Materials Data on SrSbF5 by Materials Project

Abstract

SrSbF5 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Sr2+ is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to ten F1- atoms. There are a spread of Sr–F bond distances ranging from 2.52–2.88 Å. Sb3+ is bonded in a distorted square pyramidal geometry to five F1- atoms. There are one shorter (2.00 Å) and four longer (2.14 Å) Sb–F bond lengths. There are three inequivalent F1- sites. In the first F1- site, F1- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Sr2+ and one Sb3+ atom. In the second F1- site, F1- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two equivalent Sr2+ and one Sb3+ atom. In the third F1- site, F1- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Sr2+ and one Sb3+ atom.
