Bismuth oxynitrate is the name applied to a number of compounds that contain
Hydrates
Bismuth oxynitrate is commercially available as Bi5O(OH)9(NO3)4 (CAS number: 1304-85-4 ) or as BiONO3·H2O (CAS Number: 13595-83-0 ).
Some compounds have been fully characterised with single crystal studies and found to contain the
- Bi6O4(OH)4(NO3)6·4H2O[10] (equivalent to BiONO3·H2O; Bi2O3·N2O5·6H2O )
- [Bi6O4(OH)4][Bi6O5(OH)3](NO3)11, which contains two different cations, [Bi6O4(OH)4]6+ and [Bi6O5(OH)3]5+[11]
The compound Bi6O5(OH)3(NO3)5·3H2O (equivalent to 6Bi2O3·5N2O5·9H2O) also contains the octahedral units but this time they are joined to form {[Bi6O5(OH)3]5+}2.[12]
Additionally some oxynitrates have layer structures (a common motif also found in bismuth(III)
- Bi2O2(OH)NO3 (equivalent to BiONO3·1/2H2O) contains "[Bi2O2]2+" layers[13]
- Bi5O7NO3, which is isostructural with β-Bi5O7I[14]
Cluster cation structure
The octahedral ion has 6 Bi3+ ions at the corners of an
Preparation
Bismuth oxynitrates can be prepared from bismuth(III) nitrate. For example, hydrolysis of a solution of bismuth nitrate through the addition of alkali or the reaction of the pentahydrate, BiNO3·5H2O with KOH, or the controlled thermal decomposition of the pentahydrate.
The thermal decomposition of bismuth nitrate pentahydrate proceeds through the following stages:[16]
- At pH below 1.0, Bi6O4(OH)4(NO3)6·4H2O (equivalent to BiNO3·H2O) is the first solid product, which when heated produces Bi6H2O(NO3)O4(OH)4 (equivalent to BiNO3.1/2H2O).
- Between pH 1.2 and 1.8, further hydrolysis occurs and Bi6O5(OH)3(NO3)5·3H2O is formed.
The final oxynitrate product of thermal dehydration is believed to be Bi5O7NO3,[14] which is isostructural with β–Bi5O7I and has a layer structure.[17] The ultimate stage of thermal decomposition of oxynitrates is bismuth(III) oxide, Bi2O3.
