This study is devoted to the thermal decomposition of ZnC₂O₄·2H₂O, which was synthesized by solid-state reaction using C₂H₂O₄·2H₂O and Zn(CH₃COO)₂·2H₂O as raw materials.

Cyclohexaphosphates of Alcaline Metals

Abstract

The fast progress of chemistry of condensed phosphates resulted in a great attention to this kind of inorganic polymers all over the world. This paper reports preparation by ion exchange with lithium salt (1), solubility in water, some structural data and thermal transformation of alcaline metals cyclohexaphosphates (CHP). The crystal structures of all the compounds (table) were determined (Na₆P₆O₁₈·6H₂O one has been described previously (2)). The crystals are built up of CHP-rings and alcaline metal (M^I) polyhedra, so that during the transition from Li to Cs coordination number (c.n.) of M^I increases from 4 to 9. In crystal Li₆P₆O₁₈ · 5H₂O only 4 water molecules are coordinated by metal, moreover, there are channels where 2 additional water molecules may be placed. Rb₆P₆O₁₈·6H₂O and Cs₆P₆O₁₈·6H₂O were found to be isomorphous, as well as anhydrous K₆P₆O 18 and Rb₆P₆O₁₈.     

Preparation,Crystal Structure,Vibrational Spectra,and Thermal Behavior of Rb2H2P2O6·2H2O

Single crystals of Rb₂H₂P₂O₆ · 2H₂O could be obtained from aqueous solutions of hypodiphosphoric acid and rubidium carbonate. Its crystal structure was determined by X‐ray diffraction and it crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c with Z = 4. The salt‐like title compound consists of [H₂P₂O₆]^2– units in staggered P₂O₆‐skeleton conformation, Rb⁺ cations, and H₂O molecules, held together by intermolecular hydrogen bonds of the type O ··· O. The vibrational spectra (IR/FIR and Raman) of the rubidium salt were recorded and an assignment of the vibrational modes is proposed based on the point group C_2h for the P₂O₆‐skeleton of the anion. The thermal behavior of Rb₂H₂P₂O₆ · 2H₂O is dominated by a complex TG decay indicating a simultaneous H₂O delivery coupled with a disproportionation of [H₂P₂O₆]^2–, what is also supported by Raman spectra of heated samples.
