Materials Data on Na7Au5S6 by Materials Project
Abstract
Na7Au5S6 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbcn space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Na1+ sites. In the first Na1+ site, Na1+ is bonded to four equivalent Au1+ and four S2- atoms to form NaAu4S4 hexagonal bipyramids that share corners with four equivalent NaAu4S4 hexagonal bipyramids, edges with two equivalent NaAu3S4 pentagonal bipyramids, and faces with two equivalent NaAu3S4 pentagonal bipyramids. There are two shorter (3.18 Å) and two longer (3.23 Å) Na–Au bond lengths. There are two shorter (2.87 Å) and two longer (2.95 Å) Na–S bond lengths. In the second Na1+ site, Na1+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two Au1+ and four S2- atoms. There are one shorter (3.27 Å) and one longer (3.32 Å) Na–Au bond lengths. There are a spread of Na–S bond distances ranging from 2.80–2.97 Å. In the third Na1+ site, Na1+ is bonded to three Au1+ and four S2- atoms to form distorted NaAu3S4 pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with two equivalent SNa6Au pentagonal bipyramids, corners with three equivalent NaAu3S4 pentagonal bipyramids, an edgeedge with one NaAu4S4 hexagonal bipyramid, and a faceface with one NaAu4S4 hexagonal bipyramid. There are one shorter (3.13 Å) and two longer (3.25 Å) Na–Aumore »
