A new copper(II) phosphate chloride, NaCu[(Cu3O)(PO4)2Cl], has been synthesized and structurally characterized. Complex chains of copper-centered polyhedra give rise to a low-dimensional magnetic behavior similar to Cu3O(MoO4)2 [1,2]. Field and temperature dependent measurements of the specific heat and the magnetic susceptibility revealed two transitions TN1 = 11.3(3) K and TN2 = 6.5(2) K. TN1 signals the long-range ordering of the Cu spins in the chains. The phase transition at TN2 is accompanied by the formation of a weak ferromagnetic moment typical for basically anti-ferromagnetic structures with spin canting.
