Abstract: | <p> The crystal structure of k2SnBr6 has been reinvestigated using single crystal x-ray diffraction techniques. Three dimensional intensity data obtained photographically have been used to refine the structure, by the least square analysis. The structure is found to be slightly distorted from the regular cubic k2PtCl6 structure in a manner similar to K2TeBr6. The Sn-Br bond is found to be 2.601 A. </p> <p> The structure of k2SnBr6 is found to be monoclinic with space group P21/n and a = 7.435 ± 0.017 A, b= 7.437 ± 0.017 A, and c = 10.568 ± 0.006 A. </p> <p> A review of other crystals with similar structure is included in this thesis included the theory of x-ray diffraction and crystal structure as applicable to the present problem is discussed briefly. </p> |
