Materials Data on ScSiRh by Materials Project
ScRhSi crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Sc is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Rh and five equivalent Si atoms. There are a spread of Sc–Rh bond distances ranging from 2.89–3.12 Å. There are two shorter (2.83 Å) and three longer (2.86 Å) Sc–Si bond lengths. Rh is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Sc and four equivalent Si atoms. There are three shorter (2.45 Å) and one longer (2.49 Å) Rh–Si bond lengths. Si is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Sc and four equivalent Rh atoms.
