Synthesis and characterization of QD-3: the first organically templated aluminoborate with 11-, 12-, and 14-ring intersecting channels.
QD-3, a novel aluminoborate (TETA) 2[Al 2B 10 O 20].0.25H 2O (TETA = triethylenetetramine), has been solvothermally synthesized and characterized by IR, thermogravimetric analysis, power X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. This compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, space group Pna2 1 (No. 33), a = 25.9174(2) A, b = 7.4028(5) A, c = 17.013(4) A, V = 3264.2(2) A (3), and Z = 4. Its structure consists of AlO 4 tetrahedra and B 5O 10 clusters, which are interconnected and form a three-dimensional framework with large 11-, 12-, and 14-ring channels.
