  • (Zachariasen, 1938) originally determined the structure of this compound without knowing the positions of the hydrogens. They believed the structure to be correctly written as KH$_{2}$(H$_{3}$O)$_{2}$B$_{5}$O$_{10}$. (Gottfried, 1940) gave this the Strukturbericht designation $K3_{5}$. (Zachariasen, 1963) did a refinement of the structure, including the hydrogen positions, noting that the structure should properly be written K[B$_{5}$O$_{6}$(OH)$_{4}$]·2H$_{2}$O. As neither the positions of the heavy atoms nor the space group have changed, we retain the $K3_{5}$ designation, but we give the prototype as KB$_{5}$O$_{8}$·4H$_{2}$O, which seems to be the standard designation even though it is not structurally correct.
