Materials Data on Na(RuO2)2 by Materials Project

NaRu2O4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Na1+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.37–2.67 Å. There are two inequivalent Ru+3.50+ sites. In the first Ru+3.50+ site, Ru+3.50+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing RuO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 45–54°. There are a spread of Ru–O bond distances ranging from 2.00–2.07 Å. In the second Ru+3.50+ site, Ru+3.50+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing RuO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 45–54°. There are a spread of Ru–O bond distances ranging from 2.01–2.07 Å. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Na1+ and three Ru+3.50+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to two equivalent Na1+ and three equivalent Ru+3.50+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing ONa2Ru3 square pyramids. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Na1+ and three Ru+3.50+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded to two equivalent Na1+ and three equivalent Ru+3.50+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing ONa2Ru3 trigonal bipyramids.
