Materials Data on RbB5O8 by Materials Project
RbB5O8 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbca space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Rb1+ is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to ten O2- atoms. There are a spread of Rb–O bond distances ranging from 2.98–3.45 Å. There are five inequivalent B3+ sites. In the first B3+ site, B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.36 Å) and two longer (1.39 Å) B–O bond length. In the second B3+ site, B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.35–1.40 Å. In the third B3+ site, B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.36–1.40 Å. In the fourth B3+ site, B3+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.47–1.49 Å. In the fifth B3+ site, B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.36–1.40 Å. There are eight inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Rb1+ and two B3+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent Rb1+ and two B3+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent Rb1+ and two B3+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Rb1+ and two B3+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Rb1+ and two B3+ atoms. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two B3+ atoms. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Rb1+ and two B3+ atoms. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent Rb1+ and two B3+ atoms.
