Ov. Yakubovich et al., THE MIXED ANIONIC FRAMEWORK IN THE STRUCTURE OF NA-2(MNF[PO4]), Acta crystallographica. Section C, Crystal structure communications, 53, 1997, pp. 395-397
In the crystal structure of hydrothermally synthesized disodium mangan
ese fluoride orthophosphate, Na-2{MnF[PO4]}, two kinds of cisMnO(4)F(2
) octahedra share common vertices to form (Mn2F2O8) chains parallel to
the b axis of the monoclinic unit cell. In the a and c directions the
se chains are linked by PO4 tetrahedra to form a three-dimensional fra
mework of octahedra and tetrahedra. Na+ cations are located in the cha
nnels of this framework structure. The problem of {OTX5} mixed anionic
radical polymorphism is discussed.
