Materials Data on SrNi2P2(H2O5)2 by Materials Project
SrNi2P2(H2O5)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Sr2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Sr–O bond distances ranging from 2.62–2.82 Å. Ni2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form NiO6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent PO4 tetrahedra and edges with two equivalent NiO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Ni–O bond distances ranging from 2.05–2.10 Å. P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent NiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 50–53°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.54–1.59 Å. There are two inequivalent H1+ sites. In the first H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.06 Å) and one longer (1.44 Å) H–O bond length. In the second H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.98 Å. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Sr2+, one P5+, and one H1+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Sr2+, one Ni2+, and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one Sr2+, two equivalent Ni2+, and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to two equivalent Ni2+ and two H1+ atoms.
