Materials Data on Th(BRh)4 by Materials Project
Th(RhB)4 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4_2/nmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Th is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent Rh and twelve equivalent B atoms. There are four shorter (3.03 Å) and eight longer (3.21 Å) Th–Rh bond lengths. There are eight shorter (3.07 Å) and four longer (3.21 Å) Th–B bond lengths. Rh is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Th and five equivalent B atoms. There are a spread of Rh–B bond distances ranging from 2.24–2.31 Å. B is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Th, five equivalent Rh, and one B atom. The B–B bond length is 1.79 Å.
