in a closed system at 400 °C. The structure of PKU-6, characterized by using powder and single-crystal X-ray diffraction, consists
of AlO5 square-pyramidal chains and B3O7 groups, which are
interconnected and form a three-dimensional framework. The 27Al
NMR study indicates that the isotropic chemical shift of pyramidal
Al is 34.6 ppm with a large quadrupolar coupling constant (CQ =
4.2 MHz), mainly due to a nonspherical coordination environment.
