Th2CN is Caswellsilverite structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. Th(1) is bonded to three equivalent C(1) and three equivalent N(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing ThC3N3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted. C(1) is bonded to six equivalent Th(1) atoms to form CTh6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent N(1)Th6 octahedra, edges with six equivalent C(1)Th6 octahedra, and edges with six equivalent N(1)Th6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted. N(1) is bonded to six equivalent Th(1) atoms to form NTh6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent C(1)Th6 octahedra, edges with six equivalent C(1)Th6 octahedra, and edges with six equivalent N(1)Th6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted.
