The solvent-free title compound 2∞[FeII{H3N+CH2CH2C(OH)(PO3H−)(PO3H−)}2] was prepared by hydrothermal synthesis and consists of (4,4)-nets of iron octahedra (as the nodes) linked by corner sharing tetrahedra of the phosphonate groups. These layers are stacked in an ABB’A’ sequence and are connected to give a three-dimensional network by hydrogen bonds between the non-Fe-bridging phosphonate groups. Pamidronate, C3H10NO7P2− is a zwitterion with an overall charge of −1.
