A 60-year-old problem with the atomic arrangements and exact compositions of alkali polytungstates related to hexagonal tungsten bronze (HTB) was solved. The systems WO-WO ( = K, Rb) were restudied and the average monoclinic layered structures of stoichiometric polytungstates WO ( = K, Rb, Cs, Tl) and WO ( = K, Rb, Cs) were first successfully determined. The structures resemble those of "MoWO" and "MoWO" (J.

A new triple tungstate RbAgSc(WO) (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.15) synthesized by solid state reactions and spontaneous crystallization from melts presents a new structure type related to those of CsNaYb(MoO) and NaSrTa(PO). The title compound in centrosymmetric space group Cmcm contains dimers of two ScO octahedra sharing corners with three bridging WO tetrahedra.
