Аннотация:The compounds [(n−C4H9)4N+]nXn−·nyH2O have been prepared where X is F-, Cl-, Br-, CH3CO2-, CrO42-, WO42-, C2O42-, HCO3-, HPO42-, and y is approximately 32. They form an isomorphous crystal series which is tetragonal with a=23.65±0.15 A, c=12.40±0.15 A. A similar series of the type [(i−C5H11)4N+]nXn−⋅ny′H2O has been prepared where X is F-, Cl-, CrO42-, WO42-, and y′ is approximately 40. They also form an isomorphous group which is orthorhombic with a=12.10±0.10 A, b=21.50±0.15 A, c=12.65±0.15 A. These compounds are believed to be of the clathrate type, similar in general character to the gas hydrates.
