Hydrothermal synthesis and structure characterization of a new 3D vanadium hydrogen phosphite with 14-ring channels: (C5N2H14)[VO(H2O)]3(HPO3)4·H2O

A new 3D vanadium hydrogen phosphite, (C5N2H14)[VO(H2O)]3(HPO3)4·H2O, has been prepared by hydrothermal reactions and characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and magnetic techniques. It crystallizes in the triclinic space group P-1 (no. 2) with image, image, image, image, image, image, image. The structure is built up from sharing equatorial oxygen atoms of VO5(H2O) octahedra with HPO3 tetrahedra, which can be viewed as a (3,4) connected net. The framework is mainly constructed by two types of four-ring related chains. Intrachain and interchain hydrogen bonds play an important role on supporting the framework structure. The 14-ring tunnels in the structure are filled with 1-methypiperazinium and water molecules, which also contribute the hydrogen bonding with the vanadium phosphite framework.
