Materials Data on SnPClO2 by Materials Project
SnPO2Cl crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is one-dimensional and consists of four SnPO2Cl ribbons oriented in the (1, 0, 0) direction. Sn2+ is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent O2- and one Cl1- atom. Both Sn–O bond lengths are 2.22 Å. The Sn–Cl bond length is 2.56 Å. P3+ is bonded in a water-like geometry to two equivalent O2- atoms. Both P–O bond lengths are 1.53 Å. O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Sn2+ and one P3+ atom. Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sn2+ atom.
