NaZnO3 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4_2/mbc space group. Na(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one O(1), one O(3), and three equivalent O(2) atoms. Zn(1) is bonded to one O(2), one O(3), and three equivalent O(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing ZnO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are three inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(3) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Na(1), one Zn(1), and two equivalent O(3) atoms. In the second O site, O(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Na(1) and three equivalent Zn(1) atoms. In the third O site, O(2) is bonded to three equivalent Na(1) and one Zn(1) atom to form corner-sharing ONa3Zn tetrahedra.
NaZnO3 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4_2/mbc space group. Na(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one O(1), one O(3), and three equivalent O(2) atoms. The Na(1)-O(1) bond length is 2.76 Å. The Na(1)-O(3) bond length is 2.54 Å. There is one shorter (2.29 Å) and two longer (2.30 Å) Na(1)-O(2) bond lengths. Zn(1) is bonded to one O(2), one O(3), and three equivalent O(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing ZnO5 trigonal bipyramids. The Zn(1)-O(2) bond length is 1.93 Å. The Zn(1)-O(3) bond length is 2.08 Å. There are two shorter (1.89 Å) and one longer (2.07 Å) Zn(1)-O(1) bond length. There are three inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(3) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Na(1), one Zn(1), and two equivalent O(3) atoms. Both O(3)-O(3) bond lengths are 1.86 Å. In the second O site, O(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Na(1) and three equivalent Zn(1) atoms. In the third O site, O(2) is bonded to three equivalent Na(1) and one Zn(1) atom to form corner-sharing ONa3Zn tetrahedra.
