New
metal borophosphate compound MoBP3O12, as a potential
candidate of nonlinear optical material, was obtained by hydrothermal method.
The title compound was synthesized from the mixture of MoO3, B2O3,
and (NH4)2HPO4 with the molar ratio 1:0.5:3, by
heating at 200 °C for 3 days. The powder X-ray diffraction data was indexed in
tetragonal system with the refined unit cell parameters, a = b = 5.302 (8), c =
21.538 (4) Å and Z = 1. Stoichiometric chemical analysis of molybdenum was done
by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) and boron
content was analysed by spectrophotometric azomethine H method. The indexed powder X-ray diffraction (XRD)
data with POWD program, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) spectrum
and thermal analysis of MoBP3O12 are also given in the
paper.
