Oxyphosphides

Class of chemical compounds From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Remove ads

Oxyphosphides are chemical compounds formally containing the group PO, with one phosphorus and one oxygen atom. The phosphorus and oxygen are not bound together as in phosphates or phosphine oxides, instead they are bound separately to the cations (metals), and could be considered as a mixed phosphide-oxide compound. So a compound with OmPn requires cations to balance a negative charge of 2m+3n. The cations will have charges of +2 or +3. The trications are often rare earth elements or actinides. They are in the category of oxy-pnictide compounds.

Many compounds are layered, containing two metals with the formula XZPO, with an XP layer alternating with a ZO layer.[1]
