Abstract

A new open-framework iron(III) phosphate, I, $[C_2N_2H_{10}][Fe_2(HPO_4)_4]$ has been hydrothermally synthesized in the presence of ethylenediamine (en). The structure is built up from the vertex linkages between the $FeO_6$ octahedra and the $PO_4$ tetrahedra, strictly alternating, forming the three-dimensional architecture. The linkages between the $FeO_6$ and $PO_4$ polyhedra gives rise to ladder-like edge-shared chains, which are connected variously forming two types of channels. The di-protonated en molecules occupy these channels. Crystal data for I, $[C_2N_2H_{10}] [Fe_2P_4O_{16}]$: a = 9.341(1), b = 8.892(1), $c = 9.480(1) \AA$, $\beta = 117.6(1)^o$, $V = 698.1(1) \AA^3$, space group P2/n (No. 13), Z = 2, M = 557.7, $D_{calc} = 2.65 g cm^{-3}$, $MoK\alpha (\lambda = 0.71073 \AA)$, $R_1 = 0.03$, $wR_2 = 0.08$ and S = 1.10. Magnetic susceptibility studies indicate a predominantly antiferromagnetic interaction with $T_N = 30 K$.
