Materials Data on Eu2H6Ru by Materials Project
Eu2RuH6 crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Eu2+ is bonded to twelve equivalent H1- atoms to form EuH12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent EuH12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent EuH12 cuboctahedra, and faces with four equivalent RuH6 octahedra. All Eu–H bond lengths are 2.64 Å. Ru2+ is bonded to six equivalent H1- atoms to form RuH6 octahedra that share faces with eight equivalent EuH12 cuboctahedra. All Ru–H bond lengths are 1.73 Å. H1- is bonded to four equivalent Eu2+ and one Ru2+ atom to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing HEu4Ru square pyramids.
