Existence of Cs2P5[edit]
I did not find any papers about crystallographic characterizations about Cs2P5. However, from Chem. Rev. by HG Von Schnering, W Hönle (1988) (doi:10.1021/cr00083a012), it mentions "the yellow M3P7 (in the literature formerly erroneously called M2P5) have been prepared in NH3(l)", which indicates that Cs2P5 is actually Cs3P7. --Leiem (talk) 17:32, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
- Yes this whole article is problematic as there appears to be multiple compounds, eg Cs4P6.[1] This article:[2] has Cs4P6, Cs3P7, Cs3P8.33, Cs3P11, CsP7, CsP11, CsP15. There exists variants that are solvated: Cs3P (dubious), s2P4 and Cs4P11. 9 different crystal structures are listed in that article.
