Abstract

Polycrystalline material of the title compound, AgInP2O7, was synthesized by traditional high-temperature solid-state methods and single crystals were grown from the melt of a mixture of AgInP2O7 and B2O3 as flux in a platinium crucible. The structure consists of InO6 octa­hedra, which are corner-shared to PO4 tetra­hedra into a three-dimensional network with hexa­gonal channels running parallel to the c axis. The silver cation, located in the channel, is bonded to seven O atoms of the [InP2O7] framework with Ag–O distances ranging from 2.370 (2) to 3.015 (2) Å. The P2O7 diphosphate anion is characterized by a P—O—P angle of 137.27 (9) and a nearly eclipsed conformation. AgInP2O7 is isotypic with the M IFeP2O7 (M I = Na, K, Rb, Cs and Ag) diphosphate family.
