Abstract
YNi5Si3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Y3+ is bonded to six Si4- atoms to form distorted YSi6 pentagonal pyramids that share corners with twelve NiSi4 tetrahedra, edges with ten NiSi4 tetrahedra, and faces with two equivalent YSi6 pentagonal pyramids. There are a spread of Y–Si bond distances ranging from 2.92–2.95 Å. There are five inequivalent Ni+1.80+ sites. In the first Ni+1.80+ site, Ni+1.80+ is bonded to four Si4- atoms to form NiSi4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent YSi6 pentagonal pyramids, corners with eight NiSi4 tetrahedra, edges with three equivalent YSi6 pentagonal pyramids, and edges with four NiSi4 tetrahedra. There are one shorter (2.31 Å) and three longer (2.42 Å) Ni–Si bond lengths. In the second Ni+1.80+ site, Ni+1.80+ is bonded to four Si4- atoms to form NiSi4 tetrahedra that share corners with six equivalent YSi6 pentagonal pyramids, corners with eight NiSi4 tetrahedra, an edgeedge with one YSi6 pentagonal pyramid, and edges with four NiSi4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Ni–Si bond distances ranging from 2.26–2.32 Å. In the third Ni+1.80+ site, Ni+1.80+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five Si4- atoms. There are a spread of Ni–Si bond distances rangingmore »
