Title: Materials Data on MgBi5 by Materials Project

Abstract

MgBi5 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Amm2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to ten Bi atoms. There are a spread of Mg–Bi bond distances ranging from 3.19–3.56 Å. There are five inequivalent Bi sites. In the first Bi site, Bi is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Mg and six Bi atoms. There are a spread of Bi–Bi bond distances ranging from 3.21–3.49 Å. In the second Bi site, Bi is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent Mg and four Bi atoms. Both Bi–Bi bond lengths are 3.42 Å. In the third Bi site, Bi is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to ten Bi atoms. There are two shorter (3.43 Å) and four longer (3.66 Å) Bi–Bi bond lengths. In the fourth Bi site, Bi is bonded in a distorted L-shaped geometry to two equivalent Mg and six Bi atoms. In the fifth Bi site, Bi is bonded in a distorted L-shaped geometry to two equivalent Mg and two equivalent Bi atoms.
