Materials Data on MgH20C4Br2(N4O3)2 by Materials Project
MgC4H4(N2O3)2(NH2)4(H2)2(H2Br)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of eight ammonia molecules, four hydrogen molecules, four molecular hydrogen;hydrobromide molecules, and two MgC4H4(N2O3)2 clusters. In each MgC4H4(N2O3)2 cluster, Mg2+ is bonded in an octahedral geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Mg–O bond distances ranging from 1.97–2.23 Å. There are two inequivalent C4+ sites. In the first C4+ site, C4+ is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two N3- and one O2- atom. Both C–N bond lengths are 1.33 Å. The C–O bond length is 1.26 Å. In the second C4+ site, C4+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The C–O bond length is 1.17 Å. There are two inequivalent N3- sites. In the first N3- site, N3- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one C4+ atom. In the second N3- site, N3- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one C4+ atom. There are two 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 0.98 Å. There are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Mg2+ and one C4+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Mg2+ and one C4+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Mg2+ and two H1+ atoms.
