Redetermination of the crystal structure of tetra-lithium octa-fluorido-zirconate(IV), Li₄ZrF₈, from single-crystal X-ray data.

ABSTRACT: Presented herein is the crystal-structure redetermination of Li₄ZrF₈ from single-crystal X-ray data. Alkali zirconium fluorides are important in nuclear-relevant technologies, and zirconium is commonly employed as an analogue for tetra-valent f-block elements. The previous structure report of this species is based on powder X-ray data [Dugat et al. (1995 ?). J. Solid State Chem. 120, 187-196] but there has never been a refined structure model from single-crystal data. The octa-fluorido-zirconate moieties are held together by electrostatic attraction to lithium ions without sharing of fluoride sites between zirconium(IV) ions.

Redetermination of the crystal structure of 3,5-di-methyl-pyrazolium ?-octa-molybdate tetra-hydrate.

Project description:The title compound, (C5H9N2)4[Mo8O26]·4H2O, was reported previously from a room-temperature data collection from which only the metal atoms could be refined anisotropically [FitzRoy et al. (1989 ?). Inorg. Chim. Acta, 157, 187-194]. The current redetermination at 180?(2)?K models all the non-H atoms with anisotropic displacement parameters and fully describes the supra-molecular N-H?O and O-H?O hydrogen-bonded network connecting the 3,5-di-methyl-pyrazolium cations, the water mol-ecules of crystallization and the ?-octa-molybdate anion. All H atoms involved in the three-dimensional hydrogen-bonding network could be located from difference Fourier maps, with the exception of those of one disordered water mol-ecule, firstly seen in this structural report [refined over two distinct locations with site-occupancy factors of 0.65?(2) and 0.35?(2)]. The complete ?-octa-molybdate anion is generated by a crystallographic inversion centre.

Crystal structure of bis-(propane-1,3-diaminium) hexa-fluorido-aluminate di-aqua-tetra-fluorido-aluminate tetra-hydrate.

Project description:The title compound, (C3H12N2)2[AlF6][AlF4(H2O)2]·4H2O, was obtained by a solvothermal method in ethanol as solvent and with aluminium hydroxide, HF and 1,3-di-amino-propane as educts. The asymmetric unit contains a quarter each of two crystallographically independent propane-1,3-di-ammonium dicat-ions, [AlF6](3-) and [AlF4(H2O)2](-) anions and four water mol-ecules. The cations, anions and three of the independent water mol-ecules are situated on special positions mm, while the fourth water mol-ecule is disordered about a mirror plane. In the crystal, inter-molecular N-H?F and O-H?F hydrogen bonds link the cations and anions into a three-dimensional framework with the voids filled by water mol-ecules, which generate O-H?O hydrogen bonds and further consolidate the packing.

Project description:The title compound, [SnCl4(H2O)2]·6H2O, was crystallized according to the solid-liquid phase diagram at lower temperatures. It is built-up of SnCl4(H2O)2 octa-hedral units (point group symmetry 2) and lattice water mol-ecules. An intricate three-dimensional network of O-H?O and O-H?Cl hydrogen bonds between the complex molecules and the lattice water molecules is formed in the crystal structure.

Redetermination of tetra-kis(N,N-diethyl-dithio-carbamato)tin(IV).

Project description:The crystal structure of the title compound, [Sn(C(5)H(10)NS(2))(4)], was originally determined by Harreld & Schlemper [Acta Cryst. (1971), B27, 1964-1969] using intensity data estimated from Weissenberg films. In comparison with the previous refinement, the current redetermination reveals anisotropic displacement parameters for all non-H atoms, localization of the H atoms, and higher precision of lattice parameters and inter-atomic distances. The complex features a distorted S(6) octa-hedral coordination geometry for tin and a cis disposition of the monodentate dithio-carbamate ligands.

Redetermination of cyclo-tetra-kis-(μ-5,10,15,20-tetra-4-pyridyl-porphyrinato)tetra-zinc(II) dimethyl-formamide octa-solvate trihydrate at 100 K.

Project description:The structure of the title compound, [Zn(4)(C(40)H(24)N(8))(4)]·8C(3)H(7)NO·3H(2)O, has been redetermined at 100 K. The redetermination is of significantly higher precision and gives further insight into the disorder of pyridyl groups and solvent mol-ecules. The mol-ecules of (5,10,15,20-tetra-4-pyridyl-porphyrinato)zinc(II) (ZnTPyP) form homomolecular cyclic tetra-mers by coordination of a peripheral pyridyl group to the central Zn atom of an adjacent symmetry-related mol-ecule. The tetra-mer so formed exhibits mol-ecular S(4) symmetry and is located about a crystallographic fourfold rotoinversion axis. Severely disordered dimethyl-formamide and water mol-ecules are present in the crystal, the contributions of which were omitted from refinement. Inter-molecular C-H⋯N hydrogen bonding is observed.

Bis(2,4,6-triamino-1,3,5-triazin-1-ium) tris-(pyridine-2,6-dicarboxyl-ato)-zirconate(IV) tetra-hydrate.

Project description:The title compound, (C(3)H(7)N(6))(2)[Zr(C(7)H(3)NO(4))(3)]·4H(2)O or (tataH)(2)[Zr(pydc)(3)]·4H(2)O (tata is 2,4,6-triamino-1,3,5-triazine and pydcH(2) is pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid), was obtained by reaction between pydcH(2), tata and zirconyl chloride octa-hydrate in aqueous solution. In the structure, the Zr(IV )atom is nine-coordinated by three (pydc)(2-) groups, resulting in an anionic complex which is balanced by two (tataH)(+) cations. One of the NH(2) groups shows positional disorder, with site occupation factors of 0.60 and 0.40. There are four uncoordinated water mol-ecules (one of which is disordered with occupation factors of 0.70 and 0.30) in the crystal structure. Several inter-molecular inter-actions, including O-H?O, O-H?N, N-H?O, N-H?N, C-H?O and C-H?N hydrogen bonds, a C-O?? inter-action [O?Cg 3.89, C?Cg 4.068?(3)?Å; C-O?Cg 89° where Cg is the centroid of the triamine ring], and ?-? stacking [with centroid-centroid distances of 3.694?(2) and 3.802?(2)?Å] are also present.

Lithium diffusion in Li5FeO4.

Project description:The anti-fluorite type Li5FeO4 has attracted significant interest as a potential cathode material for Li ion batteries due to its high Li content and electrochemical performance. Atomic scale simulation techniques have been employed to study the defects and Li ion migration in Li5FeO4. The calculations suggest that the most favorable intrinsic defect type is calculated to be the cation anti-site defect, in which Li+ and Fe3+ ions exchange positions. Li Frenkel is also found to be lower in this material (0.85?eV/defect). Long range lithium diffusion paths were constructed in Li5FeO4 and it is confirmed that the lower migration paths are three dimensional with the lowest activation energy of migration at 0.45?eV. Here we show that doping by Si on the Fe site is energetically favourable and an efficient way to introduce a high concentration of lithium vacancies. The introduction of Si increases the migration energy barrier of Li in the vicinity of the dopant to 0.59?eV. Nevertheless, the introduction of Si is positive for the diffusivity as the migration energy barrier increase is lower less than that of the lithium Frenkel process, therefore the activation energy of Li diffusion.

Crystal structure of μ-fluorido-bis-{(η(4)-cyclo-octa-diene)[hexa-fluorido-anti-monato(V)]platinum(II)} hexa-fluorido-anti-monate(V) hydrogen fluoride 0.75-solvate.

Project description:In the complex cation of the binuclear solvated title salt, [Pt2F(SbF6)2(C8H12)2]SbF6·0.75HF, an F atom bridges the two platinum(II) atoms with a bond angle of 123.3 (2)°. The corresponding Pt-F bond lengths are in the range of other fluorine-bridged binuclear platinum(II) complexes. Two of the three SbF6 (-) anions each coordinate with one F atom to one platinum(II) atom. Including the η(4)-bound cyclo-octa-diene (COD) ligands, the overall coordination sphere of each platinum(II) atom is square-planar. The third SbF6 (-) anion is not bound to the complex. Hydrogen fluoride is present in the crystal structure as a solvent disordered over three positions, each with an occupancy of 0.25. F⋯F distances of 2.5512 (7), 2.6076 (8) and 3.2215 (10) Å to surrounding SbF6 (-) anions are indicative of F-H⋯F hydrogen-bonding inter-actions although no H atoms could be localized for the disordered solvent mol-ecules. The resulting hydrogen-bonded network is three-dimensional.
