Materials Data on Rb2CrCl4 by Materials Project
Rb2CrCl4 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Rb1+ is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Cl1- atoms. There are four shorter (3.14 Å) and four longer (3.50 Å) Rb–Cl bond lengths. Cr2+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Cl1- atoms. All Cr–Cl bond lengths are 2.95 Å. Cl1- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Rb1+ and two equivalent Cr2+ atoms.
