Materials Data on Mn2AlB2 by Materials Project
Mn2AlB2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mn is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent B atoms. There are four shorter (2.14 Å) and two longer (2.17 Å) Mn–B bond lengths. Al is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to two equivalent B atoms. Both Al–B bond lengths are 2.28 Å. B is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Mn, one Al, and two equivalent B atoms. Both B–B bond lengths are 1.75 Å.
