Materials Data on P3(PbO3)4 by Materials Project

Pb4(PO4)3 crystallizes in the cubic I-43d space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Pb+2.50+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form distorted PbO6 pentagonal pyramids that share corners with six equivalent PO4 tetrahedra and edges with three equivalent PbO6 pentagonal pyramids. There are three shorter (2.42 Å) and three longer (2.69 Å) Pb–O bond lengths. P+4.67+ is bonded to four equivalent O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with eight equivalent PbO6 pentagonal pyramids. All P–O bond lengths are 1.56 Å. O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two equivalent Pb+2.50+ and one P+4.67+ atom.
