Abstract
Single crystals of K5(Cd0.5Zr1.5)2(MoO4)6 molybdate have been grown. Its composition and crystal structure have been established from X‐ray diffraction data CAD‐4 automatic diffractometer, MoKα radiation, 940 F(hkl), R = 0.0234. The crystals have a trigonal unit cell a = b = 10.624(1)A, c = 37.694(6)A, V = 3684.5(8)A3, and space group R3c. The 3D mixed framework of the molybdate structure is formed by two kinds of Mo tetrahedra and (Cd, Zr) octahedra joined by shared O vertices. The large cavities in the framework are occupied by K atoms of three kinds. The distribution of Cd2+ and Zr4+ cations over two crystallographic positions has been refined.
