Materials Data on Ti(CrS2)2 by Materials Project
Ti(CrS2)2 crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ti4+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven S2- atoms. There are a spread of Ti–S bond distances ranging from 2.36–2.84 Å. There are two inequivalent Cr2+ sites. In the first Cr2+ site, Cr2+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing CrS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 12–20°. There are a spread of Cr–S bond distances ranging from 2.37–2.53 Å. In the second Cr2+ site, Cr2+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing CrS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 14–20°. There are a spread of Cr–S bond distances ranging from 2.38–2.57 Å. There are four inequivalent S2- sites. In the first S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ti4+ and two equivalent Cr2+ atoms. In the second S2- site, S2- is bonded to two equivalent Ti4+ and four Cr2+ atoms to form distorted corner-sharing STi2Cr4 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 12–42°. In the third S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ti4+ and two equivalent Cr2+ atoms. In the fourth S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one Ti4+ and four Cr2+ atoms.
