Materials Data on Ce2C(NO)2 by Materials Project
Ce2C(NO)2 crystallizes in the trigonal P-3m1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ce3+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to three equivalent N3- and four equivalent O2- atoms. All Ce–N bond lengths are 2.69 Å. There are three shorter (2.34 Å) and one longer (2.36 Å) Ce–O bond lengths. C4+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent N3- atoms. Both C–N bond lengths are 1.24 Å. N3- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ce3+ and one C4+ atom. O2- is bonded to four equivalent Ce3+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OCe4 tetrahedra.
