description: Ca4ZrTi3(SiO5)4 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ca2+ sites. In the first Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.24–2.71 Å. In the second Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.29–2.71 Å. Zr4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form ZrO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent TiO6 octahedra and corners with four SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 44°. There are a spread of Zr–O bond distances ranging from 2.02–2.15 Å. There are three inequivalent Ti4+ sites. In the first Ti4+ site, Ti4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form TiO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent TiO6 octahedra and corners with four SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 37°. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.90–2.04 Å. In the second Ti4+ site, Ti4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form TiO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent ZrO6 octahedra and corners with four SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 44°. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.86–2.08 Å. In the third Ti4+ site, Ti4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form TiO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent TiO6 octahedra and corners with four SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 37°. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.90–2.05 Å. There are two inequivalent Si4+ sites. In the first Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one ZrO6 octahedra and corners with three TiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 36–55°. There is three shorter (1.65 Å) and one longer (1.66 Å) Si–O bond length. In the second Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one ZrO6 octahedra and corners with three TiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 39–53°. There is two shorter (1.65 Å) and two longer (1.66 Å) Si–O bond length. There are ten inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Ca2+, one Ti4+, and one Si4+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Ca2+, one Ti4+, and one Si4+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Ca2+, one Zr4+, and one Si4+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Ca2+, one Ti4+, and one Si4+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two Ca2+, one Zr4+, and one Si4+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two Ca2+, one Ti4+, and one Si4+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two Ca2+, one Ti4+, and one Si4+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two Ca2+, one Ti4+, and one Si4+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Ca2+, one Zr4+, and one Ti4+ atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Ca2+ and two Ti4+ atoms.
