Figure 4 The hexaaquaaluminium cations with the central atoms Al1 and Al1A define a double chain structure with the backbone along [0 1 0]. Connecting elements in this direction are the methanesulfonate anions with atoms S2 and S2A and their translation symmetry equivalents. The viewing direction (close to [1 0 1]) is approximately perpendicular to the chain propagation direction. [Symmetry codes: (A) 1–x, 1–y, 1–z; (B) x, y + 1, z; (C) 1–x, –y, 1–z; (d) x, y–1, z; (E) 1–x, –y, 1–z]. |
