Materials Data on MoPt by Materials Project
PtMo is beta-prime cadmium gold structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mo2+ is bonded to eight equivalent Pt2- atoms to form distorted MoPt8 hexagonal bipyramids that share corners with eighteen equivalent PtMo8Pt4 cuboctahedra, corners with eight equivalent MoPt8 hexagonal bipyramids, edges with four equivalent PtMo8Pt4 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve equivalent MoPt8 hexagonal bipyramids, faces with two equivalent PtMo8Pt4 cuboctahedra, and faces with six equivalent MoPt8 hexagonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Mo–Pt bond distances ranging from 2.77–2.85 Å. Pt2- is bonded to eight equivalent Mo2+ and four equivalent Pt2- atoms to form PtMo8Pt4 cuboctahedra that share corners with ten equivalent PtMo8Pt4 cuboctahedra, corners with eighteen equivalent MoPt8 hexagonal bipyramids, edges with six equivalent PtMo8Pt4 cuboctahedra, edges with four equivalent MoPt8 hexagonal bipyramids, faces with twelve equivalent PtMo8Pt4 cuboctahedra, and faces with two equivalent MoPt8 hexagonal bipyramids. There are two shorter (2.76 Å) and two longer (2.79 Å) Pt–Pt bond lengths.
