Abstract

Two Neutral Open-Framework Metal Phosphites with Ten-Ring Channels Constructed by Three-, Four-, and Five-Connected Centers. -Two isostructural open-framework phosphites, [M2(H2O)3(HPO3)3]·H2O (M: Al, In) are hydrothermally synthesized from mixtures of Al(NO3)3 or InCl3, H3PO3, cyclohexanebis(methylamine) and H2O (pH 1.5-2, 180°C, autoclave, 6 d) and characterized by powder and single crystal XRD. The compounds crystallize in the monoclinic space group P21 with Z = 2. The structure contains HPO 3 and MO 6 groups with intersecting eight-and 10-ring channels. -(YANG, Y.; ZHAO*, Y.; YU, J.; PANG, N.; SU, H.; PANG, S.; Chem. Lett.
