Materials Data on Re3Pb by Materials Project
Re3Pb is alpha bismuth trifluoride structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Re sites. In the first Re site, Re is bonded to four equivalent Re and four equivalent Pb atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, face, and corner-sharing ReRe4Pb4 tetrahedra. All Re–Re bond lengths are 2.80 Å. All Re–Pb bond lengths are 2.80 Å. In the second Re site, Re is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Re and six equivalent Pb atoms. All Re–Pb bond lengths are 3.24 Å. Pb is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to fourteen Re atoms.
