The crystal structure of magnesium selenite 7.5-hydrate is characterized by two crystallographically distinct [Mg(H2O)6]2+ octahedra, one of which is disordered over two different orientations. The selenite groups and water molecules (with partially disordered H atoms) bridge the octahedra via hydrogen bonds.

The structure of monoclinic Cu3(SeO3)2Cl2 is based on layers of CuO4Cl trigonal bipyramids, CuO4 square planes and SeO3E tetrahedra. The Cu polyhedra are connected by edge- and corner-sharing to form [010] chains and these chains are bridged by the Se atoms to form (001) layers. The compound is isostructural with Cu3(TeO3)2Br2.

The structure of Mg2Ru2Cl10O·16H2O consists of layers of [Ru2Cl10O]4− anions, [Mg(H2O)6]2+ cations and water molecules stacked along the a axis. Only the O atom bonded to Ru occupies the 2a site with symmetry. All the other atoms occupy general 4e sites. The crystal structure is stabilized by O—H⋯O and O—H⋯Cl interactions.

A new quaternary compound in the Ca–Eu–Sn–O system, namely calcium europium tin heptaoxide, Ca1.5Eu3Sn0.5O7, was prepared by solid-state reaction at 2073 K. All atoms in the structure are on 4i special positions (on mirrors) in space group C2/m. Ca/Eu sites are situated within two O octahedra and within two sevenfold coordination sites surrounded by O-capped trigonal prisms. A Ca/Eu/Sn site is coordinated by five O atoms. The compound has a new structure related to the structure of B-form Eu2O3.

Poly[1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane(2+) [hepta-μ-sulfido-trisulfidohexaantimony(III)]], {(C10H26N4)[Sb6S10]}n, was synthesized solvothermally using the macrocyclic tetramine 1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (cyclam) as the structure-directing agent. The structure consists of novel [Sb6S10]2− layers containing Sb2S2, Sb4S4 and Sb7S7 hetero-rings, which are separated by macrocyclic amine molecules. The macrocylic amine molecules are disordered over two crystallographically distinct positions and are diprotonated in order to balance the charge of the anionic layers.
