Abstract
AbstractCompounds Fe7Sb3(PO4)3O6Cl3 and Fe7Sb3(PO4)3O6Br3 are the first iron phosphates containing SbIII. They were synthesized by chemical vapor transport reactions, and their crystal structures were characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. The compounds are isostructural and crystallize in the orthorhombic space group Pnma. Tubular Fe7(PO4)3O6X3 units (X = Cl, Br) are linked by SbO4 groups to build up a framework. The tubular units consist of an outer part made up of [FeO5X] octahedra where the Fe atoms are arranged to resemble a nanotube. Inside the tubes there are phosphate groups, and at the very center there is a chain of face‐sharing [FeO6] octahedra.
