Abstract
A novel vanadium(IV) phosphite, (VO)(4)(4,4'-bpy)(2)(HPO(3))(4), was hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. This compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system with the space group C2/c and cell parameters a = 35.970(3) A, b = 15.9400(13) A, c = 10.7681(7) A, beta = 101.073(4) degrees, and Z = 8 with R(1) = 0.0482. The structure of the compound consists of trigonal bipyramidal [VO(4)N] and pseudopyramidal [HPO(3)] blocks, which are connected by corner-sharing, to form vanadium phosphite layers in the bc plane. These layers are further linked through 4,4'-bpy pillars, generating a 3D framework. Thermogravimetric analysis and magnetic susceptibility data for this compound are given.
