Materials Data on Cd2Ru(CN)6 by Materials Project
Ru(Cd(CN)3)2 crystallizes in the trigonal P-3 space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of one ruthenium molecule and one Cd(CN)3 sheet oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. In the Cd(CN)3 sheet, Cd2+ is bonded to six equivalent N3- atoms to form edge-sharing CdN6 octahedra. There are three shorter (2.40 Å) and three longer (2.41 Å) Cd–N bond lengths. C+1.33+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N3- atom. The C–N bond length is 1.18 Å. N3- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Cd2+ and one C+1.33+ atom.
