Abstract

We report the first molecular charge transfer salt containing layers of Na+ within its lattice. From the crystal structure and from C=C and C-S bond lengths and Raman stretching frequencies we obtain a formula a′"-(BEDT-TTF)9[Fe(C2O4)3]8Na18(H2O)24. The structure consists of alternating layers of BEDT-TTF, and layers comprising [Fe(C2O4)3]3−, Na+ and H2O. The packing of the layers follows the sequence ABCDABCDA as previously seen in the compound β″-(BEDT-TTF)4[Fe(C2O4)3]2.C12O6H24.9HxO1.
