Y(BO2)3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pca2_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Y3+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Y–O bond distances ranging from 2.30–2.52 Å. There are three inequivalent B3+ sites. In the first B3+ site, B3+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form corner-sharing BO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.43–1.56 Å. In the second B3+ site, B3+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form corner-sharing BO4 tetrahedra. There is three shorter (1.46 Å) and one longer (1.55 Å) B–O bond length. In the third B3+ site, B3+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form corner-sharing BO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.45–1.50 Å. There are six inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three B3+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Y3+ and two B3+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two B3+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Y3+ and two B3+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to three equivalent Y3+ and one B3+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Y3+ and two equivalent B3+ atoms.
