The stability, energetics, and structures of three common inorganic phosphate species, H2PO4-, H2P2O72-, H3P3O102-, and their corresponding neutral radical and monoanions, were investigated in the gas phase using photodetachment photoelectron spectroscopy and theoretical calculations. We found that H2P2O72- and H3P3O102- are stable in the gas phase with adiabatic electron binding energies of 1.16 and 2.45 eV, respectively. A very high adiabatic electron binding energy of 4.57 eV was measured for H2PO4-. The intramolecular Coulomb repulsion energies in H2P2O72- (∼2.7 eV) and H3P3O102- (∼2.3 eV) were estimated from photon-energy-dependent photoelectron spectra. Density-functional theory calculations were used to search the optimal geometries for both the doubly and singly charged species. We found only one minimum energy conformation for H2P2O72- with two intramolecular H-bonds and C2 symmetry and three minimum energy structures for H3P3O102-. The lowest energy structure of H3P3O102- has three intramolecula...
