Materials Data on B by Materials Project
B crystallizes in the tetragonal P4_2/nnm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are five inequivalent B sites. In the first B site, B is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five B atoms. There is three shorter (1.75 Å) and two longer (1.77 Å) B–B bond length. In the second B site, B is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six B atoms. There are a spread of B–B bond distances ranging from 1.72–1.90 Å. In the third B site, B is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven B atoms. There are a spread of B–B bond distances ranging from 1.69–2.13 Å. In the fourth B site, B is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six B atoms. The B–B bond length is 1.68 Å. In the fifth B site, B is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent B atoms.
