Materials Data on ZnOF by Materials Project
ZnOF is Hydrophilite-derived structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Zn is bonded to three equivalent O and three equivalent F atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing ZnO3F3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 55°. There are one shorter (2.01 Å) and two longer (2.02 Å) Zn–O bond lengths. There are one shorter (2.11 Å) and two longer (2.13 Å) Zn–F bond lengths. O is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent Zn atoms. F is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three equivalent Zn atoms.
