EuYAl6(BO3)8 is Calcite-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic C2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Eu3+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are two shorter (2.38 Å) and four longer (2.40 Å) Eu–O bond lengths. Y3+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Y–O bond distances ranging from 2.33–2.35 Å. There are four inequivalent Al3+ sites. In the first Al3+ site, Al3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form edge-sharing AlO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Al–O bond distances ranging from 1.86–1.96 Å. In the second Al3+ site, Al3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form edge-sharing AlO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Al–O bond distances ranging from 1.85–1.96 Å. In the third Al3+ site, Al3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form edge-sharing AlO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Al–O bond distances ranging from 1.86–1.95 Å. In the fourth Al3+ site, Al3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form edge-sharing AlO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Al–O bond distances ranging from 1.88–1.95 Å. There are four inequivalent B3+ sites. In the first B3+ site, B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There is two shorter (1.37 Å) and one longer (1.39 Å) B–O bond length. In the second B3+ site, B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There is two shorter (1.38 Å) and one longer (1.39 Å) B–O bond length. In the third B3+ site, B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.36–1.39 Å. In the fourth B3+ site, B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. All B–O bond lengths are 1.39 Å. There are twelve inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two Al3+ and one B3+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two Al3+ and one B3+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two Al3+ and one B3+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two Al3+ and one B3+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two Al3+ and one B3+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two Al3+ and one B3+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Eu3+, one Al3+, and one B3+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Y3+, one Al3+, and one B3+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Y3+, one Al3+, and one B3+ atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Eu3+, one Al3+, and one B3+ atom. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Eu3+, one Al3+, and one B3+ atom. In the twelfth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Y3+, one Al3+, and one B3+ atom.
