Synthese,Kristallstruktur und festkörper‐NMR‐spektroskopische Untersuchung neuer Oxonitridosilicate der Mischkristallreihe Ba4−xCaxSi6N10O

The new oxonitridosilicates Ba_4?xCa_xSi₆N₁₀O have been synthesized by means of high‐temperature synthesis in a radio‐frequency furnace, starting from calcium, barium, silicon diimide and amorphous silicon dioxide. The maximum reaction temperature was at about 1450 °C. The solid solution series Ba_4?xCa_xSi₆N₁₀O with a phase width 1.81 ≤ x ≤ 2.95 was obtained. The crystal structure of Ba_1.8Ca_2.2Si₆N₁₀O was determined by X‐ray single‐crystal structure determination (P2₁3, no. 198), a = 1040.2(1) pm, Z = 4, wR2 = 0.082). It can be described as a highly condensed network of corner‐sharing SiN₄ and SiON₃ tetrahedra, the voids of which are occupied by the alkaline earth ions. The structure is isotypic with that of BaEu(Ba_0.5Eu_0.5)YbSi₆N₁₁. In the ²⁹Si solid‐state MAS‐NMR spectrum two isotropic resonances at ?50.0 and ?53.6 ppm were observed.
