Title: Materials Data on KHgC2 by Materials Project

Abstract

KC2Hg crystallizes in the orthorhombic Fddd space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of four Hg sheets oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction and four KC2 sheets oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. In each Hg sheet, Hg1+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent Hg1+ atoms. There are one shorter (2.96 Å) and two longer (3.00 Å) Hg–Hg bond lengths. In each KC2 sheet, K1+ is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four equivalent C1- atoms. All K–C bond lengths are 3.21 Å. C1- is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to two equivalent K1+ and two equivalent C1- atoms. There is one shorter (1.29 Å) and one longer (1.30 Å) C–C bond length.
