Abstract

Ca3SiCO7(H2)3H8SO3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional and consists of six hydrogen molecules, two H8SO3 clusters, and one Ca3SiCO7 framework. In each H8SO3 cluster, there are four inequivalent H1+ sites. In the first H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one S2- atom. The H–S bond length is 1.34 Å. In the second H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent H1+ atoms. All H–H bond lengths are 1.22 Å. In the third H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one H1+ and one O2- atom. The H–H bond length is 0.81 Å. The H–O bond length is 1.75 Å. In the fourth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to two H1+ atoms. S2- is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to one H1+ and three equivalent O2- atoms. All S–O bond lengths are 1.48 Å. O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one H1+ and one S2- atom. In the Ca3SiCO7 framework, Ca2+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.21–2.41 Å. Si4+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four O2- atoms. All Si–O bond lengths are 1.66 Å. C2- is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent O2- atoms. All C–O bond lengths are 1.30 Å. There are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ca2+ and one Si4+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ca2+ and one C2- atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ca2+ and one Si4+ atom.
