Abstract
Abstract
Four complex metal antimony tartrates have been synthesized in single crystal form by slowly evaporating aqueous solutions of potassium antimony tartrate (tartar emetic) and metal nitrates or chlorides. Crystal structures of these compounds all contain infinite layers formed by linking antimony tartrate dimers with M–O bonds, with M = Li, La, Ce or Nd. Dehydration of the La and Ce compounds at elevated temperatures led to new layered structures via single-crystal to single-crystal transformations.
