Materials Data on Pr(PdO2)2 by Materials Project
Pr(PdO2)2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4_1/a space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Pr4+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent O2- atoms. There are four shorter (2.46 Å) and four longer (2.55 Å) Pr–O bond lengths. Pd2+ is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent O2- atoms. There are two shorter (2.03 Å) and two longer (2.04 Å) Pd–O bond lengths. O2- is bonded to two equivalent Pr4+ and two equivalent Pd2+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing OPr2Pd2 tetrahedra.
