NON-AQUEOUS SYNTHESIS OF NOVEL LOW-DIMENSIONAL ZIRCONIUM PHOSPHATES... 

It is known that non-aqueous synthesis has been effectively applied in the preparation of various metal phosphates, including amine-containing aluminum, gallium, indium, zinc and cobalt phosphates with three-dimensional open-framework structures [17-24]. Moreover, phosphates with a layered or chain structure can been crystallized from non-aqueous media [25, 26]. Since the fluoride ions mineralizer was introduced into the synthesis of zirconium phosphates, several zirconium phosphate fluorides with novel structures have also been developed.

Further sensitivity of the gel towards fluoride as a structure director has also been observed in another non-aqueous synthesis system. In the presence of dimethylformamide in triethyleneglycol the gismondine topology is formed in...

In the synthesis of non-zeolitic 3-dimensional microporous materials, the investigation of the structure-directing role of the templating agent and the effect of aqueous versus non-aqueous synthesis media offer opportunities for the discovery of new microporous crystals, particularly with the added goal of the formation of larger pores.
