MnBO3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P-6 space group. Mn(1) is bonded to one O(3), two equivalent O(1), and two equivalent O(2) atoms to form distorted edge-sharing MnO5 square pyramids. There are three inequivalent B sites. In the first B site, B(1) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent O(1) atoms. In the second B site, B(2) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent O(3) atoms. In the third B site, B(3) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent O(2) atoms. There are three inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Mn(1) and one B(1) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Mn(1) and one B(3) atom. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Mn(1) and one B(2) atom.
