Materials Data on SbH4NCl6 by Materials Project
NH4SbCl6 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four ammonium molecules and four SbCl6 clusters. In each SbCl6 cluster, Sb5+ is bonded in an octahedral geometry to six Cl1- atoms. There are two shorter (2.41 Å) and four longer (2.42 Å) Sb–Cl bond lengths. There are three inequivalent Cl1- sites. In the first Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb5+ atom. In the second Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb5+ atom. In the third Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb5+ atom.
