Title: Materials Data on K2Hg6S7 by Materials Project

Abstract

K2Hg6S7 crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent K1+ sites. In the first K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven S2- atoms. There are a spread of K–S bond distances ranging from 3.38–3.72 Å. In the second K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven S2- atoms. There are a spread of K–S bond distances ranging from 3.38–3.72 Å. In the third K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven S2- atoms. There are a spread of K–S bond distances ranging from 3.38–3.72 Å. There are three inequivalent Hg2+ sites. In the first Hg2+ site, Hg2+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six S2- atoms. There are a spread of Hg–S bond distances ranging from 2.39–3.47 Å. In the second Hg2+ site, Hg2+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form corner-sharing HgS4 trigonal pyramids. There are a spread of Hg–S bond distances ranging from 2.52–2.79 Å. In the third Hg2+ site, Hg2+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form corner-sharing HgS4 trigonal pyramids. There are a spread of Hg–S bond distances ranging from 2.52–2.79 Å. There are seven inequivalentmore » S2- sites. In the first S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent K1+ and four Hg2+ atoms. There are one shorter (3.38 Å) and one longer (3.43 Å) S–K bond lengths. The S–Hg bond length is 3.47 Å. In the second S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent K1+ and four Hg2+ atoms. In the third S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent K1+ and four Hg2+ atoms. The S–Hg bond length is 2.52 Å. In the fourth S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent K1+ and four Hg2+ atoms. There are a spread of S–Hg bond distances ranging from 2.52–3.47 Å. In the fifth S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent K1+ and four Hg2+ atoms. In the sixth S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two K1+ and four equivalent Hg2+ atoms. There are two shorter (2.40 Å) and two longer (3.41 Å) S–Hg bond lengths. In the seventh S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent K1+ and four equivalent Hg2+ atoms.« less
