Synthesis and structure of Li2Al3(HO3PMe)2(O3PMe)4Cl·7H2O,an ionic, layered lithium aluminium methylphosphonate
Abstract
A new layered mixed metal methylphosphonate, which contains interlayer chloride anions, has been prepared by contacting an LDH with molten methylphosphonic acid, and its structure solved using microcrystal X-ray diffraction at a synchrotron source.
