Materials Data on Ca6Al7ClO16 by Materials Project
Ca6Al7O16Cl crystallizes in the tetragonal I-42d space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Ca2+ sites. In the first Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded to six O2- and one Cl1- atom to form distorted CaClO6 pentagonal bipyramids that share a cornercorner with one CaClO6 pentagonal bipyramid, corners with four AlO4 tetrahedra, and edges with three AlO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.40–2.60 Å. The Ca–Cl bond length is 2.77 Å. In the second Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a distorted hexagonal planar geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.37–2.45 Å. In the third Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a distorted hexagonal planar geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.40–2.49 Å. There are three inequivalent Al3+ sites. In the first Al3+ site, Al3+ is bonded to four equivalent O2- atoms to form AlO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent AlO4 tetrahedra and edges with two equivalent CaClO6 pentagonal bipyramids. All Al–O bond lengths are 1.76 Å. In the second Al3+ site, Al3+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form AlO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent CaClO6 pentagonal bipyramids and corners with four equivalent AlO4 tetrahedra. All Al–O bond lengths are 1.76 Å. In the third Al3+ site, Al3+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form AlO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one CaClO6 pentagonal bipyramid, corners with three AlO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one CaClO6 pentagonal bipyramid. There are a spread of Al–O bond distances ranging from 1.74–1.80 Å. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to two Ca2+ and two Al3+ atoms to form distorted OCa2Al2 trigonal pyramids that share corners with three equivalent OCa3Al tetrahedra, corners with two OCa2Al2 trigonal pyramids, an edgeedge with one OCa3Al tetrahedra, and edges with two OCa2Al2 trigonal pyramids. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to two Ca2+ and two Al3+ atoms to form distorted OCa2Al2 trigonal pyramids that share corners with three equivalent OCa3Al tetrahedra, corners with four OCa2Al2 trigonal pyramids, an edgeedge with one OCa3Al tetrahedra, and edges with two OCa2Al2 trigonal pyramids. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two Ca2+ and two Al3+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Ca2+ and one Al3+ atom to form distorted OCa3Al tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent OCa3Al tetrahedra, corners with six OCa2Al2 trigonal pyramids, and edges with two OCa2Al2 trigonal pyramids. Cl1- is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Ca2+ atoms.
