Materials Data on MnB2 by Materials Project
MnB2 is hexagonal omega structure structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mn is bonded to twelve equivalent B atoms to form a mixture of edge and face-sharing MnB12 cuboctahedra. All Mn–B bond lengths are 2.27 Å. B is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Mn and three equivalent B atoms. All B–B bond lengths are 1.73 Å.
