Materials Data on Zr2VRe3 by Materials Project
Zr2VRe3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Zr is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Zr, three equivalent V, and nine equivalent Re atoms. There are one shorter (3.20 Å) and three longer (3.26 Å) Zr–Zr bond lengths. All Zr–V bond lengths are 3.12 Å. There are three shorter (3.08 Å) and six longer (3.11 Å) Zr–Re bond lengths. V is bonded to six equivalent Zr and six equivalent Re atoms to form VZr6Re6 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent ReZr6V2Re4 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent VZr6Re6 cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent VZr6Re6 cuboctahedra, and faces with eighteen equivalent ReZr6V2Re4 cuboctahedra. All V–Re bond lengths are 2.64 Å. Re is bonded to six equivalent Zr, two equivalent V, and four equivalent Re atoms to form distorted ReZr6V2Re4 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent VZr6Re6 cuboctahedra, corners with fourteen equivalent ReZr6V2Re4 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent ReZr6V2Re4 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent VZr6Re6 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent ReZr6V2Re4 cuboctahedra. There are two shorter (2.63 Å) and two longer (2.69 Å) Re–Re bond lengths.
