Аннотация:The manganese end member of triplite - triploidite series of compounds, Mn2(PO4)OH, is synthesized by hydrothermal method. Its crystal structure is refined in the space group P21/c with a = 12.411(1) Å, b = 13.323(1) Å, c = 10.014(1) Å, alpha = 108.16(1), V = 1573.3 Å3, Z = 8, R = 0.0375. Evidenced in measurements of magnetization M and specific heat Cp, Mn2(PO4)OH reaches long range antiferromagnetic order at TN = 4.6 K. As opposed to both triplite Mn2(PO4)F and triploidite-type Co2(PO4)F, the title compound is magnetically frustrated being characterized by the ratio of Curie-Weiss temperature theta to Neel temperature TN of about 20. The large value of frustration strength theta/TN stems from the twisted saw tooth chain geometry of corner sharing triangles of Mn polyhedra, which may be isolated within tubular fragments of triploidite crystal structure.
