Abstract

Two new nonmetal cation tetrafluoroborate phases [H3tren](BF4)3 (I) and [H3tren](BF4)3 HF (II) were synthesized by microwave-assisted solvothermal and characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction, IR spectroscopy and thermal analysis DTA-TGA. [H3tren](BF4)3 is cubic (P213) with unit cell parameter a = 11.688(1) Å. [H3tren](BF4)3•HF is trigonal (R3c) with unit cell parameters a = 15.297(6) Å and c = 12.007(2) Å. Both (I) and (II) structures can be described from isolated tetrafluoroborate BF4- anions, triprotonated tris-(2-aminoethyl)amine (tren) [H3tren]3+. Phase (II) contains disordered BF4- tetrahedron and hydrofluoric acid.

Highlights

  • Hybrid materials are chemical compounds consisting of the association of organic moiety and inorganic portion

  • We describe the solvothermal synthesis, single crystal X-ray measurements, thermal behaviour and IR spectroscopy of two nonmetal cation tetrafluoroborates [H3 tren](BF4 )3 (I) and

  • In the chemical system boric acid tris-(2-aminoethyl) amine-hydrofluoric acid, two new phases were successfully obtained, and their structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction method

Summary

Introduction

Hybrid materials are chemical compounds consisting of the association of organic moiety and inorganic portion. Organic molecules are highly diverse and may contain functions such as carboxylates, phosphonates and amines. The idea behind this type of material is to couple specific properties of the various components within a single entity. The assembly of the properties of both components can be established in two ways: first, the entity presents the final properties of the two components regarding simple apposition, or second, the combination of two properties induces a strong synergistic interaction, allowing the creation of a new property resulting from the association of specific physical properties, such as optical, mechanical, magnetic and/or electrical properties.
