Abstract

Charmarite, Mn4Al2(OH)12CO3⋅3H2O, is a hydrotalcite supergroup member (or layered double hydroxide, LDH) with a previously unknown crystal structure and a Mn2+-analogue of quintinite (commonly erroneously reported as ‘2:1 hydrotalcite’). The single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) data were obtained from the specimen from Mont Saint-Hilaire, Québec, Canada and are best processed in the space group P$\bar{3}$Abstract Image, a = 10.9630(4), c = 15.0732(5) Å and V = 1568.89(12) Å3. The crystal structure has been solved by direct methods and refined to R1 = 0.0750 for 3801 unique reflections with Fo > 2σ(Fo). The charmarite structure has long-range periodicity in the xy plane due to $2\sqrt 3$Abstract Imagea’ × $2\sqrt 3$Abstract Imagea’ scheme (or 11 × 11 Å) determined for LDHs for the first time (where a’ is a subcell parameter ≈ 3.2 Å). This periodicity is produced by the combination of two superstructures formed by: (1) Mn2+ and Al3+ ordering in the metal-hydroxide layers [Mn4Al2(OH)12]2+ according to the $\sqrt 3$Abstract Imagea’ × $\sqrt 3$Abstract Imagea’ pattern and (2) the (CO3)2– ordering according to the 2a’ × 2a’ pattern in the [CO3(H2O)3]2– interlayer sheet in order to avoid close contacts between adjacent carbonate groups. The $2\sqrt 3$Abstract Imagea’ × $2\sqrt 3$Abstract Imagea’ superstructure is an example of the adaptability of the components of the interlayer space to the charge distribution of the metal-hydroxyl layers. The Mn2+ and Al3+ cations have a large difference in size, which apparently leads to the considerable degree of their order as di- and trivalent cations resulting in a higher degree of statistical order of the interlayer components. Both powder and single-crystal XRD data show that the samples studied belong to the hexagonal branch of two-layer polytypes (2T or 2H) with d00n ≈ 7.57 Å. The chemical composition of the samples studied is close to the ideal formula. The Raman spectrum of charmarite is reported and the band assignment is provided.

查理石的晶体结构--层状双氢氧化物中首个 11 × 11 Å 超结构网格的实例
Charmarite(Mn4Al2(OH)12CO3⋅3H2O)是一种水滑石超群成员(或层状双氢氧化物,LDH),其晶体结构以前不为人知,是一种 Mn2+-类似物(通常被错误地报道为 "2:1 水滑石")。单晶 X 射线衍射(XRD)数据取自加拿大魁北克省圣希莱尔山(Mont Saint-Hilaire)的标本,最佳空间群为 P$\bar{3}$,a = 10.9630(4),c = 15.0732(5) Å,V = 1568.89(12) Å3。该晶体结构已通过直接方法求解,并在 3801 次独特反射中精制为 R1 = 0.0750,Fo > 2σ(Fo)。由于首次为 LDHs 确定了 $2\sqrt 3$a' × $2\sqrt 3$a' 方案(或 11 × 11 Å)(其中 a' 为子晶胞参数 ≈ 3.2 Å),霞石结构在 xy 平面上具有长程周期性。这种周期性是由以下两种超结构组合而成的:(1) 金属氢氧化物层 [Mn4Al2(OH)12]2+ 中的 Mn2+ 和 Al3+ 按照 $\sqrt 3$a' × $\sqrt 3$a' 模式排序;以及 (2) [CO3(H2O)3]2- 层间薄片中的 (CO3)2- 按照 2a' × 2a' 模式排序,以避免相邻碳酸盐基团之间的紧密接触。2sqrt 3$a' × 2sqrt 3$a' 的上层结构是层间空间各组分适应金属羟基层电荷分布的一个例子。Mn2+ 和 Al3+ 阳离子的尺寸差异很大,这显然导致它们作为二价和三价阳离子的有序程度相当高,从而导致层间成分的统计有序程度较高。粉末和单晶 XRD 数据都表明,所研究的样品属于双层多晶型(2T 或 2H)的六方分支,d00n ≈ 7.57 Å。报告中还给出了查理石的拉曼光谱和波段赋值。
