Abstract
The binary molybdate of variable composition Li2−2nMn2+x(MoO4)3 (O<x<0.28 at 600°C), isostructural to Li2Fe2(MoO4)3, was discovered in the Li2MoO4-MnMoO4 system. We have grown single crystals of Li1.60Mn2.20(MoO4)3) and determined its crystal structure (space group Pnma, a=5.145, b=10.681, c=17.985 Å, Z=4). Along with statistical arrangement of Li and Mn in three different atomic positions, cation vacancies in one of these were found. Based on the data obtained, we propose to revise the compositions of some lithium-containing phases with the Li2Fe2(MoO4)3-type structure.
