GdSO4F crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. Gd(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to one O(1), one O(3), four equivalent O(2), and two equivalent F(1) atoms. S(1) is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to one O(1), one O(3), and two equivalent O(2) atoms. There are three inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Gd(1) and one S(1) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Gd(1) and one S(1) atom. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Gd(1) and one S(1) atom. F(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Gd(1) atoms.
GdSO4F crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. Gd(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to one O(1), one O(3), four equivalent O(2), and two equivalent F(1) atoms. The Gd(1)-O(1) bond length is 2.38 Å. The Gd(1)-O(3) bond length is 2.39 Å. There are two shorter (2.37 Å) and two longer (2.61 Å) Gd(1)-O(2) bond lengths. There is one shorter (2.25 Å) and one longer (2.26 Å) Gd(1)-F(1) bond length. S(1) is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to one O(1), one O(3), and two equivalent O(2) atoms. The S(1)-O(1) bond length is 1.47 Å. The S(1)-O(3) bond length is 1.46 Å. Both S(1)-O(2) bond lengths are 1.51 Å. There are three inequivalent O sites.
