Abstract

(Fe2MnC)2MnFe5C2 is Cementite-derived structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of one Fe2MnC sheet oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction and one MnFe5C2 sheet oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. In the Fe2MnC sheet, there are two inequivalent Mn sites. In the first Mn site, Mn is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two C atoms. There is one shorter (1.98 Å) and one longer (2.00 Å) Mn–C bond length. In the second Mn site, Mn is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two C atoms. There are one shorter (1.99 Å) and one longer (2.02 Å) Mn–C bond lengths. There are four inequivalent Fe sites. In the first Fe site, Fe is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to two C atoms. There is one shorter (1.98 Å) and one longer (1.99 Å) Fe–C bond length. In the second Fe site, Fe is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to two C atoms. Both Fe–C bond lengths are 1.97 Å. In the third Fe site, Fe is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two C atoms. There is one shorter (1.96 Å) and one longer (2.00 Å) Fe–C bond length. In the fourth Fe site, Fe is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two C atoms. There is one shorter (1.96 Å) and one longer (2.00 Å) Fe–C bond length. There are two inequivalent C sites. In the first C site, C is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two Mn and four Fe atoms. In the second C site, C is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two Mn and four Fe atoms. In the MnFe5C2 sheet, Mn is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to two C atoms. There is one shorter (1.98 Å) and one longer (1.99 Å) Mn–C bond length. There are five inequivalent Fe sites. In the first Fe site, Fe is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to two C atoms. There is one shorter (1.97 Å) and one longer (1.99 Å) Fe–C bond length. In the second Fe site, Fe is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two C atoms. There is one shorter (1.99 Å) and one longer (2.00 Å) Fe–C bond length. In the third Fe site, Fe is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two C atoms. There are one shorter (2.00 Å) and one longer (2.01 Å) Fe–C bond lengths. In the fourth Fe site, Fe is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two C atoms. There is one shorter (1.96 Å) and one longer (1.99 Å) Fe–C bond length. In the fifth Fe site, Fe is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two C atoms. There is one shorter (1.97 Å) and one longer (2.00 Å) Fe–C bond length. There are two inequivalent C sites. In the first C site, C is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to one Mn and five Fe atoms. In the second C site, C is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to one Mn and five Fe atoms.
