Materials Data on Te(NO3)2 by Materials Project
Te(NO3)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is one-dimensional and consists of two Te(NO3)2 ribbons oriented in the (0, 1, 0) direction. N4+ is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to three O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.14 Å) and two longer (2.05 Å) N–O bond length. Te4+ is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent O2- atoms. All Te–O bond lengths are 1.89 Å. There are two inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one N4+ and one Te4+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N4+ atom.
