Materials Data on NaH2BrO5 by Materials Project

Abstract

NaH2O5Br crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Na sites. In the first Na site, Na is bonded to six O atoms to form NaO6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent BrO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.35–2.49 Å. In the second Na site, Na is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four O atoms. There are two shorter (2.32 Å) and two longer (2.38 Å) Na–O bond lengths. There are two inequivalent H sites. In the first H site, H is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O atom. The H–O bond length is 0.97 Å. In the second H site, H is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O atom. The H–O bond length is 0.98 Å. There are five inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Na, one H, and one O atom. The O–O bond length is 1.47 Å. In the second O site, O is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Na and one Br atom. The O–Br bond length is 1.65 Å. In the third O site, O is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Na and one Br atom. The O–Br bond length is 1.66 Å. In the fourth O site, O is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Na, one H, and one Br atom. The O–Br bond length is 2.06 Å. In the fifth O site, O is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Na, one O, and one Br atom. The O–Br bond length is 2.15 Å. Br is bonded to four O atoms to form distorted BrO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent NaO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 28–29°.
