Materials Data on AsXeF7 by Materials Project
XeAsF7 is alpha Niobium phosphide-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four XeAsF7 clusters. Xe is bonded in a linear geometry to two F atoms. There are one shorter (2.00 Å) and one longer (2.22 Å) Xe–F bond lengths. As is bonded in an octahedral geometry to six F atoms. There are a spread of As–F bond distances ranging from 1.74–1.97 Å. There are seven inequivalent F sites. In the first F site, F is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one As atom. In the second F site, F is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Xe atom. In the third F site, F is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Xe and one As atom. In the fourth F site, F is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one As atom. In the fifth F site, F is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one As atom. In the sixth F site, F is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one As atom. In the seventh F site, F is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one As atom.
