Abstract

Hydrogen bonding plays an important role in the formation of crystal structures. The workwas carried out for the search of novel perhydrates. Six combinations were used usingdifferent stoichiometric quantities of guanidine cations, trimesate and hydrogen peroxide.Six potentially new novel perhydrates were discovered using X-ray powder diffraction.Structure of three novel perhydrates, e.g. Na3(C9H3O6).1.5H2O2.3H2O, Na2(NH4)4(CH6N3)3(C9H3O6). 2.5H2O2.12.5H2O and (CH6N3)3(C9H3O6).1.26H2O2.0.72H2O were fully determinedusing Single-Crystal X-ray diffraction.
