We have studied the charge exchange and compositional dependence of the sandwich thickness of stage-1 alkali-ammonia ternary graphite intercalation compounds K (NH 3) x C y, 0≤ x≤ 4.33, 12≤ y≤ 24. A model of the sandwich energy is presented which explicitly accounts for x-dependent charge exchange and size or stiffness effects and is in excellent agreement with experimental measurements of the dependence of the (00l) x-ray diffraction patterns on ammonia vapor pressure. From this model we find that for the stage-1 compound K (NH 3) 4.33 C 24, f= 0.95 and that the NH 3 molecules solvate some of the electron charge which was originally donated to the carbon layers in the KC 24 starting material. In addition, the NH 3 molecules form planar fourfold-coordinated K (NH 3) 4 clusters and hence also solvate the K+ ions in graphite galleries. We suggest that the K (NH 3) 4 clusters together with ‘‘spacer’’NH 3 molecules constitute the two-dimensional structural analog of the well-studied bulk, three-dimensional metal-ammonia solutions.
