Materials Data on CsO2 by Materials Project

CsO2 is Marcasite structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnnm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Cs is bonded to six equivalent O atoms to form CsO6 octahedra that share corners with eight equivalent CsO6 octahedra, corners with six equivalent OCs3O tetrahedra, and edges with two equivalent CsO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 77°. There are two shorter (3.08 Å) and four longer (3.10 Å) Cs–O bond lengths. O is bonded to three equivalent Cs and one O atom to form OCs3O tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent CsO6 octahedra, corners with thirteen equivalent OCs3O tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one OCs3O tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 65°. The O–O bond length is 1.36 Å.

Theoretical study of the 2A2-2B2 separation of the alkali superoxides

The computed 2A2-2B2 separations of the alkali superoxides are in good agreement with those deduced from electron-spin resonance spectra. The calculations definitively show that the ground state of CsO2 is 2A2. The larger than expected separation for CsO2, based on the trend from LiO2 to RbO2, is attributed primarily to the differential effects of core relaxation. The CsO2 dissociation energy is computed to be 42.7 kcal/mol, with an uncertainty conservatively estimated as +/- 4 kcal/mol.
