Materials Data on Ti(SO4)2 by Materials Project

Abstract

Ti(SO4)2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbca space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ti4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form TiO6 octahedra that share corners with six SO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.93–2.02 Å. There are two inequivalent S6+ sites. In the first S6+ site, S6+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent TiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 38–42°. There are a spread of S–O bond distances ranging from 1.42–1.53 Å. In the second S6+ site, S6+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent TiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 36–44°. There are a spread of S–O bond distances ranging from 1.42–1.52 Å. There are eight inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ti4+ and one S6+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ti4+ and one S6+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ti4+ and one S6+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one S6+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ti4+ and one S6+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one S6+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ti4+ and one S6+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ti4+ and one S6+ atom.
