Materials Data on SnCl2 by Materials Project
SnCl2 is Cotunnite structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is one-dimensional and consists of four SnCl2 ribbons oriented in the (0, 1, 0) direction. Sn2+ is bonded to five Cl1- atoms to form distorted edge-sharing SnCl5 square pyramids. There are a spread of Sn–Cl bond distances ranging from 2.63–3.13 Å. There are two inequivalent Cl1- sites. In the first Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a water-like geometry to two equivalent Sn2+ atoms. In the second Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Sn2+ atoms.
