Materials Data on Mn(CO)5 by Materials Project

Abstract

Mn(CO)5 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of eight Mn(CO)5 clusters. Mn2+ is bonded in a square pyramidal geometry to five C+1.60+ atoms. There are a spread of Mn–C bond distances ranging from 1.82–1.86 Å. There are five inequivalent C+1.60+ sites. In the first C+1.60+ site, C+1.60+ is bonded in a linear geometry to one Mn2+ and one O2- atom. The C–O bond length is 1.16 Å. In the second C+1.60+ site, C+1.60+ is bonded in a linear geometry to one Mn2+ and one O2- atom. The C–O bond length is 1.16 Å. In the third C+1.60+ site, C+1.60+ is bonded in a linear geometry to one Mn2+ and one O2- atom. The C–O bond length is 1.16 Å. In the fourth C+1.60+ site, C+1.60+ is bonded in a linear geometry to one Mn2+ and one O2- atom. The C–O bond length is 1.16 Å. In the fifth C+1.60+ site, C+1.60+ is bonded in a linear geometry to one Mn2+ and one O2- atom. The C–O bond length is 1.16 Å. There are five inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C+1.60+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C+1.60+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C+1.60+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C+1.60+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C+1.60+ atom.
