Materials Data on Na2Pt(ClO)6 by Materials Project
Na2Pt(OCl)6 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Na is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to three O and three Cl atoms. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.65–2.82 Å. There are a spread of Na–Cl bond distances ranging from 2.71–2.95 Å. Pt is bonded in an octahedral geometry to six Cl atoms. There are four shorter (2.35 Å) and two longer (2.36 Å) Pt–Cl bond lengths. There are three inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Na and one O atom. The O–O bond length is 1.23 Å. In the second O site, O is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Na and one O atom. The O–O bond length is 1.24 Å. In the third O site, O is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Na and one O atom. There are three inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Na and one Pt atom. In the second Cl site, Cl is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to one Na and one Pt atom. In the third Cl site, Cl is bonded in a water-like geometry to one Na and one Pt atom.
