X-ray diffraction and vibrational data for a series of triphosphates type MIINa3P3O10.12H2O (MII = Cu,Ni and Mg) and their anhydrous forms MIINa3P3O10

Chemical preparation methods, X-ray diffraction and vibrational data are reported for six triphosphates type M^IINa₃P₃O₁₀.12H₂O (M^II = Cu, Ni and Mg) and their anhydrous forms M^IINa₃P₃O₁₀. These condensed phosphates are respectively, CuNa₃P₃O₁₀.12H₂O, MgNa₃P₃O₁₀.12H₂O, NiNa₃P₃O₁₀.12H₂O, CuNa₃P₃O₁₀, NiNa₃P₃O₁₀ and MgNa₃P₃O₁₀. The hydrate triphosphates were prepared by the method of ion-exchange resin, where as their anhydrous forms were prepared by total thermal dehydration of M^IINa₃P₃O₁₀.12H₂O (M^II = Cu, Ni and Mg).CuNa₃P₃O₁₀.12H₂O, MgNa₃P₃O₁₀.12H₂O and NiNa₃P₃O₁₀.12H₂O are isotypic, and crystallize in the monoclinic system, space group is P2₁/n, Z = 4, the unit-cell parameters are: CuNa3P3O10.12H2O, a = 15.052(8) Å, b = 9.234(3) Å,c = 14.767(8) Å and β = 90.03(5)°.
