Sr3FeN3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/m space group. Sr(1) is bonded to five equivalent N(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing SrN5 trigonal bipyramids. Fe(1) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent N(1) atoms. N(1) is bonded to five equivalent Sr(1) and one Fe(1) atom to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing NSr5Fe octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 20-44°.
Sr3FeN3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/m space group. Sr(1) is bonded to five equivalent N(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing SrN5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Sr(1)-N(1) bond distances ranging from 2.65-2.82 Å. Fe(1) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent N(1) atoms. All Fe(1)-N(1) bond lengths are 1.74 Å. N(1) is bonded to five equivalent Sr(1) and one Fe(1) atom to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing NSr5Fe octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 20-44°.
