Combining MN6 Octahedra and PN5 Trigonal Bipyramids in the Mica‐like Nitridophosphates MP6N11 (M=Al, In)

Abstract: Layered silicates are a very versatile class of materials with high importance to humanity. The new nitridophosphates MP6N11 (M=Al, In), synthesized from MCl3, P3N5 and NH4N3 in a high‐pressure high‐temperature reaction at 1100 °C and 8 GPa, show a mica‐like layer setup and feature rare nitrogen coordination motifs. The crystal structure of AlP6N11 was elucidated from synchrotron single‐crystal diffraction data (space group Cm (no. 8), a=4.9354(10), b=8.1608(16), c=9.0401(18) Å, β=98.63(3)°), enabling Rietveld… Show more

“…Analogous to the isoelectronic combination of elements Si/O, forming SiO 4 tetrahedra, compounds mostly consist of PN 4 tetrahedra as basic structural building units. The tetrahedra can be found isolated, connected to small rings, chains, layers, or three-dimensional (3D) networks. Interconnections of tetrahedra are mostly realized as vertex-sharing; however, edge-sharing has also been reported. Besides PN 4 tetrahedra, PN 5 pyramids, either square based (e.g., in γ-P 3 N 5 ) or trigonal bipyramidal (e.g., in γ-HP 4 N 7 or M P 6 N 11 (M = Al, In)) are occasionally encountered. Even PN 6 octahedra have been reported, e.g., in β-BP 3 N 6 at 42 GPa and δ-P 3 N 5 at 72 GPa. , This abundance of structural motifs leads to nitridophosphates finding use in a broad range of applications. For example, the binary phosphorus­(V) nitride P 3 N 5 is used as a gate insulator in metal–insulator-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MISFETs) and was also investigated as a flame retardant or for safety in pyrotechnics. The nitridic clathrate P 4 N 4 (NH) 4 (NH) 3 was discussed as a gas storage material .…”
