Materials Data on H6AuN2ClO4 by Materials Project
AuN2H6ClO4 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four AuN2H6 clusters and four ClO4 clusters. In two of the AuN2H6 clusters, Au1+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent N1+ atoms. Both Au–N bond lengths are 2.08 Å. N1+ is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Au1+ and three H1+ atoms. All N–H bond lengths are 1.03 Å. There are three inequivalent H1+ sites. In the first H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N1+ atom. In the second H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N1+ atom. In the third H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N1+ atom. In two of the AuN2H6 clusters, Au1+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two N1+ atoms. Both Au–N bond lengths are 2.08 Å. There are two inequivalent N1+ sites. In the first N1+ site, N1+ is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Au1+ and three H1+ atoms. There is one shorter (1.02 Å) and two longer (1.03 Å) N–H bond length. In the second N1+ site, N1+ is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Au1+ and three H1+ atoms. There is two shorter (1.02 Å) and one longer (1.03 Å) N–H bond length. There are six inequivalent H1+ sites. In the first H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N1+ atom. In the second H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N1+ atom. In the third H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N1+ atom. In the fourth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N1+ atom. In the fifth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N1+ atom. In the sixth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N1+ atom. In each ClO4 cluster, there are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Cl1- atom. The O–Cl bond length is 1.46 Å. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Cl1- atom. The O–Cl bond length is 1.46 Å. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Cl1- atom. The O–Cl bond length is 1.46 Å. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Cl1- atom. The O–Cl bond length is 1.47 Å. Cl1- is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four O2- atoms.
