Protic deep eutectic mixtures are usually composed of organic amine hydrochloride salts and hydrogen bond donors in a specific molar ratio. Ionothermal synthesis of aluminophosphate as an example, herein, was reported for the first time from an urea-based protic eutectic mixture, consisting of diethylammonium chloride (DEACl) and 1,3-dimethyl urea (DMU). As a result, a new two dimensional aluminophosphate with 4.8-network, [CH3NH3]2[(C2H5)2NH2]Al3(PO4)4, has been successfully synthesized by co-templating the DEA and methylamine in situ generated from the decomposition of DMU in the absence of HF. Compared to alkyl quaternary ammonium salts with more alkyl-group connected with N atom, this kind of organic amine salts are more likely as the structure-directing agents to synthesize aluminophosphates in urea-based deep eutectic mixtures. It was also found that HF is crucial to the phase selectivity, a known compound with chain-like structure was obtained with the single methylamine as a structure-directing agent in the presence of HF. These materials were characterized by powder XRD, SEM, TG-DSC, 13C CP-MAS NMR and CHN analyses.
