Abstract: The synthesis and structural characterization of two novel trivalent neodymium microporous silicates whose structures are reminiscent of the structure of mineral montregianite of the rhodesite group, and their infrared light-emission properties are reported. The compound KNa2Nd[Si8O19]center dot 5H(2)O (1) crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmma space group: a = 23.9016(17) angstrom, b = 6.9980(5) angstrom, c = 6.5474(5) angstrom. Heating 1 at 200 degrees C for 40 min affords a new partially dehydrated phase, KNa2Nd[Si8O19]center dot 2.8H(2)O (2), also crystallizing in the orthorhombic Pmma space group: a = 23.923(4) angstrom, b = 6.9950(11) angstrom, c = 6.5474(10) angstrom. -Compound 2 is the hydrated phase with the lowest content of water molecule reported to date in the rhodesite mineral series.
