Abstract
SmNi4P2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnnm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Sm2+ sites. In the first Sm2+ site, Sm2+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six P3- atoms. There are a spread of Sm–P bond distances ranging from 2.89–2.94 Å. In the second Sm2+ site, Sm2+ is bonded to six P3- atoms to form SmP6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent NiP4 tetrahedra, edges with two equivalent SmP6 octahedra, and edges with four equivalent NiP4 tetrahedra. There are two shorter (2.86 Å) and four longer (2.91 Å) Sm–P bond lengths. There are six inequivalent Ni1+ sites. In the first Ni1+ site, Ni1+ is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three P3- atoms. There are one shorter (2.18 Å) and two longer (2.27 Å) Ni–P bond lengths. In the second Ni1+ site, Ni1+ is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two P3- atoms. There are one shorter (2.25 Å) and one longer (2.31 Å) Ni–P bond lengths. In the third Ni1+ site, Ni1+ is bonded in a water-like geometry to two equivalent P3- atoms. Both Ni–P bond lengths are 2.30 Å. In the fourth Ni1+ site, Ni1+ is bonded to fourmore »
