Materials Data on In2Pt3 by Materials Project
Pt3In2 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Pt2- sites. In the first Pt2- site, Pt2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to six Pt2- and five In3+ atoms. There are a spread of Pt–Pt bond distances ranging from 2.82–2.98 Å. There are a spread of Pt–In bond distances ranging from 2.77–2.96 Å. In the second Pt2- site, Pt2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pt2- and five In3+ atoms. There are a spread of Pt–In bond distances ranging from 2.77–2.96 Å. There are three inequivalent In3+ sites. In the first In3+ site, In3+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six Pt2- atoms. In the second In3+ site, In3+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six Pt2- atoms. In the third In3+ site, In3+ is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to nine Pt2- atoms.
