TY - JOUR A1 - Fuchs, Birgit A1 - Johrendt, Dirk A1 - Bayarjargal, Lkhamsuren A1 - Huppertz, Hubert T1 - The first high-pressure chromium oxonitridoborate CrB4O6N - an unexpected link to nitridosilicate chemistry T2 - Angewandte Chemie N2 - CrB4O6N crystallizes in the non-centrosymmetric space group P63mc (no. 186) with the lattice parameters a=5.1036(1), c=8.3519(3) Å, and a volume of 188.40(1) Å3. It was synthesized in a high-pressure/high-temperature experiment at 7 GPa and 1673 K and represents the first high-pressure oxonitridoborate. It is built up of starlike-shaped entities of four BO3N tetrahedra, connected via one common nitrogen atom that resembles the fourfold-coordinated nitrogen atoms in the homeotypic nitridosilicates MYbSi4N7 (M=Sr, Ba). Building up a network with channels that contain the Cr3+ ions, CrB4O6N contains for the first time a tetrahedral building unit in contrast to trigonal planar B(O/N)3 entities in all other known oxonitridoborates. The structural relations as well as the results of spectroscopic measurements and calculations on the chromium oxonitridoborate are discussed.
