VC is Molybdenum Carbide MAX Phase-like structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3mc space group. V(1) is bonded to six equivalent C(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing VC6 pentagonal pyramids. C(1) is bonded to six equivalent V(1) atoms to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing CV6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 48°.
VC is Molybdenum Carbide MAX Phase-like structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3mc space group. V(1) is bonded to six equivalent C(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing VC6 pentagonal pyramids. There are three shorter (2.08 Å) and three longer (2.09 Å) V(1)-C(1) bond lengths. C(1) is bonded to six equivalent V(1) atoms to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing CV6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 48°.
