title: A crystalline germanate with mesoporous 30-ring channels.
abstract: A novel germanate |C(6)N(2)H(18)|(30)[Ge(9)O(18)X(4)](6)[Ge(7)O(14)X(3)](4)[Ge(7)O(14.42)X(2.58)](8)[GeX(2)](1.73) (X = OH, F) with 30-ring channels built from Ge(7)O(14)X(3) (Ge(7)) and Ge(9)O(18)X(4) (Ge(9)) clusters was obtained under solvothermal conditions. It has a mesoporous pore of 13.0 x 21.4 A(2), which represents the largest pore ring found in crystalline open-framework materials. The framework can be described as a 3-D net structure and viewed as introducing Ge(7) and Ge(9) clusters into the 4,8-heterocoordinated csq net.
