Abstract

Abstract Four different crystalline phases of Zn0.81[Pt(C2O4)2].6D2O have been observed and partially characterized by single crystal neutron diffraction measurements. A crystal in the previously reported orthorphombic α-form was pulled along its c-axis at room temperature and was found to transform to a monoclinic β-form. Two new coexisting phases, monoclinic γ-Zn-OP and orthorhombic δ-Zn-OP were found when the sample was cooled to 200 K. Further crystallographic work is necessary in order to establish the detailed nature of the new phases.
