The title compound, rubidium ditin(IV) tris-(phosphate), RbSn(2)(PO(4))(3), belongs to the NASICON-type family of phosphates and crystallizes in the space group R[Formula: see text]. The structure is composed of PO(4) tetra-hedra (1 symmetry) and two slightly distorted SnO(6) octa-hedra, both with 3. symmetry, which are inter-linked through corner-sharing O atoms to form a (3) (∞)[Sn(2)(PO(4))(3)](-) framework. The Rb(+) cations are located on threefold inversion axes in the voids of this framew ...[more]
