Materials Data on Rb2Ce(NO3)6 by Materials Project

Abstract

Rb2Ce(NO3)6 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Rb1+ is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to ten O2- atoms. There are a spread of Rb–O bond distances ranging from 3.02–3.44 Å. Ce4+ is bonded in a cuboctahedral geometry to twelve O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ce–O bond distances ranging from 2.54–2.59 Å. There are three inequivalent N5+ sites. In the first N5+ site, N5+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of N–O bond distances ranging from 1.23–1.29 Å. In the second N5+ site, N5+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of N–O bond distances ranging from 1.23–1.29 Å. In the third N5+ site, N5+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of N–O bond distances ranging from 1.23–1.29 Å. There are nine inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Rb1+, one Ce4+, and one N5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Rb1+ and one N5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Rb1+, one Ce4+, and one N5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Rb1+ and one N5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two equivalent Rb1+ and one N5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Ce4+ and one N5+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Rb1+, one Ce4+, and one N5+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Rb1+, one Ce4+, and one N5+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two equivalent Rb1+, one Ce4+, and one N5+ atom.
