The single-crystal XRD analysis shows that it crystallizes in triclinic space group P■ with a = 8.9601(5), b = 9.1835(6), c = 10.6574(7) ?, a = 95.050(6)°, b = 111.569(5)°, g = 90.280(6)°, V = 811.71(9) ?3, Z = 2, Mr = 719.46, Dc = 2.944 g/cm3, μ = 5.127 mm-1, F(000) = 660, R = 0.0361 and wR = 0.0855 for 3846 observed reflections and 262 variables. This compound represents a new structure that features a three-dimensional [Al4B6O17]n4n- framework constructed by AlO4 tetrahedra, BO3 triangles, and B2O54-groups composed of two corner-sharing BO3 triangles, with intersecting open channels accommodating Ba2+ cations. It melts incongruently at 849 ℃. The existence of BO3 groups is confirmed by FT-IR and Raman spectra. The insulating nature with an optical band gap of about 3.50 eV is revealed by UV-VIS diffuse reflectance spectrum. Band structure calculations indicate that it is an indirect band material.展开更多
