Materials Data on ThN2 by Materials Project
ThN2 is Fluorite structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Th4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent N2- atoms. There are six shorter (2.46 Å) and two longer (2.47 Å) Th–N bond lengths. N2- is bonded to four equivalent Th4+ atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing NTh4 tetrahedra.
