Materials Data on Ba2LaCl7 by Materials Project
Ba2LaCl7 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ba2+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine Cl1- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–Cl bond distances ranging from 3.12–3.49 Å. La3+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine Cl1- atoms. There are a spread of La–Cl bond distances ranging from 2.91–3.10 Å. There are four inequivalent Cl1- sites. In the first Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded to three equivalent Ba2+ and one La3+ atom to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing ClBa3La tetrahedra. In the second Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ba2+ and one La3+ atom. In the third Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba2+ and two equivalent La3+ atoms. In the fourth Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Ba2+ and one La3+ atom.
