NiOBr crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmmm space group. Ni(1) is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four equivalent O(1) and two equivalent Br(1) atoms. O(1) is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent Ni(1) atoms. Br(1) is bonded to two equivalent Ni(1) and four equivalent Br(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing BrNi2Br4 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted.
NiOBr crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmmm space group. Ni(1) is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four equivalent O(1) and two equivalent Br(1) atoms. All Ni(1)-O(1) bond lengths are 2.01 Å. Both Ni(1)-Br(1) bond lengths are 3.00 Å. O(1) is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent Ni(1) atoms. Br(1) is bonded to two equivalent Ni(1) and four equivalent Br(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing BrNi2Br4 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted. There are two shorter (2.79 Å) and two longer (2.90 Å) Br(1)-Br(1) bond lengths.
