THE accepted structure of boron nitride, proposed by Hassel 1 and Brager 2,3 , is that of graphite with the carbon atoms replaced by boron and nitrogen atoms and is designated structure type B .12 in the “Strukturbericht” 4 . This structure does not give a good agreement between observed and calculated intensities; and as the original work is open to other criticisms, a complete redetermination has been carried out. It is concluded that the Hassel structure is incorrect.
