Title: Materials Data on BaLaCl5 by Materials Project

Abstract

BaLaCl5 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ba2+ sites. In the first Ba2+ site, Ba2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight Cl1- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–Cl bond distances ranging from 3.19–3.59 Å. In the second Ba2+ site, Ba2+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine Cl1- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–Cl bond distances ranging from 3.20–3.61 Å. There are two inequivalent La3+ sites. In the first La3+ site, La3+ is bonded to six Cl1- atoms to form corner-sharing LaCl6 octahedra. There are a spread of La–Cl bond distances ranging from 2.71–2.86 Å. In the second La3+ site, La3+ is bonded to six Cl1- atoms to form distorted corner-sharing LaCl6 pentagonal pyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 43–53°. There are a spread of La–Cl bond distances ranging from 2.75–2.97 Å. There are ten inequivalent Cl1- sites. In the first Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to one Ba2+ and one La3+ atom. In the second Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two Ba2+ and one La3+ atom. In the third Cl1- site, Cl1- ismore » bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two Ba2+ and one La3+ atom. In the fourth Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two Ba2+ and one La3+ atom. In the fifth Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to one Ba2+ and one La3+ atom. In the sixth Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Ba2+ and two La3+ atoms. In the seventh Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to three Ba2+ and one La3+ atom. In the eighth Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two Ba2+ and one La3+ atom. In the ninth Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two Ba2+ and one La3+ atom. In the tenth Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Ba2+ and two La3+ atoms.« less
