Bismuth oxynitrate

Bismuth oxynitrate is the name applied to a number of compounds that contain Bi3+, nitrate ions and oxide ions and which can be considered as compounds formed from Bi2O3, N2O5 and H2O. Other names for bismuth oxynitrate include bismuth subnitrate and bismuthyl nitrate. In older texts bismuth oxynitrate is often simply described as BiONO3. Bismuth oxynitrate was once called magisterium bismuti or bismutum subnitricum, and was used as a white pigment, in beauty care, and as a gentle disinfectant for internal and external use.[1][2]

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 octahedral [Bi6Ox(OH)8−x](10-x)+ cation. There is indirect evidence that either the octahedral cation Bi6O4(OH)46+[2] or the octahedral cation Bi6(OH)126+[3] is present in aqueous solution following the polymerisation of Bi(H2O)83+, the Bi3+ ion present in acidic solutions.[4] The ion Bi6O4(OH)46+ is found in the perchlorate compound Bi6O4(OH)4ClO4·7H2O[5] and is isoelectronic with the octahedral Sn6O4(OH)4 cluster found in the hydrate of tin(II) oxide, 3SnO·H2O.[3] The compounds that contain this are:-

Bi6O4(HO)4(NO3)6·H2O[6][7] (equivalent to BiONO3·0.5 H2O; Bi2O3.N2O5.H2O )
Bi6O4(OH)4(NO3)6.4H2O[8](equivalent to BiONO3·H2O; Bi2O3.N2O5.6H2O )
[Bi6O4.5(OH)3.5]2(NO3)11 contains two different cations, [Bi6O4(OH)4]6+ and [Bi6O5(OH)3]5+[9]

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.[10]

Additionally some oxynitrates have layer structures (a common motif also found in bismuth(III) oxyhalides):-

Bi2O2(OH)NO3 (equivalent to BiONO3·0.5 H2O) contains "[Bi2O2]2+ layers[11]
Bi5O7NO3 which is isostructural with β–Bi5O7I[12]

Cluster cation structure

The octahedral ion has 6 Bi3+ ions at the corners of an octahedron. There is no covalent bond between the Bi atoms, they are held in position by bridging O2− and OH− anions, one at the centre of each of the eight triangular faces, bridging three Bi ions. The Bi ions are essentially four coordinate and are at the apex of a flat square pyramid. An ab initio theoretical study of the hydration mechanism of Bi3+ and the structure concludes that the lone pairs on the Bi3+ ions are stereochemically active.[13]

Preparation of bismuth oxynitrates

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[14]

At < pH 1, Bi6O4(OH)4(NO3)6.4H2O (BiNO3.H2O)is the first solid product, which when heated produced Bi6H2O(NO3)O4(OH)4 (BiNO3. 0.5H2O.
Between pH 1.2 and pH 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,[12] which is isostructural with β–Bi5O7I and has a layer structure.[15] The ultimate stage of thermal decomposition of oxynitrates is bismuth(III) oxide, Bi2O3.

gollark: Generalized COME FROM? I like it.
gollark: My language is very trendy and supports `async`/`await` for control flow. `async` can be added to any token whatsoever and does nothing, `await` runs your thing in the background and does not actually wait for it.
gollark: This is proving less easy than anticipated.
gollark: Wait, I can get that very easily, hmmmm.
gollark: If I had a big sample of python code I could use zstd and dictionary mode instead perhaps.
