Materials Data on Nd3Ta(ClO2)3 by Materials Project

Nd3Ta(O2Cl)3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Nd is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent O and four equivalent Cl atoms. There are a spread of Nd–O bond distances ranging from 2.41–2.66 Å. There are three shorter (3.01 Å) and one longer (3.07 Å) Nd–Cl bond lengths. Ta is bonded in a distorted pentagonal pyramidal geometry to six equivalent O atoms. All Ta–O bond lengths are 2.00 Å. O is bonded to three equivalent Nd and one Ta atom to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing ONd3Ta tetrahedra. Cl is bonded in a see-saw-like geometry to four equivalent Nd atoms.
