On Copper‐tetrahydrogen‐decaoxo‐diperiodate‐hexahydrate CuH₄I₂O₁₀·6H₂O: Crystal Structure, Vibrational Spectroscopy and Thermal Analysis By crystallization from a strongly acidic aqueous solution copper‐tetrahydrogen‐decaoxodiperiodate‐hexahydrate CuH₄I₂O₁₀· 6H₂O has been obtained. In the structure of this compound (S.G. P 2₁/c, Nr.14), Z = 2, a = 1060.2(2) pm, b = 551.1(1) pm, c = 1164.7(2) pm, β = 111, 49(3)°) centrosymmetric H₄I₂O₁₀]^2— anions in the form of two edge sharing octahedra form layers via hydrogen bonds originating from the acidic, trans‐configurated OH groups of the anions. Raman spectra are given and analyzed with respect to the internal vibrations of the periodate anion. The dehydration of the compound takes place via CuH₄I₂O₁₀·3H₂O and Cu(H₂IO₅)₂ which decomposes at 170 °C to Cu(IO₃)₂.
