Materials Data on FeTe3ClO7 by Materials Project
FeTe3O7Cl crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Fe3+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form edge-sharing FeO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Fe–O bond distances ranging from 1.88–2.04 Å. There are three inequivalent Te4+ sites. In the first Te4+ site, Te4+ is bonded in a distorted see-saw-like geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Te–O bond distances ranging from 1.92–2.13 Å. In the second Te4+ site, Te4+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four O2- and one Cl1- atom. There are a spread of Te–O bond distances ranging from 1.90–2.45 Å. The Te–Cl bond length is 3.10 Å. In the third Te4+ site, Te4+ is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three O2- and three equivalent Cl1- atoms. There are a spread of Te–O bond distances ranging from 1.89–1.96 Å. There are a spread of Te–Cl bond distances ranging from 3.08–3.33 Å. There are seven inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Fe3+ and one Te4+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Fe3+, one Te4+, and one Cl1- atom. The O–Cl bond length is 3.25 Å. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two Te4+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two Te4+ and one Cl1- atom. The O–Cl bond length is 3.28 Å. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Fe3+ and one Te4+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Fe3+ and two Te4+ atoms. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two Te4+ atoms. Cl1- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to four Te4+ and two O2- atoms.
