Transformations of low-dimensional zinc phosphates to complex open-framework structures. Part 1: zero-dimensional to one-, two- and three-dimensional structures

Syntheses, structures and magnetic properties of two new one-dimensional cobalt (II) phosphites with organic amines acting as ligands

“…The pyridine ligands are attached to the cobalt atoms and extend to each side of the ladder structure. This arrangement is similar in profile to the ladder-like chains of zinc phosphates [24,46], zinc phosphites [47] and zinc sulfite [48]. The 3D structure packing diagram of 1 is shown in Fig.…”

C5H14NO·ZnCl(HPO3), an unexpected product from an ionic-liquid synthesis

“…Consequently, chunky, faceted crystals of the known compound Zn 2 -(H 2 O) 4 (HPO 3 ) 2 AE H 2 O [8] grew in the solution and were identified on the basis of their unit-cell dimensions. The fact that a zinc phosphate shows solubility in water is unusual, but similar framework transformations reactions of templated zinc phosphates [9] have been seen previously. Conversely, 1 is indefinitely stable in acetone and dissolves very slowly in ethanol.…”

Solvothermal synthesis of an open-framework zinc chlorophosphate, [C8N4H26][Zn3Cl(HPO4)3(PO4)], with a layer structure

“…In the family of open-framework phosphates, zinc phosphates occupy a prime position. Thus, zinc phosphates with zero- [2][3][4], one- [5][6][7][8][9], two- [10][11][12][13] and three-dimensionally [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24] extended structures have been prepared and characterized. The zinc phosphates, in general, are synthesized employing hydrothermal methods in the presence of organic amine molecules.…”
