Materials Data on ScIr3C by Materials Project
ScIr3C is (Cubic) Perovskite structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional and consists of one methane molecule and one ScIr3 framework. In the ScIr3 framework, Sc is bonded to six Ir atoms to form corner-sharing ScIr6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. There are four shorter (2.34 Å) and two longer (2.35 Å) Sc–Ir bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Ir sites. In the first Ir site, Ir is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Sc atoms. In the second Ir site, Ir is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Sc atoms.
