Helical channels, low framework density and structure-directing effect: a novel non-centrosymmetric zinc phosphate NIS-4 prepared by ionothermal reaction

Abstract

A novel non-centrosymmetric zinc phosphate, Zn(HPO4)(H2PO4)·C6H11N2 (denoted NIS-4), was ionothermally synthesized. The framework exhibits fascinating helical channels and remarkably low framework density (FD). Meanwhile, an ionic liquid cation plays a significant structure-directing role during the course of crystallization.
