Materials Data on B7H10 by Materials Project
B4H7(BH)3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic P2_12_12_1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of twenty-four boranediylradical molecules and eight B4H7 clusters. In each B4H7 cluster, there are four inequivalent B sites. In the first B site, B is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three H atoms. There are a spread of B–H bond distances ranging from 1.19–1.35 Å. In the second B site, B is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to two H atoms. There is one shorter (1.19 Å) and one longer (1.32 Å) B–H bond length. In the third B site, B is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to two H atoms. There is one shorter (1.19 Å) and one longer (1.33 Å) B–H bond length. In the fourth B site, B is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three H atoms. There are a spread of B–H bond distances ranging from 1.19–1.35 Å. There are seven inequivalent H sites. In the first H site, H is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to two B atoms. In the second H site, H is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one B atom. In the third H site, H is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one B atom. In the fourth H site, H is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one B atom. In the fifth H site, H is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to two B atoms. In the sixth H site, H is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one B atom. In the seventh H site, H is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to two B atoms.
