Materials Data on Nd(BOs)2 by Materials Project
Nd(OsB)2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Fddd space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Nd3+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Os+1.50- atoms. All Nd–Os bond lengths are 3.05 Å. Os+1.50- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Nd3+ and four equivalent B atoms. There are two shorter (2.10 Å) and two longer (2.18 Å) Os–B bond lengths. B is bonded to four equivalent Os+1.50- atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing BOs4 trigonal pyramids.
