Materials Data on MnOF by Materials Project
MnOF crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mn3+ is bonded to three equivalent O2- and three equivalent F1- atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing MnO3F3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 21–30°. There is one shorter (1.92 Å) and two longer (1.93 Å) Mn–O bond length. There are a spread of Mn–F bond distances ranging from 1.97–2.31 Å. O2- is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three equivalent Mn3+ atoms. F1- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Mn3+ atoms.
