Materials Data on RbCuPdF5 by Materials Project
RbPdCuF5 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Rb1+ is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to eleven F1- atoms. There are a spread of Rb–F bond distances ranging from 2.87–3.34 Å. Pd2+ is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four F1- atoms. There are two shorter (1.99 Å) and two longer (2.01 Å) Pd–F bond lengths. Cu2+ is bonded to six F1- atoms to form corner-sharing CuF6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 42°. There are a spread of Cu–F bond distances ranging from 1.98–2.19 Å. There are three inequivalent F1- sites. In the first F1- site, F1- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Rb1+, one Pd2+, and one Cu2+ atom. In the second F1- site, F1- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Rb1+, one Pd2+, and one Cu2+ atom. In the third F1- site, F1- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to three equivalent Rb1+ and two equivalent Cu2+ atoms.
