Materials Data on CdH6C(BrN)3 by Materials Project
CdBr3CN3H6 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. The structure is one-dimensional and consists of four guanidinium molecules and two CdBr3 ribbons oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. In each CdBr3 ribbon, Cd2+ is bonded to five Br1- atoms to form edge-sharing CdBr5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Cd–Br bond distances ranging from 2.63–2.93 Å. There are two inequivalent Br1- sites. In the first Br1- site, Br1- is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to two equivalent Cd2+ atoms. In the second Br1- site, Br1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Cd2+ atom.
