Materials Data on SrLaCl5 by Materials Project
SrLaCl5 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Sr2+ is bonded to seven Cl1- atoms to form distorted SrCl7 pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with four equivalent LaCl6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent LaCl6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent SrCl7 pentagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 14–46°. There are a spread of Sr–Cl bond distances ranging from 2.86–3.29 Å. La3+ is bonded to six Cl1- atoms to form LaCl6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent LaCl6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent SrCl7 pentagonal bipyramids, and edges with two equivalent SrCl7 pentagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 42°. There are a spread of La–Cl bond distances ranging from 2.73–2.84 Å. There are five inequivalent Cl1- sites. In the first Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Sr2+ and one La3+ atom. In the second Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Sr2+ and two equivalent La3+ atoms. In the third Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a linear geometry to one Sr2+ and one La3+ atom. In the fourth Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Sr2+ and one La3+ atom. In the fifth Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Sr2+ and one La3+ atom.
