Compounds in the Systems Potassium(Rubidium)/Gold/Antimony: K3Au3Sb2, Rb3Au3Sb2, and K1,74Rb0,26RbAu3Sb2Brittle, silver coloured single crystals of K3Au3Sb2, Rb3Au3Sb2 and K1,74Rb0,26RbAu3Sb2 were obtainded by reaction of the alkali metal azides (KN3, RbN3) with gold and antimon powder at 550°C. The structures of the isotypic compounds (R3m, Z = 3) were determined by X-ray single-crystal diffractometer data: K3Au3Sb2, a = 6,198(2) Å, c = 21,520(5) Å, R/Rw (w = 1) = 0,046/0,058, Z(F02) ≥ 3σ(F02) = 175, Z(Var.) = 14; Rb3Au3Sb2, a = 6,443(3), c = 21,69(2), R/Rw (w = 1) = 0,059/0,082, Z(F02) ≥ 3σ(F02) = 258, Z(Var.) = 14; K1,74Rb0,26RbAu3Sb2, a = 6,288(2) Å, c = 21,617(5) Å, R/Rw (w = 1) = 0,049/0,069, Z(F02) ≥ 3σ(F02) = 390, Z(Var) = 14. The compounds crystallize with the K3Cu3P2-structure type. The Au—Sb partial structures consist of ∞2[AuSb2/3] layers with linear Sb—Au—Sb dumb-bells and SbAu3 pyramids. The layers are separated by two crystallographically independent alkali metal atoms along [001].
Notes:
Spröde, silberfarbene Einkristalle von K3Au3Sb2, Rb3Au3Sb2 und K1,74Rb0,26RbAu3Sb2 wurden durch Reaktion der Alkalimetallazide (KN3, RbN3) mit Gold- und Antimonpulver bei 550°C erhalten. Die Strukturen der isotypen Verbindungen (R3m, Z = 3) wurden aus Einkristall-Röntgen-Diffraktometerdaten bestimmt: K3Au3Sb2, a = 6,198(2) Å, c = 21,520(5) Å, R/Rw (w = 1) = 0,046/0,058, Z(F02) ≥ 3σ(F02) = 175, Z(Var.) = 14; Rb3Au3Sb2, a = 6,443(3), c = 21,69(2), R/Rw (w = 1) = 0,059/0,082, Z(F02) ≥ 3σ(F02) = 258, Z(Var.) = 14; K1,74Rb0,26RbAu3Sb2, a = 6,288(2) Å, c = 21,617(5) Å, R/Rw (w = 1) = 0,049/0,069, Z(F02) ≥ 3σ(F02) = 390, Z(Var) = 14. Die Verbindungen kristallisieren im K3Cu3P2-Typ. Die Au—Sb-Teilstruktur besteht aus ∞2[AuSb2/3]-Schichten mit linearen Sb—Au—Sb-Hanteln und SbAu3-Pyramiden. Die Schichten werden längs [001] durch zwei kristallographisch unterschiedliche Alkalimetallatome separiert.
