Materials Data on Mn6Ga2CN by Materials Project
(Mn3Ga)4(C)2N2 is High-temperature superconductor-derived structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional and consists of one ammonia molecule, one methane molecule, and one Mn3Ga framework. In the Mn3Ga framework, there are three inequivalent Mn sites. In the first Mn site, Mn is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Ga atoms. Both Mn–Ga bond lengths are 2.36 Å. In the second Mn site, Mn is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Ga atoms. Both Mn–Ga bond lengths are 2.34 Å. In the third Mn site, Mn is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Ga atoms. Both Mn–Ga bond lengths are 2.35 Å. Ga is bonded to six Mn atoms to form corner-sharing GaMn6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–5°.
