Materials Data on Ru3F by Materials Project
Ru3F is alpha bismuth trifluoride structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ru sites. In the first Ru site, Ru is bonded to four equivalent Ru and four equivalent F atoms to form a mixture of face, edge, and corner-sharing RuRu4F4 tetrahedra. All Ru–Ru bond lengths are 2.58 Å. All Ru–F bond lengths are 2.58 Å. In the second Ru site, Ru is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Ru atoms. F is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Ru atoms.
