Materials Data on Rb2MgH8(CO5)2 by Materials Project
Rb2MgH8(CO5)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Rb1+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five O2- atoms. There are a spread of Rb–O bond distances ranging from 2.91–3.01 Å. Mg2+ is bonded in an octahedral geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Mg–O bond distances ranging from 2.08–2.16 Å. C4+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There is two shorter (1.30 Å) and one longer (1.31 Å) C–O bond length. There are four inequivalent H1+ sites. In the first H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.01 Å) and one longer (1.66 Å) H–O bond length. In the second H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to two O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.00 Å) and one longer (1.74 Å) H–O bond length. In the third H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.01 Å) and one longer (1.66 Å) H–O bond length. In the fourth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.02 Å) and one longer (1.60 Å) H–O bond length. There are five inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Rb1+, one Mg2+, and one C4+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one Rb1+, one C4+, and two H1+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to one Mg2+ and two H1+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Rb1+, one C4+, and two H1+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to one Rb1+, one Mg2+, and two H1+ atoms.
