Hydrothermal Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a New Sodium Yttrium Fluoride Phosphate NaYFPO
The new compound NaYFPO{sub 4} has been synthesized by the hydrothermal method (T=200 C, p=20 bar, {tau}=300 h). It crystallizes in the monoclinic system (space group C2/m (No. 12)) with the unit cell parameters a=8.944(2) {angstrom}, b=6.930(1) {angstrom}, c=6.469(1) {angstrom}, {beta}=106.11(3){de...

Summary: | The new compound NaYFPO{sub 4} has been synthesized by the hydrothermal method (T=200 C, p=20 bar, {tau}=300 h). It crystallizes in the monoclinic system (space group C2/m (No. 12)) with the unit cell parameters a=8.944(2) {angstrom}, b=6.930(1) {angstrom}, c=6.469(1) {angstrom}, {beta}=106.11(3){degree}, Z=4. Its structure has been determined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data and refined to a conventional R{sub I}=0.0244 (wR{sub 2}=0.0629) for 358 reflections, with F{sub o}>4{sigma}(F{sub o}). The new fluoride phosphate NaYFPO{sub 4} has an original structure with its own structure type. The YO{sub 6}F{sub 2} polyhedra form infinite chains along [010] by sharing two oxygen atoms, which is the unique crystallographic feature of this fluoride phosphated compound. The chains are further linked by the fluorine edges of the YO{sub 6}F{sub 2} polyhedra in such a way that, within each chain, the polyhedra alternately have common fluorine atoms with the neighboring chains to their left and right. |
