Preparation, characterization, and ab initio x-ray powder diffraction study of Cu{sub 2}(OH){sub 3}(CH{sub 3}COO){center_dot}H{sub 2}O
- Universita di Milano, Milan (Italy); and others
Cu{sub 2}(OH){sub 3}(CH{sub 3}COOO){center_dot}H{sub 2}O can be prepared by slow titration of 0.1 M copper acetate solution with NaOH 0.1 M to a OH{sup -}/Cu{sup 2+} ratio of 1 or by heating at 50 < T < 75{degree}C copper acetate solutions with concentrations in the range 0.01 M {le} [Cu{sup 2+}]{sub T} {le} 0.18 M. This species has been characterized by ab initio XRPD structure determination, magnetic susceptibility measurements, and spectroscopic (XPS-XAES, FTIR) and thermal analyses. Crystals of Cu{sub 2}(OH){sub 3}(CH{sub 3}COO){center_dot}H{sub 2}O are monoclinic, P2{sub 1}/m, a = 5.6025(5), b = 6.1120(6), c = 18.747(3) {angstrom} and {beta} = 91.012(9){degree}, Z = 4, Cu{sub 2}(OH){sub 3}(CH{sub 3}COO){center_dot}H{sub 2}O is a structural analogue of the layered mineral botallackite; however, hydrogen bonded water molecules, which can be easily and reversibly removed by moderate heating, are intercalated between Cu{sub 2}(OH){sub 3}(CH{sub 3}COO) sheets.
