TIMo/sub 2/ /SUP IV/ P/sub 3/O/sub 12/: a molybdenophosphate with a tunnel structure
A molybdenophosphate, TIMo/sub 2/ /SUP IV/ P/sub 3/O/sub 12/, with an original tunnel structure, has been isolated. Its structure has been determined by X-ray diffraction on a single crystal. It crystallizes in the orthorhombic system with a = 8.836(1), b = 9.255(1), c = 12.288(1) A, possible space groups Pbcm and Pbc2/sub 1/ with /ZETA/ = 4. The structure was solved and refined in the centrosymmetric space group Pbcm. The host lattice ''Mo/sub 3/P/sub 3/O/sub 12/'' is built up from corner-sharing octahedra and tetrahedra and forms tunnels running along the b axis and cages where the TI+ ions are located. The relationships of this framework wit that of the phosphate tungsten bronze CsP/sub 8/W/sub 8/O/sub 40/ and that of the hexagonal tungsten bronze are discussed.
