Synthesis and structure of a novel aluminium phosphate anion: (Al3P4O16)3–
Abstract
The preparation and characterization of the title macroanion in which both the Al and P are tetrahedrally coordinated is described; its synthesis from a predominantly non-aqueous medium containing organic templates yields other crystalline solids with the same macroanion but different structures.
