Hydrothermal treatment of microcrystalline (Hg 2 ) 2 P 2 O 7 in diluted phosphoric acid or demineralized water at 4003C yields colorless crystals of (Hg 3 ) 3 (PO 4 ) 4 and yellow crystals of (Hg 3 ) 2 (HgO 2 )(PO 4 ) 2 , respectively. The crystal structures have been solved and re5ned from single c

โฆ Synopsis
Crystals of the title compound were obtained from hydrothermal treatments. Hg 4 VO(PO 4 ) 2 crystallizes in orthorhombic symmetry with parameters a โซ)2(4831.7ุโฌ A > , bโซ)3(4576.61ุโฌ A > , cโซ)5(7970.9ุโฌ A > , Zโซ,4ุโฌ and space group Pnma (No. 62). The crystal structure was determined from single crystal di4ractometer data to residuals R[F 2 '2 F 2 โซ,440.0ุ]โฌ wR(F 2 โซ.050.0ุ)โฌ The VPO framework for Hg 4 VO(PO 4 ) 2 is one-dimensional and consists of hexagonal tungsten bronze (HTB)-like chains of distorted vanadium octahedra that share vertices with PO 3ุ 4 to generate in5nite [VO(PO 4 ) 2 ] 4ุ blocks as found in the structure K 6 [VO(PO 4 )] 2 (V 2 O 3 ) 2 (H x P 2 O 7 ). Mercury, present as Hg 2ุ 2 linear dimers with d(Hg}Hg)โซ)4(5215.2ุโฌ A > , ensures the connectivity between the [VO(PO 4 ) 2 ] 4ุ blocks. Susceptibility measurements are consistent with V 4ุ ions and thermal behavior is explained in terms of successive disproportionation of the title compound to elemental mercury and unknown HgVPO:s phases upon heating. A comparison with related MVPOs is presented.
