Ammonothermal Synthesis and Characterization of Cs2[Zn(NH2)4]

Cs2[Zn(NH2)4] was synthesized under ammonothermal conditions (sc‐NH3, 523 K, 155 MPa) from CsNH2 and Zn. Growth of cm‐sized crystals succeeded upon application of a temperature gradient. The crystal structure is based on the motif of a hexagonal closed packing of [Zn(NH2)4]2– ions with occurrence of...

Description
Summary:	Cs2[Zn(NH2)4] was synthesized under ammonothermal conditions (sc‐NH3, 523 K, 155 MPa) from CsNH2 and Zn. Growth of cm‐sized crystals succeeded upon application of a temperature gradient. The crystal structure is based on the motif of a hexagonal closed packing of [Zn(NH2)4]2– ions with occurrence of no significant hydrogen bridges according to distances and vibrational spectroscopy. Cs+ ions are located within octahedral and tetrahedral holes of the packing.
