Ambient temperature crystallisation of a lamellar gallium fluorophosphate from the synthesis solution of microporous ULM-5
Abstract
The layered gallium fluorophosphate Ga3F2(OH)4(H2- PO4)(HPO4)3 [H3N(CH2)6NH3]2 ·3.5H2O (1) crystallises at room temperature from the supernatant liquid taken during the hydrothermal synthesis of the large-pore material ULM-5; the phase has a topology not previously seen among the Group 13 phosphates.
