Cr3N2 is Corundum structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3c space group. Cr(1) is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four equivalent N(1) atoms. N(1) is bonded to six equivalent Cr(1) atoms to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing NCr6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 46-50°.
Cr3N2 is Corundum structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3c space group. Cr(1) is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four equivalent N(1) atoms. There are two shorter (1.91 Å) and two longer (2.00 Å) Cr(1)-N(1) bond lengths. N(1) is bonded to six equivalent Cr(1) atoms to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing NCr6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 46-50°.
