Materials Data on Rb2ZnN4 by Materials Project
Rb2ZnN4 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Rb1+ sites. In the first Rb1+ site, Rb1+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven N1- atoms. There are a spread of Rb–N bond distances ranging from 2.93–3.28 Å. In the second Rb1+ site, Rb1+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight N1- atoms. There are a spread of Rb–N bond distances ranging from 3.06–3.49 Å. Zn2+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four N1- atoms. There are a spread of Zn–N bond distances ranging from 1.91–1.95 Å. There are four inequivalent N1- sites. In the first N1- site, N1- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to four Rb1+ and one Zn2+ atom. In the second N1- site, N1- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to four Rb1+ and one Zn2+ atom. In the third N1- site, N1- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to three Rb1+ and one Zn2+ atom. In the fourth N1- site, N1- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to four Rb1+ and one Zn2+ atom.
