Materials Data on V3P2O11 by Materials Project
V3P2O11 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent V4+ sites. In the first V4+ site, V4+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form VO5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with two equivalent PO4 tetrahedra and a cornercorner with one VO5 trigonal bipyramid. There are a spread of V–O bond distances ranging from 1.73–2.08 Å. In the second V4+ site, V4+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form VO5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with four PO4 tetrahedra and a cornercorner with one VO5 trigonal bipyramid. There are a spread of V–O bond distances ranging from 1.86–1.98 Å. In the third V4+ site, V4+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five O2- atoms. There are a spread of V–O bond distances ranging from 1.71–2.02 Å. There are two inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four VO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.53–1.57 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent VO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.53–1.57 Å. There are eleven inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one V4+ and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one V4+ and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one V4+ and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one V4+ and one P5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one V4+ and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one V4+ and one P5+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one V4+ and one P5+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one V4+ and one P5+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three V4+ atoms. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a water-like geometry to two V4+ atoms. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two V4+ atoms.
