Materials Data on K(AsRh)2 by Materials Project
K(RhAs)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. K is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent As atoms. There are a spread of K–As bond distances ranging from 3.42–3.49 Å. Rh is bonded to four equivalent As atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing RhAs4 tetrahedra. There are two shorter (2.45 Å) and two longer (2.46 Å) Rh–As bond lengths. As is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent K and four equivalent Rh atoms.
