Abstract
Gadolinium potassium hexacyanoferrate(II) trihydrate, GdKFe(CN)(6).3H( 2)O, crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pnma (No. 62). The s tructure consists of non-linear cyanide bridges linking octahedrally c oordinated Fe atoms and eight-coordinate Gd atoms. Cavities within the structure are occupied by potassium and zeolitic water molecules whic h are within hydrogen-bonding distance of the water molecules bonded t o the Gd atoms, GdN6(H2O)(2).
