Materials Data on CrN4Cl(O2F)2 by Materials Project
Cr(NF)2N2ClO4 is Iron carbide-derived structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I4_1md space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of eight ammonia molecules, four ClO4 clusters, and four Cr(NF)2 clusters. In each ClO4 cluster, there are two inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Cl1- atom. The O–Cl bond length is 1.49 Å. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Cl1- atom. The O–Cl bond length is 1.43 Å. Cl1- is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four O2- atoms. In each Cr(NF)2 cluster, Cr3+ is bonded in a distorted see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent N2+ and two equivalent F1- atoms. Both Cr–N bond lengths are 1.91 Å. Both Cr–F bond lengths are 1.79 Å. N2+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Cr3+ atom. F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Cr3+ atom.
