Abstract

Abstract The synthesis and crystal structure of Zn6B22O39·H2O are described. This new zinc borate was synthesized at 7 GPa and 1523 K in a multianvil device. It crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pnma (no. 62) with the lattice parameters a = 818.77(4), b = 768.42(3), c = 1744.82(9) pm, V = 1.09777(9) nm3, and two formula units per unit cell (Z = 2). The structure is closely related to those of M 6B22O39·H2O (M = Fe, Co, Ni, Cd) and features non-planar (BO3) units as demonstrated by single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction techniques.
