Materials Data on NdC3S3(O2F)9 by Materials Project
NdO9(CF3)3(SO3)3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/m space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of six fluoroform molecules, six sulfur trioxide molecules, and two NdO9 clusters. In each NdO9 cluster, Nd is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent O atoms. All Nd–O bond lengths are 2.43 Å. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to one Nd and one O atom. The O–O bond length is 1.34 Å. In the second O site, O is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent O atoms.
