Popis: The (C2H10N2)[Fe3(HPO3)4] compound has been synthesized by using mild hydrothermal conditions under autogeneous pressure and the ethylenediamine molecule as templating agent. The compound crystallizes in the triclinic P 1 space group with unit-cell parameters a=5.416(1), b=5.416(1), c=13.977(2) A, α=80.64(2), β=85.25(1), γ=60.03(1)° and Z=1. The final R-factors were R1=0.053 [wR2=0.092]. The crystal structure is constructed of layers stacked along the c-axis. The sheets contain FeO6 octahedra linked by (HPO3)2− phosphite oxoanions to give rise to Fe3O12 trimeric units sharing faces. The IR spectrum shows the characteristic bands of the phosphite and ethylenediammonium ions. From the diffuse reflectance spectrum, the Dq parameter of 805 cm−1 has been calculated for the iron(II) cation in slightly distorted octahedral geometry. The Mossbauer spectrum exhibits two doublets characteristic of two crystallographically independent iron(II) ions in octahedral symmetry. Magnetic measurements indicate the existence of antiferromagnetic interactions.
