The structure of the title compound, SrCrP2O7, belongs to the series of isotypic crystal structures SrMP2O7 (M = Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn or Cd) and is closely related to [alpha]-Ca2P2O7. Chromium(II) shows a 4+1 square-pyramidal coordination by oxy­gen. [CrO5] units and the [P2O7] groups build a three-dimensional framework with channels along the a axis, and Sr occupies these channels. In addition to the work on SrCrP2O7, lattice parameters for SrMnP2O7 have been determined for the first time and unit-cell dimensions for SrZnP2O7 have been redetermined.

Comment top

Despite recent progress (Glaum, 1999; Glaum & Schmidt, 1997), the crystal chemistry of Cr2+ in a plain O coordination is still not well established. Apart from preliminary investigations (Schmidt & Glaum, 1997, 1999; Belsky et al., 1984), the spectroscopic and magnetic properties of Cr2+ in oxidic solids have not been studied. For this reason we have started to synthesize new phosphates of Cr2+ in the systems A/Cr/P/O (A = Mg, Ca, Sr or Ba). Our particular interest is focused on structures containing only one Cr2+ within the asymmetric unit, because these are particularly suitable for spectroscopic and magnetic measurements. The series of isotypic diphosphates SrMP2O7 [M = Mn (Maa\&s et al., 1999), Fe (Le Meins & Courbion, 1999), Co (Riou & Raveau, 1991), Ni (El-Bali, 1999), Cu (Moqine et al., 1993), Zn (Maa\&s, 1999; Murashova et al., 1991) or Cd (Alaoui El Belghiti et al., 1991)] with square-pyramidal [MO5] units meets this requirement. In this paper we report on synthesis of SrCrP2O7 and its crystal structure refinement from X-ray single-crystal data. Lattice parameters for SrMnP2O7 and SrZnP2O7 have also been determined. \scheme

The X-ray single-crystal structure analysis of SrCrP2O7 shows square-pyramidal coordination for Cr2+ [equatorial Cr—O distances 1.995 (2)–2.109 (2), and axial Cr—O 2.362 (3) Å], similar to those observed for M2+ in the other members of this series. The P—O distances and O—P—O angles in SrCrP2O7 are in the typical ranges found for diphosphate groups (Table 2). An almost eclipsed conformation (dihedral angle 15–20°) and a P—O—P bridging angle of 128.0 (2)° are observed for the [P2O7] units.

Each Cr2+ is coordinated to the terminal O atoms of five [P2O7] groups. These [CrO5] and [P2O7] groups are joined together to form a three-dimensional framework, with channels running along the crystallographic a and b axes (Fig. 1). The Sr atoms are located at the interceptions of these channels. Calculations according to the concept of effective coordination numbers, ECoN (Hoppe, 1979), using the program MAPLE-4 (Hübenthal, 1993) yield ECoN(Sr2+) = 7.88. Naïve counting of all O atoms closer to Sr2+ than the nearest cation leads to nine O neighbours. For O7i, showing the longest distance to Sr, a contribution δ(ECoN) = 0.098 to ECoN(Sr2+) has been calculated, while for O5i, with the shortest Sr—O distance, δ(ECoN) = 1.227 is obtained [symmetry code: (i) 1/2 - x, 1/2 + y, 1/2 - z].

The structure of SrCrP2O7 is closely related to that of α-Ca2P2O7 (Calvo, 1968). Sr2+ occupies the position Ca(1), while Cr2+ is located at the position Ca(2). In contrast to Ca2+ (coordination number = 8, [Ca2O14] `dimers'), Cr2+ shows coordination by only five O atoms. This leads to isolated [CrO5] groups.

It is interesting to note that the [CrO5] groups are aligned with their long axis almost parallel to the crystallographic a axis (ϕ = 8.42°). Fig. 2 gives a summary of the lattice parameters observed for the whole series SrMP2O7 with M = Cr—Zn and Cd. It is evident that the particular stereochemistry of Cr2+ and Cu2+, which is due to the Jahn-Teller-effect, leads to an expansion of the crystallographic a axis compared with the other members of the series. At the same time, shrinking of the b and c axes is observed for SrCrP2O7 and SrCuP2O7. SrFeP2O7, containing Fe2+ which is subject to a second-order Jahn-Teller distortion, shows similar behaviour, although to a far smaller extent.

In addition to the characterization of SrCrP2O7, two more mixed diphosphates, SrZnP2O7 (Maa\&s, 1999; Murashova et al., 1991) and SrMnP2O7, have been synthesized and their lattice parameters have been refined. The Mn compound has been obtained for the first time. Their unit-cell dimensions fit well into the whole series obtained for SrMP2O7 (M = Cr—Zn and Cd). The unit cell volumes directly follow the development of the ionic radii of divalent 3 d metals as described in textbooks. The variation of the three axes, however, shows the anisotropy in bonding due to the particular number of antibonding d-electrons.

Experimental top

Equimolar mixtures of the starting materials, Cr2P2O7 (Glaum et al., 1991) and Sr2P2O7 [obtained from SrCO3 and (NH4)2HPO4 by slowly increasing the temperature up to 1273 K], were sealed in evacuated silica ampoules (l ~10 cm, d ~1.6 cm) with iodine (100 mg) and CrP (5 mg) as mineralizers and heated at 1223 K for 10 d. The addition of CrP was intended to ensure reducing conditions. Furthermore, we have observed an improved recrystallization via the gas phase, and even chemical vapour transport reactions for many phosphates, using iodine as a mineraliser/transport agent in combination with reducing agents such as metal, phosphorus or metal phosphide (Glaum et al., 1991; Glaum, 1999). The reaction products were washed with dilute NaOH and water and dried at 393 K. The experiments led to light blue powders of SrCrP2O7 which always contained small amounts of well recrystallized CrP and Cr2P2O7 as by-products. Occasionally, growth of prismatic crystals of SrCrP2O7 with an edge-length of up 1 mm was observed. Chemical vapour transport experiments in a temperature gradient (1323 1223 K), aimed at purification and crystallization of SrCrP2O7, led to decomposition of the mixed phosphate. Cr2P2O7 has been deposited at the lower temperature region, while Sr2P2O7 remained at the higher temperature zone. SrCrP2O7 is remarkably stable in air and against mild oxidizing agents. By heating SrCO3 with MnCO3 or ZnO and stoichiometric amounts of (NH4)2HPO4 in air slowly to 1073 K, single phase powders of the isotypic diphosphates SrMnP2O7 and SrZnP2O7 have also been synthesized (Maa\&s et al., 1999; Maa\&s, 1999).

Refinement top

The Guinier photograph of SrCrP2O7 was indexed on the basis of the pattern of SrCoP2O7 (Riou & Raveau, 1991). The structure refinement of SrCrP2O7 from X-ray single-crystal data, using SHELXL97 (Sheldrick, 1997) and the coordinates of SrCoP2O7 (Riou & Raveau, 1991) as starting parameters, proceeded in a straightforward manner. The crystal shape was optimized by minimizing the internal R value of the whole data set using the program HABITUS (Herrendorf, 1993). The HABITUS so derived was used for the numerical absorption correction. The lattice parameters of SrMnP2O7 and SrZnP2O7 were also determined from Guinier photographs [Cu Kα, α-SiO2 as internal standard, SrMnP2O7: a = 5.378 (2), b = 8.424 (2) and c = 12.770 (3) Å, and β = 90.24 (3)°; SrZnP2O7: a = 5.309 (2), b = 8.225 (2) and c = 12.749 (6) Å, and β = 90.22 (3)°]. Lattice parameters obtained for SrZnP2O7 have lower standard deviations and deviate somewhat from the values reported earlier by Murashova et al. (1991).

Special details top

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
