摘要

Four new amine-templated materials, containing two-dimensional lithium beryllofluoride sheets of the stoichiometry [LiBeF(4)](-), have been synthesised under hydrothermal and ambient pressure conditions. [LiBeF(4)][C(6)H(4)(CH(3))CH(2)NH(3)] (1), [LiBeF(4)][C(6)H(4)CH(2)NH(3)Cl] (2), [LiBeF(4)](2)[NH(3)CH(2)CH(2)CH(2)NH(3)] (3), and [LiBeF(4)][C(6)H(5)CH(2)CH(2)CH(2)NH(3)] (4) all contain well-separated anionic sheets containing two different topologies with the 'inter-layer' regions comprising of organoamine templating species. Use of the different organoamine templating agents results in compounds possessing very different relative arrangements of the lithium beryllofluoride sheets. The materials crystallise in P-centred orthorhombic and monoclinic cells; for 1 (templating agent: 3-methylbenzylamine) Pca2(1); for 2 (4-chlorobenzylamine) Pbca; for 3 (1,3-diamminopropane) Pccn, and for 4 (3-phenyl-1-propylamine) P2(1)/c. Hydrogen bonding exists between ions situated on the protonated amine groups on the templating species and electronegative fluoride ions, on MF(4) tetrahedra (where M=Li and Be).
