A series of organic-inorganic hybrid zinc phosphites with extra-large channels were synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. This is an unusual example of introducing 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate and/or biphenyl-4,4'-dicarboxylate ligands into the organically templated metal phosphite system to build extra-large-channel zeolite-related materials via hydro(solvo)thermal reactions. Those frameworks are composed of carboxylate linkers and inorganic tubes of zinc phosphites, translating their channel windows from a square shape (NTOU-1) to rhombus forms (NTOU-2 and NTOU-3) via the replacement of organic amines or ligands under synthesis conditions otherwise identical with those used to prepare NTOU-1. The synthesis, structural diversity, photoluminescence, and adsorption properties for dye molecules and lanthanide ions are also reported.

Two organic-inorganic hybrid zinc phosphites incorporating 1,2,4,5-tetrakis(imidazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene (TIMB) molecules were synthesized under hydro(solvo)thermal methods and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXD). Interestingly, the solvent ratio of water to dimethylformamide induced the formation of a new compound of Zn(TIMB)(HPO)·3HO () and our previously reported structure of Zn(TIMB)(HPO)·HO (). Additionally, their dehydrated crystals ( and ) were prepared through heat treatment at 150 °C.

Phosphite, an essential component in the biogeochemical phosphorus cycle, may make significant contributions to the bioavailable phosphorus pool as well as water eutrophication. However, to date, the potential impacts of coexisting photochemically active substances on the environmental fate and transformation of phosphite in aquatic environments have been sparsely elucidated. In the present study, the effect of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs), a widely distributed photocatalyst in aquatic environments, on phosphite phototransformation under simulated solar irradiation was systematically investigated.

An uncommon example of stable mixed-ligand zinc phosphite with genuine pores has been synthesized by using zinc metal, inorganic phosphite acid, thio-functionalized O-donor (2,5-thiophenedicarboxylate, TPDC), and tetradentate N-donor [1,2,4,5-tetrakis(imidazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene, TIMB] units assembled into one crystalline structure according to a hydro(solvo)thermal method. This is a very rare case of a metal phosphite incorporating both N- and O-donor ligands. The tetradentate TIMB linker bound to zinc atoms of the isolated zincophosphite hexamers to form a 3D open-framework structure by crosslinking structural components of 1D chains and 2D layers.
