    A new binary Co<inf>1/2</inf>Fe<inf>1/2</inf>(H<inf>2</inf>PO<inf>4</inf>) <inf>2</inf>·2H<inf>2</inf>O was synthesized by a simple, rapid and cost-effective method using CoCO<inf>3</inf>-Fe(c)-H<inf>3</inf>PO<inf>4</inf> system at ambient temperature. Thermal treatment of the obtained Co<inf>1/2</inf>Fe<inf>1/2</inf>(H<inf>2</inf>PO<inf>4</inf>) <inf>2</inf>·2H<inf>2</inf>O at 600 °C yielded as a binary cobalt iron cyclotetraphosphate CoFeP<inf>4</inf>O<inf>12</inf>. The FTIR and XRD results of the synthesized Co<inf>1/2</inf>Fe<inf>1/2</inf>(H<inf>2</inf>PO<inf>4</inf>) <inf>2</inf>·2H<inf>2</inf>O and its final decomposed product CoFeP<inf>4</inf>O<inf>12</inf> indicate the monoclinic phases with space group P2<inf>1</inf>/n and C2/c, respectively. The particle morphologies of both binary metal compounds appear the flower-like microparticle shapes. Room temperature magnetization results show novel superparamagnetic behaviors of the Co<inf>1/2</inf>Fe<inf>1/2</inf>(H<inf>2</inf>PO<inf>4</inf>) <inf>2</inf>·2H<inf>2</inf>O and its final decomposed product CoFeP<inf>4</inf>O<inf>12</inf>, having no hysteresis loops in the range of ±10,000 Oe with the specific magnetization values of 0.045 and 12.502 emu/g at 10 kOe, respectively. The dominant physical properties of the obtained binary metal compounds (Co<inf>1/2</inf>Fe<inf>1/2</inf>(H<inf>2</inf>PO<inf>4</inf>) <inf>2</inf>·2H<inf>2</inf>O and CoFeP<inf>4</inf>O<inf>12</inf>) are compared with the single compounds (M(H<inf>2</inf>PO<inf>4</inf>)<inf>2</inf>·2H<inf>2</inf>O and M<inf>2</inf>P<inf>4</inf>O<inf>12</inf>; where M = Co, Fe), indicating the presence of Co ions in substitution position of Fe ions. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd.
