Crystalline borates have received great attention due to their various structures and wide applications. For a long time, the corner-sharing B-O unit is considered a basic rule in borate structural chemistry. The DyBO synthesized under high-pressure is the first oxoborate with edge-sharing [BO] tetrahedra, while the KZnBO is the first ambient pressure borate with the edge-sharing [BO] tetrahedra. The edge-sharing connection modes greatly enrich the structural chemistry of borates and are expected to expand new applications in the future. In this review, we summarize the recent progress in crystalline borates with edge-sharing [BO] tetrahedra. We discuss the synthesis, fundamental building blocks, structural features, and possible applications of these edge-sharing borates. Finally, we also discuss the future perspectives in this field.
由于具有多种结构和广泛的应用，晶态硼酸盐受到了极大的关注。长期以来，共用角的 B-O 单元被认为是硼酸盐结构化学的基本规则。在高压下合成的 DyBO 是第一个具有共用边的[BO]四面体的氧硼酸盐，而 KZnBO 则是第一个具有共用边的[BO]四面体的常压硼酸盐。共用边的连接方式极大地丰富了硼酸盐的结构化学，并有望在未来拓展新的应用。在这篇综述中，我们总结了具有共用边[BO]四面体的晶态硼酸盐的最新进展。我们讨论了这些硼酸盐的合成、基本结构单元、结构特征和可能的应用。最后，我们还讨论了该领域的未来展望。
