Abstract

An open framework gallium selenide, Ga(4)Se(7)(en)(2).(enH)(2), has been prepared by the direct reaction of gallium (Ga) and selenium (Se) in ethylenediamine (en), in which both covalent and hydrogen bonds have been employed to combine the inorganic structures and organic spacers to build layers with micropores. Its structure has been determined by X-ray diffraction. Its thermal and optical properties have been characterized by TGA and UV-vis, Raman, and IR spectroscopies, respectively.
