LiNiN crystallizes in the hexagonal P-6m2 space group. Li(1) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent N(1) atoms. Ni(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent N(1) atoms. N(1) is bonded to three equivalent Li(1) and two equivalent Ni(1) atoms to form corner-sharing NLi3Ni2 trigonal bipyramids.
LiNiN crystallizes in the hexagonal P-6m2 space group. Li(1) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent N(1) atoms. All Li(1)-N(1) bond lengths are 2.09 Å. Ni(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent N(1) atoms. Both Ni(1)-N(1) bond lengths are 1.71 Å. N(1) is bonded to three equivalent Li(1) and two equivalent Ni(1) atoms to form corner-sharing NLi3Ni2 trigonal bipyramids.
