Our research efforts are towards synthesizing a new class of porous cationic structures for the potential application of anionic exchange. We focus on solvothermal synthetic techniques, namely metal precursors in aqueous, 2-butanol or mixed solvent systems. To our knowledge, there are only two cationic extended materials known to date that are purely inorganic: layered double hydroxides (LDHs) and our previously reported layered lead fluoride, BING-5. In recent work, a new related structure having antimony as metal source has been discovered. Detailed characterizations by various methods were performed on the material, including X-ray diffraction (XRD, powder and single crystal), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The synthetic strategy, characterization and the anion-exchange data will be presented.
