Abstract
(MgO2)3Mg3Si4O12 crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of two Mg3Si4O12 sheets oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction and two MgO2 sheets oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. In each Mg3Si4O12 sheet, there are three inequivalent Mg sites. In the first Mg site, Mg is bonded to six O atoms to form MgO6 octahedra that share corners with four SiO4 tetrahedra and edges with six MgO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Mg–O bond distances ranging from 2.09–2.13 Å. In the second Mg site, Mg is bonded to six O atoms to form MgO6 octahedra that share corners with four SiO4 tetrahedra and edges with six MgO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Mg–O bond distances ranging from 2.01–2.20 Å. In the third Mg site, Mg is bonded to six O atoms to form MgO6 octahedra that share corners with four SiO4 tetrahedra and edges with six MgO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Mg–O bond distances ranging from 2.02–2.22 Å. There are four inequivalent Si sites. In the first Si site, Si is bonded to four O atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three MgO6 octahedra and cornersmore »

The structure is two-dimensional and consists of two Mg3Si4O12 sheets oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction and two MgO2 sheets oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. In each Mg3Si4O12 sheet, there are three inequivalent Mg sites.
