Manganese(III) phosphate is an inorganic chemical compound of manganese with the formula MnPO4. It is a hygroscopic purple solid that absorbs moisture to form the pale-green monohydrate,[1] though the anhydrous and monohydrate forms are typically each synthesized by separate methods.

Production and properties

Manganese phosphate monohydrate is produced by the reaction of an Mn(II) salt, such as manganese(II) sulfate, and phosphoric acid, followed by oxidation by nitric acid. Another method of producing the monohydrate is by the comproportionation of permanganate and Mn(II) in phosphoric acid:[2][3][4]

MnO4– + 4 Mn2+ + 10 PO43– + 8 H+ → 5 [Mn(PO4)2]3– + 4 H2O

The diphosphomanganate(III) ion slowly converts to the monohydrate. Heating of the monohydrate does not yield the anhydrous form, instead, it decomposes to manganese(II) pyrophosphate (Mn2P2O7) at 420 °C:[3]

4 MnPO4·H2O → 2 Mn2P2O7 + 4 H2O + O2

To produce the anhydrous form, lithium manganese(II) phosphate is oxidized with nitronium tetrafluoroborate under inert conditions.[1]

The anhydrous form is sensitive to moisture. In the absence of moisture, it decomposes at 400 °C, but when moisture is present, it slowly transitions to an amorphous phase and decomposes at 250 °C.[1]

Structure and natural occurrence

Purpurite, natural MnPO4

The anhydrous form has an olivine structure and naturally occurs as the mineral purpurite. The monohydrate has a monoclinic structure, similar to that of magnesium sulfate monohydrate, but has distortions at the octahederal manganese center due to the Jahn-Teller effect. It naturally occurs as the mineral serrabrancaite.[5][6][7]

The monohydrate form has cell parameters of a = 6.912 Å, b = 7.470 Å, β = 112.3°, and Z = 4. It consists of interconnected distorted trans-[Mn(PO4)4(H2O)2] octahederons.[5]
