Materials Data on BIr by Materials Project
IrB is Tungsten Carbide structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P-6m2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ir3+ is bonded to six equivalent B3- atoms to form a mixture of distorted face, edge, and corner-sharing IrB6 pentagonal pyramids. All Ir–B bond lengths are 2.22 Å. B3- is bonded to six equivalent Ir3+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted face, edge, and corner-sharing BIr6 pentagonal pyramids.
