Abstract

The effects of proper drying and grinding of [Fe(Htrz)3](ClO4)2⋅1.85H2O specimens on the quality of X-ray powder patterns are illustrated (Htrz=1H-1,2,4-Triazole). A procedure is suggested to achieve high-quality, reproducible X-ray powder patterns of the compound. The observed powder diffraction data of the compound are reported together with preliminary indices calculated for a monoclinic system with cell parameters a=15.8160 Å, b=20.6134 Å, c=13.0321 Å, β=103.83° and Volume=4125.633 Å3, with reliability factors: M15=10.4, F15=22.0 (0.0100; 68) and space group P21/m. This compound is very similar to the compound [Cu(Hyetrz)3](ClO4)2⋅3H2O and a comparison is made between the cell parameters of the two compounds
