Abstract

Pr9Ga5S21 crystallizes in the trigonal R3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are six inequivalent Pr3+ sites. In the first Pr3+ site, Pr3+ is bonded to seven S2- atoms to form distorted PrS7 pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with three PrS7 pentagonal bipyramids, corners with two GaS4 tetrahedra, edges with two PrS7 pentagonal bipyramids, an edgeedge with one GaS4 tetrahedra, and a faceface with one GaS6 octahedra. There are a spread of Pr–S bond distances ranging from 2.89–3.01 Å. In the second Pr3+ site, Pr3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight S2- atoms. There are a spread of Pr–S bond distances ranging from 2.85–3.25 Å. In the third Pr3+ site, Pr3+ is bonded to seven S2- atoms to form distorted PrS7 pentagonal bipyramids that share a cornercorner with one GaS6 octahedra, corners with three PrS7 pentagonal bipyramids, corners with two GaS4 tetrahedra, an edgeedge with one PrS7 pentagonal bipyramid, and an edgeedge with one GaS4 tetrahedra.
