Abstract

Single crystals of the title compound have been obtained by neutralization of formic acid with solid rubidium carbonate and subsequent solvent evaporation at room temperature. The very hygroscopic crystals are orthorhombic, space group Pbca (Nr. 61), with a = 7.614(1), b = 17.926(2), c = 7.862(1)Angstrom and Z = 8. The structure, which has been refined to R = 0.072 and R(w) = 0.067 for 1008 unique reflections, is isotypic with that of the analogous potassium compound. It comprises layers of edge-sharing distorted RbO8 square antiprisms, sandwiched between two adjacent formate layers. The sandwiches are hold together by O...H...O interactions, which are, however, rather weak.
