Title: Materials Data on MoCl3 by Materials Project

Abstract

MoCl3 is Aluminum trichloride-like structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of four MoCl3 sheets oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. Mo3+ is bonded to six Cl1- atoms to form edge-sharing MoCl6 octahedra. There are a spread of Mo–Cl bond distances ranging from 2.46–2.49 Å. There are three inequivalent Cl1- sites. In the first Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to two equivalent Mo3+ atoms. In the second Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to two equivalent Mo3+ atoms. In the third Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to two equivalent Mo3+ atoms.
