VF3 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. V(1) is bonded to two equivalent F(2) and four equivalent F(1) atoms to form corner-sharing VF6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 34-38°. There are two inequivalent F sites. In the first F site, F(1) is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent V(1) atoms. In the second F site, F(2) is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent V(1) atoms.
VF3 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. V(1) is bonded to two equivalent F(2) and four equivalent F(1) atoms to form corner-sharing VF6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 34-38°. Both V(1)-F(2) bond lengths are 1.98 Å. There are two shorter (1.97 Å) and two longer (1.98 Å) V(1)-F(1) bond lengths. There are two inequivalent F sites. In the first F site, F(1) is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent V(1) atoms. In the second F site, F(2) is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent V(1) atoms.
