Abstract

The dissolution of the ternary material K6Rb6Si17 in liquid ammonia yields the solvate corn pound Rb4Si9 5NH(3), which contains fourfold negatively charged nine atom silicon clusters Si-9(4-) Using additionally the [2 2 2] cryptand during the dissolution results in the solvate [K(2 2 2-crypt)](2)Si-5 4NH(3) in which the Si-5(2-) anion is present in the crystal structure The Si-5(2-) anion has the shape of a nearly ideal trigonal bipyramid The starting material K6Rb6Si17 contains both Si-4(4-) and Si-9(4-) Zintl anions In ammoniate crystal structures Si-9(4-) anions are accessible independently of Si-4(4-) anions and ammonia of crystallisation plays a major role in the observed crystal symmetry For the cryptate structures of Si-5(2-) and Ge-5(2-) anions ammonia of crystallisation is obligatory despite the loss of crystal symmetry compared to the crystal structures of the heavier homologues Pb-5(2-) and Sn-5(2-)
