Coordination Polyhedra MCn (M Is s-Metal Atom) in Crystal Structures

Resumo

The crystallochemistry of compounds containing s-metal atoms in the carbon environment has been analyzed using the method of Voronoi–Dirichlet intersecting sectors and polyhedra. The chemical nature of the s metal has been found to affect the characteristics of the Voronoi–Dirichlet polyhedra. It is shown that the volume of Voronoi–Dirichlet polyhedron is practically independent of the coordination number of the s-metal atom.
