Materials Data on PRu2 by Materials Project
Ru2P is Cotunnite structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ru sites. In the first Ru site, Ru is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent P atoms. There are a spread of Ru–P bond distances ranging from 2.28–2.44 Å. In the second Ru site, Ru is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to five equivalent P atoms. There are a spread of Ru–P bond distances ranging from 2.31–2.91 Å. P is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine Ru atoms.
