Abstract
Li6BH4BH4(H2)2 crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional and consists of two hydrogen molecules, one BH4 cluster, and one Li6BH4 framework. In the BH4 cluster, B3- is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four H atoms. All B–H bond lengths are 1.23 Å. There are four inequivalent H sites. In the first H site, H is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one B3- atom. In the second H site, H is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one B3- atom. In the third H site, H is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one B3- atom. In the fourth H site, H is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one B3- atom. In the Li6BH4 framework, there are six inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to two H atoms. There is one shorter (1.85 Å) and one longer (1.88 Å) Li–H bond length. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one B3- and two H atoms. The Li–B bond length is 2.27 Å. There is one shorter (1.81 Å) and one longer (1.97 Å) Li–H bond length. In themore »
