description: Y6Ge2O13F3 crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are six inequivalent Y sites. In the first Y site, Y is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to seven O and one F atom. There are a spread of Y–O bond distances ranging from 2.29–2.44 Å. The Y–F bond length is 2.53 Å. In the second Y site, Y is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to six O and two F atoms. There are a spread of Y–O bond distances ranging from 2.27–2.42 Å. Both Y–F bond lengths are 2.50 Å. In the third Y site, Y is bonded to six O and one F atom to form distorted YO6F pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with two equivalent GeO5 trigonal bipyramids and an edgeedge with one GeO5 trigonal bipyramid. There are a spread of Y–O bond distances ranging from 2.23–2.36 Å. The Y–F bond length is 2.39 Å. In the fourth Y site, Y is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to five O and two F atoms. There are a spread of Y–O bond distances ranging from 2.31–2.39 Å. There are one shorter (2.26 Å) and one longer (2.35 Å) Y–F bond lengths. In the fifth Y site, Y is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to six O and one F atom. There are a spread of Y–O bond distances ranging from 2.32–2.39 Å. The Y–F bond length is 2.27 Å. In the sixth Y site, Y is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to five O and two F atoms. There are a spread of Y–O bond distances ranging from 2.29–2.44 Å. There are one shorter (2.24 Å) and one longer (2.39 Å) Y–F bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Ge sites. In the first Ge site, Ge is bonded to five O atoms to form distorted GeO5 trigonal bipyramids that share an edgeedge with one YO6F pentagonal bipyramid.
