Materials Data on RbMgH12(ClO2)3 by Materials Project

Abstract

RbCl3Mg(H2O)6 is High-temperature superconductor-derived structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional and consists of two magnesium;hexahydrate molecules and one RbCl3 framework. In the RbCl3 framework, there are two inequivalent Rb1+ sites. In the first Rb1+ site, Rb1+ is bonded to six Cl1- atoms to form corner-sharing RbCl6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 3–7°. There are a spread of Rb–Cl bond distances ranging from 3.29–3.44 Å. In the second Rb1+ site, Rb1+ is bonded to six Cl1- atoms to form corner-sharing RbCl6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 3–6°. There are a spread of Rb–Cl bond distances ranging from 3.28–3.47 Å. There are six inequivalent Cl1- sites. In the first Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two Rb1+ atoms. In the second Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two Rb1+ atoms. In the third Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Rb1+ atoms. In the fourth Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Rb1+ atoms. In the fifth Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Rb1+ atoms. In the sixth Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Rb1+ atoms.
