Abstract
Three new ternary selenidostannates [DBNH][M1/2Sn 1/2Se2] (M = Mn (1), Zn (2), Hg (3); DBN = 1,5-diazabicyclo[4.3.0]non-5-ene) have been synthesized under solvothermal condition. Single crystal X-ray analyses reveal that compounds 1-3 crystallize in the tetragonal space group P42/ncm. The structures of 1-3 feature a similar straight one-dimensional [M1/2Sn1/2Se 2]nn- chain, which is built up by edge-sharing M 1/2Sn1/2Se4 tetrahedra. The transition metal ions (e.g. Mn2+ (1), Zn2+ (2), Hg2+ (3)) and Sn4+ ions are located at the same metal site in a mixed-metal phase with a ratio of 0.5/0.5. The band gaps of compounds 2 (2.42 eV) and 3 (2.46 eV) were calculated from the solid state UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy.
