Materials Data on Cd(NO5)2 by Materials Project
Cd(NO3)2(O2)2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Fdd2 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of sixteen hydrogen peroxide molecules and eight Cd(NO3)2 clusters. In each Cd(NO3)2 cluster, Cd is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four O atoms. There are two shorter (2.26 Å) and two longer (2.30 Å) Cd–O bond lengths. N is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O atoms. There is one shorter (1.22 Å) and two longer (1.30 Å) N–O bond length. There are three inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N atom. In the second O site, O is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to one Cd and one N atom. In the third O site, O is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to one Cd and one N atom.
