Abstract

CaB2(H2O3)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ca2+ sites. In the first Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.38–2.68 Å. In the second Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.47–2.70 Å. There are four inequivalent B3+ sites. In the first B3+ site, B3+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form corner-sharing BO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.46–1.52 Å.

In the third B3+ site, B3+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form corner-sharing BO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.47–1.53 Å. In the fourth B3+ site, B3+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form corner-sharing BO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.45–1.51 Å. There are eight inequivalent H1+ sites. In the first H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.99 Å. In the second H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to two O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.01 Å) and one longer (1.60 Å) H–O bond length. In the third H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.98 Å. In the fourth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.99 Å. In the fifth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.98 Å. In the sixth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.98 Å. In the seventh H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.99 Å. In the eighth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.98 Å. There are twelve inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two Ca2+ and two B3+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to two Ca2+, one B3+, and one H1+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a water-like geometry to one B3+ and one H1+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two Ca2+, one B3+, and one H1+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to two Ca2+, one B3+, and one H1+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Ca2+ and two B3+ atoms. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to one Ca2+, one B3+, and one H1+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Ca2+, one B3+, and two H1+ atoms. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Ca2+ and two B3+ atoms. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to one Ca2+, one B3+, and one H1+ atom.
