ABSTRACT

The crystal structure of synthetic Na 3 C0 3 *H 20 has been

refined using 1231 unique x-ray diffraction data collected by

the peak height method on a diffractometer. R = 0.034. The

unit cell is a = 6.474(2) , b = 10.724 (3) and _c = 5.259(2) A

with Z = 4 and space group P2 x ab. The calculated density is

-3the same as the observed density, 2.26 g*cm . The structure

contains sheets of C0 32- ions bonded to Na~

r ions and water

molecules roughly halfway between the sheets. Each C0 32 "

bonds edgewise to both Na+

ions. The Na ‘ ions have irregular

but similar coordinations of seven neighbors. Each water

molecule is bonded to both Na^ ions and forms hydrogen bonds

to both neighboring C0 32- layers.

1. INTRODUCTION

The crystal structure of Na 2 C0 3 *H 2 0 was determined

except for the hydrogen positions, by Harper [1] in 1936

using qualitative estimates of the x-ray intensities. In

our program of studies on coordination in hydrated carbonates

[2] and phosphates [3], we have refined Harper's structure for

Na 2 C03 ’HgO using new x-ray data. Na 2 C0 3 *H 2 0 is the mineral

thermonatr ite and often occurs with Na 2 C03 *10H 2 0 (natron) and

NasC03 *NaHC03 *2H 2 0 (trona) [4,5,6].

The structure was refined isotropically from Harper's

parameters using the X-ray 67 system [12] of computer programs

to R = 0.065; the x parameter of Na(l) was fixed at x = 0.w — —

The structure was refined anisotropically to Rw = 0.044 and

the hydrogens were found unambiguously as the two highest peaks

in the difference synthesis in which the coefficients were

weighed by the least-squares weights. The two next highest

peaks were less than 3/4 as high as the peaks assigned to

hydrogens and were (a) halfway between C and 0(3) in the C0 3

group and (b) 0.7 A from 0(1) of the C0 3 group. The hydrogens

were included with variable positional parameters and fixed

thermal parameters (B H = 1 A 2) in the final refinement to R =

w

0.029. The largest correlation coefficients are ~0.25 be-

tween the scale factor and the B. 1

1

thermal parameters of the

two Na ions and~0.15 between these B^ 1 thermal parameters. Most

correlation coefficients are less than 0.05.

The atomic parameters are given in table 1. The observed

and calculated structure factors are given in table 2. The

hydrogen positions obtained from the weighted difference syn-

thesis and from the refinements differ by ~0.17 A. "Calculated"

hydrogen positions were derived by applying the geometry of free

water (0-H = 0.958 A, Z_H-0-H = 104.5°) with the constraint

Page 9: A refinement of the crystal structure of Na2CO3.H2O: progress … · 2016. 8. 18. · 2 1.INTRODUCTION ThecrystalstructureofNa2C03*H20wasdetermined exceptforthehydrogenpositions,byHarper[1]in1936

that the 0-H...0 angles be as near to linear as possible. These

hydrogen positions differ from the other positions by about

0. 3 A. The three sets of hydrogen positions are compared in

table 3. The distances and angles which involve hydrogen were

obtained using the "calculated" hydrogen positions.

3. DESCRIPTION OF THE STRUCTURE

The structure (fig. 1) contains C0 3 anions whose planes areand

' almost

perpendicular to a_^which form sheets at x:- 0.25 and x=:0.75.

Because the C atoms lie close to the planes of the a_ glides,

they form columns along a_ at y = 0.25, 0.60. Two ad-

jacent C0 3 groups in a column are held together by both

being ionically bonded to four Na ions and hydrogen bonded

by one water molecule. The four Na ions and the water mole-

cule form a pentagon roughly halfway between the C0 3 sheets.

Adjacent C0 3 groups in a given sheet are linked by the Na

ions that lie above and below the sheet.

3.1. The Carbonate Anion and Environment

The dimensions in the C0 3 anion are given in table 4

and the environment is detailed in table 4 and figure 2. The

C0 3 group is nearly trigonal. As can be seen in figures 1

and 2, 0(2) is the only oxygen which is not hydrogen bonded,

being instead ionically bonded to four Na ions. The absence

Page 10: A refinement of the crystal structure of Na2CO3.H2O: progress … · 2016. 8. 18. · 2 1.INTRODUCTION ThecrystalstructureofNa2C03*H20wasdetermined exceptforthehydrogenpositions,byHarper[1]in1936

6

of hydrogen bonding to 0(2) may account for the observation

that the C-0(2) bond is apparently the shortest of the three.

0(1) is coordinated to three Na ions and is the acceptor in

the hydrogen bond 0 ( 1) . . .H ( 1) -0 (4) from the water molecule.

0(3) is bonded strongly to two Na ions and more weakly (2.822 A)

to a third Na(2) . 0(3) is the acceptor in the hydrogen bond

0 ( 3) . . .H ( 2) -0 (4) from the water molecule,planes of the

Since theAC0 3 groups are all essentially perpendicular

to a_, this is expected to be the direction of lowest refractive

index, as was found by Harper [1]. Later workers [13,14]

apparently did not permute the refractive indexes when they

permuted the unit cell axes to fit crystallographic convention.

3.2. The Sodium Environments

The two crystallographically distinct Na ions in the

structure are in general positions. Their environments are

shown in figure 3 and are given in table 5.

Na(l) is bonded ionically to five oxygens from C0 3

groups, and strongly to one water oxygen. Four of the C0 3

oxygens, 0(1), 0(2 '), 0(3), 0(3^, figure 3, define an approxi-

mate square about Na(l), and water oxygen 0(4) forms the apex

of a square pyramid. The fifth carbonate oxygen, 0(2), is

in the same C0 3 group as 0(1); the C0 3 group is therefore

Page 11: A refinement of the crystal structure of Na2CO3.H2O: progress … · 2016. 8. 18. · 2 1.INTRODUCTION ThecrystalstructureofNa2C03*H20wasdetermined exceptforthehydrogenpositions,byHarper[1]in1936

7

coordinated edgewise to Na(l). The position of 0(2) is such

that the coordination about Na(l) cannot be considered octahedral.

The next oxygen in the direction of the octahedral apex is the

water oxygen 0(4'), which is relatively far (3.669 A) from Na(l).

The coordination of Na(2) is similar to that of Na(l).

Na(2) is slightly displaced from the center of an approximate

square of carbonate oxygens, 0(17

), 0(2"), 0(1"), 0(2'"). The

displacement is towards the strongly bonded water molecule

0(4), which is the apex of a square based pyramid (base down in

figure 3). The coordination of Na(2) is completed by 0(4")

o

(2.936 A) which is the remaining apex of an approximate

octahedron, and by 0(3 ') which is in the same C0 3 group as

0(2"). Thus the C0 3 group is coordinated edgewise to Na(2)

also, this time using 0(2) and 0(3) instead of 0(1) and 0(2),

which are used to coordinate to Na(l). This edgewise coordination

is shown in figure 2. The coordination to Na(2) comprises

five carbonate oxygens and two water molecules instead of four

carbonate oxygens and two water molecules as suggested by

Harper [1] and noted by Wells [15].

3.3. The Water Environment

The water environment is given in table 6 and shown in

figure 3. The water molecule is bonded to Na(l) and Na(2)

Page 12: A refinement of the crystal structure of Na2CO3.H2O: progress … · 2016. 8. 18. · 2 1.INTRODUCTION ThecrystalstructureofNa2C03*H20wasdetermined exceptforthehydrogenpositions,byHarper[1]in1936

with distances of 2.434 and 2.384 A respectively, and forms

hydrogen bonds to oxygens 0(1) and 0(3) of neighboring C0 3

groups. Na(l), Na(2), 0(1), and 0(3) are arranged approxi-

mately tetrahedrally about the water oxygen. The distortion

of this tetrahedron is considerable as can be seen from the

angles listed in table 6. The closest H. . .Na distance is

H(l)...Na(2) = 2.42 A, which is in the normal range.

The calculated hydrogen positions in table 3 were

obtained using the geometry of free water and imposing the

condition that the 0-H...0 angles both be as linear as possible.

Because H(2)...0(3) is shorter (1.74 A) than H(1)...0(1)

(1.96 A) it is possible that the hydrogen bond 0 (4) -H ( 2) . . . 0 ( 3)

is strictly linear. Assuming the same water geometry, the

hydrogens would then be ^ 0 . 14 A away from the positions given

in table 3 at 0.145, -0.046, 0.182 for H(l) and -0.065, -0.095,

0.102 for H(2). The 0 (4) -H ( 1) . . . 0 ( 1) angle would 'then be 156°,

and the H(1)...0(1) and H(2)...0(3) distances would be 2.01 A

and 1.73 A, respectively. The closest H 0 ..Na distance

would be H(l)...Na(2) = 2.39 A.
