Item Open Access Syntheses and patterns of changes in structural parameters of the new quaternary tellurides EuRECuTe3 (RE = Ho, Tm, and Sc) : experiment and theory(2024) Ruseikina, Anna V.; Grigoriev, Maxim V.; Locke, Ralf J. C.; Chernyshev, Vladimir A.; Schleid, ThomasThe layered orthorhombic quaternary tellurides EuRECuTe3 (RE = Ho, Tm, Sc) with Cmcm symmetry were first synthesized. Single crystals of the compounds up to 500 μm in size were obtained by the halide-flux method at 1120 K from elements taken in a ratio of Eu/RE/Cu/Te = 1:1:1:3. In the series of compounds, the changes in lattice parameters were in the ranges a = 4.3129(3)-4.2341(3) Å, b = 14.3150(9)-14.1562(9) Å, c = 11.2312(7)-10.8698(7) Å, V = 693.40(8)-651.52(7) Å3. In the structures, the cations Eu2+, RE3+ (RE = Ho, Tm, Sc), and Cu+ occupied independent crystallographic positions. The structures were built with distorted copper tetrahedra forming infinite chains [CuTe4]7− and octahedra [RETe6]9- forming two-dimensional layers along the a-axis. These coordination polyhedra formed parallel two-dimensional layers CuRETe32-∞2. Between the layers, along the a-axis, chains of europium trigonal prisms [EuTe6]10- were located. Regularities in the variation of structural parameters and the degree of distortion of coordination polyhedra depending on the ionic radius of the rare-earth metal in the compounds EuRECuCh3 (RE = Ho, Er, Tm, Lu, Sc; Ch = S, Se, Te) were established. It is shown that with a decrease in the ionic radius ri(RE3+) in the compounds EuRECuTe3, the unit-cell volume, bond length d(RE-Te), distortion degree [CuTe4]7-, and crystallographic compression of layers [RECuTe3]2- decreased. The distortion degree of tetrahedral polyhedra [CuCh4]7-, as well as the structural parameters in europium rare-earth copper tellurides EuRECuTe3, were higher than in isostructural quaternary chalcogenides. Ab initio calculations of the crystalline structure, phonon spectrum, and elastic properties of compounds EuRECuTe3 (RE = Ho, Tm, and Sc) ere conducted. The types and wave numbers of fundamental modes were determined, and the involvement of ions in IR and Raman modes was assessed. The calculated data of the crystal structure correlated well with the experimental results.Item Open Access On the thermal dimorphy of the strontium perrhenate Sr[ReO4]2(2024) Conrad, Maurice; Bette, Sebastian; Dinnebier, Robert E.; Schleid, ThomasHygroscopic single crystals of a new hexagonal high‐temperature modification of Sr[ReO4]2 were prepared from a melt of Sr[ReO4]2 ⋅ H2O and SrCl2 ⋅ 6 H2O. The structure analysis of the obtained crystals by X‐ray diffraction revealed that the title compound crystallizes in the ThCd[MoO4]3‐type structure with the hexagonal space group P63/m and the lattice parameters a=1023.81(7) pm and c=646.92(4) pm (c/a=0.632) for Z=2 in its quenchable high‐temperature form. Two crystallographically independent Sr2+ cations are coordinated by oxygen atoms forming either octahedra or tricapped trigonal prisms, whereas the Re7+ cations are found in the centers of discrete tetrahedral meta‐perrhenate units [ReO4]-. Temperature‐dependent in‐situ PXRD studies of dry powder samples of Sr[ReO4]2 exhibited its thermal dimorphy with a phase‐transition temperature at 500-550 °C from literature‐known m‐Sr[ReO4]2 into the newly discovered h‐Sr[ReO4]2 (hexagonal).Item Open Access Luminescence properties of Y3F[Si3O10]:Ln3+ (Ln = Eu, Tb, Er) with thalenite-type host lattice and crystal structure of Tm3F[Si3O10](2023) Schäfer, Marion C.; Petter, Michael; Hartenbach, Ingo; Locke, Ralf J. C.; Zhang, Shuang; Wickleder, Claudia; Schleid, ThomasWith Tm3F[Si3O10], a new representative of the Ln3F[Si3O10] series could be synthesized by the reaction of Tm2O3, TmF3 and SiO2 (molar ratio: 1:1:3), applying an excess of CsBr as a fluxing agent in gas-tightly sealed platinum crucibles for eight days at 750 °C, and designed to yield Tm3F3[Si3O9] or Cs2TmF[Si4O10]. Single crystals of Tm3F[Si3O10] (monoclinic, P21/n; a = 725.04(6), b = 1102.43(9), c = 1032.57(8) pm, β = 97.185(7)°; Z = 4) appear as pale celadon, transparent, air- and water-resistant rhombic plates. According to its thalenite-type structure, Tm3F[Si3O10] contains catena-trisilicate anions [Si3O10]8− and triangular [FTm3]8+ cations. The three crystallographically different Tm3+ cations are coordinated by seven plus one (Tm1) or only seven anions (Tm2 and Tm3) exhibiting a single F- anion for each polyhedron, additional to the majority of O2- anions. Furthermore, the luminescence properties of the isotypic colorless compound Y3F[Si3O10] doped with Eu3+ (red emission), Tb3+ (green emission) and Er3+ (yellow and infrared emission), respectively, are reported in presenting their different excitation and emission spectra.Item Open Access Synthesis, crystal structure and properties of the new laminar quaternary tellurides SrLnCuTe3 (Ln = Sm, Gd-Tm and Lu)(2023) Ruseikina, Anna V.; Grigoriev, Maxim V.; Molokeev, Maxim S.; Garmonov, Alexander A.; Elyshev, Andrey V.; Locke, Ralf J. C.; Schleid, ThomasThis paper reports for the first time on the new laminar quaternary orthorhombic heterometallic quaternary tellurides SrLnCuTe3, the fabrication of which has been a challenge until this work. Data on the crystal structure of tellurides complete the series of quaternary strontium chalcogenides SrLnCuCh3 (Ch = S, Se, Te). Single crystals of the compounds were synthesized from the elements by the halogenide-flux method at 1070 K. The compounds are crystallizing in two space groups Pnma (Ln = Sm, Gd and Tb) and Cmcm (Ln = Dy-Tm and Lu). For SrSmCuTe3 (a = 11.4592(7), b = 4.3706(3), c = 14.4425(9) Å, space group: Pnma) with the largest lanthanoid cation, Sr2+ shows C.N. = 7, whereas Sm3+ reveals a diminished coordination number C.N. = 6. For SrLuCuTe3 (a = 4.3064(3), b = 14.3879(9), c = 11.1408(7) Å, space group: Cmcm) with the smallest lanthanoid cation, coordination numbers of six are realized for both high-charged cations (Sr2+ and Lu3+: C.N. = 6). The cations Sr2+, Ln3+, Cu+ each take independent positions. The structures are built by distorted [CuTe4]7- tetrahedra, forming the infinite chains {∞1[Cu(Te1)1/1t(Te2)1/1t(Te3)2/2e]5−} along [010] in SrLnCuTe3 (Ln = Sm, Gd and Tb) and [100] in SrLnCuTe3 (Ln = Dy-Tm and Lu). The distortion of the polyhedra [CuTe4]7- was compared for the whole series SrLnCuTe3 by means of τ4-descriptor for the four coordinating Te2- anions, which revealed a decrease in the degree of distortion with a decreasing radius at Ln3+. The distorted octahedra [LnTe6]9- form layers {∞2[Ln(Te1)2/2(Te2)2/2(Te3)2/2]3−}. The distorted octahedra and tetrahedra fuse to form parallel layers {∞2[CuLnTe3]2−} and between them, the Sr2+ cations providing three-dimensionality of the structure are located. In the SrLnCuTe3 (Ln = Sm, Gd and Tb) structures, the Sr2+ cations center capped the trigonal prisms [SrTe6+1]12−, united in infinite chains {∞1[Sr(Te1)2/2(Te2)3/3(Te3)2/2]4−} along the [100] direction. The domains of existence of the Ba2MnS3, BaLaCuS3, Eu2CuS3 and KZrCuS3 structure types are defined in the series of orthorhombic chalcogenides SrLnCuCh3 (Ch = S, Se and Te). The tellurides SrLnCuTe3 (Ln = Tb-Er) of both structure types in the temperature range from 2 up to 300 K are paramagnetic, without showing clear signs of a magnetic phase transition.Item Open Access The first members of the monoclinic lanthanoid(III) fluoride oxoarsenate(III) series Ln2F2[As2O5] (Ln=La - Nd and Sm)(2025) Locke, Ralf J. C.; Zimmer, Frank C.; Schleid, ThomasIn synthesis experiments for the preparation of Ln5F3[AsO3]4 representatives in evacuated glassy silica ampoules at temperatures of maximum 825 °C, surprisingly compounds with the composition Ln2F2[As2O5] could be obtained and subsequently also reproduced on target. The new Ln2F2[As2O5] representatives with Ln = La - Nd and Sm crystallize needle‐shaped in the monoclinic space group P21/c with lattice parameters ranging from a = 793.24(5) pm, b = 1346.39(9) pm, c = 1359.41(9) pm and β = 106.932(3)° for La2F2[As2O5] to a = 769.11(5) pm, b = 1307.50(9) pm, c = 1328.74(9) pm and β = 106.819(3)° for Sm2F2[As2O5] with Z = 8. Their crystal structure can be broken down into two parts consisting of infinite [Ln2F2]4+ and discrete [As2O5]4− units. Three distinct kinds of fluoride anions are trigonally planar surrounded by lanthanoid cations and another one carries even a fourth of them in their coordination sphere with a secondary contact resulting in a distorted tetrahedron. These [FLn3]8+ and [FLn3+1]11+ building blocks share common corners and edges creating strands {[F2Ln2]4+}, which propagate along [100]. The four different As3+ lone‐pair cations form ψ1‐tetrahedra [AsO3]3− with three oxygen atoms and are conversurally linked pairwisely creating dinuclear pyroanionic [As2O5]4− units. These [As2O5]4− groups arrange themselves alternatingly along [100] with their lone pairs pointing into central empty channels. The {[F2Ln2]4+} strands are linked to the [As2O5]4− units via four distinguishable Ln3+ cations providing them coordination numbers of eight and nine. Raman spectroscopy confirmed that no (OH)− groups resulting from the synthesis were present apt to replace part of the F− and the stoichiometry Ln2F2[As2O5] was verified using WDXS elemental analyses.Item Open Access Two new members of the lanthanoid bismuth oxide oxidosilicates LnBiO[SiO4] with Ln=La and Gd(2023) Locke, Ralf J. C.; Haag, Tanja; Hartenbach, Ingo; Kurz, Melanie V.; Blaschkowski, Björn; Schleid, ThomasThe isostructural lanthanoid bismuth oxide oxidosilicates with the formula LnBiO[SiO4] (Ln=La and Gd) crystallize in the triclinic space group urn:x-wiley:00442313:media:zaac202300126:zaac202300126-math-0001 with the lattice parameters a=571.04(3) pm, b=681.13(4) pm, c=697.98(4) pm and α=105.805(2)°, β=110.456(2)°, γ=99.871(2)°, Vuc=0.23380(2) nm3 for Ln=La and a=554.12(3) pm, b=670.68(4) pm, c=689.57(4) pm and α=104.619(2)°, β=110.793(2)°, γ=99.560(2)°, Vuc=0.22237(2) nm3 for Ln=Gd with Z=2 for both. Colorless single crystals were serendipitously obtained from the reaction of bismuth sesquioxide, bismuth trifluoride and the lanthanoid sesquioxides at 850 °C in unprotected torch-sealed silica ampoules as SiO2 source. Their crystal structure features Ln3+ cations surrounded by eight oxygen atoms as distorted square antiprisms [LnO8]13−, which are linked via edges with three further polyhedra of this kind to form layers urn:x wiley:00442313:media:zaac202300126:zaac202300126-math-0002 {[LnOurn:x-wiley:00442313:media:zaac202300126:zaac202300126-math-0003 Ourn:x-wiley:00442313:media:zaac202300126:zaac202300126-math-0004 ]7-} within the (010) plane. The oxygen environment of the Bi3+ cations has to be described as ψ1-octahedral (square pyramids [BiO5]7−) with five oxide ligands and the stereochemically active lone pair. Two of them are edge-linked to form ψ1-bioctahedra [Bi2O8]10−. Four out of five oxygen atoms belong to discrete [SiO4]4− tetrahedra, which separate urn:x-wiley:00442313:media:zaac202300126:zaac202300126-math-0005 {[OLnurn:x wiley:00442313:media:zaac202300126:zaac202300126-math-0006 Biurn:x wiley:00442313:media:zaac202300126:zaac202300126-math-0007 ]4+} chains of trans-edge connected [OLn2Bi4]10+ tetrahedral, centered by the fifth oxygen atom propagating along [100] for charge compensation. Furthermore, the magnetic properties of GdBiO[SiO4] were investigated, showing Curie-Weiss behavior without any magnetic ordering phenomena down to lowest temperatures.Item Open Access Sulfur‐composites derived from poly(acrylonitrile) and poly(vinylacetylene) : a comparative study on the role of pyridinic and thioamidic nitrogen(2023) Kappler, Julian; Klostermann, Sina V.; Lange, Pia L.; Dyballa, Michael; Veith, Lothar; Schleid, Thomas; Weil, Tanja; Kästner, Johannes; Buchmeiser, Michael R.Sulfurized poly(acrylonitrile) (SPAN) is a prominent example of a highly cycle stable and rate capable sulfur/polymer composite, which is solely based on covalently bound sulfur. However, so far no in‐depth study on the influence of nitrogen in the carbonaceous backbone, to which sulfur in the form of thioketones and poly(sulfides) is attached, exists. Herein, we investigated the role of nitrogen by comparing sulfur/polymer composites derived from nitrogen‐containing poly(acrylonitrile) (PAN) and nitrogen‐free poly(vinylacetylene) (PVac). Results strongly indicate the importance of a nitrogen‐rich, aromatic carbon backbone to ensure full addressability of the polymer‐bound sulfur and its reversible binding to the aromatic backbone, even at high current rates. This study also presents key structures, which are crucial for highly cycle and rate stable S‐composites.Item Open Access On the rubidium thiotellurate(IV) Rb2[TeS3] and its tritohydrate Rb2[TeS3] ⋅ 1/3 H2O(2024) Wolff, Klaus K.; Pfitzner, Arno; Schleid, ThomasRb2[TeS3] and Rb2[TeS3] ⋅ 1/3 H2O were obtained from rubidium azide (RbN3), tellurium and sulfur in 2 : 1 : 3 molar ratios from evacuated fused silica ampoules at 500 °C under more or less anhydrous conditions. Both compounds crystallize orthorhombically in the space group P212121 (Rb2[TeS3]: a=873.42(6) pm, b=1316.73(9) pm, c=2064.59(14) pm; Rb2[TeS3] ⋅ 1/3 H2O: a=872.97(6) pm, b=1299.82(9) pm, c=2148.26(15) pm, both at -173 °C for Z =12) and contain discrete ψ1‐tetrahedral [TeS3]2- anions (d(Te-S)=232-236 pm) in layerwise arrangements. The difference results from the water of hydration in Rb2[TeS3] ⋅ 1/3 H2O, which increases the coordination numbers of half of the six crystallographically distinct Rb+ cations from six and seven (only sulfur) to seven and almost eight by providing with oxygen from H2O an extra ligand (d(Rb-O)=290-318 pm). Red Rb2[TeS3] transforms pseudo‐topotactically into yellow Rb2[TeS3] ⋅ 1/3 H2O immediately upon contact with moist atmosphere. The compounds were screened with X‐ray diffraction, Raman and diffuse reflectance spectroscopy as well as thermal analysis.Item Open Access Ba7C2Al2O9 : a barium oxide carbide oxoaluminate with the structured formula Ba7O[C2][AlO4]2(2025) Reckeweg, Olaf; Lissner, Falk; Locke, Ralf J. C.; Schleid, ThomasThe mixed‐anionic barium compound Ba7O[C2][AlO4]2 is obtained by serendipity via a high‐temperature synthesis route designed to yield “Ba5[AlC2]2”. Its new crystal structure is determined from X‐ray diffraction data of selected single crystals exhibiting the orthorhombic space group Pnma with the lattice parameters a = 2264.21(16), b = 597.08(4), and c = 1114.67(8) pm for Z = 4. Isolated [AlO4]5- tetrahedra alongside O2- and [C2]2- anions provide appropriate coordination spheres for the seven crystallographically independent Ba2+ cations with C.N. = 7-9. These structural elements and their incremental volumes are compared to those of related compounds. Irregular [OBa5+1]10+ octahedra and ([C2]Ba5+2)12+ polyhedra complete the crystal structure of Ba7O[C2][AlO4]2, whose most covalent features (ortho‐oxoaluminate tetrahedra [AlO4]5- and acetylide dumbbells -[C≡C]-) can also be identified unambiguously by single‐crystal Raman spectroscopy.Item Open Access Y5F3[AsO3]4 and Y5Cl3[AsO3]4 : two non-isostructural yttrium halide oxoarsenates(III) and their potential as hosts for luminescent Eu3+- and Tb3+-doping(2025) Locke, Ralf J. C.; Mikuta, Martina; Ledderboge, Florian; Zimmer, Frank C.; Höppe, Henning A.; Schleid, ThomasY5F3[AsO3]4 crystallizes needle-shaped in the tetragonal space group P4/ncc with the lattice parameters a = 1143.80(8) pm, c = 1078.41(7) pm and c/a = 0.9428 for Z = 4. The yttrium-fluoride substructure linked via secondary contacts forms a three-dimensional network 3∞{[Y5F3]12+} and the remaining part consists of ψ1-tetrahedral [AsO3]3- units, which leave lone-pair channels along [001]. In contrast, platelet-shaped Y5Cl3[AsO3]4 crystals adopt the monoclinic space group C2/c with the lattice parameters a = 1860.56(9) pm, b = 536.27(3) pm, c = 1639.04(8) pm and β = 105.739(3)° for Z = 4. Condensation of [(Y1,2)O8]13- polyhedra via four common edges each leads to fluorite-like 2∞ {[(Y1,2)Oe8/2]5-} layers spreading out parallel to the (100) plane. Their three-dimensional linkage occurs via the (Y3)3+ cations with their Cl- ligands on the one hand and the As3+ cations with their lone-pairs of electrons on the other, which also form within [AsO3]3- anions lone-pair channels along [010]. Both colorless compounds can be obtained by solid-state reactions from corresponding mixtures of the binaries (Y2O3, As2O3 and YX3 with X = F and Cl) at elevated temperatures of 825 °C, most advantageously under halide-flux assistance (CsBr for Y5F3[AsO3]4 and ZnCl2 for Y5Cl3[AsO3]4). By replacing a few percent of YX3 with EuX3 or TbX3, Eu3+- or Tb3+-doped samples are accessible, which show red or green luminescence upon excitation with ultraviolet radiation.
