PtN2 crystallizes in the hexagonal P-6m2 space group. Pt(1) is bonded to six equivalent N(1) atoms to form distorted edge-sharing PtN6 pentagonal pyramids. N(1) is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to three equivalent Pt(1) and one N(1) atom.
PtN2 crystallizes in the hexagonal P-6m2 space group. Pt(1) is bonded to six equivalent N(1) atoms to form distorted edge-sharing PtN6 pentagonal pyramids. All Pt(1)-N(1) bond lengths are 2.30 Å. N(1) is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to three equivalent Pt(1) and one N(1) atom. The N(1)-N(1) bond length is 1.20 Å.
