A new secondary building unit with edge‐sharing 3‐rings of BO 4 and GeO 4 tetrahedra (shown in the picture in turquoise and yellow, respectively) forms the basis of the framework of SU‐16, a borogermanate with zeolite topology. SU‐16 has three‐dimensional intersecting 12‐ring and 8‐ring channels. In particular the unusual elliptical 12‐ring channels may make this zeolite structure interesting for shape selectivity.
