Materials Data on CsHSO4 by Materials Project
CsHSO4 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Cs1+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine O2- atoms. There are a spread of Cs–O bond distances ranging from 3.19–3.42 Å. H1+ is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to two O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.02 Å) and one longer (1.64 Å) H–O bond length. S6+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of S–O bond distances ranging from 1.46–1.61 Å. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to one Cs1+, one H1+, and one S6+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent Cs1+, one H1+, and one S6+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to three equivalent Cs1+ and one S6+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to three equivalent Cs1+ and one S6+ atom.
