LaInO3, a promising ion conductor for a holistic solid oxide fuel cell, was synthesized by a solid-state reaction method. The structure was refined by the Rietveld method using X-ray powder diffraction data. The structure of LaInO3 is distorted by the in-phase and antiphase tilting of oxygen octahedra in the a+b−b− system of the InO6 polyhedra.

The crystal structures of the two bismuth(III) oxalate hydrates [Bi2(C2O4)3(H2O)4]·4H2O and [Bi2(C2O4)3(H2O)4]·2H2O are both based on three-dimensional networks of nine-coordinated Bi atoms, connected by tetradentate oxalate groups. The ligand and `free' water molecules are located in channels and voids.
