Flux Synthesis of Salt-Inclusion Uranyl Silicates: [K<sub>3</sub>Cs<sub>4</sub>F][(UO<sub>2</sub>)<sub>3</sub>(Si<sub>2</sub>O<sub>7</sub>)<sub>2</sub>] and [NaRb<sub>6</sub>F][(UO<sub>2</sub>)<sub>3</sub>(Si<sub>2</sub>O<sub>7</sub>)<sub>2</sub>]
收藏资源简介:
Two salt-inclusion uranyl silicates, [K3Cs4F][(UO2)3(Si2O7)2] (compound 1) and [NaRb6F][(UO2)3(Si2O7)2] (compound 2), have been synthesized at high temperature using mixtures of alkali metal fluorides as fluxes and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Both compounds contain UO6 tetragonal bipyramids linked by disilicate groups to form three-dimensional framework structures with identical framework composition but different framework structures and salt inclusions. Both structures contain elliptical 12-ring channels where the K2Cs4F and Rb6F units are located. They are the first examples of salt-inclusion uranium silicates. The frameworks of 1 and 2 are thermally stable up to 850 and 750 °C, as indicated from powder X-ray diffraction. The 19F and 29Si MAS NMR spectra and the second-harmonic-generation response of 1 are consistent with the crystal structure analysis results.
