Materials Data on TeC4S4N8(ClO)2 by Materials Project

Abstract

C4TeS2(N4Cl)2(SO)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four sulfur monoxide molecules and two C4TeS2(N4Cl)2 clusters. In each C4TeS2(N4Cl)2 cluster, there are two inequivalent C4+ sites. In the first C4+ site, C4+ is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two N1- atoms. There is one shorter (1.31 Å) and one longer (1.32 Å) C–N bond length. In the second C4+ site, C4+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two N1- atoms. There is one shorter (1.18 Å) and one longer (1.31 Å) C–N bond length. There are four inequivalent N1- sites. In the first N1- site, N1- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one C4+ and one Te6+ atom. The N–Te bond length is 2.05 Å. In the second N1- site, N1- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one C4+ and one Cl1- atom. The N–Cl bond length is 1.70 Å. In the third N1- site, N1- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one C4+ and one S2- atom. The N–S bond length is 1.59 Å. In the fourth N1- site, N1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C4+ atom. Te6+ is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to two equivalent N1- and two equivalent S2- atoms. Both Te–S bond lengths are 2.68 Å. S2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one N1- and one Te6+ atom. Cl1- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one N1- atom.
