Materials Data on Te(I3N)2 by Materials Project
N2TeI6 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four ammonia molecules and two TeI6 clusters. In each TeI6 cluster, Te4+ is bonded in an octahedral geometry to six I1- atoms. There are a spread of Te–I bond distances ranging from 2.93–2.95 Å. There are three inequivalent I1- sites. In the first I1- site, I1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Te4+ atom. In the second I1- site, I1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Te4+ atom. In the third I1- site, I1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Te4+ atom.
