Materials Data on Pu2W2C3 by Materials Project
Abstract
Pu2W2C3 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Pu4+ is bonded in a pentagonal planar geometry to five C4- atoms. There are two shorter (2.38 Å) and three longer (2.41 Å) Pu–C bond lengths. W2+ is bonded to four C4- atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing WC4 trigonal pyramids. There are a spread of W–C bond distances ranging from 2.11–2.17 Å. There are two inequivalent C4- sites. In the first C4- site, C4- is bonded to four equivalent Pu4+ and two equivalent W2+ atoms to form CPu4W2 octahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent CPu3W3 octahedra, edges with two equivalent CPu4W2 octahedra, and faces with two equivalent CPu3W3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 39–58°. In the second C4- site, C4- is bonded to three equivalent Pu4+ and three equivalent W2+ atoms to form CPu3W3 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent CPu4W2 octahedra, edges with six equivalent CPu3W3 octahedra, and a faceface with one CPu4W2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 39–58°.
