Materials Data on FeH8SO8 by Materials Project
FeH8SO8 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is one-dimensional and consists of two FeH8SO8 ribbons oriented in the (1, 0, 1) direction. Fe2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form FeO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent SO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Fe–O bond distances ranging from 2.12–2.17 Å. There are eight inequivalent H1+ sites. In the first H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.99 Å. In the second H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.98 Å. In the third H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.99 Å. In the fourth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.98 Å. In the fifth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.98 Å. In the sixth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.98 Å. In the seventh H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to two O2- atoms. There is one shorter (0.99 Å) and one longer (1.75 Å) H–O bond length. In the eighth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.99 Å. S6+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent FeO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 49–51°. There are a spread of S–O bond distances ranging from 1.48–1.50 Å. There are eight inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to one Fe2+ and two H1+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to one Fe2+ and two H1+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Fe2+, one H1+, and one S6+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Fe2+ and one S6+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to one Fe2+ and two H1+ atoms. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one S6+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one S6+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to one Fe2+ and two H1+ atoms.
