ThNCl is Matlockite structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/nmm space group. Th(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent N(1) and five equivalent Cl(1) atoms. N(1) is bonded to four equivalent Th(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing NTh4 tetrahedra. Cl(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Th(1) atoms.
ThNCl is Matlockite structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/nmm space group. Th(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent N(1) and five equivalent Cl(1) atoms. All Th(1)-N(1) bond lengths are 2.35 Å. There is one shorter (3.19 Å) and four longer (3.26 Å) Th(1)-Cl(1) bond lengths. N(1) is bonded to four equivalent Th(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing NTh4 tetrahedra. Cl(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Th(1) atoms.
