This paper describes the syntheses of three transition metal diphosphonate compounds: Na4Zn{NH3CH(PO3)2}2·4H2O (1), Ni{NH3CH(PO3H)2}2·xH2O (2) and NaNi2{NH3CH(PO3)(PO3H0.5)}2(H2O)2·2H2O (3). Compound 1 contains chains of [Zn{NH3CH(PO3)2}2]n4n- made up of corner-sharing ZnO6 octahedra and CPO3 tetrahedra, which are further connected by tetramers of edge-sharing NaO6 octahedra, forming a three-dimensional open-framework structure. Compound 2 shows a square-grid layer structure where the NiO6 octahedra are corner shared with CPO3 tetrahedra. The adjacent layers are linked by strong inter-layer hydrogen bonds, resulting in a three-dimensional open-network structure with channels where the lattice water molecules reside. The structure of compound 3 is analogous to that of NaCo2{NH3CH(PO3)(PO3H0.5)}2(H2O)2·xH2O in which layers of Ni2{NH3CH(PO3)(PO3H0.5)}2(H2O)2 are connected by NaO6 linkages into an open-framework structure. The magnetic studies show that weak antiferromagnetic interactions are mediated between the nickel ions in compounds 2 and 3. Crystal data for 1: triclinic, space group P -1, a=5.551(2)Å, b=6.166(2)Å, c=12.424(4)Å, α=92.422(6)°α=92.422(6)°, β=92.687(7)°β=92.687(7)°, γ=93.926(6)°γ=93.926(6)°, V=423.3(2)Å3, Z=2Z=2. For 2: triclinic, space group P -1, a=9.043(1)Å, b=9.180(1)Å, c=9.271(1)Å, α=89.693(3)°α=89.693(3)°, β=70.202(3)°β=70.202(3)°, γ=89.530(3)°γ=89.530(3)°, V=724.1(2)Å3, Z=2Z=2.
Graphical abstractBased on aminomethylenediphosphonate, a zinc compound Na4Zn{NH3CH(PO3)2}2·4H2O (1) with 3D open-framework structure and two nickel compounds Ni{NH3CH(PO3H)2}2·xH2O (2) and NaNi2{NH3CH(PO3)(PO3H0.5)}2(H2O)2·2H2O (3) with square-grid layer and 3D open-framework structures, respectively, are reported. The magnetic studies of compounds 2 and 3 are also investigated.Figure optionsDownload full-size imageDownload as PowerPoint slide
