Materials Data on Fe2(SO7)3 by Materials Project

Abstract

FeO6(Fe(SO5)2)3(O2)3 is Tungsten Carbide-like structured and crystallizes in the trigonal P-31c space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two chebi:30649 molecules, six molecular oxygen molecules, and two Fe(SO5)2 clusters. In each Fe(SO5)2 cluster, there are two inequivalent Fe sites. In the first Fe site, Fe is bonded to six equivalent O atoms to form FeO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent SO4 tetrahedra. All Fe–O bond lengths are 2.02 Å. In the second Fe site, Fe is bonded to six O atoms to form FeO6 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent SO4 tetrahedra. There is three shorter (1.78 Å) and three longer (1.94 Å) Fe–O bond length. S is bonded to four O atoms to form SO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two FeO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 42–46°. There are a spread of S–O bond distances ranging from 1.46–1.53 Å. There are five inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Fe atom. In the second O site, O is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Fe and one S atom. In the third O site, O is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one S atom. In the fourth O site, O is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Fe and one S atom. In the fifth O site, O is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one S atom.
