Title: Materials Data on Mg(AlB14)2 by Materials Project

Abstract

Mg(AlB14)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to fourteen B atoms. There are a spread of Mg–B bond distances ranging from 2.30–2.78 Å. There are two inequivalent Al sites. In the first Al site, Al is bonded in a distorted cuboctahedral geometry to twelve B atoms. There are a spread of Al–B bond distances ranging from 2.04–2.41 Å. In the second Al site, Al is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to ten B atoms. There are a spread of Al–B bond distances ranging from 2.13–2.74 Å. There are fourteen inequivalent B sites. In the first B site, B is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to one Al and six B atoms. There are a spread of B–B bond distances ranging from 1.77–1.82 Å. In the second B site, B is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to one Al and six B atoms. There are a spread of B–B bond distances ranging from 1.75–1.82 Å. In the third B site, B is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six B atoms. There are a spread of B–B bond distances ranging from 1.69–1.81 Å. In the fourth B site, Bmore » is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six B atoms. There are a spread of B–B bond distances ranging from 1.71–1.80 Å. In the fifth B site, B is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to one Mg, one Al, and six B atoms. There are a spread of B–B bond distances ranging from 1.78–1.82 Å. In the sixth B site, B is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to one Al and six B atoms. There are a spread of B–B bond distances ranging from 1.73–1.85 Å. In the seventh B site, B is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to two Al and six B atoms. There are a spread of B–B bond distances ranging from 1.76–1.83 Å. In the eighth B site, B is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to one Mg and six B atoms. There are a spread of B–B bond distances ranging from 1.72–1.84 Å. In the ninth B site, B is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to one Mg, one Al, and six B atoms. There is one shorter (1.77 Å) and one longer (1.82 Å) B–B bond length. In the tenth B site, B is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to one Mg and six B atoms. There is one shorter (1.78 Å) and one longer (1.85 Å) B–B bond length. In the eleventh B site, B is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to one Mg and six B atoms. In the twelfth B site, B is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to one Mg, one Al, and six B atoms. In the thirteenth B site, B is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two Al and four B atoms. The B–B bond length is 2.01 Å. In the fourteenth B site, B is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to one Mg, one Al, and four B atoms. The B–B bond length is 1.98 Å.« less
