A new iron fluorophosphate of the composition, [C6N4H21] [Fe2F2(HPO4)3][H2PO4]·2H2O, I. has been prepared by the hydrothermal route. This compound contains iron fluorophosphate layers and the H2PO4- anions are present in the interlayer space along with the protonated amine and water molecules. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c. (a = 13.4422(10) Å, b = 9.7320(10) Å, c = 18.3123(3) Å, ? = 92.1480°, V = 2393.92(5) Å3, Z = 4, …

The structural and magnetic properties of Tm2Fe17 and Tm2Fe17D3.2 are investigated by means of x-ray-diffraction, thermal, and ac magnetic susceptibility measurements, and iron-57 Mössbauer spectroscopy. Both compounds crystallize in a hexagonal P63/mmc space group with a Th2Ni17-like structure. Deuterium insertion into Tm2Fe17 induces large increases in the unit-cell volume, the saturation magnetization, and the ordering temperature. The unit-cell expansion is anisotropic, with a larger increase in the a lattice parameter than the c lattice parameter. A spin reorientation is observed at 90 K …
