Title: Materials Data on KHg3 by Materials Project

Abstract

KHg3 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. K is bonded to twelve Hg atoms to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing KHg12 cuboctahedra. There are eight shorter (3.53 Å) and four longer (3.60 Å) K–Hg bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Hg sites. In the first Hg site, Hg is bonded to four equivalent K atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing HgK4 tetrahedra. In the second Hg site, Hg is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent K atoms.
