N2 - Using events collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII, a partial wave analysis of the decay is performed with the covariant tensor approach. In addition to the established states ) and 휙(2170), an axial-vector state with a mass near 2.3 GeV/푐2 is observed for the first time. Its mass and width are measured to be 2316±9stat±30syst MeV/푐2 and 89±15stat±26syst MeV, respectively. The product branching fractions of ℬ[휓(3686)→푋(2300)휂′]ℬ[푋(2300)→휙휂] and ℬ[휓(3686)→푋(2300)휂]ℬ[푋(2300)→휙휂′] are determined to be (4.8±1.3stat±0.7syst)×10−6 and (2.2±0.7stat±0.7syst)×10−6, respectively. The branching fraction ℬ[휓(3686)→휙휂휂′] is measured for the first time to be (3.14±0.17stat±0.24syst)×10−5. The first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic.
