Abstract
An ammonium vanadyl oxalatophosphite has been synthesized by hydrothermal treatment. The formula is (NH4)2(VOHPO3)2C2O4 2·9H2O (1). The crystal structure of the compound has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction and solid state Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy (NMR). Compound 1 crystallizes in triclinic symmetry with space group P−1, a = 6.3844(4)Å, b = 7.2278(4)Å, c = 9.2965(5)Å, α = 67.260(4)°, β = 72.927(4)°, γ = 85.848(3)°. The vanadium phosphite framework consists of infinite chains of corner-sharing vanadium octahedra and hydrogenophosphite tetrahedra. The oxalate groups ensure the connection between the chains. The ammonium ions and the water molecules are located between the anionic [(VO)2(HPO3)2C2O4]2− layers. The thermal behaviour of 1 was carefully studied by combining thermogravimetric analyses, in situ X-ray diffraction and Infrared spectroscopy. The formation of given vanadyl phosphate catalysts was shown to be atmosphere-dependent of (NH4)2(VOHPO3)2C2O4 2·9H2O thermal decomposition.
