Abstract

SbCl6N2Se3Cl is Modderite-like structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two N2Se3Cl clusters and two SbCl6 clusters. In each N2Se3Cl cluster, there are two inequivalent N5+ sites. In the first N5+ site, N5+ is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two Se2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.74 Å) and one longer (1.79 Å) N–Se bond length. In the second N5+ site, N5+ is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two Se2- atoms. Both N–Se bond lengths are 1.74 Å. There are three inequivalent Se2- sites. In the first Se2- site, Se2- is bonded in a water-like geometry to two N5+ atoms. In the second Se2- site, Se2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N5+ atom. In the third Se2- site, Se2- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to one N5+ and one Cl1- atom. The Se–Cl bond length is 2.29 Å. Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Se2- atom. In one of the SbCl6 clusters, Sb3+ is bonded in an octahedral geometry to six Cl1- atoms. There are a spread of Sb–Cl bond distances ranging from 2.40–2.45 Å. There are six inequivalent Cl1- sites. In the first Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Sb3+ atom. In the second Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb3+ atom. In the third Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb3+ atom. In the fourth Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb3+ atom. In the fifth Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Sb3+ atom. In the sixth Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Sb3+ atom. In one of the SbCl6 clusters, Sb3+ is bonded in an octahedral geometry to six Cl1- atoms. There are a spread of Sb–Cl bond distances ranging from 2.40–2.43 Å. There are six inequivalent Cl1- sites. In the first Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb3+ atom. In the second Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb3+ atom. In the third Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb3+ atom. In the fourth Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb3+ atom. In the fifth Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb3+ atom. In the sixth Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb3+ atom.
