Abstract

The layered double hydroxide (LDH) Al2Li(OH)6[NiCl4]1/2 was synthesized by anion exchange of Al2Li(OH)6(NO3) and the coordination structure of [NiCl4]2− in the interlayers was investigated. The LDH had a hexagonal cell with a = 5.06 and c = 23.06 Å. Since the basal spacing of one layer was 7.7 Å, the interlayer distance was calculated to be 2.9 Å and was too narrow for the usual tetrahedral NiCl4 structure. From extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) measurements, the first neighbour Ni-Cl distances in the LDH were 2.10 Å which was compatible with four-fold coordination. Since the electron spin resonance (ESR) spectrum of the LDH showed no absorption, the [NiCl4]2− structure was considered to be square planar, rather than the usual tetrahedral structure in the interlayers of LDH.
