Materials Data on KNa2(PO3)3 by Materials Project

KNa2(PO3)3 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. K1+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to ten O2- atoms. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.74–3.48 Å. There are two inequivalent Na1+ sites. In the first Na1+ site, Na1+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five O2- atoms. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.38–2.57 Å. In the second Na1+ site, Na1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form NaO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra and an edgeedge with one NaO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.42–2.60 Å. There are three inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent NaO6 octahedra and corners with two PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 49–54°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.49–1.64 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one NaO6 octahedra and corners with two PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 54°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.49–1.65 Å. In the third P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent NaO6 octahedra and corners with two PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 43–57°. There is two shorter (1.50 Å) and two longer (1.64 Å) P–O bond length. There are nine inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one K1+, two Na1+, and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent K1+ and two P5+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one K1+ and two P5+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one K1+ and two P5+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one K1+, two equivalent Na1+, and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one K1+, two Na1+, and one P5+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to three Na1+ and one P5+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one K1+, one Na1+, and one P5+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two equivalent K1+, one Na1+, and one P5+ atom.
