A new layered zirconium diphosphonate fluoride, ZrF(O3PCH2)2NHCH2C6H5 has been prepared and its structure determined ab initio by X-ray powder data and refined with the Rietveld method (orthorhombic, a = 8.9429(2) Å, b = 9.1746(2) Å, c = 31.5654(7) Å, space group Pbca, V = 2589.9(1) Å3, Z = 8, Rwp = 0.080). Both phosphonic groups of each diphosphonate building block are bonded to zirconium atoms on the same side of each layer. Benzyl groups from adjacent layers are interdigitated in the interlayer region, with probable pi-pi stacking interactions. The structure of the free benzylamino-N,N-bis methylphosphonic acid has been determined by single crystal X-ray data (monoclinic, space group P21, a = 6.990(3) Å b = 5.635(2) Å c = 15.551(6) Å, beta = 92.930(3)°, V = 611.7(4) Å3, Z = 2, R1 = 0.072, wR2 = 0.150). As in the zirconium derivative, benzyl groups from adjacent layers are interdigitated and create a regular alternation of polar and non-polar regions.

Abstract
A new layered zirconium diphosphonate fluoride, ZrF(O3PCH2)2NHCH2C6H5 has been prepared and its structure determined ab initio by X-ray powder data and refined with the Rietveld method (orthorhombic, a = 8.9429(2) Å, b = 9.1746(2) Å, c = 31.5654(7) Å, space group Pbca, V = 2589.9(1) Å3, Z = 8, Rwp = 0.080). Both phosphonic groups of each diphosphonate building block are bonded to zirconium atoms on the same side of each layer. Benzyl groups from adjacent layers are interdigitated in the interlayer region, with probable pi-pi stacking interactions. The structure of the free benzylamino-N,N-bis methylphosphonic acid has been determined by single crystal X-ray data (monoclinic, space group P21, a = 6.990(3) Å b = 5.635(2) Å c = 15.551(6) Å, beta = 92.930(3)°, V = 611.7(4) Å3, Z = 2, R1 = 0.072, wR2 = 0.150). As in the zirconium derivative, benzyl groups from adjacent layers are interdigitated and create a regular alternation of polar and non-polar regions.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
