Materials Data on CaPtF6 by Materials Project
CaPtF6 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ca2+ is bonded to six equivalent F1- atoms to form CaF6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent PtF6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 40°. All Ca–F bond lengths are 2.29 Å. Pt4+ is bonded to six equivalent F1- atoms to form PtF6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent CaF6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 40°. All Pt–F bond lengths are 1.97 Å. F1- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ca2+ and one Pt4+ atom.
