Abstract
Zn(O3PCH2OH) (1) has been formed by reaction of zinc acetate with diethyl hydroxymethylphosphonate. The acidity of the zinc solution effects hydrolysis of the phosphonate to produce phosphonic acid in situ. 1 crystallizes in the trigonal spacegroup R3, with a = 15.9701(2) A, c = 7.783(2) A, and Z = 18. The compound has channels in the [001] direction, formed by phosphonate groups bridging the octahedral coordinated zinc atoms. The zinc atoms are coordinated by the three oxygens of the phosphonate group and the oxygen of the hydroxy group.
Zn(O3PCH2OH) is a new microporous zinc phosphonate with channels in the [001] direction, providing potential for use in nanoparticles and nanoparticle-based materials.
