Materials Data on ThI2 by Materials Project
ThI2 is Molybdenite-like structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of four ThI2 sheets oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. Th is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent I atoms. All Th–I bond lengths are 3.22 Å. I is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Th atoms.
