Materials Data on Rb2Zr(MoO4)3 by Materials Project
Rb2Zr(MoO4)3 crystallizes in the monoclinic Cc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Rb1+ sites. In the first Rb1+ site, Rb1+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine O2- atoms. There are a spread of Rb–O bond distances ranging from 3.04–3.50 Å. In the second Rb1+ site, Rb1+ is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to ten O2- atoms. There are a spread of Rb–O bond distances ranging from 3.14–3.53 Å. Zr4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form ZrO6 octahedra that share corners with six MoO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Zr–O bond distances ranging from 2.10–2.12 Å. There are three inequivalent Mo6+ sites. In the first Mo6+ site, Mo6+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form MoO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent ZrO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 35–39°. There are a spread of Mo–O bond distances ranging from 1.75–1.86 Å. In the second Mo6+ site, Mo6+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form MoO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent ZrO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 26–41°. There is two shorter (1.75 Å) and two longer (1.85 Å) Mo–O bond length. In the third Mo6+ site, Mo6+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form MoO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent ZrO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 22°. There are a spread of Mo–O bond distances ranging from 1.75–1.85 Å. There are twelve inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Rb1+, one Zr4+, and one Mo6+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to three Rb1+ and one Mo6+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two equivalent Rb1+ and one Mo6+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two Rb1+ and one Mo6+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to three Rb1+ and one Mo6+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Zr4+ and one Mo6+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Rb1+, one Zr4+, and one Mo6+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Rb1+, one Zr4+, and one Mo6+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to two Rb1+ and one Mo6+ atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Rb1+, one Zr4+, and one Mo6+ atom. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two equivalent Rb1+ and one Mo6+ atom. In the twelfth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Rb1+, one Zr4+, and one Mo6+ atom.
