Materials Data on Tl2Pt3 by Materials Project
Pt3Tl2 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Pt+0.67- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pt+0.67- and five Tl1+ atoms. There are a spread of Pt–Pt bond distances ranging from 2.85–2.98 Å. There are a spread of Pt–Tl bond distances ranging from 2.84–3.02 Å. There are three inequivalent Tl1+ sites. In the first Tl1+ site, Tl1+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pt+0.67- atoms. In the second Tl1+ site, Tl1+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pt+0.67- atoms. In the third Tl1+ site, Tl1+ is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to nine equivalent Pt+0.67- atoms.
