Abstract

P is Hittorf structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic P2/c space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of two P sheets oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. there are twenty-one inequivalent P sites. In the first P site, P is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three P atoms. There are a spread of P–P bond distances ranging from 2.21–2.23 Å. In the second P site, P is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three P atoms. There are one shorter (2.21 Å) and one longer (2.29 Å) P–P bond lengths. In the third P site, P is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three P atoms. There are two shorter (2.21 Å) and one longer (2.23 Å) P–P bond lengths. In the fourth P site, P is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three P atoms. There are one shorter (2.23 Å) and one longer (2.28 Å) P–P bond lengths. In the fifth P site, P is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three P atoms. There are two shorter (2.22 Å) and one longer (2.30 Å) P–P bond lengths. In the sixth P site, P is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three P atoms. There are one shorter (2.21 Å) and one longer (2.22 Å) P–P bond lengths. In the seventh P site, P is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three P atoms. There are two shorter (2.21 Å) and one longer (2.29 Å) P–P bond lengths. In the eighth P site, P is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three P atoms. There are one shorter (2.21 Å) and one longer (2.25 Å) P–P bond lengths. In the ninth P site, P is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three P atoms. The P–P bond length is 2.22 Å. In the tenth P site, P is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three P atoms. There are one shorter (2.21 Å) and one longer (2.22 Å) P–P bond lengths. In the eleventh P site, P is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three P atoms. The P–P bond length is 2.24 Å. In the twelfth P site, P is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three P atoms. The P–P bond length is 2.22 Å. In the thirteenth P site, P is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three P atoms. In the fourteenth P site, P is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three P atoms. There are a spread of P–P bond distances ranging from 2.21–2.24 Å. In the fifteenth P site, P is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three P atoms. The P–P bond length is 2.21 Å. In the sixteenth P site, P is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three P atoms. There are one shorter (2.21 Å) and one longer (2.24 Å) P–P bond lengths. In the seventeenth P site, P is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three P atoms. In the eighteenth P site, P is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three P atoms. In the nineteenth P site, P is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three P atoms. The P–P bond length is 2.30 Å. In the twentieth P site, P is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three P atoms. In the twenty-first P site, P is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three P atoms.
