Materials Data on Os2Xe(O3F5)2 by Materials Project
Abstract
XeF5Os2O6F5 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four Os2O6F5 clusters and four XeF5 clusters. In each Os2O6F5 cluster, Os is bonded to three O and three F atoms to form distorted corner-sharing OsO3F3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 24°. There is two shorter (1.71 Å) and one longer (1.72 Å) Os–O bond length. There are a spread of Os–F bond distances ranging from 2.00–2.17 Å. There are three inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Os atom. In the second O site, O is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Os atom. In the third O site, O is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Os atom. There are three inequivalent F sites. In the first F site, F is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent Os atoms. In the second F site, F is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Os atom. In the third F site, F is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Os atom. In each XeF5 cluster, Xe is bonded in a distorted square pyramidal geometry to five F atoms. There is three shorter (1.98 Å) and two longer (1.99 Å) Xe–F bond length. There are four inequivalent F sites. In the first F site, F is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Xe atom. In the second F site, F is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Xe atom. In the third F site, F is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Xe atom. In the fourth F site, F is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Xe atom.
