The structure of Ba5Cl4(H2O)8(PVO5)8 consists of alternating anionic oxovanadium phosphate (VPO5) and cationic barium chloride hydrate, Ba5Cl4(H2O)8, layers. These layers are linked through Ba—O bonds, generating a three-dimensional framework.

The La3(Zn0.874Mg0.126)11 and Ce3(Zn0.863Mg0.137)11 intermetallic compounds are isostructural and crystallize in the orthorhombic La3Al11 structure type. Compared to the structure of La3Al11, in La3(Zn0.874Mg0.126)11, a significant decrease of 11.9% in the unit-cell b axis and and an increase in the other two directions, of 3.6% along a and 5.2% along c, are observed. Such an atypical deformation is caused by the closer packing of atoms in the unit cell due to atom shifts that reflect strengthening of metallic-type bonding.

A sample of synthetic (Fe0.81Al0.19)(H2PO4)3 was prepared by hydrothermal methods in order to determine the crystal structure. The compound is a new monoclinic variety (γ-form) and the structure is based on a two-dimensional framework of distorted corner-sharing MO6 (M = Fe, Al) polyhedra sharing corners with PO4 tetrahedra.

The crystal structure of dithallium carbonate, Tl2CO3 (C2/m, Z = 4), is stable to 5.82 GPa and does not undergo any phase transitions at lower pressures as reported previously. At higher pressures, the material undergoes a phase transition that destroys the single crystal.
