NiF3 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3c space group. Ni(1) is bonded to six equivalent F(1) atoms to form corner-sharing NiF6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 40°. F(1) is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent Ni(1) atoms.
NiF3 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3c space group. Ni(1) is bonded to six equivalent F(1) atoms to form corner-sharing NiF6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 40°. All Ni(1)-F(1) bond lengths are 1.86 Å. F(1) is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent Ni(1) atoms.
