Title: Materials Data on Ag4Hg4S4BrCl3 by Materials Project

Abstract

Ag4Hg4S4BrCl3 crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Ag1+ sites. In the first Ag1+ site, Ag1+ is bonded to two equivalent S2- and two Cl1- atoms to form distorted AgS2Cl2 trigonal pyramids that share corners with eight HgS2Cl4 octahedra, corners with two equivalent AgS2Cl2 trigonal pyramids, edges with two equivalent HgS2Br2Cl2 octahedra, and an edgeedge with one AgS2Cl2 trigonal pyramid. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 45–81°. There are one shorter (2.54 Å) and one longer (2.56 Å) Ag–S bond lengths. There are one shorter (2.55 Å) and one longer (3.14 Å) Ag–Cl bond lengths. In the second Ag1+ site, Ag1+ is bonded to two equivalent S2- and two Cl1- atoms to form distorted AgS2Cl2 trigonal pyramids that share corners with eight HgS2Br2Cl2 octahedra, corners with two equivalent AgS2Cl2 trigonal pyramids, edges with two equivalent HgS2Cl4 octahedra, and an edgeedge with one AgS2Cl2 trigonal pyramid. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 45–80°. There are one shorter (2.54 Å) and one longer (2.56 Å) Ag–S bond lengths. There are one shorter (2.54 Å) and one longer (3.13 Å) Ag–Cl bond lengths.
