Materials Data on KHgBr3O by Materials Project
Abstract
KHgOBr3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmc2_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. K is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent O and five Br atoms. Both K–O bond lengths are 2.63 Å. There are a spread of K–Br bond distances ranging from 3.50–3.66 Å. Hg is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four Br atoms. There are two shorter (2.51 Å) and two longer (3.16 Å) Hg–Br bond lengths. O is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent K and one Br atom. The O–Br bond length is 1.79 Å. There are three inequivalent Br sites. In the first Br site, Br is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two equivalent K and one Hg atom. In the second Br site, Br is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to three equivalent K and one Hg atom. In the third Br site, Br is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two equivalent Hg and one O atom.
