The descloizite-type compound, SrMn(VO 4 )(OH), was synthesized as large single crystals (1-2mm) using a high-temperature high-pressure hydrothermal technique. X-ray single crystal structure analysis reveals that the material crystallizes in the acentric orthorhombic space group of P2 1 2 1 2 1 (no. 19), Z = 4. The structure exhibits a one-dimensional feature, with [MnO 4 ] ∞ chains propagating along the a-axis which are interconnected by VO 4 tetrahedra. Raman and infrared spectra were obtained to identify the fundamental vanadate and hydroxide vibrational modes. Magnetization data reveal a broad maximum at approximately 80 K, arising from onedimensional magnetic correlations with intrachain exchange constant of J/k B = 9.97(3) K between nearest Mn neighbors and a canted antiferromagnetic behavior below T N = 30 K. Single crystal neutron diffraction at 4 K yielded a magnetic structure solution in the lower symmetry of the magnetic space group P2 1 with two unique chains displaying antiferromagnetically ordered Mn moments oriented nearly perpendicular to the chain axis. The presence of the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya antisymmetric exchange interaction leads to a slight canting of the spins and gives rise to a weak ferromagnetic component along the chain direction.
