Materials Data on PuCoC2 by Materials Project
PuCoC2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Amm2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Pu6+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent C4- atoms. There are four shorter (2.66 Å) and four longer (2.67 Å) Pu–C bond lengths. Co2+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent C4- atoms. There is two shorter (1.94 Å) and two longer (1.97 Å) Co–C bond length. C4- is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Pu6+, two equivalent Co2+, and one C4- atom. The C–C bond length is 1.40 Å.
