Inorganic acid influenced formation of Ti26 and Ti44 oxysulfate clusters with toroidal and capsule structures†
Abstract
We herein report the discovery of inorganic toroidal and capsule titanium oxysulfate clusters by ionothermal synthesis. The ratio between geometrically different anions (tetrahedral SO42−vs. pseudo-tetrahedral PO33−) shows an interesting influence on cluster structure formation.
