AbstractAlstonite, BaCa(CO3)2, is a mineral described almost two centuries ago. It is widespread in Nature and forms magnificent cm-sized crystals. Notwithstanding, its crystal structure was still unknown. Here, we report the crystal-structure determination of the mineral and discuss it in relationship to other polymorphs of BaCa(CO3)2. Alstonite is trigonal, space group P31m, with unit-cell parameters a = 17.4360(6), c = 6.1295(2) Å, V = 1613.80(9) Å3 and Z = 12. The crystal structure was solved and refined to R1 = 0.0727 on the basis of 4515 reflections with Fo > 4σ(Fo) and 195 refined parameters. Alstonite is formed by the alternation, along c, of Ba-dominant and Ca-dominant layers, separated by CO3 groups parallel to {0001}. The main take-home message is to show that not all structure determinations of minerals/compounds can be solved routinely. Some crystals, even large ones displaying excellent diffraction quality, can be twinned in complex ways, thus making their study a crystallographic challenge.

Colourless single crystals of the title compound are obtained from a saturated solution of NaOSiPh3 in toluene in a humid atmosphere. We have characterized [Na4(OSiPh3)H2O)3] by IR spectroscopy and by a crystal structure determination. Space group R3, Z = 6 , R = 0.056. Lattice dimensions at -70°C: a = b = 1540.3 pm, c = 2639.6 pm. The compound has the structure of a Na4O4 heterocubane which is only slighty distorted and in which one of the sodium atoms is not hydrated and shows coordination number three.

Blue moisture sensitive single crystals of [YbCl2(THF)5]+[WOCl4(THF)]- were obtained as a by-product from the reaction of the ytterbium trisamide Yb[N(SiMe3)2]3 with tungsten hexachloride in THF solution. The crystals were suitable for an X-ray crystal structure determination. Space group P2/c, Z = 2, lattice dimensions at -80 °C: a = 1192.5(1), b = 1117.1(1), c = 1349.9(1) pm, ß = 104.115(7)°, R = 0.0424. The structure consists of cations [YbCl2(THF)5]+ in which the ytterbium atom is coordinated in a pentagonalbipyramidal way by the chlorine atoms in the axial positions and by the oxygen atoms of the THF molecules in equatorial positions. Counterions are the well-known [WOCl4(THF)]- ions.

During attempts to synthesize a high-pressure phase of KSr4(BO3)3 using pressures of up to 12 GPa, single crystals of the normal-pressure phase KSr4(BO3)3 with sufficient quality for singlecrystal diffraction experiments could be obtained at 3 GPa and 1300 °C in a Walker-type multianvil apparatus. The single-crystal structure determination verified the published powder diffraction data of KSr4(BO3)3 revealing the non-centrosymmetric space group Ama2 with a = 1104:8(2), b=1199:1(2), c=688:8(2) pm and Z =4. Additionally, IR- and Raman-spectroscopic investigations were performed on single crystals of the compound.

AbstractThe crystal structure of NH4[C(CN)3] has been determined via X-ray single-crystal methods at 203(2) K corroborating earlier results. Additionally, the hydrogen positions have been determined and the Raman spectrum of the title compound recorded on single crystals. The spectroscopic results are compared to those for related compounds.
