Materials Data on CoReB by Materials Project
ReCoB crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Re is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five equivalent B atoms. There are a spread of Re–B bond distances ranging from 2.35–2.40 Å. Co is bonded to four equivalent B atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing CoB4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Co–B bond distances ranging from 2.08–2.19 Å. B is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Re and four equivalent Co atoms.
