Materials Data on NiP2W by Materials Project
WNiP2 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. W4+ is bonded to six equivalent P3- atoms to form edge-sharing WP6 octahedra. All W–P bond lengths are 2.49 Å. Ni2+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent P3- atoms. All Ni–P bond lengths are 2.32 Å. P3- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to three equivalent W4+ and three equivalent Ni2+ atoms.
