The crystal structures of the isomorphous title compounds, namely potassium zinc hydrogen pyrophosphate dihydrate and potassium manganese hydrogen pyrophosphate dihydrate, consist of acidic pyrophosphate-metallate(II) layers joined by K+ ions and hydrogen-bridging bonds. The Zn2+/Mn2+ ions are octahedrally surrounded by four pyrophosphate O atoms and by two water molecules. The (HP2O7)3- anions exhibit eclipsed conformations. The metal ions and water O atoms lie on mirror planes, as does the central O atom of the (HP2O7)3- anion.
Supporting information
The title compounds were obtained by mixing equimolar quantities of K4P2O7
and ZnCl2·4H2O [or MnCl2·4H2O in the case of (II)] in a few
ml of concentrated HCl. The former reactant was obtained by heating K2HPO4
at 873 K for 6 h. From the solution left at room temperature, well shaped
colourless [or rose coloured in the case of (II)] crystals with edge-lengths
up to 1 mm were deposited after 2–3 d.
All H atoms were located from difference Fourier maps. Within the limits of the
method, the positions of the H atoms were refined allowing for isotropic
displacement parameters. A split position with half-occupancy (around a center
of inversion) was introduced for the acid H2 atom. Attempts to resolve this
splitting in non-centrosymmetric subgroups of Pnma did not lead to an
improved refinement.

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.

Compared to anhydrous diphosphates (El Bali et al., 2001, and references therein), little information is available in the literature concerning the crystal structures of acidic metal diphosphates and hydrated metal diphosphates. Structural data have only been reported for the following compounds: CaNH4HP2O7 (Mathew & Schroeder, 1977), Cr(NH3)4HP2O7·2H2O (Haromy et al., 1984), K3Cu2[(P2O7)(HP2O7)] (Effenberger, 1987), Ca2KH3(P2O7)2·2H2O (Mathew et al., 1993) and Cr(HP2O7)(NH3)3 (Haromy et al., 1999). The biological applications of acidic metal diphosphates are well known, viz. their role in some enzyme-catalyzed reaction processes (Haromy et al., 1984) and their use as inhibitors in the formation and dissolution of apatite crystals in vitro (Mathew et al., 1993). The title compounds, KHZnP2O7·2H2O, (I), and KHMnP2O7·2H2O, (II), are isotypic. The octahedral coordination around the Mn/Zn atoms and the pyrophosphate groups in (I) and (II) are shown in Fig. 1, together with the atom-numbering schemes. The three-dimensional structure is built from acidic pyrophosphate–metallate(II) [M = Zn in (I) and Mn in (II)] layers stacked along the c axis (Fig. 2), alternating with layers of K+ cations. The Zn2+/Mn2+ ions are octahedrally surrounded by four O atoms from three different pyrophosphate anions, and by two water molecules. The angle between the plane through water molecule OW5 and the M2+—OW5 bond is about 141.8° (143.3°), while the corresponding angle involving OW6 is significantly smaller, ϕ = 107.8° (108.6°) [items in parentheses are for the manganese compound, (II)]. We attribute these quite different values to differences in the hydrogen-bridging bonds from H5W (H6W) to O2 (O4) of the diphosphate anions, which basically result from a slightly longer O5W—O2 distance of ~2.83 Å compared to O6W—O4 of ~2.67 Å. Apparently, the coordination mode of water to a transition metal ion, expressed by the angle between the plane through the water molecule and the M2+—OH2 bond, is quite flexible.
The powder reflectance spectrum of KHMnP2O7·2H2O, (II) (Fig. 3a), shows the spin-forbidden absorption bands typically found for Mn2+. The transitions 6A1 g → 4T1 g, 6A1 g → 4T2 g, 6A1 g → (4Eg,4A1 g) and 6A1 g → 4T2 g(D) can be recognized. Thus, the spectrum provides, in addition to the X-ray study, clear evidence for a manganese(II) hydrogen pyrophosphate instead of a manganese(III) compound. The band positions are similar to those found for anhydrous manganese(II) phosphates, such as Mn2P2O7, Mn2P4O12 and Mn2Si(P2O7)2 (Glaum et al., 2002), and for the hexaqua complex of Mn2+ (Figgis & Hitchman, 2000). The Raman spectrum of (II) (Fig. 3 b) is in agreement with the different P—O bond distances found in the pyrophosphate anions (Table 2). We attribute the strong emission at ν = 1015 cm-1 to the symmetric stretching vibration of the external PO3 groups, while the weaker signals at ν = 1123 and 1183 cm-1 most likely belong to asymmetric stretches of the external PO3 groups (Rulmont et al., 1991). The signal at 787 cm-1 might be assigned to the symmetric stretch of the P—O—P bridge.
