Materials Data on CuHgO3 by Materials Project
CuHgO3 is (Cubic) Perovskite structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Cu is bonded to six equivalent O atoms to form CuO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent CuO6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent HgO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. All Cu–O bond lengths are 1.92 Å. Hg is bonded to twelve equivalent O atoms to form HgO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent HgO12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent HgO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight equivalent CuO6 octahedra. All Hg–O bond lengths are 2.71 Å. O is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Cu and four equivalent Hg atoms.
