Materials Data on ReH30Ru2(NCl)10 by Materials Project
ReCl6(RuN5H15Cl)2Cl2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two hexachlororhenium molecules, four hydrochloric acid molecules, and four RuN5H15Cl clusters. In each RuN5H15Cl cluster, Ru+3.50+ is bonded in an octahedral geometry to five N3- and one Cl1- atom. There are a spread of Ru–N bond distances ranging from 2.12–2.14 Å. The Ru–Cl bond length is 2.33 Å. There are three inequivalent N3- sites. In the first N3- site, N3- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Ru+3.50+ and three H1+ atoms. All N–H bond lengths are 1.03 Å. In the second N3- site, N3- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Ru+3.50+ and three H1+ atoms. All N–H bond lengths are 1.03 Å. In the third N3- site, N3- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Ru+3.50+ and three H1+ atoms. There is two shorter (1.03 Å) and one longer (1.04 Å) N–H bond length. There are eight inequivalent H1+ sites. In the first H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N3- atom. In the second H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N3- atom. In the third H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N3- atom. In the fourth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N3- atom. In the fifth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N3- atom. In the sixth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N3- atom. In the seventh H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N3- atom. In the eighth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N3- atom. Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ru+3.50+ atom.
