Materials Data on Co2C by Materials Project
Co2C is Hydrophilite structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnnm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Co2+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent C4- atoms. All Co–C bond lengths are 1.90 Å. C4- is bonded to six equivalent Co2+ atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing CCo6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 52°.
