摘要: Abstract The crystal structure of α-AlB12 (tetragonal; a = 10.158(2) A, c 14.270(5) space group P41212 or P43212) has been determined by the single-crystal X-ray diffraction method. It was solved Fourier technique initially based on partial B12 icosahedral structure, which inferred from chemical considerations. Refinement made with aid full-matrix least-squares program leading to final R value 3.0%. is three-dimensional framework consisting icosahedra, B19 units, and single B atoms; unit twinned icosahedron triangular composition plane vacant apex each side. Al3.2·2B12·B·B19 its number in cell 4. Al atoms are distributed statistically over five sites boron framework. occupancies 72, 49, 24, 15, 2%, respectively.
