title: A pillared-layered zincoborate with an anionic network containing unprecedented zinc oxide chains.
abstract: A semiconducting zincoborate with a pillared-layered structure, has been prepared under solvothermal conditions, showing the first example of an inorganic-organic hybrid zincoborate with an anionic network based on the interesting zinc oxide chains linked by boron atoms and B3O7H2 clusters, which are further pillared by diamine molecules to form the 3-D framework.
