Abstract

The crystal structure of γ-Mo4O11 was obtained at room temperature (296 K) by Rietveld analysis with X-ray powder diffraction data. The crystal belongs to orthorhombic system, space group: Pna21, Z=4, Mr=559.753 (Atomic weights 1977), Dx=4.1228 g/cm3, F(000)=1024.0, μ=451.293 cm−1 (Int. Tab. Vol. C, Table 4.2.4.2, p. 193, λ=1.540 60 Å), a=24.4756(5) Å, b=6.7516(1) Å, c=5.4572(1) Å, and V=901.80(3) Å3. The structure was refined to Rwp=5.60%, Rp=4.27%, Rb=3.36%, and Rf=2.74% for 65 parameters with 3541 step intensities and 3055 peaks. Goodness of the fit S=3.35.
