The title compound, dizinc cadmium hydroxide tetraoxido­vanadate, Zn1.86Cd0.14(OH)VO4, was prepared under low-temperature hydro­thermal conditions. It is isostructural with Zn2(OH)VO4 and Cu2(OH)VO4. In the crystal structure, chains of edge-sharing [ZnO6] octahedra are inter­connected by VO4 tetra­hedra (site symmetries of both V atoms and their coordination polyhedra are .m.) to form a three-dimensional [Zn(OH)VO4]2− framework with channels occupied by Zn and Zn/Cd cations adopting trigonal–bipyramidal and distorted octa­hedral coordinations, respectively. Zn1.86Cd0.14(OH)VO4 is topologically related to adamite-type phases, and descloizite- and tsumcorite-type structures.

The phases in AMX–O–(H) system often form such family of compounds showing rich structural chemistry with anionic frameworks built from MO6 octahedra and XO4 tetrahedra and An+ ions as counter cations. There are many reports on divalent metal vanadates synthesized by high temperature solid state reactions. However, hydrothermal methods are proved to be effective for the synthesis of new vanadium compounds, including zinc vanadates (Wang et al., 1998 and references therein). To keep the products of hydrothermal synthesis under control is often difficult because of the high sensitivity to the exact reaction conditions. However, hydrothermal syntheses often result in well developed single crystals. Here we report on the new zinc cadmium hydrogen vanadate, (Zn1.86Cd0.14)(OH)VO4. In its crystal structure [Zn3O6]n octahedral chains are interconnected by VO4 tetrahedra to form a [Zn3(OH)VO4] framework. The voids are filled by Zn1 and Zn2/Cd2 cations with trigonal bipyramidal and distorted octahedral coordination, respectively. The two distinct V atoms adopt tetrahedral coordination. VO4 tetrahedra are distorted and both have site symmetry .m. V—O bond lengths are in the ranges of 1.684 (3) to 1.729 (2) Å for V1 and 1.651 (3) to 1.789 (3) Å for V2. The Zn—O bond lengths vary from 1.958 (3) to 2.427 (2) Å. (Zn1.86Cd0.14)(OH)VO4 is isostructural with Zn2(OH)VO4 (Wang et al., 1998) and Cu2(OH)VO4 (Wu et al., 2003) and topologically related to ASbV2O8 (A = K, Rb, Tl or Cs) (Nandini & Vidyasagar, 1998), adamite-type phases (Zn2(XO4)(OH), X5+ = P, As, V) and the minerals descloizite PbZn(VO4)(OH) (Bachmann, 1953; Qurashi & Barnes, 1964; Hawthorne & Faggiani, 1979) and tsumcorite PbZn2(AsO4)2(H2O) (Tillmanns & Gebert, 1973). In descloizite- and adamite-type structures the [ZnV2O9]-type chain is linked to four neighbours by sharing one column of tetrahedra with each neighbour. In the title compound the [Zn3V2O9] chain is linked to three neighbours by sharing two columns tetrahedra with one neighbour and one column with each of the other two neighbours (see Figs. 4 and 5 in Wang et al., 1998). If [ZnV2O9]-type chain shares two columns of tetrahedra with all neighbours, a two-dimensional layer instead of three-dimensional framework are formed. Such case is found in mineral tsumcorite, where [ZnAs2O9] chain is linked by sharing two of AsO4 tetrahedra with each of its two neighbours thus forming a layered structure eighbor and one column with each of the other two neighbours (see Fig. 6 in Wang et al., 1998). Bond-valence summations for all atoms, calculated using the parameters of Brese & O'Keeffe (1991), give 2.00 v.u. (valence units) for Zn1, 2.00 (1.22/0.78) v.u.for Zn2/Cd2, 2.07 v.u. for Zn3, 5.11 v.u. for V1, 4.90 for V2. For O atoms bond-valence summations are 1.94 v.u. (O1), 1.88 v.u. (O2), 1.99 v.u. (O3), 1.94 v.u. (O4), 1.96 v.u. (O5), 1.90 (O6), 1.32 v.u. (O7) and 1.38 v.u. (O8). Taking into account that the O7 and O8 atoms are the single donors of strong hydrogen bonds toward O4 (H2 forms a bifurcated hydrogen bond to two O4 atoms) and O2, respectively, the bond valences are well balanced.

Experimental top

Single crystals of (Zn1.86Cd0.14)(OH)VO4 were obtained as reaction products from mixtures of Cd(OH)2 (Alfa Products), 2ZnO.2CO3.4H2O (Alfa Products), and V2O5 (Fluka Chemika 94710, 98%). The mixture was transferred into Teflon vessel and filled to approximately 70% of their inner volume with distilled water (pH of the mixture was 6). Finally it was enclosed into stainless steel autoclave. The mixture was heated under heating regime with three steps: the autoclaves were heated from 293.15 to 473.15 K (4 h), held at 473.15 K for 192 h, and finally cooled to room temperature within 175 h. At the end of the reaction the pH of the solvent was 6. The reaction products were filtered and washed thoroughly with distilled water. (Zn1.86Cd0.14)(OH)VO4 crystallized as transparent colourless needle-like crystals (yield ca 65%) and uninvestigated powder (yield ca 35%). All crystals are up to 0.2 mm in length.

Qualitative chemical analyses were performed using a Jeol JSM-6400LV scanning electron microscope (SEM) connected with a LINK energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX) unit confirmed the presence of Zn, Cd and V.

Refinement top

Studies of several single crystals of (Zn1.86Cd0.14)(OH)VO4 all revealed orthorhombic unit cell. A sample exhibiting sharp reflection spots was chosen for data collection. The crystal structure was refined starting from the atomic coordinates of Zn2(OH)VO4 (Wang et al., 1998) using standard procedures. The space-group symmetry Pnma was indicated by systematic absences and intensity statistics, and was confirmed by the structure refinement. Substitutional disorder was apparent and the occupancies of Zn22+ and Cd22+ were refined keeping the occupancy sum of Zn2+Cd2 fixed at 2.0 atoms per unit cell to satisfy the charge balance. The atomic coordinates and displacement parameters of Zn2 and Cd2 were kept equal. Occupancy of 72.7 and 27.3% for Zn2 and Cd2, respectively, were obtained. Anisotropic displacement parameters were allowed to vary for all non-H atoms. The H atoms were located from difference Fourier map and refined as riding atoms, with restraints on the O—H bond distance of 0.82 (2) Å and Uiso(H) values at 1.2Ueq(O).

Special details top

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > 2sigma(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
