Open tunnel oxide, -MnO 2 , without any large stabilizing cation has been successfully synthesized by ozone-oxidation of Mn 2 2؉ ؉ in H 2 SO 4 . Three kinds of acid (H 2 SO 4 , HNO 3 , and HCl) and a wide variety of their concentrations and ozone-oxidation temperatures were tested to produce a well-

✦ Synopsis
A single-phase -MnO 2 without any large stabilizing cations was successfully prepared by starting from hollandite-type (NH 4 ) x Mn 8 O 16 and quenching from 440°C during heating in flowing Ar. The unit-cell dimension was determined by XRD analysis to be a ؍ 10.308(2) A s and c ؍ 2.854(1) A s . In comparison with that of the starting material (a ؍ 9.896(1) A s and c ؍ 2.859(1) A s ), the a dimension increased while the c dimension changed little. No presence of ammonium ions in the structure of this specimen was shown by IR spectroscopy, the Kjeldahl analysis, or temperature-programmed-desorption (TPD) measurement. The structural change from the hollandite phase to Mn 2 O 3 was observed at 540°C. TPD analysis indicates the presence of nitrogen other than ammonium ions in the hollandite material we prepared, and also suggests that this nitrogen might have a strong chemical interaction to the hollandite structure. 1999 Academic Press
