Materials Data on BaBr3 by Materials Project
BaBr3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ba is bonded to twelve equivalent Br atoms to form a mixture of corner and face-sharing BaBr12 cuboctahedra. There are six shorter (3.46 Å) and six longer (3.68 Å) Ba–Br bond lengths. Br is bonded in a see-saw-like geometry to four equivalent Ba atoms.
