Materials Data on CoP6(N2O11)2 by Materials Project

Abstract

CoP6(N2O11)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two CoP6(N2O11)2 clusters. Co2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CoO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent PO4 tetrahedra. There is four shorter (1.76 Å) and two longer (1.97 Å) Co–O bond length. There are three inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one CoO6 octahedra and corners with two PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 58°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.46–1.68 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form corner-sharing PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.45–1.69 Å. In the third P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form corner-sharing PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.45–1.74 Å. There are two inequivalent N3+ sites. In the first N3+ site, N3+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The N–O bond length is 1.31 Å. In the second N3+ site, N3+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The N–O bond length is 1.28 Å. There are eleven inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Co2+ and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Co2+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one P5+ and one N3+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one P5+ and one N3+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one P5+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Co2+ atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one P5+ atom.
