Abstract
The compound CU2Zn(B2O5)O was prepared by using a B2O3 flux technique? and single crystals were investigated by X-ray diffraction (monoclini c symmetry, space group C-2h(5) - P2(1)/C) The structure is isotypic t o Cu2Co(B2O5)O With lattice parameters a = 327.35(2), b = 1479.4(3), c = 915.39(13), beta = 95.794(11)degrees, Z = 3, but with the significa nt difference that zinc is pentacoordinated by oxygen. Copper exhibits a nearly square planar or a square pyramidal coordination, respective ly. The structure contains isolated B2O5 units and oxygen which is not coordinated to boron.
