Abstract

A subsolidus triangulation of Li2MoO4-Rb2MoO4-MMoO4 (M = Ca, Sr, Pb, Ba) systems is performed. The RbLiMoO4-Rb2M(MoO4)2 (M = Pb, Ba) joins, where 11 mol.% long Rb2M(MoO4)2-based solid solutions are found, are studied in most detail. Ternary molybdates do not form in the systems, which is confirmed by spontaneous flux crystallization. The α-Rb2Pb(MoO4)2 crystals are obtained and their crystal structure is solved (a = 20.9724(15) Å, b = 12.1261(8) Å, c = 16.1171(10) Å, β = 115.728(13)°, C2/m space group, R = 0.0695, Z = 16), which is a monoclinic superstructure of the palmierite type and has the largest cell volume and the most complex structure among lead-containing palmierites. One of the MoO6 tetrahedra is orientationally disordered over two sites; lead atoms are shifted from the centers of their coordination polyhedra to one of their faces and have cn = 6–8; for rubidium cations cn = 10–12.
