Abstract
V6Si5 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Immm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent V2+ sites. In the first V2+ site, V2+ is bonded to seven Si+2.40- atoms to form distorted VSi7 pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with two equivalent VSi7 pentagonal bipyramids, corners with six equivalent VSi6 pentagonal pyramids, an edgeedge with one VSi7 pentagonal bipyramid, and faces with four equivalent VSi6 pentagonal pyramids. There are a spread of V–Si bond distances ranging from 2.55–2.70 Å. In the second V2+ site, V2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to two equivalent V2+ and six Si+2.40- atoms. There are one shorter (2.44 Å) and one longer (2.50 Å) V–V bond lengths. There are four shorter (2.53 Å) and two longer (2.77 Å) V–Si bond lengths. In the third V2+ site, V2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to two equivalent V2+ and six Si+2.40- atoms. Both V–V bond lengths are 2.47 Å. There are a spread of V–Si bond distances ranging from 2.43–2.66 Å. In the fourth V2+ site, V2+ is bonded to six Si+2.40- atoms to form distorted VSi6 pentagonal pyramids that share corners with three equivalent VSi7 pentagonal bipyramids, corners with three equivalent VSi6 pentagonal pyramids,more »
