Abstract
The crystal structure of Pb6O[(Si6Al2)O20)] is investigated using X-ray diffraction. The compound has tetragonal symmetry, space group I4/mmm, a = 11.7162(10) Å, c = 8.0435(12) Å, and V = 1104.13(2) Å3. The structure is refined to R 1 = 0.036 for 562 unique reflections with [F 0] ≥ 4σF. The structure contains two symmetrically independent positions of the Pb2+ cations coordinated by five O atoms (Pb2+-O2− = 2.34–2.68 Å). The TO4 tetrahedra (T = Si, Al) form tubular [(Si6Al2)O20] chains extended along the c axis. The O4 oxygen atom is not bonded to the Si and Al atoms and is octahedrally coordinated by six Pb atoms with the formation of an oxo-centered OPb6 octahedron. The assumption is made that, in some of lead silicate and aluminosilicate glasses, a number of oxygen atoms are located outside the tetrahedral structure and represent segregation centers of the Pb2+ cations due to the formation of oxo-centered complexes.
