Materials Data on InP2H9(NO4)2 by Materials Project

InP2HO8(NH4)2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Fdd2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional and consists of sixteen ammonium molecules and one InP2HO8 framework. In the InP2HO8 framework, In3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form InO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of In–O bond distances ranging from 2.13–2.20 Å. P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent InO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 29–42°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.54–1.58 Å. H1+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent O2- atoms. Both H–O bond lengths are 1.21 Å. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one In3+ and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one P5+ and one H1+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one In3+ and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one In3+ and one P5+ atom.
