SmI is Tungsten Carbide structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P-6m2 space group. Sm(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent I(1) atoms. I(1) is bonded to six equivalent Sm(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, face, and corner-sharing ISm6 pentagonal pyramids.
SmI is Tungsten Carbide structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P-6m2 space group. Sm(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent I(1) atoms. All Sm(1)-I(1) bond lengths are 3.23 Å. I(1) is bonded to six equivalent Sm(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, face, and corner-sharing ISm6 pentagonal pyramids.
