Abstract

Mg10Ge3(H2O9)2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnn2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are seven inequivalent Mg2+ sites. In the first Mg2+ site, Mg2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form MgO6 octahedra that share corners with four MgO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent GeO4 tetrahedra, edges with two equivalent GeO6 octahedra, and edges with seven MgO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 5–16°. There are a spread of Mg–O bond distances ranging from 2.08–2.19 Å. In the second Mg2+ site, Mg2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form MgO6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one GeO6 octahedra, corners with four MgO6 octahedra, a cornercorner with one GeO4 tetrahedra, an edgeedge with one GeO6 octahedra, and edges with six MgO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 1–55°. There are a spread of Mg–O bond distances ranging from 2.05–2.23 Å. In the third Mg2+ site, Mg2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted MgO6 octahedra that share corners with five MgO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent GeO4 tetrahedra, an edgeedge with one GeO6 octahedra, and edges with five MgO6 octahedra.
