Materials Data on AgC4(BrO)2 by Materials Project

Abstract

AgCO2C(BrC)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is one-dimensional and consists of eight bromomethane molecules; four methane molecules; and two AgCO2 ribbons oriented in the (0, 1, 0) direction. In each AgCO2 ribbon, Ag1+ is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ag–O bond distances ranging from 2.23–2.59 Å. C+1.25+ is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.26 Å) and one longer (1.28 Å) C–O bond length. There are two inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Ag1+ and one C+1.25+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ag1+ and one C+1.25+ atom.
