Abstract/NotesAbstractHydrothermal treatment of quartz with 2 M K2CO3
solutions at 623 K and 1 kbar resulted in the formation of single crystals
of the monoclinic polymorph of potassium hydrogen disilicate
(KHSi2O5 or KSi2O4(OH)).
Basic crystallographic data of this so-called phase I at room conditions are
as follows: space group C2/m,
a = 14.5895(10) Å, b = 8.2992(3) Å,
c = 9.6866(7) Å, β = 122.756(10)°, V =
986.36(10) Å3, Z = 8. The structure was
determined by direct methods and refined to a residual of R(|F|) = 0.0224
for 892 independent observed reflections with I >
2σ(I). The compound belongs to the group of chain
silicates. It is based on crankshaft-like vierer
double-chains running parallel to [010]. The H atoms are associated with
silanol groups. Hydrogen bonding between neighbouring double-chains results
in the formation of ∼5 Å wide slabs. The three crystallographically
independent K cations with six to eight O ligands provide linkage (1)
between the chains of a single slab or (2) between adjacent slabs.
Structural investigations have been supplemented by micro-Raman
spectroscopy. The interpretation of the spectroscopic data including the
allocation of the bands to certain vibrational species has been aided by DFT
calculations.
