Single crystals of two novel shchurovskyite-related compounds, K2Cu[Cu3O]2(PO4)4 (1) and K2.35Cu0.825[Cu3O]2(PO4)4 (2), were synthesized by crystallization from gaseous phase and structurally characterized using single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The crystal structures of both compounds are based upon similar Cu-based layers, formed by rods of the [O2Cu6] dimers of oxocentered (OCu4) tetrahedra. The topologies of the layers show both similarities and differences from the shchurovskyite-type layers. The layers are connected in different fashions via additional Cu atoms located in the interlayer, in contrast to shchurovskyite, where the layers are linked by Ca2+ cations. The structures of the shchurovskyite family are characterized using information-based structural complexity measures, which demonstrate that the crystal structure of 1 is the simplest one, whereas that of 2 is the most complex in the family.

Abstract Single crystals of I RbCd4V3O12 and TlCd4V3O12 II have been prepared by solid state reactions in closed iron tubes. The compounds crystallize closely related to the Johillerite structure in the space group C62h- C2/c with I: a = 13.058(3); b - 13.528(3), c = 7 .0 6 0 (2 )Å , β = 114.88(2)°; II: a = 12.999(6), b = 13.527(7), c = 7.055(3) Å , β = 114.88(4)°, Z = 4. Special features are the loss of Cu2+ in order to gain an additional Cd2+ position. The crystal structure is discussed with respect to related compounds of the Johillerite type.
