Cobaltite YBaCo4O7, abbreviated as Y114, is one of the most thoroughly investigated perovskites, owing largely to its interesting magnetic properties.

A new lithium vanadium fluoride Li2VF6 was prepared by reacting lithium fluoride LiF with vanadium tetrafluoride VF4 in a monel capsule at 500 °C. The crystal structure has been determined by means of powder X-ray diffraction. Trirutile-type dilithium hexafluorovanadate(IV) crystallizes in the tetragonal space group P42/mnmwith lattice parameters a=459.99(1), b=459:99(1), c=896.64(2) pm. The presence of a Jahn-Teller effect is discussed.

Crystalline Na[MnF4(H2O)2] and Na[MnF4(H2O)2] · H2O have been precipitated from aqueous HF solution of MnO(OH) and NaF. The crystal structure determination of the trihydrate (space group C 2/c, Z = 8, α = 1638.1(2), b = 667.6(2), c = 1130.3(1) pm, β = 103.78(1)°; R/wR = 0.038/0.033 for 1696 independent reflections) showed the presence of isolated octahedral trans-[MnF4(H2O)2]- anions with an elongation of the H2O-Mn—OH2 axis due to the Jahn-Teller effect (Mn 1-O 224.6(2), Mn 1—F(mean) 183.7(1); Mn2-0 218.3(2), Mn2— F(mean) 184.7(2) pm). As a consequence, an unusual H-bond geometry is observed with a tetrahedral (instead of trigonal) environment of the coordinated O atoms. Na[MnF4(H2O)2] is monoclinic (space group C 2/m, C 2 or Cm, a = 816.6(4), b = 677.1(1), c = 496.8(2), β = 114.45(3)°), the crystals show twinning and 1-dimensional disorder.

A new form of Cu3V2O8 was prepared at 30 kbar and 900 °C. The unit cell has dimensions a = 6.2493(9), b = 7.9936(9), c = 6.3776(10) Å, β = 111.49(1)°, and the space group is P2/c. The crystal structure, refined by least-squares to a final R = 0.054, using 848 reflections, is similar to that of Mg3V2O8. Chains of edge-shared M2 octahedra run along the c axis at about y = ± 1/4 with M1 octahedra sharing two edges with the M2 octahedra. These octahedral networks at about y = ± 1/4 are linked by corner-shared V–O tetrahedra. The distortion from the Mg3V2O8 structure can be explained on the basis of the Jahn–Teller effect in which four of the octahedral Cu—O distances shorten to 1.93–1.99 Å and two Cu—O distances lengthen to 2.3–2.6 Å.
