Single crystals of NaFe3V3O12 have been prepared by solid state reaction below the melting point of the reaction mixture. This compound is isotypic to the mineral Howardevansite but shows lower triclinic symmetry, space group C11–P1, a = 6.757(2), b = 8.155(2), c = 9.816(3) Å, α = 106.05(2), β = 104.401(9), γ = 102.09(2)°, Z = 2. The acentric space group is caused by the sodium positions, all other atoms comply with the space group P̄ of Howardevansite. The different ions are coordinated by O2- forming VO4 tetrahedra, FeO6 octahedra, trigonal FeO5 bipyramids and irregular NaO5 and NaO7 polyhedra, respectively. The crystal chemistry is discussed with respect to Howardevansite.
