Materials Data on Pr5(In2Pt)2 by Materials Project

Abstract

Pr5(PtIn2)2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbam space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Pr sites. In the first Pr site, Pr is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Pt and six In atoms. Both Pr–Pt bond lengths are 2.95 Å. There are a spread of Pr–In bond distances ranging from 3.35–3.59 Å. In the second Pr site, Pr is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Pt and six In atoms. There are two shorter (3.04 Å) and two longer (3.11 Å) Pr–Pt bond lengths. There are a spread of Pr–In bond distances ranging from 3.46–3.54 Å. In the third Pr site, Pr is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight In atoms. There are four shorter (3.38 Å) and four longer (3.51 Å) Pr–In bond lengths. Pt is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to six Pr and two In atoms. There are one shorter (2.96 Å) and one longer (3.12 Å) Pt–In bond lengths. There are two inequivalent In sites. In the first In site, In is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to eight Pr and one Pt atom. In the second In site, In is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to eight Pr and one Pt atom.
