The structure of the title compound, LuP(5)O(14), comprises puckered eight-membered PO(4) rings linked by the lutetium cations in a complex way, forming a three-dimensional framework. Each eight-membered phosphate ring shares a bridging tetra-hedron with each of four adjacent tetra-hedra, to form layers of PO(4) tetra-hedra. These layers are c/2 in thickness and parallel to the ab plane. Each Lu ion is contained in one such layer, forming bonds to six O atoms in that layer and also to one O atom ...[more]
