Abstract: | On the Structure of Li8PbO6 For the first time single crystals of Li8PbO6 have been prepared by heating of mixtures of Na2PbO3 and Li2O Ag-cylinders, 650°C, 150 d]. The structure 382 I0(hkl), four circle diffractometer PW 1100, ω/2Θ-scan, MoKα, R = 3.07%, Rw = 3.00%, space group R3 ; a = 555.09(4), c = 1564.13(17) pm, Dx = 4.28 g · cm?3, Dpyk = 4.24 g · cm?3, Z = 3] is characterized by the motive of a hexagonal-closed O2? packing. Half of the octahedral sites are occupied by Pb4+ and Li+ and half of the tetrahedral sites only by Li+. The Madelung Part of Lattice Energy, MAPLE, and the Effective Coordination Numbers, ECoN, these via Mean Fictive Ionic Radii, MEFIR, are calculated. |
