The dependence of the interlayer distance d on the degree of unidimensional disorder {gamma} in graphite-like BN was determined. It was established that d = 0.33273 {plus_minus} 0.00006 nm at 20{degrees} in the perfectly ordered structure ({gamma}=O); the value of d increased uniformly with increase of {gamma}, and at {gamma} = 1 it equals 0.343 {plus_minus} 0.001 nm. It was also established that the yield of wurtsite phase produced by impact compression of the graphite-like modification sharply decreases with increase of {gamma}, and for {gamma} {ge} 0.2 it becomes equal to zero. This result is explained in terms of the nature of martensitic transformatons in layered structures.
