Abstract
A low-temperature route for the synthesis of the Re(IV) diphosphate starting from ReO4 − is presented. The ReP2O7 polycrystals have been prepared in 63% yield by an interaction of NH4ReO4 with molten phosphoric acid at 673 K with subsequent cooling down to 298 K. The synthesized ReP2O7 was characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) and DRIFT spectroscopy.
