Popis: | A new lithium vanadium fluorophosphate Li5V(PO4)2F2 has been synthesized by incorporation of LiF into α-Li3V2(PO4)3, and its structure has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The sample crystallizes in monoclinic symmetry, space group P21/c (No. 14), with lattice parameters a = 6.3589(4), b = 10.7795(6), c = 10.3836(6), β = 90.019(1)°, and Z = 4. The refinement was performed using a total of 3094 unique reflections, resulting in agreement factors of R and wR(F2) of 0.0422 and 0.0741, respectively. The structure of Li5V(PO4)2F2 consists of layers of vanadium fluorophosphate interleaved with lithium ions. Lithium ions also reside in the channels along the a axis and in the interstitial space within the framework. The synthesis of the title compound from α-Li3V2(PO4)3 represents the first example of framework reduction for a metal phosphate, from a three-dimensional to a two-dimensional structure. Bulk phases of Li5V(PO4)2F2 and its chromium analogue, Li5Cr(PO4)2F2, were also prepared from t... |
