Materials Data on Sn5P6O25 by Materials Project
Sn5P6O25 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Sn4+ sites. In the first Sn4+ site, Sn4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form SnO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent PO4 tetrahedra. There are three shorter (2.04 Å) and three longer (2.09 Å) Sn–O bond lengths. In the second Sn4+ site, Sn4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SnO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one SnO4 tetrahedra and corners with three equivalent PO4 tetrahedra. There is one shorter (1.90 Å) and three longer (1.97 Å) Sn–O bond length. In the third Sn4+ site, Sn4+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form SnO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent PO4 tetrahedra. All Sn–O bond lengths are 2.06 Å. P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three SnO6 octahedra and a cornercorner with one SnO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 28–53°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.52–1.59 Å. There are five inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Sn4+ and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Sn4+ and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Sn4+ and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Sn4+ and one P5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Sn4+ atoms.
