ScCrO3 is Orthorhombic Perovskite structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. Sc(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to two equivalent O(1) and six equivalent O(2) atoms. Cr(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(1) and four equivalent O(2) atoms to form corner-sharing CrO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 42-46°. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded to two equivalent Sc(1) and two equivalent Cr(1) atoms to form corner-sharing OSc2Cr2 trigonal pyramids. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Sc(1) and two equivalent Cr(1) atoms.
ScCrO3 is Orthorhombic Perovskite structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. Sc(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to two equivalent O(1) and six equivalent O(2) atoms. There is one shorter (2.08 Å) and one longer (2.16 Å) Sc(1)-O(1) bond length. There are a spread of Sc(1)-O(2) bond distances ranging from 2.10-2.75 Å. Cr(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(1) and four equivalent O(2) atoms to form corner-sharing CrO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 42-46°. Both Cr(1)-O(1) bond lengths are 2.05 Å. There are two shorter (1.98 Å) and two longer (2.00 Å) Cr(1)-O(2) bond lengths. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded to two equivalent Sc(1) and two equivalent Cr(1) atoms to form corner-sharing OSc2Cr2 trigonal pyramids. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Sc(1) and two equivalent Cr(1) atoms.
