Abstract
[Fe(en)3]2Hg2Te9, a novel tellurometalate containing a new type of Zin tl ion (Hg2Te9)4-, has been synthesized from solvothermal reactions. S ingle-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis shows that this compounds con tains one-dimensional chains of weakly bound (Hg2Te9)4- ions separated by iron tris(ethylenediamine). Not only is [Fe(en)3]2Hg2Te9 the first tellurometalate produced from solvothermal reactions, it is also the first example of an interesting structure containing a Zintl ion and t ransition metal complex (as counterion) in the same phase.
