Radium Hypophosphate Usage And Synthesis

Description

Radium hypophosphate has the molecular formula of Ra2P2O4. It can be formed by an aqueous solution of hypophosphorus acid and a soluble radium salt:
2RaCl2 (aq) +H4P2O4 (aq) ? Ra2P2O4 (solid) + 2HCl (aq)
Alternatively, sodium hypophosphate can be used to produce a basic solution instead of acidic. The acidic product is expected to be a radium hydrogen hypophosphate, RaH2P2O6. Neither of these salts have a CAS number.Whether hydrates form or not remains unknown.
The crystal structure of the anhydrate or the hydrates has not been determined. The thermal decomposition of either of these two salts has not been determined.
