Materials Data on Mg(FeS2)4 by Materials Project
Abstract
Mg(FeS2)4 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg2+ is bonded to six equivalent S+1.50- atoms to form MgS6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent FeS6 octahedra and edges with six equivalent FeS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 9°. All Mg–S bond lengths are 2.59 Å. There are two inequivalent Fe+2.50+ sites. In the first Fe+2.50+ site, Fe+2.50+ is bonded to six S+1.50- atoms to form FeS6 octahedra that share edges with two equivalent MgS6 octahedra and edges with six FeS6 octahedra. There are four shorter (2.28 Å) and two longer (2.29 Å) Fe–S bond lengths. In the second Fe+2.50+ site, Fe+2.50+ is bonded to six equivalent S+1.50- atoms to form FeS6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent MgS6 octahedra and edges with six equivalent FeS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 9°. All Fe–S bond lengths are 2.28 Å. There are two inequivalent S+1.50- sites. In the first S+1.50- site, S+1.50- is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one Mg2+ and three Fe+2.50+ atoms. In the second S+1.50- site, S+1.50- is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three equivalent Fe+2.50+ atoms.
