K3CO3F crystallizes in the trigonal R-3c space group. K(1) is bonded to five equivalent O(1) and two equivalent F(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, face, and corner-sharing KO5F2 pentagonal bipyramids. C(1) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent O(1) atoms. O(1) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to five equivalent K(1) and one C(1) atom. F(1) is bonded to six equivalent K(1) atoms to form corner-sharing FK6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 25°.
K3CO3F crystallizes in the trigonal R-3c space group. K(1) is bonded to five equivalent O(1) and two equivalent F(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, face, and corner-sharing KO5F2 pentagonal bipyramids. There are a spread of K(1)-O(1) bond distances ranging from 2.81-3.05 Å. Both K(1)-F(1) bond lengths are 2.64 Å. C(1) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent O(1) atoms. All C(1)-O(1) bond lengths are 1.31 Å. O(1) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to five equivalent K(1) and one C(1) atom. F(1) is bonded to six equivalent K(1) atoms to form corner-sharing FK6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 25°.
