Materials Data on CaSnF6 by Materials Project
CaSnF6 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ca2+ is bonded to six equivalent F1- atoms to form CaF6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent SnF6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 23°. All Ca–F bond lengths are 2.27 Å. Sn4+ is bonded to six equivalent F1- atoms to form SnF6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent CaF6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 23°. All Sn–F bond lengths are 2.00 Å. F1- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ca2+ and one Sn4+ atom.
