| Abstract: | Synthesis and Crystal Structure of NaBi2AuO5 NaBi2AuO5 was obtained by hydrothermal reaction of ‘Bi2O5’, Au2O3 · 2H2O and saturated aqueous NaOH solution at temperatures from 300 to 600°C and oxygen pressure from 3 × 108 to 6 × 108 Pa for the first time. The crystal structure (P4 b2; a = 1 220.02(6) pm; b = 386.68(3) pm; Z = 4; Rw = 0.022) consists of bisphenoidic distorted AuO4 groups, which are stacked in c-direction. They are connected by square pyramidal BiO5 units. Sodium is occupying holes within the Au/Bi/O framework thus formed. |
