Abstract

Abstract Single crystals of the red chlorides RbReCl 4 and CsReCl 4 were grown from hydrochloric acid solutions of ReCl 3, and RbCl and CsCl, respectively. Both the crystal structures of RbReCl 4 (lattice parameters, a= 1049.51 (8) pm, b= 1489.32 (10) pm, c= 1212.93 (10) pm; crystal system, orthorhombic; space group, Cmcm) and of CsReCl 4 (lattice parameters, a= 1408.72 (12) pm, b= 1404.98 (12) pm, c= 1066.67 (9) pm; crystal ...
