NaZn3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. Na(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent Zn(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and face-sharing NaZn12 cuboctahedra. Zn(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Na(1) atoms.
NaZn3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. Na(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent Zn(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and face-sharing NaZn12 cuboctahedra. There are six shorter (2.95 Å) and six longer (3.01 Å) Na(1)-Zn(1) bond lengths. Zn(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Na(1) atoms.
