Metal-water interactions and hydrogen bonding in dittmarite-type compounds M'M''PO4.H2O (M'=K+, NH4+; M''=Mn2+, Co2+, Ni2+). Correlations of IR spectroscopic and structural data.
The vibrational behavior of the uncoupled nu(OD) modes and of the water librations in dittmarite-type compounds M'M''PO4.H2O (M'=K+, NH4+; M''=Mn2+, Co2+, Ni2+) is analyzed in terms of the influence of two types of metal-water interactions (M+-H2O and M2+-H2O), the hydrogen bonding and the repulsion potential of the lattices. The M+-H2O interaction is found to be the main factor, which influences nuOD. The strong K+-H2O interaction weakens in a higher degree the intramolecular O-H bonds than the corresponding M2+-H2O interactions (M2+=Mn, Co, Ni). As a result nuOD is shifted to lower wavenumbers in the potassium series than in ammonium one, irrespective of the synergetic effect of M2+, the hydrogen bond lengths and the repulsion potential of the lattices. The analysis of the spectroscopic data evidences for the dominating influence of the M2+-H2O interaction on the wagging mode. The blue shift of nuwag strictly follows the increasing synergetic effect of M2+, i.e. nuM'/Mn<nuM'/Co<nuM'/Ni, in all cases, irrespective of the strength of the M+-H2O interactions, the hydrogen bond lengths and the higher repulsion potential of the K-lattices. The rocking mode is insensitive to the replacement of the M2+ ions. Some relations between the spectroscopic and structural data are given.
