Novel K/Mn phosphate hydrates,K2Mn3(H2O)2[P2O7]2 and KMn(H2O)2[Al2(PO4)3]: hydrothermal synthesis and crystal chemistry

Two novel K/Mn phosphate hydrates, namely, dipotassium trimanganese dipyrophosphate dihydrate, K₂Mn₃(H₂O)₂[P₂O₇]₂, (I), and potassium manganese dialuminium triphosphate dihydrate, KMn(H₂O)₂[Al₂(PO₄)₃], (II), were obtained in the form of single crystals during a single hydrothermal synthesis experiment. Their crystal structures were studied by X‐ray diffraction. Both new compounds are members of the morphotropic series of phosphates with the following formulae: A₂M₃(H₂O)₂[P₂O₇]₂, where A = K, NH₄, Rb or Na and M = Mn, Fe, Co or Ni, and AM²⁺(H₂O)₂[M³⁺₂(PO₄)₃], where A = Cs, Rb, K, NH₄ or (H₃O); M²⁺ = Mn, Fe, Co or Ni; and M³⁺ = Al, Ga or Fe. A detailed crystal chemical analysis revealed correlations between the unit‐cell parameters of the members of the series, their structural features and the sizes of the cations. It has been shown that a mixed type anionic framework is formed in (II) by aluminophosphate [(AlO₂)₂(PO₄)₂]_∞ layers, with a cationic topology similar to the Si/Al‐topology of the crystal structures of feldspars. A study of the magnetic susceptibility of (II) demonstrates a paramagnetic behaviour of the compound.

Hydrothermal Synthesis,Crystal Structure and Characterizations of Two New Manganese(II) Phosphonates with a 3D Framework Structure

Two new manganese(II) phosphonates, (NH₄)Mn_2.5[(O₃PCH(OH)CO₂)₂(H₂O)] ( 1 ) and [NH₃(CH₂)₄NH₃]_0.5Mn_2.5[(O₃PCH(OH)CO₂)₂(H₂O)] ( 2 ) have been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions and structurally characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction as well as with infrared spectroscopy, elemental analysis and thermogravimetric analysis. The two isomorphous compounds feature a 3D framework structure. The Mn(1)O₆ and Mn(3)O₅ polyhedra are bridged by the CPO₃ tetraheda into a Mn^II phosphonate layer in ac‐plane. Mn(2)O₆ polyhedra are linked to each other by CPO₃ tetraheda to form infinite chains, which are connected to layers by carboxylate groups to form a 3D framework structure with channels along the a‐ and c‐axis, respectively. The NH₄⁺ ions or protonated 1, 4‐butylenediamine cations are located inside the channels along the a axis.     

Syntheses and Crystal Structures of Two New Open‐Framework Tin(II) Phosphates: Sn5O2(PO4)2 and Sn4O(PO4)2

Two new three‐dimensional neutral open‐framework tin(II) phosphates, Sn₅O₂(PO₄)₂ and Sn₄O(PO₄)₂, were synthesized under hydrothermal conditions with different ratio of tin(II) oxalate, phosphoric acid and 4,4′‐diaminodiphenylmethane. Their crystal structures have been solved by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction methods. Sn₅O₂(PO₄)₂ crystallizes in the space group and contains six‐membered ring and twelve‐membered ring channels running parallel to the b axis. Sn₄O(PO₄)₂ crystallizes in the space group P2₁/n and contains intersecting eight‐membered ring channels. These two compounds have rare trigonal‐planar Sn₃O.     

Cationic,neutral and anionic metal(II) complexes derived from 4‐oxo‐4H‐pyran‐2,6‐dicarboxylic acid (chelidonic acid)

The structures of five metal complexes containing the 4‐oxo‐4H‐pyran‐2,6‐dicarboxylate dianion illustrate the remarkable coordinating versatility of this ligand and the great structural diversity of its complexes. In tetraaquaberyllium 4‐oxo‐4H‐pyran‐2,6‐dicarboxylate, [Be(H₂O)₄](C₇H₂O₆), (I), the ions are linked by eight independent O—H...O hydrogen bonds to form a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded framework structure. Each of the ions in hydrazinium(2+) diaqua(4‐oxo‐4H‐pyran‐2,6‐dicarboxylato)calcate, (N₂H₆)[Ca(C₇H₂O₆)₂(H₂O)₂], (II), lies on a twofold rotation axis in the space group P2/c; the anions form hydrogen‐bonded sheets which are linked into a three‐dimensional framework by the cations. In bis(μ‐4‐oxo‐4H‐pyran‐2,6‐dicarboxylato)bis[tetraaquamanganese(II)] tetrahydrate, [Mn₂(C₇H₂O₆)₂(H₂O)₈]·4H₂O, (III), the metal ions and the organic ligands form a cyclic centrosymmetric Mn₂(C₇H₂O₆)₂ unit, and these units are linked into a complex three‐dimensional framework structure containing 12 independent O—H...O hydrogen bonds. There are two independent Cu^II ions in tetraaqua(4‐oxo‐4H‐pyran‐2,6‐dicarboxylato)copper(II), [Cu(C₇H₂O₆)(H₂O)₄], (IV), and both lie on centres of inversion in the space group P; the metal ions and the organic ligands form a one‐dimensional coordination polymer, and the polymer chains are linked into a three‐dimensional framework containing eight independent O—H...O hydrogen bonds. Diaqua(4‐oxo‐4H‐pyran‐2,6‐dicarboxylato)cadmium monohydrate, [Cd(C₇H₂O₆)(H₂O)₂]·H₂O, (V), forms a three‐dimensional coordination polymer in which the organic ligand is coordinated to four different Cd sites, and this polymer is interwoven with a complex three‐dimensional framework built from O—H...O hydrogen bonds.     

Synthesis,crystal structures and magnetic and electrochemiluminescence properties of three manganese(II) complexes

Three novel complexes, namely, penta‐μ‐acetato‐bis(μ₂‐2‐{[2‐(6‐chloropyridin‐2‐yl)hydrazinylidene]methyl}‐6‐methoxyphenolato)‐μ‐formato‐tetramanganese(II), [Mn₄(C₁₃H₁₁ClN₃O₂)₂(C₂H₃O₂)_5.168(CHO₂)_0.832], 1 , hexa‐μ₂‐acetato‐bis(μ₂‐2‐{[2‐(6‐bromopyridin‐2‐yl)hydrazinylidene]methyl}‐6‐methoxyphenolato)tetramanganese(II), [Mn₄(C₁₃H₁₁BrN₃O₂)₂(C₂H₃O₂)₆], 2 , and catena‐poly[[μ₂‐acetato‐acetatoaqua(μ₂‐2‐{[2‐(6‐chloropyridin‐2‐yl)hydrazinylidene]methyl}‐6‐methoxyphenolato)dimanganese(II)]‐μ₂‐acetato], [Mn₂(C₁₃H₁₁ClN₃O₂)(C₂H₃O₂)₃(H₂O)]_n, 3 , have been synthesized using solvothermal methods. Complexes 1 – 3 were characterized by IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. Complexes 1 and 2 are tetranuclear manganese clusters, while complex 3 has a one‐dimensional network based on tetranuclear Mn₄(L¹)₂(CH₃COO)₆(H₂O)₂ building units (L¹ is 2‐{[2‐(6‐chloropyridin‐2‐yl)hydrazinylidene]methyl}‐6‐methoxyphenolate). Magnetic studies reveal that complexes 1 – 3 display dominant antiferromagnetic interactions between Mn^II ions through μ₂‐O bridges. In addition, 1 – 3 also display favourable electrochemiluminescence (ECL) properties.     

The solid solution (Fe0.81Al0.19)(H2PO4)3 with a strong hydrogen bond

Single crystals of the solid solution iron aluminium tris(dihydrogenphosphate), (Fe_0.81Al_0.19)(H₂PO₄)₃, have been prepared under hydrothermal conditions. The compound is a new monoclinic variety (γ‐form) of iron aluminium phosphate (Fe,Al)(H₂PO₄)₃. The structure is based on a two‐dimensional framework of distorted corner‐sharing MO₆ (M = Fe, Al) polyhedra sharing corners with PO₄ tetrahedra. Strong hydrogen bonds between the OH groups of the H₂PO₄ tetrahedra and the O atoms help to consolidate the crystal structure.     

Hydrothermal Synthesis and Crystal Structure of CaIn2(PO4)2(HPO4): An octahedral-tetrahedral framework ternary calcium indium(III) phosphate

The new ternary calcium indium(III) phosphate CaIn₂(PO₄)₂(HPO₄) with mixed octahedral-tetrahedral framework was synthesized through hydrothermal reaction of stoichiometric amounts of CaO and InCl₃ with excess of H₃PO₄ and H₂O at pH = 1. Single crystal x-ray diffraction studies show the compound to crystallize in monoclinic symmetry, space group P2₁/n (#14) with a = 657.08(6), b = 2023.7(2), c = 665.72(7) pm, β = 91.20(1)°, Z = 4 and R = 0.043. The framework is built up of dimers of edge-sharing InO₆ octahedra forming In₂O₁₀ units sharing all their OXO ligands with PO₄ tetrahedra, and HPO₄ groups.     

Crystal Growth,Single‐Crystal Structure Refinement and Unusual Ligand‐Field Splittings of Lazulite‐Type Oxidephosphates MTi2O2(PO4)2 (M = FeII,CoII, NiII)

Single crystals of oxidephosphates MTi₂O₂(PO₄)₂ [M: Fe (dark red), Co (pinkish red), Ni (green)] with edge‐lengths up to 0.4 mm were grown by chemical vapour transport. FeTi₂O₂(PO₄)₂ and CoTi₂O₂(PO₄)₂ are isotypic to NiTi₂O₂(PO₄)₂. The crystal structure of the latter was previously solved from powder data [FeTi₂O₂(PO₄)₂ (data for CoTi₂O₂(PO₄)₂ and NiTi₂O₂(PO₄)₂ in brackets): monoclinic, P2₁/c, Z = 2, a = 7.394(3) (7.381(6), 7.388(4)) Å, b = 7.396(2) (7.371(5), 7.334(10)) Å, c = 7.401(3) (7.366(6), 7.340(3)) Å, β = 120.20(3) (120.26(6), 120.12(4))°, R₁ = 0.0393 (0.0309, 0.0539) wR₂ = 0.1154 (0.0740, 0.1389), 2160 (1059, 1564) independent reflections, 75 (76, 77) variables]. The single‐crystal study allowed improved refinement using anisotropic displacement parameters, yielded lower standard deviations for the structural parameters and revealed a small amount of cation disordering. Twinning and cation disordering within the structures are rationalized by a detailed crystallographic classification of the MTi₂O₂(PO₄)₂ structure type in terms of group‐subgroup relations. The structure is characterized by a three‐dimensional network of [PO₄] tetrahedra and [M^IITi₂O₁₂] groups formed by face‐sharing of [M^IIO₆] and [TiO₆] octahedra. Electronic absorption spectra of MTi₂O₂(PO₄)₂ in the UV/VIS/NIR region show rather large ligand‐field splittings for the strongly trigonally distorted chromophors [M^IIO₆] (M = Fe, Co, Ni) with interelectronic repulsion parameters beeing slightly smaller than in other phosphates. Interpretation of the spectra within the framework of the angular overlap model reveals a significant second‐sphere ligand field effect of Ti^IV ions on the electronic levels of the Ni^II and Co^II.     

Preparation,Single Crystal Structure Analysis,and Thermal Behaviour of the Acidic Mercury(I) Phosphate (Hg2)2(H2PO4)(PO4)

Yellowish single crystals of acidic mercury(I) phosphate (Hg₂)₂(H₂PO₄)(PO₄) were obtained at 200 °C under hydrothermal conditions in 32% HF from a starting complex of microcrystalline (Hg₂)₂P₂O₇. Refinement of single crystal data converged at a conventional residual R[F² > 2σ(F²)] = 3.8% (C2/c, Z = 8, a = 9.597(2) Å, b = 12.673(2) Å, c = 7.976(1) Å, β = 110.91(1)°, V = 906.2(2) ų, 1426 independent reflections > 2σ out of 4147 reflections, 66 variables). The crystal structure consists of Hg₂²⁺‐dumbbells and discrete phosphate groups H₂PO₄^– and PO₄^3–. The Hg₂²⁺ pairs are built of two crystallographically independent Hg atoms with a distance d(Hg1–Hg2) = 2.5240(6) Å. The oxygen coordination sphere around the mercury atoms is asymmetric with three O atoms for Hg1 and four O atoms for Hg2. The oxygen atoms belong to the different PO₄ tetrahedra, which in case of H₂PO₄‐groups are connected by hydrogen bonding. Upon heating over 230 °C, (Hg₂)₂(H₂PO₄)(PO₄) condenses to (Hg₂)₂P₂O₇, which in turn disproportionates at higher temperatures into Hg₂P₂O₇ and elemental mercury.     

Ein neuartiger Zugang zu reduzierten Polyoxomolybdaten mit komplexen Gegenionen – Synthese und Struktur von [Mn(CH3OH)6][Mo8O16(OCH3)8(C2O4)]

The tetranuclear compound [Mo₂(O₂C‐tBu)₃]₂(μ‐C₂O₄) ( 1 ) that is prepared from [Mo₂(O₂C‐tBu)₃]₄ and oxalic acid, was reacted with MnI₂ · 2THF to form the polyoxomolybdate compound [Mn(CH₃OH)₆] [Mo₈O₁₆(OCH₃)₈(C₂O₄)] ( 2 ) in a complex redox reaction. Crystals of 2 were analyzed by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction showing a octanuclear polyoxomolybdate dianion in which the Mo=O moieties are alternately connected through μ‐oxo and μ‐methoxo units. Charge balance in 2 is realized by a manganese(II) cation that is octahedrally coordinated by methanol ligands. The crystal structure is dominated by strong hydrogen bond interactions of the O–H ··· O type of methanol molecules coordinated to manganese as well as additional methanol molecules in the crystal lattice.     

Transition Metal Complexes Containing Dihydrogen Hypodiphosphate in Eclipsed Conformation as Ligand: Preparation,Crystal Structure,Vibrational Spectra,and Thermal Behavior of K2[M(H2P2O6)2(H2O)2]·H2O (M = Co,Ni, Cu,and Zn)

The transition metal dihydrogen hypodiphosphate hydrates K₂[Co(H₂P₂O₆)₂(H₂O)₂] · H₂O ( 1 ), K₂[Ni(H₂P₂O₆)₂(H₂O)₂] · H₂O ( 2 ), K₂[Cu(H₂P₂O₆)₂(H₂O)₂] · H₂O ( 3 ) and K₂[Zn(H₂P₂O₆)₂(H₂O)₂] · H₂O ( 4 ) were synthesized and characterized by single crystal structure determination. The compounds 1 – 4 crystallize isotypic in the monoclinic space group C2/m (no. 12) with two formula units in the unit cell. The crystal structure is built up by [H₂P₂O₆]^2– units in an eclipsed conformation, by the corresponding transition metal, potassium cations, and water molecules. The eclipsed conformation of the [H₂P₂O₆]^2– has not been previously observed in none of known hypodiphosphates(IV) analyzed via X‐ray diffraction. However, its proposed based on spectroscopic methods. FT‐IR/FIR and FT‐Raman spectra of the crystalline salts were recorded and the thermal behavior of the compounds was investigated.     

Canted antiferromagnet superimposed on a buckled kagomé network in RbMn4(PO4)3

Rubidium tetramanganese tris(phosphate), RbMn₄(PO₄)₃, has been synthesized as single crystals under hydrothermal conditions. The crystal structure was refined in the space group Pnnm (D_2h¹²). It is argued that the size factor R_M/R_A, i.e. the ratio of the A⁺ ionic radius to the M²⁺ ionic radius, within the morphotropic series AM₄(TO₄)₃ corresponds to a specific type of crystal structure. At low temperatures, the antiferromagnet superimposed on a buckled kagomé network in RbMn₄(PO₄)₃ experiences a transition into a long‐range ordered state with finite spontaneous magnetization. First principles calculations provide the dominant magnetic exchange interactions both within and between the kagomé layers. The analysis of these interactions allows us to suggest a model of alternating ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic arrangements within chains of Mn3 atoms.     

Das erste Vanadium(III)‐Borophosphat: Darstellung und Kristallstruktur von CsV3(H2O)2[B2P4O16(OH)4]

The First Vanadium(III) Borophosphate: Synthesis and Crystal Structure of CsV₃(H₂O)₂[B₂P₄O₁₆(OH)₄] CsV₃(H₂O)₂[B₂P₄O₁₆(OH)₄] was prepared under mild hydrothermal conditions (T = 165 °C) from mixtures of CsOH_(aq), VCl₃, H₃BO₃, and H₃PO₄ (molar ratio 1 : 1 : 1 : 2). The crystal structure was determined by X‐ray single crystal methods (monoclinic; space group C2/m, No. 12): a = 958.82(15) pm, b = 1840.8(4) pm, c = 503.49(3) pm; β = 110.675(4)°; Z = 2. The anionic partial structure contains oligomeric units [BP₂O₈(OH)₂]^5–, which are built up by a central BO₂(OH)₂ tetrahedron and two PO₄ tetrahedra sharing common corners. V^III is octahedrally coordinated by oxygen of adjacent phosphate tetrahedra and OH groups of borate tetrahedra as well as oxygen of phosphate tetrahedra and H₂O molecules, respectively (coordination octahedra VO₄(OH)₂ and VO₄(H₂O)₂). The oxidation state +3 for vanadium was confirmed by measurements of the magnetic susceptibility. The trimeric borophosphate groups are connected via vanadium centres to form layers with octahedra‐tetrahedra ring systems, which are likewise linked via V^III‐coordination octahedra. Overall, a three‐dimensional framework constructed from VO₄(OH)₂ and VO₄(H₂O)₂ octahedra as well as BO₂(OH)₂ and PO₄ tetrahedra results. The structure contains channels running along [001], which are occupied by Cs⁺ in a distorted octahedral coordination (CsO₄(H₂O)₂).     

CsAlZr2(PO4)4: an anhydrous aluminium zirconium phosphate with a novel three‐dimensional framework

Caesium aluminium dizirconium tetrakis[phosphate(V)], CsAlZr₂(PO₄)₄, has been synthesized by high‐temperature reaction and studied by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction at room temperature. This represents the first detailed structural analysis of an anhydrous phosphate containing both zirconium and aluminium. The structure features a complicated three‐dimensional framework of [AlZr₂(PO₄)₄] constructed by PO₄, AlO₄ and ZrO₆ polyhedra interconnected via corner‐sharing O atoms, and one‐dimensional Cs chains which are located in the infinite tunnels within the [AlZr₂(PO₄)₄] framework, which run along the c axis. The Cs, Al, one P and two O atoms lie on a mirror plane, while a second P atom lies on a twofold axis.     

An Organically Templated Copper Pentaborate with Infinite Metallo-chains:[Cu(C3N2H4)4][Cu(CH3COO)2(C3N2H4)2(H2O)2][B5O6(OH)4]2

A novel organically templated copper pentaborate, [Cu(C₃N₂H₄)₄][Cu(CH₃COO)₂(C₃N₂H₄)₂(H₂O)₂]‐ [B₅O₆(OH)₄]₂, was synthesized by hydrothermal reaction and characterized by elemental analysis, single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction, FT‐IR spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy and TGA. The crystal structure of this compound consists of two copper‐centered polyhedra and two discrete [B₅O₆(OH)₄]^? pentaborate anions, which are linked together through intensive hydrogen bonding interactions, forming a 3D framework with large channels along c axis. The discrete pentaborate anions form infinite layers by hydrogen bonds. Moreover, the two crystallographically different octahedral coppers are connected by common oxygen atom to form an infinite chain.     

Crystal structure and proton conductivity of a new Cs3(H2PO4)(HPO4)·2H2O phase in the caesium di‐ and monohydrogen orthophosphate system

The M_x H_y (A O₄)_z acid salts (M = Cs, Rb, K, Na, Li, NH₄; A = S, Se, As, P) exhibit ferroelectric properties. The solid acids have low conductivity values and are of interest with regard to their thermal properties and proton conductivity. The crystal structure of caesium dihydrogen orthophosphate monohydrogen orthophosphate dihydrate, Cs₃(H_1.5PO₄)₂·2H₂O, has been solved. The compound crystallizes in the space group Pbca and forms a structure with strong hydrogen bonds connecting phosphate tetrahedra that agrees well with the IR spectra. The dehydration of Cs₃(H_1.5PO₄)₂·2H₂O with the loss of two water molecules occurs at 348–433 K. Anhydrous Cs₃(H_1.5PO₄)₂ is stable up to 548 K and is then converted completely into caesium pyrophosphate (Cs₄P₂O₇) and CsPO₃. Anhydrous Cs₃(H_1.5PO₄)₂ crystallizes in the monoclinic C 2 space group, with the unit‐cell parameters a = 11.1693 (4), b = 6.4682 (2), c = 7.7442 (3) Å and β = 71.822 (2)°. The conductivities of both compounds have been measured. In contrast to crystal hydrate Cs₃(H_1.5PO₄)₂·2H₂O, the dehydrated form has rather low conductivity values of ∼6 × 10⁻⁶–10⁻⁸ S cm⁻¹ at 373–493 K, with an activation energy of 0.91 eV.     

Silver Vanadyl(IV) ortho‐Pyrophosphate: Synthesis,Crystal Structure,and Characterization of the (V≡O)2+ Group

Ag₆(V^IVO)₂(PO₄)₂(P₂O₇) was obtained by reaction of Ag₃PO₄ and (VO)₂P₂O₇ (sealed ampoule, 550 °C, 3 d). The crystal structure of the new mixed ortho‐pyrophosphate was determined from X‐ray single‐crystal data [Pnma, Z = 4, a = 12.759(3) Å, b = 17.340(4) Å, c = 6.418(1) Å, R₁ = 0.071, wR₂ = 0.184 for 3174 unique reflections with F_o > 4σ(F_o), 141 variables]. Ag⁺ ions are located in between layers [(V^IVO)₂(PO₄)₂(P₂O₇)]^6–. Equilibrium relations of the new phosphate to neighboring phases were determined. The electronic structure of the (V^IV≡O)²⁺ group was investigated by polarized electronic absorption spectroscopy (ν̃_1a = 9450 cm^–1, ν̃_1b = 9950 cm^–1, ν̃₂ = 14750 cm^–1), EPR spectroscopy [X‐ and Q‐band, powder and single crystal, orthorhombic crystal g‐tensor with g₁ = 1.9445(3), g₂ = 1.9521(3), g₃ = 1.9695(3)], and magnetic measurements (powder, μ_exp/μ_B = 1.71, Θ_p = –1.7 K).     

Characterization of Two Zincophosphates (UH‐6 and UH‐10) Synthesized using the Cobalt(III) Sarcophagine Complex as Structure‐directing Agent

The novel zincophosphates UH‐6 (sum formula |[Co(diAMHsar)]| [Zn₂(HPO₄)₃(PO₄)] · H₂O) and UH‐10 (sum formula |([Co(diAMHsar)])₂| [{Zn₂(HPO₄)₃(PO₄)}₂] · H₂O) were synthesized in hydrothermal syntheses employing the chiral sarcophagine complex [Co(diAMHsar)]⁵⁺ as the structure‐directing agent. The inorganic part of UH‐6 consists of pearl‐like chains of alternating [ZnO₄] and [PO₄] tetrahedra, which are connected to the incorporated cobalt complex via numerous hydrogen bonds. UH‐10 was synthesized under similar conditions, but at higher reaction temperatures. In consequence, the crystal structures of UH‐6 and UH‐10 are closely related, although systematic disorder in UH‐10 and the lower symmetry result in a unit cell twice as large as the corresponding unit cell of UH‐6. Interestingly, in both zincophosphates only one enantiomer of the cobalt complex is present, despite the fact that a racemic mixture of the complex salt is used for synthesis. Thermogravimetric analysis and powder X‐ray diffraction of a thermally treated sample of UH‐6 reveals a phase transformation at ca. 300 °C.
