KPrF4

F. Werner, M. Weil and F. Kubel

Abstract: KPrF4, potassium praseodymium tetrafluoride, is isotypic with [beta]-KCeF4 and KSmF4. The structure is composed of a three-dimensional framework of [PrF9] and [KF7] polyhedra whose corresponding coordination geometries might be described as a tricapped and a monocapped trigonal prism, respectively. The [KF7] polyhedra form buckled 2[infinity][KF1/1F2/2F4/4] layers parallel to (001), which are connected perpendicularly by the intermediate Pr atoms along [001].
