Single crystals of BPO4were grown by chemical transport reactions with PCl5using a gradient from 1073 K to 973 K as well as with solvothermal syntheses in the temperature range between 413 K and 523 K using water, ethanol or 2‐propanol as polar protic solvents. The atomic arrangement of BPO4was reinvestigated by means of single crystal X‐ray diffraction data and confirmed the earlier findings with significantly smaller standard deviations. Thermogravimetric investigations of powdered samples which show no extra lines in X‐ray diffraction diagrams revealed weight decrements which are attributed to water losses. The presence of protonated borate and phosphate species in a number of X‐ray pure solvothermally grown BPO4samples is evidenced by infrared spectroscopy.
