Materials Data on Rb(PIr)2 by Materials Project
Rb(IrP)2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Rb is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent P atoms. All Rb–P bond lengths are 3.56 Å. Ir is bonded to four equivalent P atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing IrP4 tetrahedra. All Ir–P bond lengths are 2.36 Å. P is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Rb and four equivalent Ir atoms.
