A new 3-D open-framework cadmium borovanadate with 6-connected topology was hydrothermally obtained and structurally characterized. It not only features new cadmium(II) borovanadate which possesses an open-framework structure with unique plane-shaped channels, but also exhibits interesting absorption properties and high catalytic activities for the oxidation of cyclohexanol.

A novel open-framework copper borophosphate, Na5KCu3[B9P6O33(OH)3]·H2O (), has been synthesised by a boric acid flux method. Its structure can be viewed as a 3-D open framework constructed by the connection of Cu(II)O6 octahedra and 1-D (4,4)-connected borophosphate anionic structures composed of trigonal-planar BO2(OH) groups, tetrahedral BO4 and PO4 groups. The compound not only features a novel borophosphate anionic partial structure containing 1-D 12-MR channels, but also exhibits ferromagnetic interactions and high catalytic activity for the oxidative degradation of chitosan.
