Materials Data on CIClF4 by Materials Project
CIClF4 is Ammonia-derived structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmce space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of eight CIClF4 clusters. C is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one I and three F atoms. The C–I bond length is 2.25 Å. There is one shorter (1.33 Å) and two longer (1.34 Å) C–F bond length. I is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to one C, one Cl, and one F atom. The I–Cl bond length is 2.45 Å. The I–F bond length is 2.06 Å. Cl is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one I atom. There are three inequivalent F sites. In the first F site, F is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one I atom. In the second F site, F is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C atom. In the third F site, F is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C atom.
