“…For MeBPOs (metal–BPO systems), the following representatives have been reported: M I M II (H 2 O) 2 [BP 2 O 8 ]· y H 2 O, with M I = Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs, and NH 4 , M II = Mg, Sc, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, and Cd, and y = 0.2–1 for mono- and divalent cations, ,− and M III (H 2 O) 2 [BP 2 O 8 ]·H 2 O, with M III = Fe and In, for triply charged cations featuring a complex [BP 2 O 8 3– ] unit as the vertex-sharing BO 4 and two PO 4 tetrahedra (Figure S1). The connection of these units to extended chains results in the formation of helices that are either left- or right-handed.…”
