Data-Mining Element Charges in Inorganic Materials

preprint2020arXivOpen access

Abstract

Oxidation states are well-established in chemical science teaching and research. We data-mine more than 168,000 crystallographic reports to find an optimal allocation of oxidation states to each element. In doing so we uncover discrepancies between text-book chemistry and reported charge states observed in materials. We go on to show how the oxidation states we recommend can significantly facilitate materials discovery and heuristic design of novel inorganic compounds.
