... that it crystallizes as a structural variant of the putative (AlV 4+,5+ 14 O 40 ) n − vanadoaluminate complex, [AlV 4+ V 5+ 12 O 39 ] 11− . That variant is derived through the random removal of one of the two apical vanadate octahedra, elucidating the cause of difficulties in the refinement of the preliminary...

... ). The primitive unit cell of gibbsite contains two sheets of Al octahedra. Half of the hydroxyls on the dioctahedral sheet lie parallel to the sheet, and the rest stand normal to the sheet because one-third of the cation sites within the gibbsite sheet are vacant ( Fig. 1a ). In contrast to gibbsite, Mg(OH) 2...
