Abstract: | X-ray diffraction experiments have been used to determine the structure of cesium methylsulfonate (CsCH₃SO₃), lithium hydrazinium sulfate (LiN₂H₅SO₄), above 160ºC and triclinic potassium dichromate (K₂Cr₂O₇). The solved CsCH₃SO₃ structure is compared with BaSO₄ and the CsCH₃SO₃⁻¹ ion stereochemistry is dicussed in terms of a current theory of bonding for such groups. The previously known structure of room temperature ferroelectric LiN₂H₅SO₄ has recieved additional refinement and a comparison is made with the structure determined above 160ºC. The symmetry and structure found for K₂Cr₂O₇ are compared with similar compounds and predictions are given for the yet unsolved structures of other K₂Cr₂O₇ phases. The first accurate data for the Cr₂O₇⁻² ion stereochemistry is presented. This ion is compared to similar ones, and the possibility of extending a bonding theory to such ions involving chromium is discussed. |
