Abstract

Cu2(OH)3Cl crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Cu2+ sites. In the first Cu2+ site, Cu2+ is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four O2- and two equivalent Cl1- atoms. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.95–2.01 Å. There are one shorter (2.82 Å) and one longer (2.90 Å) Cu–Cl bond lengths. In the second Cu2+ site, Cu2+ is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four O2- and two equivalent Cl1- atoms. There is two shorter (1.95 Å) and two longer (2.00 Å) Cu–O bond length. Both Cu–Cl bond lengths are 2.84 Å. In the third Cu2+ site, Cu2+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 2.00–2.37 Å. There are three inequivalent H1+ sites. In the first H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- and one Cl1- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.99 Å. The H–Cl bond length is 2.09 Å. In the second H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- and one Cl1- atom. The H–O bond length is 1.00 Å. The H–Cl bond length is 2.04 Å. In the third H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- and one Cl1- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.99 Å. The H–Cl bond length is 2.09 Å. There are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to three Cu2+ and one H1+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to three Cu2+ and one H1+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to three Cu2+ and one H1+ atom. Cl1- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to three Cu2+ and three H1+ atoms.
