Materials Data on Sr3Pt2 by Materials Project
Sr3Pt2 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Sr sites. In the first Sr site, Sr is bonded in an octahedral geometry to six equivalent Pt atoms. All Sr–Pt bond lengths are 3.24 Å. In the second Sr site, Sr is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pt atoms. There are three shorter (3.08 Å) and three longer (3.24 Å) Sr–Pt bond lengths. In the third Sr site, Sr is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Pt atoms. There are a spread of Sr–Pt bond distances ranging from 3.15–3.67 Å. Pt is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to eight Sr and one Pt atom. The Pt–Pt bond length is 2.92 Å.
