Materials Data on Fe2S3(NO6)2 by Materials Project
Fe2(SO4)3N2 crystallizes in the cubic P2_13 space group. The structure is three-dimensional and consists of eight ammonia molecules and one Fe2(SO4)3 framework. In the Fe2(SO4)3 framework, there are two inequivalent Fe3+ sites. In the first Fe3+ site, Fe3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form FeO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent SO4 tetrahedra. All Fe–O bond lengths are 2.02 Å. In the second Fe3+ site, Fe3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form FeO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent SO4 tetrahedra. There are three shorter (2.02 Å) and three longer (2.03 Å) Fe–O bond lengths. S+3.33+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four FeO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 11–47°. There are a spread of S–O bond distances ranging from 1.47–1.50 Å. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Fe3+ and one S+3.33+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Fe3+ and one S+3.33+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a linear geometry to one Fe3+ and one S+3.33+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Fe3+ and one S+3.33+ atom.
