A new layered cobalt-zinc phosphite, Co(H{sub 2}O){sub 4}Zn{sub 4}(HPO{sub 3}){sub 6}.C{sub 2}N{sub 2}H{sub 1} has been synthesized in the presence of ethylenediamine as the structure-directing agent. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group Cc (No. 9), a=18.2090(8), b=9.9264(7), c=15.4080(7) A, {beta}=114.098(4){sup o}, V=2542.3(2) A{sup 3}, Z=4, R=0.0323, wR=0.0846. The structure consists of ZnO{sub 4} tetrahedra, CoO{sub 6} octahedra and HPO{sub 3} pseudopyramids through their vertices forming bimetallic phosphite layers parallel to the ab plane. Organic cations, which reside between the inorganic layers, are mobile and can be exchanged by NH{sub 4} {sup +} cations without the collapse of the framework.
