Materials Data on Ni(SO6)2 by Materials Project

NiO6(SO3)2 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two sulfur trioxide molecules and one NiO6 cluster. In the NiO6 cluster, Ni is bonded in an octahedral geometry to six O atoms. There are a spread of Ni–O bond distances ranging from 1.74–1.93 Å. There are three inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Ni and one O atom. The O–O bond length is 1.30 Å. In the second O site, O is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ni atom. In the third O site, O is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Ni and one O atom.
