Abstract
The crystal structure of dilithiumzine orthogermanate, Li2ZnGeO4, has been determined and refined byFourier syntheses and least-squares, using three dimensional single-crystal data. A finalR-value of 5.7% was obtained. The monoclinic unit cell (Pn−Cs 2) with the dimensionsa=6.40,b=5.45,c=5.04 Å and β=90.2° contains two formula units Li2ZnGeO4. The crystal structure is built up by [GeO4] tetrahedra, which are linked together by [LiO4] and [ZnO4] tetrahedra. The average interatomic distances are found to be: Ge−O=1.77, Li−O=2.01 and Zn−O=1.93 Å.
