Abstract  

The new hybrid material, cobalt selenate templated by 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (abbreviated dabco), has been synthesised by the slow evaporation method at room temperature. Its crystal structure was investigated using single crystal X-ray diffraction data. It crystallises in the monoclinic system (space group P2₁/c) with the following unit-cell parameters: a = 12.9169(2) ?, b = 11.9101(2) ?, c = 12.4951(2) ?, β = 108.484(1)°, V = 1823.10(5) ?³ and Z = 4. The supramolecular structure of (C₆H₁₄N₂)[Co(H₂O)₆](SeO₄)₂ consists of isolated [Co(H₂O)]²⁺ and (C₆H₁₄N₂)²⁺ cations and (SeO₄)²⁻ anions linked together by three dimensional hydrogen-bond network. The infrared spectroscopy confirmed the presence of these different entities. The thermal behaviour of the precursor, studied by thermodiffractometry and thermogravimetric analyses, indicates that its decomposition proceeds through three stages giving rise to the cobalt oxide.

Crystal structure and conductivity investigation of KDyP4O12: a new potassium dysprosium cyclotetraphosphate

A single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis has been performed on KDyP₄O₁₂ synthesized by a flux method. The new compound crystallizes at room temperature in the monoclinic space group C2/c with unit cell parameters: a=7.812(2) Å, b=12.318(3) Å, c=10.441(2) Å, β=111.09(2)°, V=937.42(4) Å³ and D_cal=3.66 g cm⁻³ for Z=4. A full-matrix least square refinement gave R₁=0.022, wR₂=0.04 for 2421 independent reflections (I>2σ(I)) refined with 84 parameters.The structure is built up from P₄O₁₂⁴⁻ cyclotetraphosphate anions linked by DyO₈ polyhedra to form a three-dimensional framework, which delimits intersecting oxygen tunnels in which the K⁺ ions are located. The atomic arrangement can be described as a succession of layers extending along the [010] direction. The P₄O₁₂⁴⁻ ring anion is centrosymmetrical is connected by irregularly shaped KO₁₀ polyhedra to form a layer structure parallel to (001). Dysprosium and potassium are surrounded by eight and ten oxygen atoms respectively.Samples have been examined by impedance and infrared spectroscopy techniques. The reported IR absorption investigation, recorded at room temperature in the frequency range 200-4000 cm⁻¹, shows some bands characteristic of cyclotetraphosphates.The electrical conductivity of KDyP₄O₁₂ has subsequently been measured as a function of temperature, it represents a significant ionic conductivity and activation energy (σ=2.15×10⁻⁴ Ω⁻¹cm⁻¹ at 453 K and E_a=0.387 eV) corresponding to the mobility of the K⁺ cations located within tunnels.     

The crystal structure, thermal behaviour and ionic conductivity of a novel lithium gadolinium polyphosphate LiGd(PO3)4

Crystal structure and ionic conductivity of lithium gadolinium polyphosphate, LiGd(PO₃)₄, were investigated. Single crystals of the title compound have been grown by a flux technique. The structure of this novel phosphate was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. LiGd(PO₃)₄ is isotypic with LiNd(PO₃)₄. It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with the unit cell parameters a=16.386(2), b=7.059(3), c=9.677(2) Å, β=126.12(1)°, V=904.2(4) Å³ and Z=4. The structure refined from 967 independent reflections leads to R₁=0.0167 and wR₂=0.0458. The lattice of LiGd(PO₃)₄ is built of twisted zig-zag chains running along with the b direction and make up of PO₄ tetrahedra sharing two corners, connected to the GdO₈ and LiO₄ polyhedra by common oxygen atoms to form a three-dimensional framework. Differential and thermogravimetric thermal analysis are given. The thermal curve of this compound was recorded and interpreted in agreement with impedance measurements. The ionic conductivity has been measured on pellet of the polycrystalline powder and evaluated as a function of temperature. This phase showed the conductivity of 2×10⁻⁶ and 2×10⁻⁴ Ω⁻¹ cm⁻¹ at 682 and 951 K, respectively.

Synthesis, DTA, IR and Raman spectra of penthylenediammonium hexachlorostannate NH3(CH2)5NH3SnCl6.

The Raman and IR spectra of NH3(CH2)5NH3SnCl6 have been measured at ambient temperature. It is shown that the cations in the compound assume a symmetry lower than C2v. Combination bands observed in the 2100-1800 cm(-1) region in the IR spectrum of NH3(CH2)5NH3SnCl6 indicate that the compound contains the C-NH3 grouping, the bands are discussed and their assignment are suggested. No evidence of existence of hydrogen bonding is found from the infrared spectrum in the region of 2800-3200 cm(-1); anions and cations are found not connected by hydrogen bonding and are therfore isolated. The Raman spectrum of anions can be interpreted in terms of disordered groups, not clearly showing the predicted splitting of bands.     

Structural, vibrational study and conductivity investigation of a new cesium–bismuth polyphosphate CsBi(PO3)4

Synthesis, a complete structural characterization by X-ray diffraction, IR-Raman, and conductivity investigation are given for cesium–bismuth polyphosphate CsBi(PO₃)₄. This compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system with a space group P2₁/n (structural type IV). The structure consists of a three-dimensional framework made up of spiral (PO₃)_n chains linked by BiO₈ polyhedra. Two infinite (PO₃)_n chains with a period of eight tetrahedra run along the [101] direction. The infrared and the Raman spectra show clearly some characteristic bands of infinite chain structures of PO₄ tetrahedra linked by bridge oxygen. The thermo-differential analysis shows two endothermic peaks at T₁?=?448 and T₂?=?919 K. No weight loss was observed in the (TGA) until the temperature 800 K. The conductivity measurements confirm the presence of a phase transition at 448 K accompanied by an important increasing of the conductivity of Cs⁺ cations and a significant decreasing of the activation energy.
