Two new pentavalent bismuthates, CaBi2O6−x·1.1H2O and PbBi2O6−x·H2O were prepared from NaBiO3·nH2O. Broadened X-ray powder diffraction patterns for both bismuthates were indexed to the hexagonal cell observed for PbSb2O6-type SrBi2O6. The lattice parameters were a = 0.555(1) and c = 0.530(1) nm for CaBi2O6−x·1.1H2O an…
