Abstract/Summary

The title compound, [Al(HPO4)(H2PO4)(C10H8N2)]n, consists of AlO4N2 octahedra vertex-linked to H2PO4 and HPO4 tetrahedra to form layers based on a (4,12)- net. The layers stack in an AAA fashion, held in place by pi-pi interactions between 2,2 '-bipyridine molecules coordinated to Al atoms in adjacent layers.
