Materials Data on Ru4C12N2O13 by Materials Project

Abstract

Ru4N2O(CO)12 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of forty-eight formaldehyde molecules and four Ru4N2O clusters. In each Ru4N2O cluster, there are four inequivalent Ru2+ sites. In the first Ru2+ site, Ru2+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N3- atom. The Ru–N bond length is 1.93 Å. In the second Ru2+ site, Ru2+ is bonded in a distorted L-shaped geometry to two N3- atoms. There are one shorter (2.06 Å) and one longer (2.20 Å) Ru–N bond lengths. In the third Ru2+ site, Ru2+ is bonded in a distorted L-shaped geometry to two N3- atoms. There are one shorter (2.06 Å) and one longer (2.21 Å) Ru–N bond lengths. In the fourth Ru2+ site, Ru2+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N3- atom. The Ru–N bond length is 1.93 Å. There are two inequivalent N3- sites. In the first N3- site, N3- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two Ru2+ and one O2- atom. The N–O bond length is 1.21 Å. In the second N3- site, N3- is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four Ru2+ atoms. O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N3- atom.
