[NH₃(CH₂)₃NH₃][Ga(P₂O₇)(H₂PO₄)]: a new organically templated gallium phosphate-diphosphate

J. L. Kissick and A. M. Chippindale

Abstract: Propane-1,3-diammonium gallium phosphate diphosphate, [NH₃(CH₂)₃NH₃][Ga(P₂O₇)(H₂PO₄)], consists of anionic chains containing GaO₆ octahedra linked by tetrahedral P₂O₇ diphosphate and PO₂(OH)₂ units charge-balanced by 1,3-diaminopropane dications. The chains, which are held together by a network of hydrogen bonds involving both interchain and chain-diamine interactions, are isostructural with those previously observed in [NH₃(CH₂)₂NH₃][Ga(P₂O₇)(H₂PO₄)]. Different packing arrangements are, however, adopted in the two materials.
