Materials Data on Sn3(HO2)2 by Materials Project

Abstract

Sn3(HO2)2 is Indium structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P-42_1c space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two Sn3(HO2)2 clusters. there are two inequivalent Sn2+ sites. In the first Sn2+ site, Sn2+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Sn–O bond distances ranging from 2.14–2.42 Å. In the second Sn2+ site, Sn2+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four O2- atoms. There are two shorter (2.17 Å) and two longer (2.37 Å) Sn–O bond lengths. H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 1.00 Å. There are two inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to three Sn2+ and one H1+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three Sn2+ atoms.
