Title: Materials Data on Rb2AlHgCl6 by Materials Project

Abstract

Rb2HgAlCl6 crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Rb1+ is bonded to twelve equivalent Cl1- atoms to form RbCl12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent RbCl12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent RbCl12 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent HgCl6 octahedra, and faces with four equivalent AlCl6 octahedra. All Rb–Cl bond lengths are 3.73 Å. Hg1+ is bonded to six equivalent Cl1- atoms to form HgCl6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent AlCl6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent RbCl12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. All Hg–Cl bond lengths are 2.91 Å. Al3+ is bonded to six equivalent Cl1- atoms to form AlCl6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent HgCl6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent RbCl12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. All Al–Cl bond lengths are 2.36 Å. Cl1- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Rb1+, one Hg1+, and one Al3+ atom.
