³[Li₂(P₂O₇)]^2– framework is built up from alternating arrangement of Li₂O₆ and P₂O₇ dimers that form eight and twelve‐membered‐ring channels along the [010] direction, and the K atoms are entrapped in the larger twelve‐membered‐ring channels. Detailed structure comparisons in the N₄P₂O₇ (N = mixed alkali metals) family are discussed. In addition, the structural validity was verified through the IR spectrum. Thermal analyses and UV/Vis/NIR diffuse reflectance spectrum are also performed on the reported compound.     

Synthese,Kristallstruktur und Festkörper‐NMR‐spektroskopische Untersuchung des Oxonitridosilicates BaSi6N8O

Synthesis, Crystal Structure and Solid‐State NMR Spectroscopic Investigation of the Oxonitridosilicate BaSi₆N₈O The phase‐pure oxonitridosilicate BaSi₆N₈O has been synthesized starting from BaCO₃ and silicon diimide Si(NH)₂ in a radiofrequency furnace at temperatures below 1630 °C as a coarsely crystalline colorless material. The structure has been determined by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis (BaSi₆N₈O, space group Imm2 (no. 44), a = 810.5(2), b = 967.8(2), c = 483.7(1) pm, V = 379.4(2)·10⁶ pm³, Z = 2, R1 = 0.014, 618 independent reflections, 44 parameters). The oxonitridosilicate comprises a three‐dimensional network structure of corner sharing SiN₄ and SiON₃ tetrahedra with Ba²⁺ located in the resulting voids. BaSi₆N₈O is isostructural with the oxonitridoalumosilicate (sialon) Sr₂Al_xSi_12?xN_16?xO_2+x (x ≈ 2) that previously has been described in the literature. Furthermore, the anionic network of BaSi₆N₈O derives from that of the homeotypic reduced nitridosilicate SrSi₆N₈ by a topotactic insertion of oxygen into the Si–Si single bonds. In the ²⁹Si MAS‐NMR spectrum two sharp isotropic signals have been observed at ?54.0 and ?56.3 ppm, respectively. With respect to their observed intensity ratio of 1 : 2.1(1) these two signals have to be attributed to the central atoms of SiON₃ and SiN₄ tetrahedra, respectively, which is in accordance with the X‐ray crystal structure determination (Si at Wyckoff positions 4d (SiON₃) and 8e (SiN₄)).     

LiSr2[TaN3]F – a Single Chain Nitridotantalate

The chain type nitridotantalate LiSr₂[TaN₃]F was synthesized by reaction of strontium with AlF₃, Eu(NH₂)₂, LiN₃ and lithium metal as fluxing agent in weld shut tantalum ampoules.

The crystal structure (Pbca (no. 61), a = 10.768(2), b = 5.5913(11), c = 15.891(3) Å, Z = 8) was solved on the basis of single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction data. LiSr₂[TaN₃]F contains infinite chains of vertex sharing TaN₄ tetrahedra running along [010]. The structure can be understood as an intercalation of Li⁺ and F^– into Sr₂TaN₃. Lattice energy calculations (MAPLE) and EDX measurements confirmed the electrostatic bonding interactions and the chemical composition.

In 2‐(2‐deoxy‐β‐d ‐erythro‐pentofuranosyl)‐1,2,4‐triazine‐3,5(2H,4H)‐dione (6‐aza‐2′‐deoxy­uridine), C₈H₁₁N₃O₅, (I), the conformation of the glycosylic bond is between anti and high‐anti [χ = −94.0 (3)°], whereas the derivative 2‐(2‐deoxy‐β‐d ‐erythro‐pentofuranosyl)‐N⁴‐(2‐methoxy­benzoyl)‐1,2,4‐triazine‐3,5(2H,4H)‐dione (N³‐anisoyl‐6‐aza‐2′‐deoxy­uridine), C₁₆H₁₇N₃O₇, (II), displays a high‐anti conformation [χ = −86.4 (3)°]. The furanosyl moiety in (I) adopts the S‐type sugar pucker (²T₃), with P = 188.1 (2)° and τ_m = 40.3 (2)°, while the sugar pucker in (II) is N (³T₄), with P = 36.1 (3)° and τ_m = 33.5 (2)°. The crystal structures of (I) and (II) are stabilized by inter­molecular N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O inter­actions.     

Synthesis,Crystal Structure and Lithium Motion of Li8SeN2 and Li8TeN2

The compounds Li₈EN₂ with E = Se, Te were obtained in form of orange microcrystalline powders from reactions of Li₂E with Li₃N. Single crystal growth of Li₈SeN₂ additionally succeeded from excess lithium. The crystal structures were refined using single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction as well as X‐ray and neutron powder diffraction data (I4₁md, No. 109, Z = 4, Se: a = 7.048(1) Å, c = 9.995(1) Å, Te: a = 7.217(1) Å, c = 10.284(1) Å). Both compounds crystallize as isotypes with an anionic substructure motif known from cubic Laves phases and lithium distributed over four crystallographic sites in the void space of the anionic framework. Neutron powder diffraction pattern recorded in the temperature range from 3 K to 300 K and X‐ray diffraction patterns using synchrotron radiation taken from 300 K to 1000 K reveal the structural stability of both compounds in the studied temperature range until decomposition. Motional processes of lithium atoms in the title compounds were revealed by temperature dependent NMR spectroscopic investigations. Those are indicated by significant changes of the ⁷Li NMR signals. Lithium motion starts for Li₈SeN₂ above 150 K whereas it is already present in Li₈TeN₂ at this temperature. Quantum mechanical calculations of NMR spectroscopic parameters reveal clearly different environments of the lithium atoms determined by the electric field gradient, which are sensitive to the anisotropy of charge distribution at the nuclear sites. With respect to an increasing coordination number according to 2 + 1, 3, 3 + 1, and 4 for Li(3), Li(4), Li(2), and Li(1), respectively, the values of the electric field gradients decrease. Different environments of lithium predicted by quantum mechanical calculations are confirmed by ⁷Li NMR frequency sweep experiments at low temperatures.

New Sr Compounds with Planar Al‐Si/Ge Anions and a Correction of SrSi‐II and SrGe_0.76 Planar anions with considerable p_π‐p_π interactions between heavier group 13 and 14 elements are observed in several alkaline earth trielides and tetrelides. In the intermetallics of the series SrAlxGe_2?x (border phases: x = 1: , a = 429.4(3), c = 474.4(3) pm, Z = 1, R1 = 0.0305, SrPtSb type and x = 1.6: P6/mmm, a = 440.4(2), c = 478.2(2) pm, Z = 1, R1 = 0.0125, AlB₂ type) graphite analogue planar Al/Ge nets with short Al‐Ge bonds are stacked in identical orientation, showing inter‐layer distances of approx. 475 pm. Starting from the related planar ribbons of condensed six‐membered rings in the known intermetallics (M^IV = Si, Ge) a series of new metal‐rich oxides with chain pieces consisting of three, two and finally only one six‐membered ring have been prepared and characterized on the basis of single crystal X‐ray data. The formal fragmentation of the ribbons is achieved by the incorporation of [OSr₆] octahedra, chains of which (connected via common corners) exactly fit the distance between the planar anions. The structures of the two compounds (M^IV = Si, Ge; formerly erroneously reported as SrSi and SrGe_0.76, space group Immm, a = 482.48(5)/484.55(8), b = 1306.5(2)/1342.2(2), c = 1814.0(2)/1857.4(3) pm, Z = 2, R1 = 0.0369/0.0316) contain isolated planar anions [M₂Al₂M₂Al₂M₂]^18? with only one six‐membered ring.

The puzzling bonding situation in these type of polar intermetallics at the Zintl border is calculated (using the DFT FP‐LAPW approach) for the structures with manageably small unit cells and discussed for the series SrAlM – Sr₃Al₂M₂ – Sr₁₆[Al₈M₁₀][O] – Sr₁₃[Al₆M₈][O] – Sr₁₀[Al₄M₆][O].
