The hydrothermal technique is an efficient strategy to synthesize mineralogically inspired structures, including natural and synthetic cuprate minerals with a variety of exciting frustrated magnetic lattices. We report the hydrothermal synthesis of single crystals of a new material Cu4(SO4)(OH)6. Single-crystal x-ray and neutron diffraction studies performed to determine the crystal structure reveal the presence of three copper layers which stack in an ABACABAC pattern in the crystal, which results in a large b lattice constant of 25Å. Seemingly-distorted and -expanded SO42− tetrahedra in the system are likely attributable to vacancies and structural disorder. The Cu2+ copper ions are arranged in buckled sheets consisting of ribbons of edge-sharing and corner-sharing octahedra, and form a heavily distorted triangular lattice. Diffuse scattering measured with synchrotron x-rays also reveals strong stacking-fault disorder in this system. We report details of the crystal structure and its low temperature magnetic properties.
