Abstract: Synchrotron X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman spectroscopy in laser heated diamond anvil cells and first principles molecular dynamics (FPMD) calculations have been used to investigate the reactivity of calcite and molecular hydrogen (H2) at high pressures up to 120 GPa. We find that hydrogen reacts with calcite starting below 0.5 GPa at room temperature forming chemical bonds with carbon and oxygen. This results in the unit cell volume expansion; the hydrogenation level is much higher for powdered samples. Single-crystal XRD measurements at 8–24 GPa reveal the presence of previously reported III, IIIb, and VI calcite phases; some crystallites show up to 4% expansion, which is consistent with the incorporation of ≤ 1 hydrogen atom per formula unit. At 40–102 GPa XRD patterns of hydrogenated calcite demonstrate broadened features consistent with the calcite VI structure with incorporated hydrogen atoms. Above 80 GPa, the Csingle bondO stretching mode of calcite splits suggesting a change in the coordination of Csingle bondO bonds. Laser heating at 110 GPa results in the formation of Csingle bondC bonds manifested in the crystallization of diamond recorded by in situ XRD at 300 K and 110 GPa and by Raman spectroscopy on recovered samples commenced with C$^{13}$ calcite. We explored several theoretical models, which show that incorporation of atomic hydrogen results in local distortions of CO3 groups, formation of corner-shared Csingle bondO polyhedra, and chemical bonding of H to C and O, which leads to the lattice expansion and vibrational features consistent with the experiments. The experimental and theoretical results support recent reports on tetrahedral C coordination in high-pressure carbonate glasses and suggest a possible source of the origin of ultradeep diamonds.
