A novel three dimensional fluorinated gallium phosphate has been hydrothermally synthesized by using diethylenetriamine as an organic structure directing agent. X ray single crystal structure analysis indicates this compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbca, a =1.605 6(7) nm, b = 1 011 4 (4) nm, c =1.854 6(5) nm, V =3.011 6(19) nm 3, Z =4. The three dimensional framework based on linkage of corner sharing polyhedron PO 4, GaO 4F and GaO 4F 2 delimit ten ring channels along b axis in which the triply protonated amines are located serving as charge compensating guests and supporters.
