LiDyF2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4_1/amd space group. Li(1) is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent F(1) atoms. Dy(1) is bonded to six equivalent F(1) atoms to form distorted edge-sharing DyF6 octahedra. F(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Li(1) and three equivalent Dy(1) atoms.
LiDyF2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4_1/amd space group. Li(1) is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent F(1) atoms. All Li(1)-F(1) bond lengths are 2.50 Å. Dy(1) is bonded to six equivalent F(1) atoms to form distorted edge-sharing DyF6 octahedra. There are two shorter (2.35 Å) and four longer (2.38 Å) Dy(1)-F(1) bond lengths. F(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Li(1) and three equivalent Dy(1) atoms.
