Materials Data on LiIrF6 by Materials Project
LiIrF6 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded to six equivalent F1- atoms to form LiF6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent IrF6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 35°. All Li–F bond lengths are 2.06 Å. Ir5+ is bonded to six equivalent F1- atoms to form IrF6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent LiF6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 35°. All Ir–F bond lengths are 1.92 Å. F1- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Li1+ and one Ir5+ atom.
