Abstract:The structural changes that accompany the dehydration of Na 2 PtX 6 •6H 2 O (X = Cl, Br) were studied using in situ variable temperature synchrotron X-ray diffraction. The two hexahydrates are isostructural, containing isolated PtX 6 octahedra separated by Na cations. Removal of the water results in the formation of the anhydrous vacancy ordered double perovskites Na 2 PtX 6 . The Na cation is too small for the cuboctahedron site of the parent cubic structure, resulting in cooperative tilting of the PtX 6 octa… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
