Materials Data on Na2BeCl4 by Materials Project
Abstract
Na2BeCl4 is Spinel-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Na1+ sites. In the first Na1+ site, Na1+ is bonded to six Cl1- atoms to form NaCl6 octahedra that share corners with eight NaCl6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent BeCl4 tetrahedra, edges with two equivalent NaCl6 octahedra, and an edgeedge with one BeCl4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 53–67°. There are a spread of Na–Cl bond distances ranging from 2.78–2.91 Å. In the second Na1+ site, Na1+ is bonded to six Cl1- atoms to form NaCl6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent NaCl6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent BeCl4 tetrahedra, edges with four NaCl6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent BeCl4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 59–67°. There are a spread of Na–Cl bond distances ranging from 2.76–2.87 Å. Be2+ is bonded to four Cl1- atoms to form BeCl4 tetrahedra that share corners with six NaCl6 octahedra and edges with three NaCl6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 49–58°. There are a spread of Be–Cl bond distances ranging from 2.03–2.06 Å. There are three inequivalent Cl1- sites. In the first Cl1-more »
