Refinement of lithium tetrahydroxoborate with low-temperature CCD data
Abstract
Refinement of the title compound, Li B(OH)4, with CCD data at 120 K has led to a sevenfold increase in precision over the previously reported structure based on film data. The H atoms have been located and refined. Both Li and B are tetrahedrally coordinated. B—O distances are in the range 1.4644 (14)–1.4989 (13) Å, while Li—O distances are in the range 1.931 (2)–2.022 (2) Å.
