Abstract

Basic tellurium nitrate crystallizes in the space group Pnma witha=14.607 (1),b=8.801 (1), andc=4.4633 (4) Å. Full-matrix least-squares refinement of automatic diffractometer data converged to a residualR=0.036 (R w =0.046) for 899 independent reflections. A detailed analysis of the structural data leads us to reformulate this compound as (Te2O4H)+(NO3) with a basic structural element consisting of a charged two-dimensional puckered Te2O4H+ network with discrete NO3 anions, an example of apositively-charged network structure.

Zusammenfassung

Basisches Telluriumnitrat kristallisiert in der Raumgruppe Pnma mita=14,607 (1),b=8,801 (1) undc=4,4633 (4) Å. Die verfeinernde Auswertung der Diffraktometerdaten konvergierte zuR=0,036 (R w =0.046) für 899 unabhängige Reflexe. Eine detaillierte Analyse der Strukturdaten führte zu einer Umformulierung dieser Verbindung als (Te2O4H)+(NO3), wobei die Basisstruktur aus einem geladenen, zweidimensionalen, gefalteten Te2O4H+ Netzwerk mit getrennten NO3 Anionen besteht. Es stellt dies ein Beispiel einerpositiv geladenen Netzstruktur dar.
