Abstract: | Fe2PO5 is prepared from diverse components of the Fe---P---O system at 900°C in sealed silica tubes in vacuum. The study of a single crystal shows an orthorhombic cell, space group Pnma, with a = 7.378, B = 6.445, C = 7.471 Å and Z = 4. The structure is determined through direct methods and Fourier syntheses and refined to R = 0.027. The phosphorus fills isolated tetrahedra. The FeII and FeIII ions are ordered in distorted octahedra: the octahedra surrounding FeII build strings parallel to the b axis and share edges; the octahedra containing FeIII are connected on both sides of these strings alternatively with the PO4 tetrahedra. The two types of octahedra share one face. Such an arrangement strongly recalls two out of the three Al2SiO5 polymorphs, namely, the kyanite and sillimanite. The Mössbauer spectroscopy exhibits a magnetic transition at 220 K. Below, the spectrum shows a six-line hyperfine pattern for FeIII and an eight-lines one for FeII with a rather weak hyperfine field; above, there are two well differentiated doublets, confirming the absence of electronic charge transfer at room temperature. The magnetic susceptibility, recorded from 90 to 300 K, is typically that of an antiferromagnetic compound with CM = 7.12, θp = −350 K and TN 250 K. The magnetic interactions are discussed. The electronic localization is explained through structural and crystal field considerations; the electrostatic potential difference between the FeII and FeIII sites is calculated. |
