Materials Data on PtC2(NO2)2 by Materials Project

Abstract

PtC2(NO2)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/m space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two 41349-15-9 molecules. Pt6+ is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent N3- and two equivalent O2- atoms. Both Pt–N bond lengths are 1.79 Å. Both Pt–O bond lengths are 2.10 Å. C4+ is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.23 Å) and one longer (1.31 Å) C–O bond length. N3- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Pt6+ atom. There are two inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Pt6+ and one C4+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C4+ atom.
