A copper and 4-hydroxypyrimidine-5-carbonitrile based MOF presents a flexible 2D-layered structure in which, as shown by high pressure X-ray diffraction, the interlayer separation is modulated between 3.01 to 2.78 Å with varying conductive properties.

An experimental study on ordered pyrochlore structured Gd 1.5 Ce 0.5 Ti 2 O 7 ( F d 3 ¯ m ) was carried out up to 45 GPa by synchrotron radiation X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. Experimental results show that Gd 1.5 Ce 0.5 Ti 2 O 7 transfers to a disordered cotunnite-like phase ( Pnma Z = 4) at approximately 42 GPa. Compared with the end member Gd 2 Ti 2 O 7 , the substitution of Ce 3+ for Gd 3+ increases the transition pressure and the high-pressure stability of the pyrochlore phase. This pressure-induced structure transition is mainly controlled by cationic order–disorder modification, and the cationic radius ratio r A / r B may also be effective for predicting the pyrochlore oxides' high-pressure stability. Two isostructural transitions are observed at 6.5 GPa and 13 GPa, and the unit-cell volume of Gd 1.5 Ce 0.5 Ti 2 O 7 as a function of pressure demonstrates its compression behaviour is rather complex.

The zeolitic imidazolate frameworks ZIF-8 and ZIF-67 harbour a series of fascinating stimuli responsive properties. Looking at their responsitivity to hydrostatic pressure as stimulus, open questions exist regarding the isotropic compression with non-penetrating pressure transmitting media. By applying a state-of-the-art high-pressure powder X-ray diffraction setup, we revisit the high-pressure behaviour of ZIF-8 and ZIF-67 up to <i>p</i> = 0.4 GPa in small pressure increments. We observe a drastic, reversible change of high-pressure powder X-ray diffraction data at <i>p</i> = 0.3 GPa, discovering large volume structural flexibility in ZIF-8 and ZIF-67. Our results imply a shallow underlying energy landscape in ZIF-8 and ZIF-67, an observation that might point at rich polymorphism of ZIF-8 and ZIF-67, similar to ZIF-4(Zn).<br>

AbstractThe mixed cation triel borate Ga4In4B15O33(OH)3 was synthesized in a Walker-type multianvil apparatus at high-pressure/high-temperature conditions of 12.5 GPa and 1300°C. Although the product could not be reproduced in further experiments, its crystal structure could be reliably determined via single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. Ga4In4B15O33(OH)3 crystallizes in the tetragonal space group I41/a (origin choice 2) with the lattice parameters a = 11.382(2), c = 15.244(2) Å, and V = 1974.9(4) Å3. The structure of the quaternary triel borate consists of a complex network of BO4 tetrahedra, edge-sharing InO6 octahedra in dinuclear units, and very dense edge-sharing GaO6 octahedra in tetranuclear units.
