Title: Materials Data on K29NaHg48 by Materials Project

Abstract

NaK29Hg48 crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3n space group. The structure is three-dimensional and consists of six potassium molecules and one K26NaHg48 framework. In the K26NaHg48 framework, there are four inequivalent K sites. In the first K site, K is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two equivalent K and ten Hg atoms. Both K–K bond lengths are 3.89 Å. There are a spread of K–Hg bond distances ranging from 3.58–3.91 Å. In the second K site, K is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four K and twelve Hg atoms. The K–K bond length is 3.77 Å. There are a spread of K–Hg bond distances ranging from 3.70–3.97 Å. In the third K site, K is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve Hg atoms. There are four shorter (3.55 Å) and eight longer (3.70 Å) K–Hg bond lengths. In the fourth K site, K is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Hg atoms. All K–Hg bond lengths are 3.68 Å. Na is bonded in a cuboctahedral geometry to twelve equivalent Hg atoms. All Na–Hg bond lengths are 3.18 Å. There are three inequivalent Hg sites. In the first Hg site, Hg is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometrymore » to six K and five Hg atoms. There are a spread of Hg–Hg bond distances ranging from 3.01–3.38 Å. In the second Hg site, Hg is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to five K, one Na, and two Hg atoms. The Hg–Hg bond length is 3.19 Å. In the third Hg site, Hg is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to six K and five Hg atoms. There are a spread of Hg–Hg bond distances ranging from 3.26–3.35 Å.« less
