Materials Data on Ag5HgSbO6 by Materials Project
Ag5HgSbO6 crystallizes in the trigonal P-31c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ag1+ sites. In the first Ag1+ site, Ag1+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent O2- atoms. All Ag–O bond lengths are 2.31 Å. In the second Ag1+ site, Ag1+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent O2- atoms. Both Ag–O bond lengths are 2.14 Å. Hg2+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form distorted HgO6 octahedra that share edges with three equivalent SbO6 octahedra. All Hg–O bond lengths are 2.42 Å. Sb5+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form SbO6 octahedra that share edges with three equivalent HgO6 octahedra. All Sb–O bond lengths are 2.05 Å. O2- is bonded to two Ag1+, one Hg2+, and one Sb5+ atom to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing OAg2HgSb tetrahedra.
