Single crystals ofNaxTiO2(x∼ 0.5)with the rhombohedral α-NaFeO2-type structure were successfully prepared from high-temperature solutions of sodium metal and titanium dioxide. The structure refinement by a single crystal X-ray diffraction study confirmed a triangular lattice outstanding two-dimensionality of Na0.54TiO2and the space groupR¯3mwith the finalR= 5.7% (Rw= 5.1%)for 170 independent observed reflections. The lattice parameters of the present Na0.54TiO2crystal area= 2.9791(6)Å,c= 16.928(3)Å, andV= 130.11(5)Å3. These crystals are strongly attacked by air atmosphere, and a remarkable lattice contraction toward thec-axis direction in the trigonal lattice was observed when the Na contents were decreased. The most highly contracted lattice constants for the compound with the chemical formula Na0.3TiO2area= 2.9665(5)Å,c= 15.755(9)Å, andV= 120.07(8)Å3.
