Tl3PO4 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3 space group. Tl(1) is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to one O(2) and two equivalent O(1) atoms. P(1) is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to one O(2) and three equivalent O(1) atoms. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Tl(1) and one P(1) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted tetrahedral geometry to three equivalent Tl(1) and one P(1) atom.
Tl3PO4 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3 space group. Tl(1) is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to one O(2) and two equivalent O(1) atoms. The Tl(1)-O(2) bond length is 2.56 Å. There is one shorter (2.52 Å) and one longer (2.54 Å) Tl(1)-O(1) bond length. P(1) is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to one O(2) and three equivalent O(1) atoms. The P(1)-O(2) bond length is 1.56 Å. All P(1)-O(1) bond lengths are 1.54 Å. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Tl(1) and one P(1) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted tetrahedral geometry to three equivalent Tl(1) and one P(1) atom.
