Penta­zirconium copper tribismuth, Zr5CuBi3, crystallizes in the hexa­gonal Hf5CuSn3 structure type. The asymmetric unit contains two Zr sites (site symmetries 3.2 and m2m), one Cu site (site symmetry 3.m) and one Bi site (site symmetry m2m). The environment of the Bi atoms is a tetra­gonal anti­prism with one added atom and a coordination number (CN) of 9. The polyhedron around the Zr1 atom is a defective cubo­octa­hedron with CN = 11. The bicapped hexa­gonal anti­prism (CN = 14) is typical for Zr2 atoms. The Cu atom is enclosed in a eight-vertex polyhedron (octa­hedron with two centered faces). The metallic type of bonding was indicated by an analysis of the inter­atomic distances and electronic structure calculation data.

Zirconium intermetallic compounds are extensively investigated for the last 40 years as possible hydrogen storage materials. The results that we present in this paper is a continuation of the systematic study that we carried out for zirconium alloys with transition metals (Giza et al., 2001; Dolotko et al., 2003) as well as s-and p-elements (Zatorska et al., 2002a,b; 2004; Giza et al., 2009). So far, in the literature no data on ternary intermetallic compounds of Zr—Cu—Bi system has been found. However, it is known that closely related systems such as Zr—Cu—Sn (Pöttgen, 1997), Zr—Cu—Pb (Rieger & Parthé, 1965) and Zr—Cu—Sb (Garcia & Corbett, 1990) form Zr5CuX3 (where X=Sn, Pb, Sb) compounds with hexagonal Hf5CuSn3 structure type (superstructure to Ti5Ga4-type) with space group P63/mcm. Studying alloys of the Zr—Cu—Bi system we found the existence of isostructural Zr5CuBi3 compound and investigated its structure by single-crystal method. The projection of the unit cell and coordination polyhedra of the atoms are shown in Fig. 1. The environment of the Bi atoms is a tetragonal antiprism with one added atom and a coordination number equal 9. The polyhedron of Zr1 atom is a defective cubooctahedron with a coordination number equal 11. The bicapped hexagonal antiprism (c.n.=14) is typical for Zr2 atom. The Cu atom is enclosed in a 8-vertex polyhedron (octahedron with two centered faces). The distribution of zirconium and copper atoms in three-dimensional-nets consisted of Bi atoms are shown in Fig. 2a and distribution of bismuth and copper atoms in three-dimensional-nets consisted of Zr atoms are shown in Fig. 2b. In the first case the Bi atoms form a 63 corrugated nets and the Zr atoms (second case) form a 3246 nets. The similar atomic nets was described for Tb5LiSn3 isostructural compound (Stetskiv et al., 2011).

The electronic structure of the Zr5CuBi3 compound was calculated using the tight-binding linear muffin-tin orbital (TB–LMTO) method in the atomic spheres approximation (TB– LMTO–ASA; Andersen, 1975; Andersen & Jepsen, 1984; Andersen et al., 1985, 1986), using the experimental crystallographic data which are presented here. The Zr and Cu atoms donate their electrons to the Bi atoms. Therefore positive charge density can be observed around the atoms of transition elements (Zr and Cu) and negative charge density is around the bismuth atoms. The electron localization function (ELF) mapping and isosurfaces (ISO) are presented in Fig. 3a and Fig. 3b, respectively. The total and partial densities of states (DOS) of Zr5CuBi3 compound calculated by the TB–LMTO–ASA method are shown in Fig. 4. The Fermi level (EF) lies in a continuous DOS region indicating a metallic character for the title compound. The metallic type of bonding was confirmed also by an analysis of the interatomic distances.

Experimental top

The title compound was prepared from elemental zirconium (foil, 0.25 mm thick 99.8 at.%, Aldrich), copper (powder, pure, POCH) and bismuth (granules, 99.5 at.%, POCH). The pieces of the pure metals with a stoichiometry Zr50Cu20Bi30 were pressed into pellet. The sample was melted in arc furnace under continuous argon flow. The losses in alloy composition during melting were checked by weight comparison of the initial mixtures and the alloys. Metallic grey prismatic crystals were found in a crushed alloy using a conventional light microscope.

Refinement top

The structure was solved after the analytical absorption correction. In the first stage of the refinement, the positions of the Zr, Cu and Bi atoms were obtained correctly by direct methods. After the last cycle of refinement the highest peak of 1.915 e/Å3 is at (0; 0.4552; 1/4) and 0.76 Å away from the Bi atom. The deepest hole -1.539 e/Å3 is at (0.2424; 0; 1/4) and 1.12 Å away from the same atom.

Special details top

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
