By using high-energy and high-brilliant synchrotron radiation source in ESRF and PF, an angle-dispersive powder x-ray diffraction study on oxygen has been carried out up to 117 GPa at room temperature. A new highpressure structural transition was observed at 96 GPa and explained as an isostructural one with a discontinuous change of lattice constants in a monoclinic cell. Metallization for oxygen reported by S. Desgreniers et al. [1] is ascribed to the transtion.
