Materials Data on PtS2(NO2)4 by Materials Project

Abstract

Pt(SO4)2(N2)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of eight ammonia molecules and two Pt(SO4)2 clusters. In each Pt(SO4)2 cluster, Pt2+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent O2- atoms. Both Pt–O bond lengths are 2.02 Å. S2- is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of S–O bond distances ranging from 1.46–1.59 Å. There are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one S2- atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Pt2+ and one S2- atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one S2- atom.
