Materials Data on LiCNO by Materials Project
Li(OCN) crystallizes in the trigonal R3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded to three equivalent N3- and three equivalent O2- atoms to form edge-sharing LiN3O3 octahedra. All Li–N bond lengths are 2.18 Å. All Li–O bond lengths are 2.28 Å. C4+ is bonded in a linear geometry to one N3- and one O2- atom. The C–N bond length is 1.19 Å. The C–O bond length is 1.23 Å. N3- is bonded to three equivalent Li1+ and one C4+ atom to form distorted corner-sharing NLi3C tetrahedra. O2- is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to three equivalent Li1+ and one C4+ atom.
