Structure of calcium tetrasodium bis-cyclotriphosphate CaNa4(P3O9)2 by X-ray diffraction and solid-state NMR

Abstract

The crystal structure of CaNa4(P3O9)2 has been determined using single crystal X-ray diffraction. The 23Na and 31P magic angle spinning solid-state NMR data are consistent with the centrosymmetric space group assignment of C2/c and the cation distribution of two distinct sodium sites. The structure determination confirms the presence of the cyclic triphosphate unit as opposed to a cyclic hexaphosphate or metaphosphate chains. Phosphorus and sodium edge EXAFS data are discussed with respect to the structure.
