Materials Data on Mg5H10(C2O9)2 by Materials Project
Mg5H10(C2O9)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Mg2+ sites. In the first Mg2+ site, Mg2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing MgO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 59–67°. There are a spread of Mg–O bond distances ranging from 2.06–2.20 Å. In the second Mg2+ site, Mg2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing MgO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 60–67°. There are a spread of Mg–O bond distances ranging from 2.06–2.27 Å. In the third Mg2+ site, Mg2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form corner-sharing MgO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 59–60°. There are a spread of Mg–O bond distances ranging from 2.06–2.09 Å. There are two inequivalent C4+ sites. In the first C4+ site, C4+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.29 Å) and two longer (1.30 Å) C–O bond length. In the second C4+ site, C4+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of C–O bond distances ranging from 1.28–1.31 Å. There are five 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 0.98 Å. In the second H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 1.00 Å. In the third H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.98 Å. In the fourth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.01 Å) and one longer (1.63 Å) H–O bond length. In the fifth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.99 Å. There are nine inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Mg2+ and one C4+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to two Mg2+ and one C4+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to three Mg2+ and one H1+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Mg2+ and one C4+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to one Mg2+ and two H1+ atoms. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Mg2+ and two H1+ atoms. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Mg2+ and one C4+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Mg2+, one C4+, and one H1+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two Mg2+ and one C4+ atom.
