CrAs is Molybdenum Carbide MAX Phase-like structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. Cr(1) is bonded to six equivalent As(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner, edge, and face-sharing CrAs6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 48°. As(1) is bonded to six equivalent Cr(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing AsCr6 pentagonal pyramids.
