Mn2F5 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. Mn(1) is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to two equivalent F(1), two equivalent F(3), and three equivalent F(2) atoms. There are three inequivalent F sites. In the first F site, F(1) is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent Mn(1) atoms. In the second F site, F(3) is bonded to four equivalent Mn(1) atoms to form distorted edge-sharing FMn4 tetrahedra. In the third F site, F(2) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent Mn(1) atoms.
Mn2F5 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. Mn(1) is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to two equivalent F(1), two equivalent F(3), and three equivalent F(2) atoms. There is one shorter (1.97 Å) and one longer (1.98 Å) Mn(1)-F(1) bond length. There is one shorter (2.20 Å) and one longer (2.48 Å) Mn(1)-F(3) bond length. There are a spread of Mn(1)-F(2) bond distances ranging from 2.03-2.44 Å. There are three inequivalent F sites. In the first F site, F(1) is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent Mn(1) atoms. In the second F site, F(3) is bonded to four equivalent Mn(1) atoms to form distorted edge-sharing FMn4 tetrahedra.
