Materials Data on Rb2MoBr6 by Materials Project
Rb2MoBr6 crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Rb1+ is bonded to twelve equivalent Br1- atoms to form RbBr12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent RbBr12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent RbBr12 cuboctahedra, and faces with four equivalent MoBr6 octahedra. All Rb–Br bond lengths are 3.80 Å. Mo4+ is bonded to six equivalent Br1- atoms to form MoBr6 octahedra that share faces with eight equivalent RbBr12 cuboctahedra. All Mo–Br bond lengths are 2.57 Å. Br1- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to four equivalent Rb1+ and one Mo4+ atom.
