Abstract

The unit-cell parameters of [NH2(CH3)2]MnCl3 · 2H2O crystals are determined by X-ray diffraction analysis and the velocities of longitudinal ultrasonic waves in these crystals are measured by the echo-pulse method in the temperature range 100–315 K. The coefficients of thermal expansion along the principal crystallographic axes are derived from the temperature dependences of the unit-cell parameters. The temperature dependences of the characteristics studied reveal kink anomalies at temperatures of ∼125, 179, 203, 260, and 303 K. These anomalies are indicative of structural transformations in the [NH2(CH3)2]MnCl3 · 2H2O crystals, which may be related to the dynamics of dimethylammonium cations.
