RbBiO2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. Rb(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent O(1) atoms. Bi(1) is bonded in a distorted see-saw-like geometry to four equivalent O(1) atoms. O(1) is bonded to three equivalent Rb(1) and two equivalent Bi(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing ORb3Bi2 trigonal bipyramids.
RbBiO2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. Rb(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent O(1) atoms. There are a spread of Rb(1)-O(1) bond distances ranging from 2.86-3.04 Å. Bi(1) is bonded in a distorted see-saw-like geometry to four equivalent O(1) atoms. There are two shorter (2.10 Å) and two longer (2.33 Å) Bi(1)-O(1) bond lengths. O(1) is bonded to three equivalent Rb(1) and two equivalent Bi(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing ORb3Bi2 trigonal bipyramids.
