Thermal dehydration and structural models of two new vanadyl sulfate hydrates
The preparation of a new modification of vanadyl sulfate trihydrate, VOSO 4 · 3H 2O, is described. In the course of its thermal dehydration, another new phase, VOSO 4 · 2H 2O, is observed as an intermediate. Crystal data for the two compounds are: VOSO 4 · 3H 2O, orthorhombic, a = 8.980 ± 0.006, b =...

Summary: | The preparation of a new modification of vanadyl sulfate trihydrate, VOSO
4 · 3H
2O, is described. In the course of its thermal dehydration, another new phase, VOSO
4 · 2H
2O, is observed as an intermediate. Crystal data for the two compounds are: VOSO
4 · 3H
2O, orthorhombic,
a = 8.980 ± 0.006,
b = 9.026 ± 0.009,
c = 7.776 ± 0.003 Å, space group

4 · 2H
2O, monoclinic,
a = 8.913 ± 0.027,
b = 8.93 ± 0.09,
c = 7.80 ± 0.06 Å, β = 92.4 ± 0.6°. From the topotaxy of the dehydration reaction, structural models for the two phases are deduced. They consist essentially of VOSO
4 layers similar to those in α-VOSO
4 and interlayer water. |
