1. Introduction Microporous materials continue to be the subject of intense research in the fields of materials science and crystal engineering, owing not only to their diverse structural chemistry but also to their potential applications for magnetism, fluorescence,
RI PT
electronics, gas absorption, ion exchange, heterogeneous catalysis, and so on [1-6]. Since the pioneering work reporting the crystalline aluminophosphate molecular sieves in 1982, a huge number of metal phosphates and phosphites with a variety of rich compositional and structural features have been reported in the literature [7-10].
SC
Among them the gallium-phosphates/phosphites are an important family, and huge number of such solids with zero-(monomer), one-(chain, ladder), two-(layer), and
M AN U
three-dimensional (3D) architectures have been synthesized and successfully characterized [11-15]. Compared to aluminum, the larger size of gallium may give rise to variable coordination geometry (GaO4 tetrahedra, GaO5 trigonal bipyramids, and GaO6 octahedra) for the metal centre. The geometrical feature induced the formation of inorganic networks exhibiting a rich structural diversity, including the
TE D
production of large pore system. Typical examples include gallium phosphate [Ga2(DETA)(PO4)2]·2H2O (NTHU-1, DETA = diethylenetriamine) and gallium phosphite

Recent developments in the area of hybrid open-frameworks have placed special emphasis on the introduction of rigid organic linkers. For instance, the oxalates, as part of the inorganic framework has opened up tremendous possibilities for research in this area giving rise to new inorganic-organic hybrid materials. The use of oxalate anions along with phosphates or phosphites has been successfully accomplished, and phosphate/phosphite-oxalate structures are beginning to emerge as an important family
[18-20].

During the last couple of years, a variety of crystalline metal (Al, Zn, Fe, Mn, In, Co, Sn, etc.) phosphate-oxalates and phosphite-oxalates have been prepared since the first organically templated vanadyl arsenato- and phosphato-oxalates were obtained [25-29]. For example, the 3D
RI PT
structures of [H3N(CH2)3NH3][Mn2(HPO4)2(C2O4)(H2O)2] is constructed from manganese phosphate layers bridged by oxalate groups [30]; the 3D open-framework indium phosphite-oxalates [C6H14N2][In2(HPO3)3(C2O4)] is constructed from InO6 octahedra, HPO3 and C2O4 units, containing 12-members ring channels [31]. However,
SC
the reports on organically template gallium-based phosphate/ phosphite-oxalates are relatively rare, which may be due to the difficulties in preparing high quality
M AN U
single-crystals for the X-ray structural analysis [32-33]. It is worth noting that rational design and fabrication of gallium-based phosphate/ phosphite-oxalates are influenced by many factors such as synthetic methods, reaction conditions, metal/ligands ratio, organic templates, solvents, pH, temperature, etc. Moreover, in the earlier literature studies on open-frameworks, several compounds exhibiting different structures are

3. Results and discussion
RI PT
3.1 Crystal structure of {[H2dmpip][Ga2(HPO4)2(PO4)(C2O4)0.5]·H2O} (1). X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that compound 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic system with P21/c space group. The asymmetric unit of compound 1 consists of 29 nonhydrogen atoms, including two gallium atoms, three phosphorus atoms, fifteen
SC
oxygen atoms, seven carbon atoms and two nitrogen atoms. There are two different types of gallium in the structure. As shown in Fig. 1, the Ga(1) atom is
M AN U
six-coordinated by oxygen atoms from one oxalate ligand, one PO4 group as well as two individual HPO4 units, displaying a slightly distorted GaO6 octahedral geometry (Ga-O = 1.912(4)-2.066(4) Å). The remaining Ga(2) center is four-coordinated by oxygen atoms from two PO43- anions and two HPO42- anions, displaying typical GaO4 tetrahedral coordination with distance of Ga-O ranging from 1.811(4) to 1.832(3) Å.
TE D
All phosphorus atoms adopt tetrahedral coordination geometry: P(1) forms four P-O-Ga linkages; P(2) forms only one P-O-Ga linkage and possess one terminal OH group and two terminal O atoms; P(3) produces three P-O-Ga bonds keeping one
EP
terminal OH group. The P-O distances are in the range of 1.505(4)-1.570(4) Å, and the O-P-O bond angles are in the scope of 103.9-115.7°.
AC C
The alternative linkage of GaOx (x = 4, 6) and PO4 tetrahedral groups forms typical four-membered ring (4MR), which is further connected with each other to form 1D chains along the a axis (Fig. 2a). These chains are further held together via corner sharing of the phosphate tetrahedra, to generate gallium-phosphate puckered layer structure with 8-membered rings (Fig. 2b). It is obvious that the uncoordinated P-O and P-OH linkages of HP(2)O4 units point into the interlayer space, preventing the linkage between the neighbouring layers into a higher dimensional architecture. In addition, oxalate units via an in-plane linkage coordinate to Ga(1) and Ga(2) atoms, filling in the {P(1)O4-Ga(2)O4-HP(3)O4-Ga(1)O6}2 8-memberd windows to produce
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT the final hybrid layer (Fig. 2c). For the common 3D metal phosphate-oxalates, oxalates connect layers by participating in the coordination of metal atoms belong to the adjacent sheets [37]. While for 1, each oxygen atom belongs to the oxalate ligand has been coordinated to the Ga atom within the same sheet, it cannot expand to 3D

structure. According to the literature, there are at least four topological analogues of compound 1 [32, 38-40]. Though using different organic templates, the phosphate anion in 1 shows the same coordination behavior with above mentioned four compounds, which may be due to the same coordination number of gallium atoms.

Moreover, these organic templates interact with the layers through multiple H-bonds with N-H···O distance in the range of 2.702(6)-3.222(6) Å. The adjacent phosphate-oxalate layers are stacked along the [100] direction in an -ABAB- fashion, and further connected with each other through strong H-bonding interactions to give 3D supramolecular framework (Fig. 2d).

Crystal structure of [H2apm][Ga2(H2PO3)2(HPO3)2(C2O4)] (2). Compound 2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic system with Pbcm space group. There are one crystallographically distinct gallium atom, two halves of H2PO3 units, one HPO3

group, one half oxalate ligand and one half H2apm cation in the asymmetric unit. As depicted in Fig.3a, the Ga(1) atom adopts six-coordinated geometry to construct an octahedron from six surrounding oxygen atoms. Each shares four bridging oxygen atoms (O(1), O(3), O(5) and O(7)) with the adjacent phosphorus atoms with an average Ga-O bond length of 1.969 Å and Ga-O-P bond angles in the range of 133.1-143.2°. The remaining two coordination sites are occupied by the oxalate anion (O(8) and O(9)) which acts as a bis-bidentate ligand between two GaO6 octahedra. The slight distortion for GaO6 octahedra is due to the attached oxalate anions, as indicated by the Ga-O bond lengths ranging from 1.909(5)-2.059(5) Å as well as the
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT small O-Ga-O bond angles (80.8-178.4°), similar to distortions observed in other metal phosphite-oxalates [23, 31]. The coordination environment around all phosphorus atoms is pseudo-tetrahedra. Each of them makes two P-O-Ga linkages and possesses one terminal P-O bond and one P-H bond. The longest P(1)-O(2) and
RI PT
P(2)-O(4) bonds correspond to the terminal P-OH linkages with the distances of 1.525(6) Å and 1.539(8) Å, respectively. The existence of P-H bonds is also confirmed by the characteristic band of phosphite anions (νH-P = 2412 cm-1) in the IR spectrum. The P-O distances are in the range 1.496(5)-1.539(8) Å, and the O-P-O
SC
bond angles are in the range 107.6-114.6°.
The strictly alternating GaO6 octahedra and P-centered pseudo-tetrahedra form

typical four- and eight-membered apertures, which are linked through their corners forming the neutral one-dimensional ladder-like chains (Fig. 3b). As shown in Fig. 3c, the metal-phosphite inorganic chains are, in turn, connected via an oxalate bridge which links the Ga centers from two different chains to give rise to a two-dimensional hybrid layer architecture with the formula [Ga2(H2PO3)2(HPO3)2(C2O4)].

with the bridging oxygen atoms (O(1), O(3) and O(5)) in the negative layer. Moreover, the overall 3D supermolecule is formed by week van der Waals interactions between the layers and attached [H2apm]2+ cations (Fig. 3d). A void space analysis performed

by the program PLATON indicates that these extra-framework species occupy 41.0% of the unit cell volume.
In the materials of phosphate/phosphite-oxalates reported, the oxalates ligand
normally plays two roles, that is, one as an integral part with the metalphosphate/phosphite to form hybrid layers and the other as the pillars to link the inorganic ladders to form hybrid layers [42]. In the present structures, compound 2 represents the pillar-based hybrid layers, while compound 1 represents the former. Compared with compound 1, the difference is that oxalate anions act as bis-bidentate ligands to the adjacent GaO6 units which belongs two distinct inorganic chains in 2.
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT 3.2 XRD Patterns and Thermal Analyses To confirm the phase purity of these compounds, the PXRD patterns were recorded for 1 and 2, and they were comparable to the corresponding simulated patterns calculated from the single-crystal diffraction data (Fig. 4), indicating a pure

phase of each bulky sample. Thermal gravimetric analyses were carried out to examine the thermal stabilities of compounds 1 and 2. For compound 1, two-step weight-loss processes are present from room temperature to 800 °C. As shown in Fig.5, the weight loss before 155 °C is

Compound 1 is comprised of gallium phosphate-oxalate hybrid layers with 4,8-MRs that are stacked in ABAB fashion. Compound 2 is formed by the edge-shared GaO6 and HPO3 polyhedra forming a gallium-phosphite chain, that are connected with the oxalate units generating two-dimensional layer architecture. In 1 and 2, the oxalate units have a dual functionality of connecting within the plane of the layer as well as linking the inorganic ladders as pillars. The hydrogen bonding interactions between host-guest molecules stabilize the placement of the organic ammonium cations in the interlayer region. Our investigation suggests that it is possible to make new members of the gallium phosphate/phosphite-oxalates system by suitable choice of other novel
