Rietveld refinement using powder neutron diffraction data shows that the structure of Tl2BeF4, from room temperature to 1.5 K, belongs to the ortho­rhom­bic space group Pnma, without evidence of any phase transition.

The isotypic ortho­rhom­bic dihydrogendiphosphates K2M(H2P2O7)2·2H2O (M = Ni, Cu, Zn) contain octa­hedrally coordinated M2+ cations in M(H2P2O7)2·2H2O units connected by K—O bonds and hydrogen bonds.

Bis(methylammonium) octaantimony(III) dodecasulfide persulfide, (CH3NH3)2[Sb8S12(S2)], contains pairs of [Sb4S7]2− chains joined through an unusual persulfide bond to create infinite double [Sb2S14]2− chains. The double chains contain (Sb8S10) apertures, in which methylammonium cations, formed by decomposition of 2-methylpropane-1,2-diamine during the synthesis, are located.
