Deskripsi

The title manganese(II) substituted gallophosphate, K0.5Rb0.5[Ga2Mn(PO4)3(H2O)2], features a three-dimensional network built of PO4 tetrahedra, GaO5 trigonal bipyramids and MnO6 octahedra. The RbI and KI ions, which are disordered with respect to each other in a 1:1 ratio, occupy sites within the channels of the framework. The RbI/KI and MnII atoms occupy positions of 2 symmetry, as does one of the two P atoms. The RbI/KI site is surrounded by six O atoms [2.996 (2)–3.178 (4) Å] in an irregularly-shaped coordination environment. O—H...O hydrogen bonds between the water molecules and phosphate O atoms consolidate the crystal packing.
