Abstract
The new zinc borate Zn3B4O9was synthesized at high‐pressure/high‐temperature conditions of 10 GPa and 1173 K in a Walker‐type multianvil pressure device. It crystallizes in the space groupP(no. 2) witha=5.5028(2) Å,b=6.7150(3) Å,c=7.8887(3) Å,α=83.99(1)°,β=73.38(1)°,γ=74.75(1)°,V=269.35(2) Å3, and two formula units (Z=2) per unit cell. The structure was confirmed via single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. Zn3B4O9can be synthesized phase pure, which is shown with a Rietveld refinement. IR‐spectroscopic data of a powder sample were collected.Keywords
