Abstract

The crystal structures of some nickel hexacyanoferrates (II, III), including mixed compositions containing Na+, K+ and Cs+, were resolved and refined from XRD powder patterns. Data from infrared, Mössbauer and adsorption techniques provided complementary structural information. The crystal structures of Ni3[Fe(CN)6]2⋅16H2O and NiCs2[Fe(CN)6] were refined in space group Fm3m. NiNa2[Fe(CN)6]⋅2H2O and NiK2[Fe(CN)6]⋅2H2O were found to be orthorhombic (space group Pmn21). This structure (Pmn21) results from a distortion around the alkali ion, which appears as a monohydrated interstitial species. On ionic exchange in an aqueous solution containing Cs+, the orthorhombic distortion disappears and the cubic cell is obtained. Cs+ is a large cation and space is not available for interstitial water molecules. This orthorhombic model is also supported by the Mössbauer spectra of the ferrous analogs, FeK2[Fe(CN)6]⋅xH2O and Fe[Pt(CN)6]. © 2004 International Centre for Diffraction Data.
