Abstract

The crystal structure of diammin-cadmium tetracyanonickelate di-dioxane was determined from Weissenberg data. The crystals are tetragonal, space group P4/m with unit-cell dimensions a = 7.586(9) Å, c = 8.082(6) Å; the cell contains one formula unit. The parameters obtained from Fourier synthesis were least-squares refined to an B value of 0.11. The structure is a new member of Hofmann-type clathrates with the general formula M(NH3)2 · Ni(CN)4 · 2G. The guest molecule G in this unstable compound is a non-aromatic one.
