“…In addition, recent studies have shown that the D parameter, used to describe the degree of off-centering distortion in the octahedra, is also considered to be an important parameter to measure the distortion of the inorganic octahedra, and D can be calculated as: 38,39
Here, a i and b i refer to the short and long metal–Cl bond distances in the same direction, respectively. By comparing the calculation results of these parameters, we observed that, in (TMEDA) 3 (Sb 0.5 Bi 0.5 ) 2 Cl 12 ·H 2 O, the bond-length distortion λ oct and the degree of off-centering distortion D of the inorganic octahedra are significantly larger, and the bond-angle distortion σ 2 is slightly smaller than that of (TMEDA) 3 Bi 2 Cl 12 ·H 2 O (Table 2).…”
