Tetrahedral-Network Organo-Zincophosphates: Syntheses and Structures of (N(2)C(6)H(14)).Zn(HPO(4))(2).H(2)O, H(3)N(CH(2))(3)NH(3).Zn(2)(HPO(4))(3) and (N(2)C(6)H(14)).Zn(3)(HPO(4))(4)
The solution-mediated syntheses and single crystal structures of (N2C6H14)·Zn(HPO4)2·H2O (I), H3N(CH2)3NH3·Zn2(HPO4)3 (II), and (N2C6H14)·Zn3(HPO4)4 (III) are described. These phases contain vertex-sharing Zn04 and HP04 tetrahedra, accompanied by doubly- protonated organic cations. Despite their formal chemical relationship, as members of the series of t·Znn(HP04)n+1 (t= template, n = 1-3), these phases adopt fimdamentally different crystal structures, as one-dimensional, two-dimensional, and three-dimensional Zn04/HP04 networks, for I, II, and III respectively. Similarities and differences to some other zinc phosphates are briefly discussed.
