Materials Data on YB4Rh by Materials Project
YRhB4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbam space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Y3+ is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to fourteen B+1.50- atoms. There are a spread of Y–B bond distances ranging from 2.63–2.78 Å. Rh3+ is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to ten B+1.50- atoms. There are a spread of Rh–B bond distances ranging from 2.26–2.43 Å. There are four inequivalent B+1.50- sites. In the first B+1.50- site, B+1.50- is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Y3+, two equivalent Rh3+, and three B+1.50- atoms. There is one shorter (1.79 Å) and two longer (1.86 Å) B–B bond length. In the second B+1.50- site, B+1.50- is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Y3+, two equivalent Rh3+, and three B+1.50- atoms. There is one shorter (1.75 Å) and one longer (1.78 Å) B–B bond length. In the third B+1.50- site, B+1.50- is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Y3+, two equivalent Rh3+, and three B+1.50- atoms. The B–B bond length is 1.77 Å. In the fourth B+1.50- site, B+1.50- is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Y3+, four equivalent Rh3+, and three B+1.50- atoms. The B–B bond length is 1.72 Å.
