Abstract

The present invention discloses a compound comprising a diphosphonate/phosphite of a tetravalent metal: EQU M[(O.sub.3 P--R--PO.sub.3).sub.1-(x+y) (HPO.sub.3).sub.2X (O.sub.3 P--R--PO.sub.3 H.sub.2).sub.2y ] (where M, R, x and y have the meaning given in the description), in the form of a crystalline solid with an alpha-type lamellar structure with a distance between layers of 7.4 to 20.ANG. (depending on the dimensions of radical R), a BET surface area of 250 to 400m.sup.2 /g, and porosity within the mesopore range, with at least 50% of the pores measuring 20 to 30.ANG.. The compound, depending on the radical R used, may or may not have microporosity in the region between layers. Such a diphosphonate/phosphite of a tetravalent metal is obtained by reaction between diphosphonic acid, phosphorous acid and an oxyhalide of a tetravalent metal, in a solvent comprising dimethyl-sulphoxide/water containing hydrofluoric acid.
