Inside Back Cover: “114”‐Type Nitrides LnAl(Si4−xAlx)N7Oδ with Unusual [AlN6] Octahedral Coordination (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 14/2017)

An unusual octahedral coordination of Al in [AlN6] (red in Picture) is discovered in a novel nitride with a Swedenborgite‐type structure. In their Communication on page 3886 ff., S. F. Huang, Z. H. Huang, T. Söhnel, and co‐workers solve the crystal structure by using synchrotron, X‐ray, and neutron...

Description
Summary:An unusual octahedral coordination of Al in [AlN6] (red in Picture) is discovered in a novel nitride with a Swedenborgite‐type structure. In their Communication on page 3886 ff., S. F. Huang, Z. H. Huang, T. Söhnel, and co‐workers solve the crystal structure by using synchrotron, X‐ray, and neutron diffraction, and present 27Al NMR spectral confirmation for such a unique coordination. They also clarify that the extra atoms (green) are distributed around the [AlN6] octahedra in a disordered manner.
