چکیده
The monoclinic form of trilithium dichromium(III) tris-(ortho-phosphate), Li3Cr2(PO4)3, was prepared by the reactive halide flux method. The structure of the title compound is composed of a three-dimensional anionic framework with composition ∞ (3)[Cr2(PO4)3](3-) and Li(+) ions situated in the empty channels. The rigid framework built up from CrO6 octa-hedra and PO4 tetra-hedra is the same as that found in other monoclinic Li3 M 2(PO4)3 (M = Fe, Sc, V) phases. The three Li(+) cations of Li3Cr2(PO4)3 are unequally disordered over six crystallographically different sites. The classical charge balance of the title compound can be represented as [Li(+)]3[Cr(3+)]2[P(5+)]3[O(2-)]12. Solid-state UV/Vis spectra indicate that the crystal filed splitting (Δ0) of the Cr(3+) ion is around 2.22 eV.

The structure of Li(3)V(2)(PO(4))(3) has been reinvestigated from single-crystal X-ray data. Although the results of the previous studies (all based on powder diffraction data) are comparable with our redetermination, all atoms were refined with anisotropic displacement parameters in the current study, and the resulting bond lengths are more accurate than those determined from powder diffractio...

The title compound, [Li(3)(C(4)F(9)O)(3)(C(3)H(6)O)(3)], features an open Li/O cube with an Li ion missing at one corner. Three of the four bridging O atoms of the cube carry a fluorinated tert-butyl residue, whereas the fourth is part of an acetone mol-ecule. Two of the Li atoms are further bonded to a non-bridging acetone mol-ecule. Two of the lithium ion coordination geometries are very dist...
