Abstract
The novel non-centrosymmetric zinc borate Zn10.4B6.2O21H2.6 has been synthesized by high-temperature/high-pressure experiments. It crystallizes in the non-centrosymmetric space group P63 (no. 173) with a = 1340.05(3), c = 459.93(2) pm, V = 0.71526(4) nm3, and two formula units per unit cell (Z = 2). Within the crystal structure, two independent disorders appear, which have varying ratios depending on the experiment. The structure is built up by corner connecting (BO3), (BO4), (ZnO5), and (ZnO6) units. The novel borate is analyzed by X-ray diffraction and IR-spectroscopy.
