PbO2 is Baddeleyite-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. Pb(1) is bonded to three equivalent O(2) and four equivalent O(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing PbO7 hexagonal pyramids. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(2) is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three equivalent Pb(1) atoms. In the second O site, O(1) is bonded to four equivalent Pb(1) atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OPb4 tetrahedra.
PbO2 is Baddeleyite-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. Pb(1) is bonded to three equivalent O(2) and four equivalent O(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing PbO7 hexagonal pyramids. All Pb(1)-O(2) bond lengths are 2.23 Å. There are a spread of Pb(1)-O(1) bond distances ranging from 2.28-2.36 Å. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(2) is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three equivalent Pb(1) atoms. In the second O site, O(1) is bonded to four equivalent Pb(1) atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OPb4 tetrahedra.
