Materials Data on Pr2B3Cl by Materials Project
Pr2B3Cl crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Pr is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent B and three equivalent Cl atoms. All Pr–B bond lengths are 2.80 Å. All Pr–Cl bond lengths are 3.09 Å. B is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Pr and four equivalent B atoms. There is two shorter (1.79 Å) and two longer (1.80 Å) B–B bond length. Cl is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pr atoms.
