Materials Data on AsF3 by Materials Project
AsF3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pna2_1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four trifluoroarsine molecules. As3+ is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three F1- atoms. There is one shorter (1.77 Å) and two longer (1.78 Å) As–F bond length. There are three inequivalent F1- sites. In the first F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one As3+ atom. In the second F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one As3+ atom. In the third F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one As3+ atom.
