Abstract
NaZn(H2PO3)3·H2O contains zigzag chains of edge-sharing alternating NaO6 [dav(Na—O) = 2.452 (2) Å] and ZnO6 [dav(Zn—O) = 2.104 (2) Å] octahedra, crosslinked by H2PO3 pseudo-pyramids [dav(P—OZn) = 1.501 (2) Å and dav(P—OH) = 1.572 (2) Å]. It is isostructural with NaM(H2PO3)3·H2O (M = Mn, Co).
