AC conductivity and dielectric studies of (C5H10N)2BiCl5 compound

The bis (3-dimethylammonium-1-propyne) pentachlorobismuthate (III) exhibits a structural phase transition at T₁?=?(337?±?2?K), which has been characterized by differential scanning calorimetric, X-ray powder analysis, AC conductivity and dielectric measurements. The dielectric dispersion yielded the real and imaginary parts of impedance of (C₅H₁₀N)₂BiCl₅ in the form of a semicircle in a complex plane. Besides, a Cole?CCole plot was observed at frequencies ranging from 209?Hz to 5?MHz, whose result was found to fit the theoretical resistor?Ccapacitor parallel circuit model. The temperature dependence of the electrical conductivity in the different phases follows the Arrhenius law. The frequency-dependent conductivity data were fitted in the modified power law: $ \sigma = {\sigma_{dc}} + {B_1}(T){\omega^{{s_1}}} + {B_2}(T){\omega^{{s_2}}} $ . The imaginary part of the permittivity constant is analyzed with the Cole?CCole formalism. With regard to the modulus plot, it can be characterized by full width at half height or in terms of a non-exponential decay function $ \phi (t) = \exp {\left( {\frac{{ - t}}{{{\tau_\sigma }}}} \right)^\beta } $ . Besides, the activation energy responsible for relaxation has been evaluated and found to be close the DC conductivity.     

Crystal structure of tris (phenylammonium) chloride pentachloroantimonate (III) monohydrate

The tris (phenylammonium) chloride pentachloroantimonate (III) monohydrate salt is triclinic with the following cell parameters: a = 9.4283(3), b = 11.4482(3), c = 13.1748(3)Å, = 113.493(2), = 90.381(2), = 97.331(1)°, V = 1290.86(6)ų, with Z = 2 formula units. The structure consists of [C₆H₅NH₃]⁺ cations, water molecules, Cl^– anions, and SbCl₅ square pyramids. Hydrogen bonds, established through water molecule, link the anions [SbCl₅]^2– and Cl^– and make an infinite chain in the [011] direction. Chains are linked together via another hydrogen bond network originating from the ammonium groups. A distortion of the SbCl₅ square pyramid can be attributed to the stereo activity of the Sb(III) lone electron pair.     

Crystal structure of triethylentetraammonium bis monohydrogenmonophosphate dihydrate, [NH3(CH2)2NH2(CH2)2NH2(CH2)2NH3](HPO4)2 · 2H2O

Crystal structure of di(N-benzyl piperidinium) pentachloroantimonate(III) dihydrate

The salt di(N-benzyl piperidinium) pentachloroantimonate(III) dihydrate crystallizes in the orthorhombic system with space group Cmc2₁, the unit cell dimensions are: a = 29.383(1), b = 10.509(2), c = 9.941(1) Å, with Z = 8. The structure shows a layer arrangement perpendicular to the a axis: planes of SbCl₆ octahedra alternate with planes of [C₁₂H₁₇N]⁺ cations. The SbCl₆ octahedra are connected through a O(W)–HCl hydrogen bonds and a chlorine bridge, so that infinite unidimensional chains of composition [SbCl₅(H₂O)₂]^2n– _n are formed in the structure along the c direction. These chains are connected to [C₁₂H₁₇N]⁺ entities by N–HCl and N–HO(W) hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network. It was found that lengths of Sb–Cl bonds may differ from each other. The differences shown as a distortion of the SbCl₆ octahedra were attributed to the Sb(III) lone electron pair stereoactivity.     

Synthesis, crystal structure, thermal and dielectric properties of bis(p-phenylenediammonium) chloride hexachlorobismuthate(III) monohydrate [C6H4(NH3)2]2ClBiCl6.H2O

Synthesis, crystal structure, and dielectric properties of [C₆H₄(NH₃)₂]₂ClBiCl₆.H₂O are reported. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system with space group P2₁/n. The unit cell dimensions are a = 9.836(5), b = 19.582(5), c = 13.082(5) ?, β = 104.731(5)° with Z = 4. The atomic arrangement can be described by an alternation of organic and inorganic layers. The anionic layer is built up of octahedral of [BiCl₆]^3- arranged in sandwich between the organic layers. The crystal packing is governed by means of the ionic N–H···Cl hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network. The dielectric properties have been investigated at temperature range from 297 to 410 K at various frequencies (10 Hz–100 kHz). Dielectric studies were performed to confirm results obtained with thermal analysis. The evolution of dielectric constant as a function of temperature and frequency of single crystal has been investigated in order to determine some related parameters.     

α- to β-[C6H4(NH3)2]2Bi2I10 reversible solid-state transition, thermochromic and optical studies in the p-phenylenediamine-based iodobismuthate(III) material

α-[C₆H₄(NH₃)₂]₂Bi₂I₁₀, which is a new material containing low-dimensional iodobismuthate anions, was synthesized and through its single crystal X-ray diffraction measurements, was proven to crystallize at room temperature in the centrosymmetric space group P2₁/c. It consists of a p-phenylenediammonium dication and a discrete (0-D) anion built up of edge-sharing bioctahedron. Due to the hydrogen bonds and the interatomic distances (Bi-I, I?I and π-π) changes, α-phase was transformed into the corresponding centrosymmetric β-phase, β-[C₆H₄(NH₃)₂]₂Bi₂I₁₀, through a single-crystal to single-crystal transformation occurring upon cooling to −28/−26 °C. Below the transition temperature, β-[C₆H₄(NH₃)₂]₂Bi₂I₁₀ crystallizes in the monoclinic system, centrosymmetric space group P2₁/n. Besides, the optical transmission measurements on α-[C₆H₄(NH₃)₂]₂Bi₂I₁₀ thin films have revealed two absorption bands at 2.47 and 3.01 eV. Finally, two room temperature photoluminescence emissions attributed to excitons radiative recombinations confined within the bioctahedra Bi₂I₁₀⁴⁻, were observed in the red spectral range at 1.9 and 2.05 eV energy.
