Ba Li Os Os
LiBaOs2 crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. Li(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ba(1) and one Os(2) atom. There are a spread of Li(1)-Ba(1) bond distances ranging from 2.33-3.08 Å. The Li(1)-Os(2) bond length is 3.38 Å. Ba(1) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to four equivalent Li(1) and one Os(1) atom. The Ba(1)-Os(1) bond length is 1.95 Å. There are two inequivalent Os sites. In the first Os site, Os(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ba(1) and one Os(2) atom. The Os(1)-Os(2) bond length is 2.28 Å. In the second Os site, Os(2) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Li(1) and one Os(1) atom.
